Resumen:
The main objective has been to explore the experience of women with fibromyalgia in relation to their therapeutic itinerary, to the experience of the diagnosis and the coexistence with the disease. Methodology: phenomenological and constructivist study about six narratives, obtained through semi-structured interviews of a biographical nature and analyzed through content analysis. Results: The narratives were organized following these axes: (a) the problem referring to the first symptoms and the insertion of the person in the health system problem, with the appearance of symptoms and the insertion of the person in the health system, (b) the crux, based on the search for a diagnosis and alterations of the world of daily life that promotes the pain and (c) outcome, treatment. Conclusions: To understand fibromyalgia, it is necessary to apply less medicalizing paradigms and to use bio-psycho-social models that allow the individual experience with and in the disease. We consider it necessary to debate the models and gender roles that cause suffering in women.
