Fibromyalgia & Chronic Myofascial Pain Devin Starlanyl and Mary Ellen Copeland New Harbinger Publications, Inc ISBN: 1-57224-238-8 Non-Fiction, Health, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Myofascial Pain Reviewed by Dr. Tami Brady

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.
