Fibromyalgia is a rheumatologic disorder sometimes called fibrositis, it is six times more common in women than men. Patients with fibromyalgia typically complain of fatigue and pain in the neck, middle, and lower back, and pain in the chest wall, arms, and legs.

Fibromyalgia is caused by a lack of deep sleep. It is during stage 4 sleep that muscles recover from the prior day’s activity, and the body refreshes itself. Sleep studies show that as people with fibromyalgia enter stage 4 sleep, they become more aroused and stay in a lighter form of sleep.
