Fibromyalgia
Diagnosis
If you think you have fibromyalgia, visit your GP. Diagnosing fibromyalgia can be difficult, as there's no specific test to diagnose the condition.
There's no cure for fibromyalgia, but treatments like painkillers, talking therapies and exercise programmes may help ease some of your symptoms.
It's not clear what causes fibromyalgia. It can start after a stressful event like an injury, illness or the death of a loved one.
