Its extensive set of healing tools included targeted bodywork for painful trigger points and strategies to helpccope with chronic pain and sleep problems and the numbing effects of fibrofog. More than 75 percent of the second edition is new or updated material, including coverage of promising new research on the causes of fibromyalgia, evaluation of new treatments, complete discussions of special issues for women and men, and the latest information on medication. An update of the first edition's popular provider index helps sufferers select those practitioners who will take their complaints seriously and offer knowledgeable treatment advice. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Excellent resource!I have read a lot of books on this subject but none this comprehensive! Most other books I have read are all about a particular doctor's (the author) "cure" for FM. Well Starlanyl & Copeland have included just about every treatment for FM (nutrition, rx meds, supplements, acupuncture, meditation, yoga, acupressure, heat therapy, Tai Chi, and more) so you can be informed, explore, and make decisions about what is right for you.

Cindy Connor Rating: - Fibromyalgia BibleThis book explains fibromyalgia inside and out. There is so much information contained in this book that the doctors never mentioned. It is an excellent resource which I am sharing with my newly-diagnosed neighbor. It proves once and for all that I am not crazy by listing even the most obscure symptoms of this syndrome. I have already highlighted pages and pages of important information I will want to refer to time and time again. Thank goodness for this book. Rating: - Very InformativeI thought the book was a very good follow up to the original version. A great deal of information in a 'question and answer" format that was easy to use for a reference book. Rating:  - Good book for the technical side of thingsI would buy this book again. It has cleared up a lot of questions I had and I like that it's a more technical type of explanation. It has pictures of the body and muscles along with trigger points. The reason I give it a four, is that I think it can be a little too technical. I've had to stop and read a couple things over again so I could understand it better. I'm not a stupid person, but I'm not a doctor either.Overall it's a good choice of reading. Oh, and it was recommended by my doctors office.
