Fibromyalgia - Can ANMC Help?
What is Fibromyalgia?
Fibromyalgia is a painful chronic condition that significantly affects one’s life. An estimated 4 million adults in the US live with this condition but there are still many mysteries of it that make dealing with it difficult.
Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition that causes widespread regions of pain, which feel like a constant dull ache. It is typically characterized by feelings of numbness, burning, and tingling. This pain is accompanied by trouble sleeping, fatigue, and oftentimes emotional and mental distress. Symptoms of fibromyalgia include:
Tiredness
Depression
Anxiety
Nonrestorative sleep
Tenderness or extreme sensitivity
Headaches & Migraines
Stiffness all over the body
Restless leg syndrome
Numbness, tingling, and coldness in the hands & feet
Impaired cognitive function or brain fog
Face or jaw pain including TMJ
Digestive problems
The standard approaches to care for fibromyalgia include appropriate exercises, therapy, stress management techniques, pain relief medication, antidepressants, and antiseizure medications aimed at providing relief from the symptoms of this condition. However, these approaches may not be right for everyone.
