Pain catastrophizing, depression, and anxiety in fibromyalgia patients

Psychiatric findings may be seen in Fibromyalgia (FM) patients. We aimed to evaluate the relationship between anxiety, depression, and pain catastrophizing in FM patients and normal individuals. The study group consisted of FM patients and a healthy control group. Socio-demographic data form, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ), and Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) were administered to the participants. It was evaluated whether there was a statistical difference between the groups in terms of BDI, BAI, PCS, VAS, and FIQ. Of the 178 patients in our study, 85 were FM patients and 93 were control groups. The BDI, BAI, PCS, PCSH (PCS Helplessness), PCSM (PCS Magnification), and PCSR (PCS Rumination) were found to be higher in FM patients compared to the control group. The FM patients were found to have moderate depression according to the BDI score (18.7±10.6) and moderate anxiety according to the BAI score (16.5±9.9). There was a positive correlation between BDI and BAI, FIQ and VAS, PCS and BDI, BAI and FIQ, and BAI and FIQ. It was found that the FM patients had “moderate” depression and anxiety, and their level of pain catastrophizing increased with the increase in depression and anxiety severity.
