Symptoms Of Fibromyalgia
The present review attempts to reconcile the dichotomy that exists in
the literature in relation to fibromyalgia, in that it is considered
either a somatic response to psychological stress or a distinct
organically based syndrome. Specifically, the hypothesis explored is
that the link between chronic stress and the subsequent development of
fibromyalgia can be explained by one or more abnormalities in
neuroendocrine function. There are several such abnormalities recognised
that both occur as a result of chronic stress and are observed in
fibromyalgia. Whether such abnormalities have an aetiologic role remains
uncertain but should be testable by well-designed prospective studies.
