Yes : Fibromyalgia is often a diagnosis of exclusion, meaning, a cause could not be determined for a group of symptoms. Pain and soreness occurring in different parts of the body are often common. There is effective treatment, but oftentimes treatment is required long term.

Yes: Fibromyalgia cure? Cause unknown, cure elusive; several consultants needed: Rheumatologist for diagnosis & FDA-approved meds. Osteopath for soft tissue diagnosis. Alternative Physician for neutriceuticals. Yoga (gentle) instructor. Aquatherapy (P.T.) instructor. Cannabis consultant for meds for pain, mood, & sleeping. Mindfulness Therapy coach. Licensed masseuse. Persons who pursue oft improve.
