Fibromyalgia and sleep disorders

Question:
if you have a sleep disorder, are you likely to have fibromyalgia, too... and is the sleep apnea secondary to the Fibromyalgia? Is it worthwhile to get checked for it?


Answer:
No. however, if you have fibromyalgia (fm) you most likely will have sleep problems. The two primary indicators of fibromyalgia are tender points at specific locations on the body -- bilateral, and debilitating fatigue. If you don't have the tender points -- then its' unlikely you have fm.
