This study is looking into whether transcutaneous Vagus Nerve Stimulation (tVNS) can help people with fibromyalgia (FM) manage their pain and other symptoms. Fibromyalgia is a condition that causes widespread pain and other issues, and current treatments don't always work well. Researchers believe that stimulating the vagus nerve, which plays a role in how our bodies sense and react to pain, might be a new way to help. You might be able to join if you are between 18 and 80 years old, have had a fibromyalgia diagnosis for at least three months, and your pain level is 4 or higher on a scale of 0 to 10. The main goal is to see if tVNS can reduce pain. The current status of this study is unclear.

Study design

This is an interventional study planning to enroll 60 participants. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the tVNS group or a control group.
