Product Details

Product Description

From Library Journal

An estimated 26 million Americans have either fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS), myofascial pain syndrome (MPS), or both in the form of an FMS/MPS complex. The volume by Starlanyl, a physician who specializes in the research and treatment of FMS/MPS and who has both conditions, and Copeland, a writer and FMS/MPS patient, discuss all aspects of both disorders. They also offer information on the latest medications, tips for bodywork, and suggestions for coping with family and work, getting support, and dealing with the healthcare system. Appendixes include lists of agencies and organizations and of audio and video aids. Both books are recommended for consumer health collections, but if only one can be purchased, Starlanyl and Copeland's work has the edge due to its greater scope and more comprehensive coverage.?Janet M.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must-have for FMS sufferers, Jan 15 2005
By Tracy M. (British Columbia Canada) - See all my reviews
I have had fibromyalgia for 16 years, and still refer to this book very regularly. It not only gives options for treatments to try, but it includes every possible symptom that you may be experiencing. I have lent this book out to many people who have, in turn, purchased it for their own use, and have shared much of the information with my "team of angels"; my doctor, my physiotherapist, my massage therapist and my chiropractor. I have six or seven books on FMS and this is by far the most useful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fibromyalgia and Chronic Myofascial Pain, Oct 8 2007
By Tami Brady "Whole Health Therapist" (Calgary, Canada) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Few books actually change a person's life or way of thinking. Fibromyalgia & Chronic Myofascial Pain actually did that for me. Like many people with FM and/or CMP, I went through a long, painful (both physically and emotionally painful) period of diagnosis and an even longer period of denial. I felt that since everyone else seemed to question my invisible symptoms that it was in my best interests to try to ignore what was really going on in my body and in my mind. So I suffered in silence and isolation with only my family knowing the diagnosis and no one really knowing the extent of my situation.

Reading Fibromyalgia & Chronic Myofascial Pain was like having a truly meaningful conversation with someone in the same situation as me. Someone who had not only accepted that these conditions actually exist but also had developed real life strategies to deal with everyday life and unexpected flare ups. For the first time since this roller coaster ride started, I felt empowered.

5.0 out of 5 stars Most helpful book I've found, Jul 20 2006
By sharkmom (San Diego, California, USA) - See all my reviews
I have had fibromyalgia for a very long time, and have read everything I could find.....but this book is a "must have". It not only describes the disease, but gives the "whys" and practical solid suggestions for the pain. It is not like many other books trying to sell vitamins or a quick remedy. I found it especially helpful when it discussed connections to other diseases---helps to know many are related in order to coordinate treatment.
