Fibromyalgia Treatment
Treatment of Fibromyalgia can be difficult. Many doctors are not familiar
with fibromyalgia treatment. It is important to find a doctor that has
experience and knowledge of successful fibromyalgia treatment. Many
rheumatologists, general internists, or family physicians can treat
fibromyalgia.
Fibromyalgia treatment often requires a team approach, with your physician,
a physical therapist, other health professionals, possibly alternative
medicine, and most importantly, yourself, all playing an active role.
There are some pain clinics that specialize in pain and rheumatology
clinics that specialize in arthritis and other rheumatic diseases, including
fibromyalgia. There are no approved FDA drugs specifically for fibromyalgia,
however some medications made for other conditions can help.
