symptoms of Fibromyalgia...

What Is FM?
The term fibromyalgia first appeared in 1990, when the American College of
Rheumatology created it.
“The cause of the condition, simply described as chronic pain, continues to
baffle the medical community today,’ says Laurel Freeman, American Massage
Therapy Association (AMTA) president. Freeman specializes in massage for
chronic pain says she has had wonderful results decreasing FM discomfort and
pain of her clients.
However, FM is anything but simple.
“FM is not a disease, it´s a syndrome,’ explains Denise Borrelli, Ph.D., a
massage therapist who wrote her doctoral dissertation on FM. “It´s not just
one thing, it is a variety of things—scleroderma, arthritis, Reynaud's
disease, etc.—pulled together, which is what makes it so hard to diagnose;
it mirrors so many diseases.’
As a result of the abnormal sensory processing found in those with FM, the
list of associated syndromes include: chronic fatigue, restless leg syndrome
(numbness, tingling, itching and muscle crawling in the lower limbs, which
may extend to the arms and scalp), irritable bowel syndrome, irritable
bladder syndrome, cognitive dysfunction, cold intolerance, multiple
sensitivities (amplified sensations that lower the tolerance of adverse
weather, loud noises, bright lights, and other sensory overloads),
dizziness, and neurally mediated hypotension accompanied by low blood
pressure that does not go up normally on standing or on exercise, according
to the NFA.
