Where does Fibromyalgia hurt?
Fibromyalgia is a syndrome distinguished by the spread of overall musculoskeletal pain. Fibromyalgia affects our connective tissues. In our body, there are sheets of muscles that are connected with each other through connective tissues. These connective tissues get inflamed, causing severe debility of muscles so practically the body cannot move. The pain is accompanied by fatigue, sleep, memory, and mood issues. Studies show that fibromyalgia intensifies hurting sensations by impacting the way your brain processes pain signs. It can have severe and lifelong effects.
What does a fibromyalgia attack feel like?
The pain feels like an intense stabbing sensation primarily in the chest, around the breastbone, and rib cage. Fibromyalgia chest pains can be a frightening and painful experience because chest pain can mimic a heart attack. Your pain can differ depending on how active you are.

Why does Fibromyalgia occur?
- Unhealthy eating habits
- Use of alcohol or drugs
- Lack of sleep
- Excess physical activity or Lack of physical activity
- Viral infections
- Immune system problems, especially autoimmune responses
- Hormonal imbalances
- Genetics
- Physical or emotional trauma
- Unrelenting exhaustion because of a condition like acute liver failure, anemia, anxiety disorders, grief, heart disease
According to Ayushakti Ayurveda, Improper diet & lifestyle, childhood traumas, mental & emotional stress triggers:
- Excess Aam (toxic mucous) and Vata (air) formation in muscle tissues. Excess aam(toxins) creates inflammation & stiffness . Too much Vata (air ) creates severe pain, depression, and chronic fatigue.
- Excessive aam toxins change the cellular structure. Thus, our immune intelligence is cheated to think this is a foreign cell & it begins to attack the cells to destroy it. That’s how autoimmune responses are triggered creating connective tissue inflammation.
- Excessive toxins & wrong diet & lifestyle depletes metabolic and digestive Agni (reduced or blocked secretion of digestive & metabolic enzymes & hormones). Finally, resulting in low absorption of nutrients. Thus, chronic fatigue, severe muscular, nervous & immune weaknesses, frequent infections.
What are the types of Fibromyalgia?
Fibromyalgia can be distinguished by its pain & location
Pain-
- Critical pain comes on unexpectedly and can be painful. Acute pain goes away in about 2 weeks. It runs its course and vanishes as the trouble is relieved.
- When pain becomes chronic, it may be associated with abnormalities of brain chemicals, loss of focus, brain fog, low energy, mood disorders, muscle pain, and less activity physically and mentally.
Location-
- Leg pain-
One can also feel fibromyalgia pain in the leg muscles and soft tissues. Leg pain can feel identical to the soreness of a stretched muscle or the stiffness of arthritis. It includes symptoms like burning, throbbing.
-
Back pain-
It may not be precise whether Fibromyalgia is to blame, or another disorder like arthritis or a stretched muscle for backache. Further symptoms like brain fog and exhaustion can support pinpointing Fibromyalgia as the cause. It’s also possible to have a combination of Fibromyalgia and arthritis. - Chest pain-
It can feel identical to the intense pain of a heart attack. Chest pain in Fibromyalgia is actually centered in the cartilage that connects your ribs to your breast bone. The discomfort may release to your shoulders and arms. Fibromyalgia chest pain may be sharp, stabbing, like a burning sensation.
How to Diagnose Fibromyalgia?
The leading factor required for a fibromyalgia diagnosis is overall pain throughout your body for at least three months. To meet the criteria, you must have pain in at least four of these five areas:
-
Left upper part, which includes shoulder, arm or jaw
-
Right upper part, which includes shoulder, arm or jaw
-
Left lower part, which includes hip, buttock, or leg
-
Right lower part, which includes hip, buttock or leg
-
Axial part, including the neck, back, chest or abdomen
While there is no lab test to verify a diagnosis of fibromyalgia, your doctor may want to rule out other disorders that may have equivalent symptoms. Blood tests may possess:
- Complete blood count
- Erythrocyte sedimentation rate
- Cyclic citrullinated peptide test
- Rheumatoid factor
- Thyroid function tests
- ANA- antinuclear antibody test

Are Fibromyalgia and MS related to each other?
MS can permanently damage your nerves over time. It is an auto-immune disease and often affects the brain and spinal cord. Fibromyalgia causes pain and stiffness all over the body, along with other symptoms. Fatigue and feeling tired all the time are the common symptoms of Fibromyalgia and MS. Both are lifelong diseases.
Will Fibromyalgia go away?
What is the conventional approach?
1. Over-the-counter pain relievers may be helpful initially, but, over a period of time in chronic conditions, they don’t work.
2. Narcotics are not advised, because they can lead to dependence and may even worsen the pain over time. Many people suffer from side effects.
3. Antidepressants may help ease the pain and fatigue associated with Fibromyalgia. Pain is so strong that even the strongest medication can’t get rid of it.
4. Anti-seizure drugs are tried as well.
