My mother has had long-standing hypertension and diabetes since 2008, along with a past history of migraine, cervical spondylosis, and carpal tunnel syndrome. She now has widespread body pain affecting different areas, including the knees, arms, and the back of the head, and is under treatment from multiple specialists. Despite several medications for pain, nerve symptoms, and other conditions, her discomfort persists, and she also seems anxious during consultations. Could this be fibromyalgia or a psychological condition contributing to her symptoms? We would like guidance on the next steps and a clearer treatment plan.
