A hands-on approach to managing a debilitating condition. This valuable resource cuts through the medical jargon in other books and focuses on the most important things readers need to know to understand and manage fibromyalgia. Readers learn how to assemble a team of healthcare providers, communicate with doctors, identify the triggers that lead to symptoms, set and track sleep and diet regimens, and much more.
• According to the Mayo Clinic, six to eight million Americans have fibromyalgia
• Dr. Bradley is one of the country’s leading fibromyalgia researchers
• Lynne Matallana’s personal story was highlighted in a feature article in the May 2003 issue of Newsweek

Customer Rating:  
Summary: Disappointing
Comment: I've bought books on bipolar disorder that spent less time on my mental health then this book did. The NFA's stance has always been "antidepressants and lifestyle changes" and this book goes right along with it. Very little info on pharmacutical options. Very basic and very disappointing.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Maybe too 'idiot' oriented
Comment: The book is good for an overall idea of fibromyalgia, but it doesn't actually contain much more than I found on websites, so far. I'm hoping to find more useful information once I have the chance to fully read this book.
Customer Rating:

Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellent Resource
Comment: I have Fibro and have spent a great deal of time researching the subject,
This book explains EVERYTHING you want to know!
I highly reccomend it
Customer Rating:
Summary: Not an Idiot anymore
Comment: The book is set up in a very consise manner making it easy to find a topic when the need arises. It offers an intelligent explanation for our friends and relatives who just don't understand what sufferers of Fibromyalgia go through.
Thank you Lynne Matallana for making my days more tolerable.
