Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia is a long-term condition characterised by widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, and tenderness in localised areas. It can also cause symptoms like sleep disturbances, memory problems, and mood issues, often making daily activities challenging. The exact cause of fibromyalgia is not fully understood. While there is no cure, effective management strategies, including medication, physiotherapy, exercise, and stress reduction techniques, can help alleviate symptoms and improve quality of life.

Why Group Programs Can Help With Chronic Pain: The Psychology Explained

Living with chronic pain is often a deeply isolating experience. Even with supportive family and friends, it can be hard for others to fully understand what day to day life with persistent pain actually involves. This is part of why group based pain programs, bringing together people who are all navigating a similar experience under the guidance of a multidisciplinary team, have become such a well established part of pain management in Australia.

Chronic pain - an umbrella diagnosis

Chronic pain is very much an umbrella term with many types of ongoing or persistent pain included under this term. Such as back pain, migraine, irritable bowel syndrome, fibromyalgia, interstitial cystitis and many more.

What is a
Fibromyalgia Practitioner

Many different practitioners help people manage fibromyalgia. A GP usually makes the diagnosis, based on your symptoms and after ruling out other conditions, and coordinates your care. A rheumatologist or pain specialist may also be involved, seen with a GP referral. Physiotherapists and exercise physiologists help you build activity gradually, and psychologists can teach pain-coping skills and support sleep and mood. Occupational therapists help with energy and daily tasks. Some people also find massage or acupuncture helpful.

How Can Practitioners Help With Fibromyalgia?

Getting a Diagnosis

There is no single test for fibromyalgia. Your GP will ask about your pain, tiredness, sleep and other symptoms, and may order blood tests to rule out similar conditions, such as thyroid problems or inflammatory arthritis.
Health Hunter

Gentle, Regular Exercise

Health Hunter
Regular physical activity is one of the most recommended parts of fibromyalgia management. A physiotherapist or exercise physiologist can help you start gently, with walking, water exercise or stretching, and build up slowly so flares are less likely.

Sleep and Fatigue

Health Hunter
Poor sleep and fatigue are common with fibromyalgia and can make pain feel worse. Your GP or a psychologist can help improve your sleep habits, and an occupational therapist can help you pace activities to save energy.

Pain and Mood

Health Hunter
Long-term pain can affect your mood and relationships. A psychologist can teach skills such as CBT and relaxation to manage pain and stress. If eligible, a GP can make a Mental Health Treatment Plan for Medicare-subsidised psychology sessions.

Medicines Review

Health Hunter
Some medicines may help with pain or sleep in fibromyalgia, but they tend to work best alongside exercise. Your GP can talk through options and side effects, and review what you take, including over-the-counter pain relief and supplements.

Coordinated Care Plan

Health Hunter
Because fibromyalgia often involves several practitioners, your GP can help coordinate care. If eligible, a GP chronic condition management plan can give you Medicare-subsidised allied health visits, such as physiotherapy. Regular reviews help adjust the plan.
