The true figures regarding fibromyalgia cases may never be known since it is believed that a significant number of individuals with FMS are never properly diagnosed. Also, the diagnosis of fibromyalgia syndrome is far less an occurrence in non western countries, perhaps due a lack of acceptance regarding the disorder.
However, it is estmated that the percentage of the population that develops fibromyalgia is somewhere between one and five percent. How does this percentage translate into raw numbers? In the U.S. alone, the number of individuals with fibromyalgia may exceed ten million and worldwide the number of FMS cases may be more than double this amount. |
