It can absolutely cause sleep disorders. Fatigue in fact is an index symptom. Also, as it's painful, you can expect sleep disorders which in turn exacerbate the problem you described. As to pathologic sleeping disorder breathing patterns, I never heard of this symptom related to fibromyalgia. This symptom may relate to another disorder altogether.

Can Fibromyalgia cause inflammation of joints?
Fibromyalgia does not cause inflammation in the joints, but that does not mean that those suffering from Fibromyalgia may not also have inflammation. Inflammation can be caused by any number of things from food sensitivities to arthritis and autoimmune disorders. Many of those suffering from Fibromyalgia also suffer from a co-existing condition that causes inflammation. The most common causes of joint inflammation with symptoms that often overlap Fibromyalgia are Rheumatoid arthritis and Lupus. Other types of arthritis including gouty arthritis and psoriatic arthritis also have symptoms that overlap Fibromyalgia. Because something as simple as a food sensitivity can cause inflammation in the body, it can be very difficult to pinpoint the cause of inflammation when a specific diagnosis is not available.
