Everyone knows what it’s like to feel sore and exhausted from time
to time. But when these symptoms persist (especially with no apparent
cause) that could be an indication of fibromyalgia.
The exact cause of fibromyalgia is not known, but many doctors believe
this condition is related to an over-expression of pain within the central
nervous system. There’s no single diagnostic test for fibromyalgia.
Instead, a doctor makes the diagnosis by ruling out other conditions and
learning about a person’s medical history.
