 Rating:  - Excellent book to readHealing Fibromyalgia is a great book with new information about Cymbalta, including real life examples of how to use it and what to expect. The authors discuss traditional and holistic medicine very nicely. They explain why fibromyalgia happens so clearly, I wish every doctor could read it. Rating:  - Started strong, but then sends mixed messagesMy background: An often debilitated Fibromyalgic of 10 years who has tried numerous treatments, supplements, medication, and has done extensive personal research studying the body, mind and how it all works together. The beginning of the book has a good amount of info detailing the scientific basis of FMS and its triggers, although it is not quite comprehensive. There is a good amount of discussion about tests, overlapping conditions, and interacting with doctors. For the most part, ...

I am a realistic optimist, not a "pie in the sky" one. To believe is not to receive! I stay positive most of the time, and I'm a calm, mild-mannered person.

Rating: - Thank you Dr. Trock from Barbara AnzellottiI read Dr. Trock's book about healing Fibromyalgia after seeing an article about him in a local newspaper. It was the first book I've ever read on Fibro that states even though each patient has different symptoms and stressors, the condition usually stems from previous central nervous system trama or prolonged stress. I was totally impressed by the scope of his knowledge and in my opinion, he has a lot of new and innovative ideas regarding the diagnosis and treatment of this condition. He advocates ... Read More Rating: - other options always welcomedIf you're interested in using the new durg Lyrica for fibromyalgia, this is a wonderful book. It's the first book I've seen that explains what Lyrica is and how to integrate it into a well balanced treatment program. The authors also give details about a new treatment on the horizon for fibromyalgia called rTMS (repetivitve trascranial magnetic stimulation), and other options I'd never heard before. It's the best book I've read on the subject.
