• 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 REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 4.5 based on 10 reviews)

Disappointing  
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.

Maybe too 'idiot' oriented  
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.

Not an Idiot anymore  
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.
