Are you plagued by chronic muscle pain, general sleeplessness and regular fatigue? Did you know that this never-ending muscle pain and unexplained insomnia can be because e of ac condition doctors call fibromyalgia? Going by the facts, about 6% of the world population suffers from the disease with 75-90% of the cases being reported in women. Fibromyalgia can be brutal with excruciating pain spreading from head to toe. Often the pain is so high that the natural pain control system of the body fails.
The Spinal fluid of every human being contains opioid-like endorphins called Enkephalins which are our natural painkillers. They significantly bring down the amount of pain that we feel and increase our threshold of withstanding pain. It has been observed that in people with Fibromyalgia, the pain is so severe almost all the time that the normal levels of enkephalin in them is almost four times the levels of a healthy human being.
Fibromyalgia is commonly sighted with symptoms like early mornings fatigue, dizziness, and difficulties in focusing vision, painful cramps, palpitation and shortness of breath. The following is a list of symptoms that point to Fibromyalgia-

Medical practitioners can do no more than prescribe medicine that eases the pain. They prescribe non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or aspirin.
