    the cause of fibromialgia: Stress and being toooo nice! Stop caring for others and put yourself at the center of your life. I wish we all heal😢
  • @pseudotron8493
    I'm only 22 but I've been living with fibromyalgia for now 4 years and only been diagnosed a couple of weeks ago. The massive muscle tightness and knots all over my back, neck and trapezius are insane. You can feel and see every group of muscle fiber stiff as a rock. The pain is unbearable and I can affirm you, it is a physical pain also.
  • @christinam777
    I think the health community is somewhat wrong about this. I have extremely tight musckes that nees to be stretched every morning. It is physical. My nervous system is on fire, and theres LOTS of physical and just pain symptoms. Muscle, joint, and nerve pain in skin. Its insane. But anyone explaining this who doesnt experience these horrors, cannot tell me what it is. No its not just pain. Muscles are extremely tight.
  • It is a disease of the neurological system. But, no one will listen😢
  • @eviemorgs
    She is right. The root cause is nervous system dysregulation from trauma, chronic stress & anxiety and suppressed emotions, the limbic system and nervous system control every other system in the body
  • @divahc1
    How does the problem in the pain system account for all the other symptoms of fibro? For example: muscle stiffness, sleep disturbances, eye and mouth dryness, digestive issues and memory issues, to name but a few.
  • @annabelaviles1353
    Thank you Dr. Furlan, I've had fibromyalgia for many years, and you are absolutely right, the pain system is the one that messes up everything unfortunately 😢
  • @Honeyyumyum
    Fibromyalgia is terrible it's all kind of pain and problems also flare ups rib pain inflammation and so much more it's terrible pain unbelievable
  • I have Fibromyalgia. It is based upon an imbalance between gaba and glutamate. My channel will be out soon, and I being a University Lecturer and researcher will explain properly and finally help people. drs no nothing.
  • Wow, this is the best explanation ever! I can’t wait to watch more of your videos. Finally someone explains it so simply yet accurately. Thank you.
  • @DragonSlayerRob
    Many cases are related to upper cervical instability (in my case one of my root causes was breaking my collar bone in childhood) which can lead to your C1 being out of axis and interfering with nerve and blood flow (disrupting CBS and ANS signals) so the body throws up the alarm signal constantly and acutely. Upper cervical instability also leads nervous system malfunction throughout the body including with the vagus nerve with regulates flight and flight so long story short this is where trauma, anxiety, and depression play a role in the disorder.
  • I just love how we are to assume that all of these comments are by experts. Know your sources.
  • @kberchin
    Does anyone have tender spots on their scalp??????
  • Does anyone suffer with painful hips sore all over chest/stomach? I suffer with with herniated discs as is so I don't know . My legs and arms are very bad to just nothing in them and constant pain
  • I've got diagnosed with fibromyalgia 2 days ago . Suffered with 3 herniated discs but the last two almost 3 years now I've been suffering with painful stomach just pain all over at random times but always have pain really . Finally a doctor said its fibromyalgia which is great to finally know but it's rough
  • Nope, its not the 'pain system', like what is that?? The 'pain system '??? Fibrimylgia is pain of muscle and connective tissue, ligaments, tendons and the pain is body wide! It's typical of a doctor to say this about fibromylgia! Do you all think that those of us with Fibro don't know the type if pain we have and the severity of it, you think you know more than people suffering with Fibro know!!
  • I’m just curious what your thoughts are on a recent study that shows fibromyalgia could be an autoimmune disease?
  • You explain things so wonderfully Dr. Furlan! I don't understand why most traditional Drs don't seem to. All they do for me is to "treat"the pain. But like you said, this is like splashing water on the front porch of a burning house then leave while the house is still burning. You are a blessing! Gale ❤
