Summary
This study is based on clinical findings that some patients with fibromyalgia have a tendency
towards lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol. The hypothesis to be tested in this
study is that the administration of a very low-dose of cortisol which has no side effects
corrects this deficiency and results in an improvement of symptoms
