A very real imaginary problem of hypochondria and psychosomatic symptoms. Recent numbers show a diagnosis of 2 percent in the United States alone. Most cases being in North America with no real recognition in many other developed/non developed countries. Most people with fibromyalgia are women (about 80 - 90 percent.) There is no medical way to diagnose fibromyalgia, it is a relatively new diagnosis in the medical field and believed by most in the field psychosomatic.
Bolstering this view is the fact that patients with fibromyalgia often suffer from anxiety or depression. And some patients who suffer only from a psychiatric disorder may develop somatic symptoms that mimic fibromyalgia — yet the primary challenge is a mental health problem, and symptoms will abate only when it is addressed. For all these reasons, the best treatment involves a team approach that includes mental health clinicians. Lifetime prevalence of psychiatric disorders is even higher in those complaining of fibromyalgia.

There is a widespread skepticism in the medical practice of whether fibromyalgia should be deemed a manifested physical diagnosis.

When your fibromyalgia is out of control, and you are in the emergency room acting a fool to get meds.
"My pain is 300 on a scale of 0-10. I have taken all of my psych meds and I'm out of Dilaudid tabs. This is the worst fibrostorm I have ever encountered, and I just had a seizure while I was talking to you. I didn't know fibromyalgia could get this bad."
