Information About Fibromyalgia
This site contains information about fibromyalgia.
http://www.mamashealth.com/fibromyalgia.asp

Extractions: What is it? Fibromyalgia (fi-bro-my-AL-ja) syndrome (FMS) is a chronic disorder characterized by extreme pain and tenderness in multiple muscles and joints. The term Fibromyalgia means pain in fibrous and muscular tissues. The pain occurs in areas where the muscles attach to bone or ligaments and is similar to the pain of arthritis. The joints are not affected, so they are not deformed, nor do they deteriorate as they may in arthritis. The worst part about fibromyalgia is the pain is not localized to specific joints. The pain is felt "all over," spreading out from the spine over large areas of the body, especially in the lower back and arms. The pain can vary from muscle twitching to a burning sensation. People with fibromyalgia are susceptible to other chronic painful conditions such as osteoarthritis or migraine . The pain can vary, depending on the time of day, weather changes, physical activity, and the presence of stressful situations. Fibromyalgia was originally named fibrositis. Fibromyalgia pain continues throughout a persons lifetime.

http://www.aafp.org/afp/20001001/1575.html

Extractions: on page 1492. F ibromyalgia is a rheumatologic condition characterized by spontaneous, widespread soft tissue pain, sleep disturbance, fatigue and extensively distributed areas of tenderness known as tender points. Estimates of prevalence are 3.4 percent for women and 0.5 percent for men. Fibromyalgia is characterized by widespread soft tissue pain, disturbed sleep, fatigue and diffuse tender points. Fibromyalgia can be perplexing to patients and physicians because of the lack of associated abnormalities on readily available diagnostic tests. Despite this, recent findings about the pathogenesis and pathophysiology of fibromyalgia have dispelled the belief that the disorder is psychosomatic. While no laboratory test can confirm fibromyalgia, most patients present with a history of widespread pain, physical findings and comorbid conditions. With experience, the disorder may be diagnosed with confidence on initial presentation or after a period of observation and minimal diagnostic testing. The family physician is ideally suited to treat fibromyalgia because its management calls for a longitudinal relationship, a willingness to try different therapeutic modalities and an understanding of the interrelationship of the biopsychosocial aspects of health.

Extractions: This site is unique in that it provide a treatment approach for battling these illnesses. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) involves feeling fatigued for much of the day, and lasting more than 6mths. Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS) involves soreness in the soft tissues that lasts during much of the day. CFS, FMS and GWS are related, since many people in these groups have overlapping symptoms, and we will collectively refer to them as CFS/FMS. To see how similar GWS is to CFS, click here to view a comparison of symptoms in approximately 650 Desert Storm veterans suffering from Desert Storm Illness with symptoms of CFIDS, as noted in REFERENCE #9 . The USA Center For Disease Control (CDC) reports that CFS affects over 500,000 Americans as noted in REFERENCE #6

Frankleavitt
Provides information on cognitive problems experienced by patients with fibromyalgia, which is characterized by memory loss and mental confusion.
http://www.webspawner.com/users/frankleavitt/

Extractions: Our clinical and research experience suggests a way of unraveling the mysterious discrepancy between patient conviction and neuropsychological findings. Instead of the flaw residing in the patient complaint, it may well be that these patients as a group are being held to the wrong standards. Testing logic often takes the following form: if memory deficits fail to be demonstrated by scores on standard measures of memory that operationally define level of impairment, then fibromyalgia patients are overestimating or overplaying the severity of their memory decline. The logic is flawed because it does not account fully for the many ways memory failures arise and overlooks shortcomings in the testing process. A process prominently linked to memory impairment is dissociation. Dissociation is a failure to integrate experiences that normally go together. Short-term memory complaints of dissociatives are well known to mimic the complaints of patients with fibromyalgia that we now refer to as fibrofog . Level of dissociation fluctuates in intensity throughout the day. Variation is likely to be influenced by daily stress. With rising intensity, sensory experience is transformed into haze like sensations leaving the patients feeling as if enveloped in a fog. At more severe intensity, lapses in memory are likely to occur leaving the individual unable to remember what was said, done or planned. But cognitive testing at levels of dissociative intensity (low) that are less apt to affect memory should yield normal performance.
