Pain is a symptom–we who live with it have to tell others what we are feeling. We may have some objective signs that practitioners, friends and family can see such as flinching, moving slowly, etc. This new study gives another thing that we can see and ultimately treat!
Here is a quote from that article: “To solve the Fibromyalgia mystery, researchers zeroed in on the skin from the hand of one patient who had a lack of the sensory nerve fibers, causing a reduced reaction to pain. They then took skin samples from the hands of Fibromyalgia patients and were surprised to find an extremely excessive amount of a particular type of nerve fiber called arteriole-venule (AV) shunts.
To truly heal an illness, it is important to understand the underlying cause(s). Because of Fibromyalgia’s history as a syndrome, I am not sure that science has discovered underlying cause(s) like they have with a disease like Diabetes. It may turn out that there are multiple diseases that are now classified as Fibromyalgia. Either way this is good news! Knowing that there is a structural or functional aspect that causes the pain will go along way to finding better ways to manage or cure!

Thank you for posting! I believe that pain can be a message–sometimes literally from the body–something is wrong. Or it can be a message about life style choices. Mindfulness is a great part of step one. I would love to work with you so you can thrive!
