Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition typically characterized by widespread muscle pain, tenderness, fatigue, and other symptoms such as sleep disturbances and cognitive difficulties (often referred to as “fibro fog”). It affects the way the brain and spinal cord process pain signals, amplifying the sensation of pain throughout the body. At Revere Health, we work closely with patients who have fibromyalgia to help them manage their symptoms, improve their quality of life, and develop personalized treatment plans.

Fatigue: Patients often wake up feeling tired despite getting adequate sleep.
Cognitive Difficulties: Problems with focus, memory, and mental clarity, commonly referred to as “fibro fog.”
Sleep Disorders: Difficulty achieving restful sleep or experiencing sleep disruptions.
Treatment Options
Medication: Includes pain relievers, antidepressants, and medications to improve sleep and reduce fatigue.
