Are there different forms of fibromyalgia?

Answered By Eric Falwelle, Editor


Yes, there are actually different forms of fibromyaligia. These forms are categorized according to the symptoms a person experiences. They are:

• Post traumatic – there is a record of a single incident such as a car accident the pre-dates the pain syndrome. The accident commonly is an effect of an intense tremor and wounding of spinal muscles. Patients first complain of headaches and afterwards complain of arm or leg stiffness or itchiness or pain.

• Repetitive Traumatic - The idea of this is that a repeated injury can add up to the symptoms of fibromyalgia.

• Mood related fibromyalgia - usually, most fibromyalgics suffer this syndrome especially if they are suffering from extreme anxiety and pain. As a result, to this, fibromyalgics develop mood disorders such as depression.

• Hormonal abnormalities such as hyperthyroidism – this commonly cause enlarged muscle tension, anxiety and sleep disorder (a perfect ingredient indicative of fibromyalgia).
