First, second (fourth week), and third (eighth week) measurements of total myalgic score (TMS), Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire items (FIQ-5 and FIQ-6), the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS), Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS), P300 latency, and amplitudes. Comparisons were performed using Wilcoxon test
