This disease affects the brain of a person. The disorder causes the central nervous system to become oversensitive to pain impulses from various parts of the body.
The disease causes chronic and widespread pain all over the body that cannot be related to a single physiological cause. The most frequent complaint of fibromyalgia patients is muscular and skeletal pains.
The reason behind this is the abnormal behavior of the sensory neurons close to the spinal cord as they become hyperactive upon the application of a pain stimulus.
A large number of problems other than body pain are associated with the disorder. People may also lose the cognitive ability and the ability to concentrate on a single task for a lengthy amount of time due to this disorder. The attention extent and the ability to multitask could develop.
It may also cause disrupted sleep patterns and mood swings. The interrupted sleep pattern leads to other problems that are nearly identical to the problems faced by healthy people when they’re deprived of sleep.
Continuous fatigue and the feeling of tiredness throughout the day is the most common problem related to fibromyalgia. The tiredness remains consistent even after a long period of sleep.
The reason behind this lies in the fact that while the patient cannot remind waking up in the middle of the night, but fibromyalgia causes pain and the sleep is disturbed and causes a patient to wake up for very short periods and disturbs the long sleep that is needed for healthy functioning.
Almost 2% of the adult human population all over the world gets affected by this disorder annually. Some theories suggest it to be a genetically linked disorder. For this reason, people with relatives who have fibromyalgia are at greater risk of getting the disease at some point in their life.

The thing that should be clearly known is that apart from physiological and physical stresses, psychological stresses also play a vital role in the development of this disease.
The probability of the disorder is very high in people who have continuous stress or some form of posttraumatic stress disorder. The symptoms of fibromyalgia can also get intensified due to inherent psychological problems.
