Fibromyalgia: The Invisible Tormenter
Medical professionals do not know what causes fibromyalgia. They do, however, know that it causes widespread pain throughout the body. People with fibromyalgia often experience pain more intensely than people without it. Some of the other symptoms include:
Fibromyalgia does not have a known cure. Many people report a lower quality of life, difficulty working, and higher rates of depression. Its treatment can include pain medication, exercise, dietary changes, and stress management.
Why Do Insurers Often Deny Fibromyalgia Claims?
Despite the scientific evidence demonstrating the severity of fibromyalgia, insurance providers often refuse to fulfill disability claims related to it.

Insurers are for-profit corporations and will do anything they can to avoid paying these claims, even if your fibromyalgia prevents you from working.
