Even after multiple lab tests, a general physician may not be able to find anything wrong
with your body. Though the right cause of fibromyalgia is still unknown, but it is believed
that when the muscle's nerves become exhausted due to high inflammation, they send
signals to the brain which results in severe pain.
To find out if you are suffering from fibromyalgia, the doctors may run certain test
like identifying specific areas on the body that are highly sensitive and cause pain
even with little pressure. There are a number of pressure points located from head
down to the knees in symmetrical pairs.
Tender Points of Fibromyalgia Pain:
There are specific spots in pairs of nine which are quite tender to soft pressure. These
spots are important in the assessment of fibromyalgia.

universal symptom that comes with fibromyalgia and which lets people know that there is
a problem and that they should be getting in to see their doctor.

disturbances are also quite common here.
