Symptoms of Fibromyalgia
Around 3.7 million people in America are diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, 70-90% of these are women between the ages of 20 and 50. This number is very likely a low number as Fibromyalgia recently became a diagnosable syndrome in 1987, yet doctors were relunctant to put the name Fibromyalgia on a person until the late 1990’s. Many people do not know the Symptoms of Fibromyalgia and therefore do not know what to tell the doctor they are experiencing so it can be diagnosed, Fibromyalgia Symptoms can feel like normal everyday pain. Especially if a person has been overly stressed, in an accident, had a traumatic experience, or had an injury. A person may feel the pain of these issues, but the pain may actually be Fibromyalgia Pain. Since there are no professional given causes to Fibromyalgia, doctors seem to not diagnose it until all other options have been ruled out.
