Good Website... just to bad that I have all the symptoms (and some).

Many people with fibromyalgia also experience a constellation of other symptoms, which can include any of the following:
  • headache
  • irritable bowel syndrome
  • sensitivity to loud sounds, bright lights, extremes of temperature and certain textures
  • temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ)
  • restless legs syndrome (RLS)
  • irritable bladder
  • pelvic pain
  • dry mouth and eyes

In some people with fibromyalgia, the constant pain and fatigue can cause excessive stress, which leads to feelings of anxiety and even depression, both of which can exacerbate their other symptoms.
