Although fibromyalgia is a relatively recent term, this syndrome has been known by several other names over the past years, including soft tissue rheumatism, fibrositis and non-articular rheumatism.

Common symptoms include pain and swelling in many joints or soft tissues, trouble sleeping, fatigue and weakness, poor memory, trouble concentrating, stiffness in joints and muscles particularly in the morning, inability to stand the cold, sensitivities to certain foods, medications and/or allergens, depression, tension and migraine headaches.
