Description

Drawing on decades of experience in treating fibromyalgia, Mayo Clinic Guide to Fibromyalgia offers research-supported, practical strategies that can help anyone with fibromyalgia live their best life. From personal stories of people living with fibromyalgia to the compassionate expertise of its medical editors, this book seeks to connect with people who have fibromyalgia in a way they may not have experienced from loved ones, or even doctors. From there, readers will learn about what fibromyalgia is — and isn’t — and find solace in knowing that they’re not alone in the challenges that they face.

This book outlines practical strategies shown to be effective in managing fibromyalgia, with worksheets throughout designed to help guide readers toward finding the best mix of strategies for managing their symptoms. The conclusion allows readers to put everything they’ve learned into an actionable daily plan they can start using right away.
