\n The checklist of
\n
\n fibromyalgia
\n <\/a>
\n symptoms offered below isn\u2019t meant as a means for self-diagnosis.\u00a0 Because there is no cure or cause yet identified for
\n
\n fibromyalgia
\n <\/a>
\n , also known as FMS or Fibromyalgia Syndrome, early diagnosis and treatment for fibromyalgia symptoms has offered sufferers better relief in the long run.\n <\/p>\n

\n Find a physician or practitioner who is well-versed in the care and treatment of these fibromyalgia symptoms and treatment of the syndrome so that you\u2019ll get the best possible treatment and relief of your symptoms.\n <\/p>\n

\n What Causes Fibromyalgia?
\n <\/h2>\n

\n Exactly what causes fibromyalgia remains unknown. Those with musculoskeletal conditions such as arthritis or lupus are thought to be at a higher risk of developing Fibromyalgia.\n <\/p>\n

\n Some research studies suggest that fibromyalgia may have a genetic link. Other studies have shown a connection between
\n
\n physical and emotional trauma
\n <\/strong>
\n and the development of Fibromyalgia symptoms. There is also evidence of
\n
\n abnormal levels of pain transmitters
\n <\/strong>
\n which cause nerve receptors to communicate to the brain that there is pain when there is no obvious reason for it.\n <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n Some researchers are inclined to believe that Fibromyalgia is viral in origin such as chronic fatigue and Epstein barr. Others believe that it is directly related to
\n
\n high levels of toxins in the body\u2019s
\n <\/strong>
\n
\n delicate system
\n <\/strong>
\n which can lead to chemical changes.\n <\/p>\n

\n Recently a
\n
\n connection between sleep disorders and Fibromyalgia
\n <\/strong>
\n has been established since
\n
\n people suffering from Fibromyalgia
\n <\/strong>
\n lack delta wave sleep which is the deepest and most relaxing sleep of all. When deprived of this fundamentally restorative sleep, disturbances in the delicate biological rhythms
\n
\n severely compromise systemic health.
\n <\/strong>\n<\/p>\n

\n
\n Food allergies
\n <\/strong>
\n have also been linked to Fibromyalgia symptoms. Specific foods which are known to cause sensitivities that can
\n
\n aggravate fibromyalgia symptoms
\n <\/strong>
\n include shellfish, milk, citrus fruits, wheat, corn, and tomatoes among others.\n <\/p>\n

\n Use the list below to help you discern if you MIGHT be suffering from fibromyalgia, but don\u2019t overlook seeking the advice of a physician.\u00a0 Because fibromyalgia symptoms are overlapping and affect several bodily systems, they can also be indicative of another problem or disease.\u00a0 While you might be tempted to use this checklist to self-evaluate, you may also be overlooking other symptoms that lead to a misdiagnosis.\u00a0 This mistake can prove fatal if the alternative disease could have been successfully treated if found early.\n <\/p>\n

\n The listed symptoms are common to fibromyalgia but they don\u2019t all happen to one individual.\u00a0 Each person can suffer the syndrome in a different manner and fibromyalgia symptoms can change over time.\n <\/p>\n

\n These are fibromyalgia symptoms that have appeared to be more common to sufferers:
