What is Fibromyalgia?

Fibromyalgia is a common, chronic syndrome that causes bodily pain and mental distress. It is characterised by widespread musculoskeletal pain accompanied by fatigue, sleep, memory, and mood issues.
Fibromyalgia is a chronic disorder that causes pain and tenderness throughout the body along with fatigue and sleep problems. The symptoms of this condition are often confused with those of Arthritis. However, the difference between the two conditions is that Arthritis affects the joints whereas Fibromyalgia affects the soft tissue in the body.

What Causes Fibromyalgia?

Medical experts don’t know why some people develop the condition. It is sometimes triggered by genetics. Certain conditions or events such as the following may also bring on symptoms of Fibromyalgia.
  • Medical conditions such as viral infections or other illnesses.
  • Poor sleep.
  • Lack of exercise.
  • Stressors such as premature birth and traumatic life events.
  • Anxiety, depression, PTSD, etc.
  • Genetical predisposition

How does CBD Oil help with Fibromyalgia?

Medical studies suggest that CBD can help relieve pain caused by Fibromyalgia. Although current evidence is still limited, the emerging data suggests CBD can have a positive effect on Fibromyalgia.
Researchers cannot decisively say why the compound appears to reduce some symptoms of Fibromyalgia. There are, however, a couple of theories.
CBD is well-known for its pain-relieving effects. Researchers believe that these effects primarily come down to CBD’s effects on the brain. CBD may interrupt he nerve pathways that send signals of pain between the brain and the rest of the body.
CBD, along with other cannabinoids, attaches to the CB1 and CB2 receptors in the brain. CB2 receptor plays a role in managing pain and inflammation.
On entering the body, CBD may attach to CB2 receptors or it may cause the body to produce natural cannabinoids that attach to these receptors. This results in reduced pain and inflammation.
2016 study suggests that some chronic pain syndromes including migraine and fibromyalgia may be caused by a lack of endocannabinoids.

Research on CBD and Fibromyalgia

2011 study studied 56 people with Fibromyalgia in 2 groups 28. The participants of one group were non-cannabis users while the frequency and amount of cannabis use in the other group varied.
2 hours after using cannabis, the second group experienced an increase in sleepiness and reduced pain and stiffness. They also reported slightly higher mental health scores than participants of the first group.

Potential Effects of CBD for Fibromyalgia

CBD can help provide the following benefits to patients with Fibromyalgia:
  • Pain Relief: CBD stimulates the reuptake of adenosine, boosting its levels in the brain and inhibiting pain sensations. By binding to TPRV-1, the receoptor responsible for pain and inflammation, CBD also bocks pain signals from reaching the processing centres in the brain.
  • Improving Mood & Sleep: Fibromyalgia can cause psychological distress leading to anxiety, depression, irritability, and a lack of peaceful sleep. CBD’s anxiolytic properties can reduce the overall stress and fatigue in the body, leading to restful sleep.
