system: How does fibromyalgia affect sleep?
output: You may be able to fall asleep, but your sleep is light and easily disturbed. When you get up in the morning, you're exhausted and not refreshed. It doesn't help the fatigue. Tests done in sleep labs show that people with fibro are constantly interrupted by bursts of brain activity similar to what happens in the brain when they're awake. These interruptions limit how much time you spend in deep sleep, when your body restores itself, and you feel run down as a result. Up to half of all people with fibromyalgia have depression or an anxiety disorder when they're diagnosed with fibro.
system: What does the pain and tenderness associated with fibromyalgia feel like?
output: Since there are no lab or imaging tests for it, when you go to get a diagnosis, your doctor will ask about your symptoms to decide if you have fibromyalgia Many people with fibro -- also called fibromyalgia syndrome or FMS -- may have: Pain and tender points Fatigue Sleep problems Concentration and memory problems, known as "fibro fog" Anxiety or depression Morning stiffness Numbness, and tingling in hands, arms, feet, and legs Headaches Irritable bowel syndrome Problems with urinating Painful menstrual cramps Almost all people with fibromyalgia ache all over. It can feel similar to osteoarthritis, bursitis, and tendinitis, but it's over your entire body. This is usually what makes you go see your doctor. The pain can be deep, sharp, dull, throbbing, or aching. You feel it in your muscles, tendons, and ligaments around the joints. For some people, the pain comes and goes. It could travel throughout your body. You may also have tender points -- specific spots around your joints that hurt when you press them with a finger. If you press a tender point on a person without fibromyalgia, they'll just feel pressure. But that same pressure would be very painful for someone with fibro. These tender points are in predictable places on the body. They're often under the surface of the skin, not in areas of deep pain. It's the tissue around the muscles and joints that hurts rather than the joints themselves.
system: How does fibromyalgia affect mood?
output: Up to half of all people with fibromyalgia have depression or an anxiety disorder when they're diagnosed with fibro. Dealing with being fatigued and in pain all the time can be stressful. You probably worry about keeping up with life and what you can do to feel better. You may become less active and more withdrawn, which can lead to depression. It's also possible that anxiety and depression may actually be a part of fibromyalgia, like the pain. People diagnosed with fibromyalgia and depression have a hard time with concentration and short-term memory, which make it hard to remember day-to-day things, like where they've put their keys or plans they've made for lunch tomorrow.

You may not have all of the symptoms, and you may have other medical problems, too. Since there are no lab or imaging tests for it, when you go to get a diagnosis, your doctor will ask about your symptoms to decide if you have fibromyalgia Many people with fibro -- also called fibromyalgia syndrome or FMS -- may have: Pain and tender points Fatigue Sleep problems Concentration and memory problems, known as "fibro fog" Anxiety or depression Morning stiffness Numbness, and tingling in hands, arms, feet, and legs Headaches Irritable bowel syndrome Problems with urinating Painful menstrual cramps Almost all people with fibromyalgia ache all over.
system: How does swelling and tingling in hands and feet affect people with fibromyalgia?
output: While the cause of numbness, tingling, and burning is unclear, many people with fibro feel them. These sensations, called paresthesia, tend to happen randomly. They may last a few minutes, or they may be constant. The feelings can be especially bothersome in the mornings along with morning stiffness.
system: How does fibromyalgia affect menstrual cramps?
output: You may not have all of the symptoms, and you may have other medical problems, too.
system: What does fatigue feel like in people with fibromyalgia?
output: A lingering tiredness and feeling drained is another big complaint. People often feel tired even when they should feel rested, such as after a good night's sleep. Some say it's like having the flu. Some compare it to working long hours and missing a lot of sleep. You may feel too tired to exercise or more tired after a workout. Simple things such as grocery shopping or cooking dinner could wipe you out. Starting a project such as folding clothes or ironing could seem like too much effort. You might even be too tired for sex.
system: How common is irritable bowel syndrome in people with fibromyalgia?

system: What is morning stiffness like in people with fibromyalgia?
output: Most people with fibromyalgia feel like they need to "loosen up" after getting out of bed before they can start their day. The muscles and joints of their back, arms, and legs feel stiff. It's not typical creakiness. It's more like the stiffness someone with rheumatoid arthritis feels. Although some people say it lasts only a few minutes, the stiffness usually sticks around for more than 15 to 20 minutes each day. Sometimes it lasts for hours, and it could linger all day.

system: What happens to your airways during an asthma attack?
output: Asthma is associated with inflammation of the lower airways inside your lungs called the bronchial tubes. During normal breathing, the bands of muscle that surround the airways are relaxed. During an asthma attack, three main changes occur that stop air from moving easily through the airways: The bands of muscle that surround the airways tighten. This tightening is called bronchospasm. The cells that line the airways produce more mucus, which is thicker than normal. Call your doctor if you experience any of these signs: Fever (with a temperature over 101 ° F) or chills Increased fatigue or weakness A very sore throat or pain when swallowing Sinus headaches, upper toothaches, or tenderness or pain of the upper cheekbones Coughing up greater amounts of yellow- or green-colored mucus Difficulty swallowing your saliva Also call your doctor if you have any other symptoms that cause concern, such as the following: Increased shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, or wheezing Symptoms getting worse or remaining unchanged after seven days Symptoms remaining unchanged or getting worse after 10 days Eye pain or swelling and/or vision changes Severe head or facial pain or swelling Neck stiffness or sensitivity to light Good hygiene can decrease viral infections such as colds.

If you're allergic to nickel in something you eat, you'll get bumps on the sides of your fingers, called dyshidrotic hand eczema or pompholyx. There's no treatment for a nickel allergy, so you'll have to stop wearing or using anything with it. You could try painting a coat of nail polish on jewelry, which puts a barrier between the metal and your skin.
system: How can poison ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac cause skin allergies?
output: When parts of the leaves of these plants are damaged or bruised, they release an oil called urushiol. And if that gets on your skin, it causes an itchy red rash with bumps or blisters.

But see a doctor right away if your reaction is severe or if you breathed in the oil, perhaps from burning plants.
