A subgroup of patients who fulfilled the current criteria required to characterise fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) have an asymmetric pain and distinct findings on sensitivity examination compared to classical symmetric fibromyalgia patients. This clinical condition is called Dysfunctional Pain Syndrome with Asymmetrical Exteroceptive Sensitivity (FMS-DPSAES).This study focuses on the compari…
