Fibromyalgia

The patient has sometimes waited to seek for their pain, has sometime met
unsympathetic in medical care and after that tried different treatments outside
the medical care. Since the disease isnīt "visually outside" it can be difficult for
the world around, my family, workmates and others to realize the factor of
the patients trouble.

The patient is handicapped of tireness, effete, the pain who aggravates
of affliction in some case and periodically also of tenderness in sole feets(difficulty to walk),
tenderness in caudal vertebra(difficulty to sit), tenderness in the skin(difficulty to have
tight clothes), eyetiredness(readingdifficulty), reduced
concentration- and memoryfunction(difficulty to gather information and to
carry out exacting intellectuell work), morningstiffness(difficulty to get started in the morning
and work in "usual" time), swollenfeeling and weekness in the hands
(fumblingness, drop things, difficulty with precisionwork).

Many people have trouble to say which is worst. "The pain I can learn to live
with - but the tiredness bather me most".
The tiredness in the muscles is often more handikapping than the pain.
Neither the pain or the tiredness can rests away.
The deterioration of lifequality and functioncapacity is comparable with them
who have Rheumatoid arthritis.
Householdwork is tiring to do. You have to change your livingpattern be cause of
the fibromyalgia, and donīt have the strength with so much
spare time activity and social life. Fibromyalgia affects the person psysical,
physical and social.

No matter what causes fibromyalgia it makes often a longterm suffering, but the biggest
and the most important RESPONSIBILITY against your body the patient must have for them self. You do need however
help so You could take that responsibility.
