Just a Pain or Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is a complex condition that affects many people.
Symptoms can include widespread musculoskeletal pain together with fatigue, insomnia, concentration loss, memory problems, and hypersensitivity. This condition is also accompanied by sensitive trigger points located near the joints, even a light touch to them causes pain. All of these may be very frustrating and depressing.

Why Do You Have Fibromyalgia
The peculiarity of fibromyalgia is that it is not actually a disease, it is more like a set of symptoms. It is assumed that fibromyalgia is caused by an imbalanced sympathetic nervous system functioning after a traumatic event. As a result, your nervous system interprets normal signals as pain, although no actual damage was done to your body.
