6 Reasons Why It's Harder for Men to Be Diagnosed with Fibromyalgia
6. Symptoms may disappear and reappear from time to time
Another interesting fact about fibromyalgia is that the pain along with other symptoms may come and go. The pain may disappear for days or even months and resurface. This becomes challenging when the patient has a scheduled visit to the doctor and the pain is no longer felt.
The patient may have a hard time pinpointing where the pain is coming from. Also, they may under report symptoms like insomnia, restless leg syndrome, and others. With most men barely agreeing to have themselves finally checked, this can be a big hurdle to face.
