Some Fibromyalgia & Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Symptoms Can Be Managed with B Vitamins

Patients with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome share many similarities in symptoms associated with both these very painful disorders. Along with sharing many of the same symptoms, both have no known cause, nor is there a cure for either one.

It can be very hard to distinguish one from the other, because it is estimated that up to seventy percent of those diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome can also fall under the guidelines of fibromyalgia and vice versa. Even doctors can become confused, because people with chronic fatigue syndrome have pain associated, which is one of the main symptoms of fibromyalgia. On the reverse those with fibromyalgia have symptoms of fatigue which is a big factor for those afflicted with chronic fatigue syndrome. You can easily see why it might leave some wondering, which is which?

So what are some of the symptoms of Fibromyalgia? This disorder can affect anyone, but most commonly found in middle aged folks, and those with rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune diseases can be especially at risk. Fibromyalgia makes you feel tired, we all can feel tired at some time or another, the difference comes in the fact, that even though rested, someone with fibromyalgia still feels tired, causing muscle pain and tenderness to the touch for some places such as the neck, shoulders, back, hips, arms and legs. These life changing symptoms can bring on trouble sleeping, morning stiffness, headaches, along with problems thinking and memory.

Those diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome have had a minimum of six months of fatigue, other symptoms include muscle pain, memory problems, headaches, pain in multiple joints, sleep issues, sore throat and tender lymph nodes. This disorder commonly affects women in their 40's and 50's, but again anyone can get it and can last for years.

There is one thing that both doctors and their patients affected by either one of these disorders agree, and that is that B-12  and folic acid can help them manage some of their symptoms. Since both disorders can affect mental function, memory and thinking problems in particular. B vitamins and brain function are strong and well documented. It is no wonder many healthcare professionals, both traditional and alternative medicine, along with experts in both fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome support the use of B vitamins and folic acid to help in managing their patients symptoms.

If you think you or a loved one has any or all of these symptoms, please see your health care provider to know for sure. If you have been diagnosed with either one of these disorders. Take plenty of high quality B vitamins to help with some of the symptoms.
