Symptoms of FibromyalgiaEarly to rise and late to bed!

Sounds familiar, right? With your hectic schedule, you often have to make peace with insufficient rest. The not-so-fresh feeling that this leaves you with the next day soon becomes a part of us.

Yet, one day you are unable to beat the long-standing weakness. The aches do not go away and the pain does not stop. The painkillers fail and multivitamins do not seem to work. The Doctor ponders and so do you. Your thyroid tests are normal and so is the iron in your blood. It’s not depression or anxiety that is hampering you from enjoying your sleep. Your Doctor tests for everything including rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren’s syndrome, lupus, multiple sclerosis and myasthenia gravis, but the offender is never caught.

Then your Rheumatologist examines and interviews you, and he catches the culprit, its – Fibromyalgia.
