What is Fibromyalgia?

Fibromyalgia is a widely recognized as a functional somatic disorder which significantly affects a person’s quality of life through both chronic pain and a heightened and painful response to pressure. While not fully understood, the cause of this disability is generally considered to be related to central sensitization caused by increased sensitivity in the body’s pain sensing nerves.
