| book description |

'This book will give you excellent insight into the psychological stages of this severe illness and how to navigate them. A must-read for those who choose to reclaim control over their own lives!' - Jacob Teitelbaum, M.D., bestselling author of From Fatigued to Fantastic! Although there is no known cure for fibromyalgia (FM), a combination of medicine and lifestyle changes can be very effective in managing and alleviating your symptoms. Living with Fibromyalgia introduces a revolutionary plan to help you adapt to this chronic illness. Divided into four steps, the plan involves: assessing reactions to this life-disrupting illness; securing adequate professional and emotional care; rebuilding your life and your relationships with others; and, stabilizing fibromyalgia with stress and crisis management.Written by a lifelong FM survivor and a physician, this is the first book to address the unique social and emotional challenges presented by fibromyalgia. Living with Fibromyalgia discusses how you can: understand and manage your symptoms; overcome blocks, setbacks, and pitfalls; cope with the stigma of having a chronic illness; re-create a satisfying way of life for you and your family despite FM; rebuild your career and your social life; and, redefine your self-worth and more. Real stories from people living with FM are also featured. This empowering guide will help all those affected by FM build a more rewarding life.
