The Role of Infection and Immunization in the Induction of Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia (FM) is presented in approximately 2–8% of the population [1]. It is characterized by a chronic widespread musculoskeletal pain associated with tenderness of at least 11 of 18 defined points of palpitation [1]. Besides pain, fatigue, sleep disturbances, depression, concentration, and memory problems can also be noted in FM patients [1, 2].
