What Fibromyalgia Is

A Real Condition, Often Dismissed

Fibromyalgia is a recognized chronic condition marked by widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, sleep disturbance, and cognitive difficulty often described as “fibro fog.” It affects how the nervous system processes pain signals, amplifying pain that wouldn't otherwise be as intense.

Because there's no single test for fibromyalgia, many patients spend years being told nothing is wrong before receiving a diagnosis. Sleep, hormonal, and inflammatory factors can all make symptoms worse — and often go unaddressed in a standard visit.

Abbott Health & Wellness takes a full-picture approach: ruling out other causes, addressing contributing factors like sleep and hormones, and offering ketamine therapy for pain that hasn't responded to standard treatment.

Fibromyalgia Can Include

Widespread pain lasting more than 3 months
Fatigue that doesn't improve with rest
Difficulty concentrating or remembering (“fibro fog”)
Non-restorative sleep
Tenderness in multiple areas of the body
Headaches or irritable bowel symptoms
How We Approach It

Addressing Pain From More Than One Angle

Fibromyalgia rarely has one single cause, so we don't treat it with one single approach. We evaluate sleep quality, hormonal balance, and inflammatory markers alongside your pain history, and offer ketamine therapy when standard pain treatment hasn't provided relief.

Physician Insight

"Fibromyalgia patients are often told their labs are ‘normal’ and sent home without a plan. Normal labs don't mean nothing is wrong — it means we need to look at sleep, hormones, and inflammation together, not in isolation."

Fibromyalgia FAQs

What patients ask most before their first appointment.

Yes. Fibromyalgia is a recognized chronic pain condition with established diagnostic criteria, even though it doesn't show up on standard imaging or bloodwork. Diagnosis is based on widespread pain history and ruling out other conditions with similar symptoms.
There's no single test that confirms fibromyalgia. We use labs to rule out other causes of your symptoms — thyroid dysfunction, autoimmune disease, vitamin deficiencies — alongside a detailed history of your pain, sleep, and fatigue pattern.
Ketamine has shown effectiveness for certain chronic pain conditions, including some fibromyalgia pain, particularly when standard treatments haven't provided adequate relief. It's evaluated on a case-by-case basis after a full consultation.
