I am a heart patient. Since birth I was diagnosed with Tedrealogy of Fallot with interrupted Aortic arch. Which had been repaired in 1972 in West Germany. My second heart surgery was here in 1997 where I underwent a Pulmonic valve replacement. Now, is this linked in any way with suffering from Fibromyalgia?
Is Tedraology of Fallot linked with Fibromyalgia?
As Fibromyalgia is a condition caused by the nervous system it is possible, that your heart condition could be contributory. The heart is controlled by the Autonomic nervous system and your fibromyalgia could arise from the Autonomic system. As you have Tetrology of Fallot, this would obviously affect the Autonomic system as your blood vessels were 'incorrectly plumbed'. Therefore messages controling heart rate, blood pressure etc would be problomatic. Also with the medical condition you have, oxygen starvation to the nervous system, would also cause problems. Have a look at the Mayo Clinic website. They have some very good information on both conditions.
