Finding Out The Treatment Fibromyalgia In Pregnancy

By Shaun Marsh

The exact reason why fibromyalgia exists is not yet known. Both alleviation of symptoms and focusing on the quality of life are the focus of the treatment process for most patients. Prescription medicine, alternative medicine, work outs and changes in the lifestyle are combined to form one powerful treatment regimen for fibromyalgia patients.

But, it is also known that the approach is always trial and error. It means that the approach is tweaked in various ways to meet the needs of one patient. Moreover, the method is modified entirely for the benefit of a single patient. It is important that patients have to allow the medical personnel work as a team so that a plan can be devised properly for each patient.

But, the approach is limited in a way that the disease process is not yet understood and there is only a limited background about the course of the disorder. There is really no single treatment studied that emerged to be really working. Most of all, there is no published information regarding the disease activity during pregnancy.

The lack of understanding about the disease process puts the fetus and the mother in danger. There has been conflict in the evidence of the process of disease and its effect to pregnancy. It is imperative therefore that further research is needed in order to discover the appropriate treatment as well as the course of disease on pregnancy.

The importance of such research is needed so that there will not come a time where we have to choose between the mother and child. There is one thing that is already known and it is the fact that the pregnancy alone can increase the symptoms of fibromyalgia. However, this needs to be delved deeper.

The most important phase and the most challenging during pregnancy is the third trimester where the frequency of the symptoms is also increasing. This would mean that the disease is already progressing. - 29964
