Fibromyalgia
Fibrositis literally means inflammation of connective tissue and though the term fibrositis is often used synonymously and interchangably with the term fibromyalgia. However, FMS (the acronym for fibromyalgia syndrome) does not involve inflammation.

Does fibrositis actually exist as a medical disorder, separate and distinct from fibromyalgia? It would not appear so. The word fibrositis apparently came into use a number of years ago due to the fact that very little was known about the nature and causes of fibromyalgia syndrome.
