Dopamine in Fibromyalgia & Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Dopamine has different roles in different areas of your brain. In the thinking areas, it makes you able to focus your attention. Low levels of dopamine in this area are linked with ADD/ADHD. In the movement areas, it helps you control how your body moves. Extremely low levels here lead to Parkinson’s disease, which is characterized by tremors and problems with balance and coordination.
