<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Who gets fibromyalgia?</h2>
<p>Fibromyalgia attacks as many as 4 million Americans 18 and older. The average age range at which the fibromyalgia is diagnosed is 35 to 45 years old, but many people have had symptoms, including chronic pain, that began much earlier in life. Fibromyalgia is more frequent in women than in men.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What are the symptoms of fibromyalgia?</h2>
<p>Chronic (long-term), extensive pain is the most common symptom of fibromyalgia. You may feel the pain all over the body. Or, you may feel it further in the muscles you use most often, like in your legs or back. The pain may feel like a deep deep muscle ache, or it may pulsate or burn. Your pain may also be more harmful in the morning.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Other symptoms of fibromyalgia include;</h3>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Cognitive and memory difficulties (sometimes called “fibro fog”)</li>
<li>Extreme tiredness, called fatigue that does not become better with sleep or rest</li>
<li>Trouble sleeping</li>
<li>Mood problems</li>
<li>Morning fatigue</li>
<li>Painful menstrual periods</li>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What causes fibromyalgia symptoms to flare?</h2>
<p>Fibromyalgia symptoms can happen without any warning. But certain events also can trigger flare-ups, include:</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">• Hormonal changes during the cycle or pregnancy.</h3>
<p>You may have more trouble sleeping, more extensive pain, or headaches just before your period when your hormone levels decrease. Your periods may also be more painful.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">• Stress.</h3>
<p>Chronic (long-term) stress may increase your risk of getting fibromyalgia. Also, the short-term stress, such as work stress, or stressful events, such as the death of a loved one, can start flare-ups in people who have fibromyalgia.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">• Changes in weather.</h3>
<p>Some women report pain with changes in barometric pressure (such as when the temperature decreases from warm to cold) or on hot, humid days.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What foods are good to eat for fibromyalgia?</h2>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><strong>FIBROMYALGIA DIET FOOD LIST</strong></p>
