Autonomic nervous system dysfunction and FMS



The Fibromyalgia disease is the disease that has baffled many scientists and researchers because the disorder shows such symptoms that are not easily diagnosed. In the FMS disorder the patient has widespread pain in his/her muscles, ligaments and tendons. The Ligaments and tendons connect muscles to bones. The sufferer also has sleep disorders which leaves him completely exhausted and with a feeling of fatigue. The causes of this strange disorder are not very well defined but there is convincing proof that the muscle injury or the dysfunctioning of the nervous system may be the real culprits behind the disorder and it more so with the nervous system dysfunction. The occurrence of this disease is more common in women than in men and it mostly attacks the individuals in the age group of 20 to 60. Age, gender, genetic factors and psychiatric illness are the risk factors for this disease.

Nervous System Effects:

The role of the dysfunction of the nervous system has been most closely linked with FMS disease. The nervous system includes the brain and the spinal cord. Any injury to the nervous system may result in the dysfunction of it. The injury can be caused by an accident, undue stress, and infection. The injury to the nervous system affects the secretion of the neurotransmitters and hormones, as well as blood flow, causing serious pain and other symptoms. In a research finding it was concluded that persons having neck trauma are more at the risk of fibromyalgia than those who do not sustain any neck injury. The study stated that the individuals with neck injury are thirteen times more at the risk of FMS than those who do not have any.

The injury to the central nervous system also affects the brainwave pattern in the patients. The brainwaves show the electrical activities of the individual’s brain. The brain has four kinds of brainwaves and each is responsible for a certain kind of function and the injury to the nervous system can seriously impair the brainwaves causing the sleep disturbances and the patient may experience cognitive dysfunction like concentrating and remembering things which are the symptoms of the fibromyalgia disorder. The injury to the nervous system can affect such neurotransmitter like the serotonin and dopamine which are very important in regulation of certain functions in the body. Thus the nervous system is very closely related to the development of FMS.
