Fibromyalgia (FM)

FM is a chronic condition that gives rise to widespread pain with associated fatigue, depression and disrupted sleep. It is present in about 2-8% of the population - more common in women. It can be significantly disabling. The underlying cause is unknown but believed to be a result of dysfunctional pain pathways in the brain. FM can develop at any age, even in childhood, and there is often a family history of chronic pain.

What are common symptoms? 


  • Common symptoms usually include persistent dull muscle aches and pain at multiple areas of the body including neck, back, shoulders, hips, pelvis and abdomen.
  • Associated symptoms include fatigue, mood disturbances including depression, disruptive sleep, memory and concentration problems and gastrointestinal dysfunction.

 

What are current treatments?


  • There is no single effective treatment and treatment can be challenging
  • Best approach combines pharmacological and nonpharmacological treatments
  • Pharmacological treatment can be helpful in alleviating some symptoms but rarely provides meaningful improvements without adopting self-management strategies
  • Tailored multi-modal treatment is the best approach that includes education, graduated exercise, manual and trigger point therapies, cognitive behavioural interventions, stress management, relaxation and other self-management strategies
