CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 4.5 based on 11 reviews)
| gatherer of information by Jenny V. Sellman (Kansas) 5 Stars July 04, 2009 I have firbomyalgia and I can't get enough information about this diblitating condition. It has interfered in my life in every aspect. The more information I can get the better I understand what is going on. This book was a good read. It goes into my library.
| | sent it back by Mary L. Schmidt 2 Stars April 04, 2009 I sent this back because it did not have tools to make my life better. It just had other persons experiences.
| | Great Book by Peter Jandreau 5 Stars March 16, 2009 The book had alot of useful information and for once there was actually a section on men having fibro.
| | A must read for anyone with fibro by Dena M. Funaro 5 Stars March 28, 2008 Anyone with fibro will find this book invaluable. It took me perhaps 2 weeks to read this book. I found out more in 2 weeks than I would have in years of consulting different doctors and exploring different types of pharmaceutical and alternative treatments. I highly recommend it.
| | What a wonderful book!!! by Mia (Michigan, USA) 5 Stars February 06, 2008 I have read many books on Fibromyalgia and none of them really provided any useful information. They ranged from too much medical jargon to too many depressing stories about patients who were confined to a wheelchair with no hope of getting any better.
After reading the first few chapters of this book, I knew it was different. I love that each chapter is written by a different author, a doctor or specialist in whatever area is being discussed. This really gives the book a different feel from any others. I have learned so much already (and I'm not even through it) that will make a huge difference in my life. For example, in my continued effort to find help in handling the pain and challenges associated with Fibro, I have gone from one rheumatologist and neurologist to another with little benefit. Now I know that I am approaching it all wrong and which doctors and specialists would be more beneficial to my healing. I also appreciate the personal accounts of real people with the disease that are interspersed throughout this book. They are not the depressing tales of people with no hope to get better who have poor outlooks on life. Instead they are about people who have the real struggles, feel the same pain and trials that all of us who suffer do, but reflect on them in positive ways and on what has helped and hindered their progress. I realize that this disease may never be "cured" per say, but with the help of a book like this, I know that all of those out there suffering can find real hope and help which is, after all, the most important thing to all of us.
