Fibromyalgia

What is Fibromyalgia?

Fibromyalgia is a condition that affects the central nervous system (your brain and spinal cord) and the autonomic nervous system (nerve fibres throughout your body that control involuntary processes like digestion and body temperature). Fibromyalgia causes nerve fibres to be more sensitive and more active than usual, which can cause pain, fatigue, problems sleeping, and mood disorders.
