Fibromyalgia is a disease characterized by widespread pain with multiple tender points all over the body. There are myriad associated symptoms, such as morning stiffness, numbness or tingling, fatigue, insomnia, headaches, difficulty with thinking or memory (brain fog), and depression. It affects an estimated 5 million Americans, predominately women, though men can also suffer from the condition.

Drugs commonly prescribed by rheumatologists for fibromyalgia include Lyrica (pregabalin) and Cymbalta (duloxetine). These drugs will result in substantial benefits in a minority of people, but are associated with various side effects, and are not treating the underlying causes of the condition.

Successfully treating fibromyalgia requires a thorough evaluation of the multiple causative factors that we now know to be associated with this condition. and addressing those factors in an effective, comprehensive way. For example, all fibromyalgia patients in one study have been found to have SIBO (small intestinal bowel overgrowth), and successful treatment of the condition resulted in a reduction of symptoms.

If you or someone you care about may be suffering from fibromyalgia, Vitality Integrative Medicine can help determine what the issue is, and then provide effective treatment. The ultimate goal is to get you out of pain and feeling better.
