Fibromyalgia has no known cause or cure and is impossible to detect
through blood tests or other diagnostic techniques. Because it's so
difficult to pinpoint or alleviate, fibromyalgia tends to cause
guilt and shame in those who suffer from it.
Barbara Keddy examines the experiences of 20 female sufferers,
and also investigates the disease within larger societal contexts
of gender, class, and race. By taking an already existing
personality theory (the highly sensitive person) developed by
Elaine Aron and relating this theory to a specific physical
condition, the author emphasizes societal and family pressures on
women to overextend themselves to the detriment of their
health.
