If you are feeling widespread muscle pain throughout your body, disturbed sleep, fatigue, or persistent pain that stops you from functioning normally, you might be suffering from Fibromyalgia.

Fibromyalgia is a common disease that affects middle-aged women and those with rheumatoid arthritis or other autoimmune diseases.

People with this condition have widespread pain in their muscles and joints, but the joints move normally and are not swollen. Instead, they have multiple sore areas (called tender points) that feel like bruises over the upper chest, back, arms and legs.

Early screening and correct diagnosis can lead to treatment and management of symptoms to prevent persistent pain from worsening. Getting the right treatment can help alleviate your pain and fatigue, giving you a better quality of life.
