Your Fibromyalgia symptoms will often vary over time. You may have days where you don't feel any symptoms followed by days or weeks of what is commonly called a "flare", where your symptoms increase in severity for a period of time.

Sounds like an Achilles tendon injury.

Tender points are used by form of physical examination where the doctor applies pressure lightly to different parts of the body, this is usually painful for fibromyalgia patients.

This syndrome presents with a variety of neurological type smptoms like vertigo, facial pain, or sinus pain. It seems to come from misalignments of the cranial bones and/or misalignments in the cervical spine putting pressure on the nerves. It is often referred to as Barre-Lieou syndrome.

To "diffuse" something means to "spread it out". Therefore, to say that someone's "legs ache diffusely" would mean that the pain is spread out through her legs, rather than only in one area. "Diffusely" would be another way of saying "all over".

Fibromyalgia is a physical illness. The pain comes from tender points and it doesn't take much to irritate them. I really don't see why some people think it's a mental illness. I feel the pain from fibromyalgia 24/7. I've had the symptoms of it since i was 5 yrs old, I was diagnosed last year. Im 15 now so 10 years of this pain, I don't see why people would think I'm just making it up. It really does hurt.

At the present time there is no approved diet or explicit nutritional recommendations for people with fibromyalgia. Yet this should hardly be read as an indication that diet can play no part in either helping or harming those suffering from the disorder.

The best advice is to remember that you are what you eat, according to the old saying, and that food choices influence how you feel. Maintaining a healthy, well-balanced diet full of plenty of fruit and vegetables and low in the likes of saturated fat will make you feel better, physically and mentally, as well as help you to avoid developing any other health problems. It may or may not alleviate any of your symptoms, but it certainly won't make them any worse. The same can not be said for an unhealthy diet, especially one in which you eat foods that can exacerbate symptoms.

Here are some suggested dietary choices, but keep in mind that these are suggestions culled from a variety of sources with little to no clinical evidence supporting them at best, many are anecdotal. The most prudent advice is to find out what works best for you and stick with that.

There are some who believe that the immunity-boosting antioxidants and phytochemicals in fruits and vegetables can help to protect your tissues, possibly contributing to some minor pain relief. They can also provide you protection against a number of health problems unrelated to fibromyalgia.

Furthermore, you will do yourself a big favor if you keep your caffeine or alcohol consumption to a minimum, and cut yourself off from having either of them by late afternoon.

Some experts suggest taking melatonin, since it increases the levels of serotonin in the brain and might contribute to a better night's sleep.

No, fibromyalgia and idiopathic neuropathy are not the same. Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by widespread pain, fatigue, and tenderness in specific areas, often accompanied by sleep disturbances and cognitive issues. In contrast, idiopathic neuropathy refers to nerve damage or dysfunction without a known cause, often resulting in symptoms like numbness, tingling, or weakness. While both conditions can involve pain and affect quality of life, they have different underlying mechanisms and diagnostic criteria.

There is no specific monetary reward for discovering a cure for fibromyalgia, as compensation would depend on various factors, including the funding sources, the nature of the research, and potential partnerships with pharmaceutical companies. Successful research could lead to significant financial gains through grants, patents, and product sales. Additionally, recognition and career advancements in the medical and scientific community could also accompany such a breakthrough.
