Being very overweight can indeed exacerbate fibromyalgia symptoms. Excess weight puts additional strain on the body, particularly on the muscles, joints, and connective tissues, which can intensify pain and discomfort. Obesity is also associated with increased inflammation, which may worsen fibromyalgia’s widespread pain and fatigue. Additionally, being overweight can lead to other health issues like sleep apnea and depression, which are already common among fibromyalgia patients, further complicating the condition. Therefore, maintaining a healthy weight through diet and exercise is often recommended as part of a comprehensive management plan for those suffering from fibromyalgia.
