What Is Fibromyalgia?
Fibromyalgia is a chronic pain disorder characterized by widespread pain, stiffness, and fatigue. According to the Mayo Clinic, people with fibromyalgia often experience increased sensitivity to pain due to a disruption in how their brains process pain. Other symptoms can include sleep disturbances, memory problems, and mood swings.
