Fibromyalgia, Fatigue, and Pain

Learn Natural Remedies and Treatments for Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue

If you suffer from unexplained pain and ache, poor non-restorative sleep, extreme fatigue, and a host of other maladies, just know you are not alone. Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS) and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) plague thousands of men and women. Slowly, the medical community is gaining widespread acceptance of these two conditions.

Studies suggest that Fibromyalgia Syndrome and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome are actually the same illness. Also, there is increasing evidence that Fibromyalgia is actually a disease - a disease of the central nervous system.

I, too, suffer from Fibromyalgia. However, I believe mine is a mild form compared to the thousands who suffer from this progressive disease. In sophomore year of high school, I was learning the turns for discus throwing and overturned, landing "Indian style" on my butt! A severely sprained ankle later turned into a bad lower lumbar (back). In late 1998, I contracted Epstein-Barr (mono) and strep throat, both of which I never had before or since.

Both a physical trauma and an immune deficiency as a result of a virus infection (like Epstein-Barr) can be a cause of Fibromyalgia Syndrome and Chronic Fatigue Sydrome. Another very probable cause is an underlying sleep disorder.
