which cause is implicated in patients with fibromyalgia syndrome (fms)?
1 pts
autoimmune disease
central nervous system dysfunction
muscle dysfunction
viral disease
Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is characterized by widespread pain, fatigue, and cognitive issues. Research indicates that central nervous system dysfunction plays a key role. It involves abnormal pain processing in the brain and spinal cord, such as amplified pain signals (central sensitization). Autoimmune markers aren't typically found in a way that defines it as an autoimmune disease. Muscle biopsy doesn't show primary muscle - dysfunction as the root cause. While some cases may follow viral infections (like post - viral fatigue), it's not classified as a viral disease. Central nervous system dysfunction is the most implicated cause.
