Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia

FMS (fibromyalgia syndrome) is a musculoskeletal pain and fatigue
disorder with an unknown cause. The term Fibromyalgia means
pain in the muscles, ligaments, and tendons ­ the soft fibrous
tissues in the body. Although there is no known cure, there are
things that can be done to produce fibromyalgia pain relief.

FMS symptoms patients always report that "they ache all over".
Frequently the pain is reported to be similar to that of a
strained muscle or a burning sensation. FMS affects women more
than it does men and it strikes people of all ages.
