Fibromyalgia is linked to increased subjective sensory sensitivity across multiple senses

Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTChanges in subjective sensory sensitivity - reporting sensory stimuli as being atypically intense or weak - are a transdiagnostic symptom of several disorders. The present study documents for the first time the sensory sensitivity profile of fibromyalgia, taking a questionnaire measure that asks about different sensory modalities and both hyper- and hyposensitivity (the Glasgow Sensory Questionnaire, GSQ). The fibromyalgia group had higher overall scores on this measure. This was linked more strongly to sensory hypersens...

The use and effectiveness of exercise for managing postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome in young adults with joint hypermobility and related conditions: A scoping review
CONCLUSION: The findings highlight a paucity of higher-level studies documenting exercise for POTS management in people with joint hypermobility and related conditions. Results from the wider POTS population demonstrate exercise is safe and effective. Large, well-designed clinical studies exploring exercise for POTS management adapting to meet the complex musculoskeletal and non-musculoskeletal features of symptomatic joint hypermobility are needed.PMID:38401460 | DOI:10.1016/j.autneu.2024.103156 (Source: Autonomic Neuroscience)

Applying the Somatic Symptom Disorder Diagnosis to Individuals with Fibromyalgia: Strengths and Limitations
AbstractAmidst broad changes to the somatic disorder diagnoses, DSM-IV pain disorder was absorbed into DSM-5 ’s somatic symptom disorder (SSD) as a specifier. However, clinical research testing of its use for the chronic pain population has been limited and its utility remains inconclusive. Using the exemplar of fibromyalgia, this article evaluates the validity, reliability, clinical utility, and accepta bility of the SSD pain specifier. The diagnosis appears to have moderate validity but low specificity for the fibromyalgia population. The pain specifier has neither undergone sufficient field testing nor been evaluated ...
