Fibromyalgia is a complex debilitating condition with no known cause or cure; women are five times more likely to suffer from fibromyalgia than men especially in the age group between 25 and 45 years of age. Fibromyalgia is difficult to diagnose because its symptoms are similar to symptoms from other health conditions. Typical symptoms of fibromyalgia are pain, aches and tenderness in trigger points around the lower spine, base of the neck, between the shoulder blades, elbows and knees, depression, abdominal pain, irritable bowel syndrome, fatigue, chest pain, low-grade fever, swollen lymph nodes and insomnia are also other common symptoms. Studies have shown that people who suffer from fibromyalgia may have a dysfunctional axis between the hypothalamus, pituitary and adrenals glands.

A change in diet may help with fibromyalgia; studies have shown that a vegan type diet with plenty of raw vegetables, fruit, nuts, seeds, oats, and legumes and no salt, monosodium glutamate (MSG) and aspartame is beneficial to those suffering from fibromyalgia.

Lifestyle changes can also help with fibromyalgia; low impact exercises, cognitive therapy, stretching exercises, meditation, chiropractic treatment and acupuncture are all beneficial.
