Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), which can include constipation, diarrhea, frequent abdominal pain, abdominal gas, and nausea is found in roughly 40 to 70% of FM patients. In addition, Gastrointestinal Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), is equally common in people with FM. This can include heartburn, chest pain, regurgitation, indigestion, and a chronic cough, among other symptoms.
