A very sensible self-help book for people suffering from fibromyalgia. The book includes appropriate exercise and innovative hormone treatments. -- Dr. Richard L. Strub, M.D., Staff Neurologist, Ochsner Clinic

Pam has turned the Great Imitator of medical disorders - Fibromyalgia - into a better understood and hopefully self-controlled medical problem. -- Dr. Thomas H. Givens, M.D.

About the Author

"My very difficult journey for the past years in this health battle titled "fibromyalgia" has taken a complete turn around. I am very elated with my new health status, and that is the main reason for writing this book.

I want to share my success. My goal is to help prevent the bad things that happened to me from happening to anyone else. Through many years of pain and perseverance, I have found such an abundance of relief that I am bubbling over to share with anyone suffering from this life-altering malady.

I want to share hard-won knowledge with the hope that you might also enjoy a dramatic change in your pain cycle, and that this change might give you your old self back as it has done for me. I want to tell you how I got to this point.

My wish is that you become assured that you can control the pain of fibromyalgia.

5.0 out of 5 stars Walking a mile in her shoes, February 24, 2001

This review is from: I Conquered Fibromyalgia and Turned Horror Moans Back Into Hormones (Paperback)

I myself am not a sufferer of fibromyalgia, However I'm very close friends with someone who is. I have always sympathized with her but I can't say that I ever really understood her problem before reading this book. While on vacation in New Orleans I heard about this book and I decided that I would bring back a copy for my friend. Before giving it to her I thought I'd read it and maybe I'd get some sort of idea of what her condition really entailed. Boy, did I! Ms. Fitzgerald takes you on a journey of her life and what it is like to be a fibromyalgia sufferer. She MAKES you understand the very real pain these people go through on a daily basis. I read the entire book in one day, and yet I remember putting the book down several times so I could tell my husband another one of the outrageous things that happened to this woman at the hands of doctors who didn't know what they were doing. I'm so happy that she finally was able to find relief from her pain with the help of at least a few competent doctors. Her story was truely inspiring! I recommend this book to anyone who has fibromyalgia, as well as to anyone who knows someone with the disorder. Those of us who have friends and family suffering from the disorder want to do all we can to help. Reading this book and understanding that what they are going through is very real, may be the best thing we can do for them. Congratulations Ms. Fitzgerald on a job well done!

5.0 out of 5 stars New Orleans TV features a story--changes my life, January 24, 2002

Mona Dove (Louisiana) - See all my reviews

This review is from: I Conquered Fibromyalgia and Turned Horror Moans Back Into Hormones (Paperback)

I heard about this book on the medical news segment on TV in New Orleans. The author and three physicians who read the book were interviewed. Two of the physicians were from Ochsner Foundation Hospital which immediately caught my attention. The rhuematologist stated that things are turning around in the scientific community and there are very reputable investigators now really working on this neuro-transmitter, neuro-hormone aspect of the condition of fibromyalgia. The neurologist said that getting on hormones that mimic the body is a valid thing to do. The GYN also agreed with the book by stating that he felt that the natural hormones could help fibromyalgia to improve! I applaud this book because I had a partial hysterectomy and had not felt right after. After reading the book and trying the hormones recommended it change my life. I feel better, have plenty of energy, and sleep soundly. I even lost weight I had gained after having the hysterectomy. This book has all the answers to what I needed and is very imformative and encouraging. The book offers a website and email address to the author and she answers questions from readers. I have seen myself and others benefit greatly from what we learned from this book. I want to thank the authors for sharing the story of one woman's struggle and I am so grateful she shared how she conquered her disease in a great book!

5.0 out of 5 stars I Could Not Put It Down Until I Finished It !, January 20, 2001

By 

Janice Berger Crochet (Elberta, Alabama United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: I Conquered Fibromyalgia and Turned Horror Moans Back Into Hormones (Paperback)

My experience with Fibromyalgia began 11 years ago. My mother told me about Pam Fitzgerald after watching Medical Watch on television. She told me a woman had found a cure for fibromyalgia. I bought the book and started reading it the same day. I couldn't put it down until I had finished it. I empathized with everything she had gone through,having experienced many of the same problems myself. I am eager to try Pam's remedies. Everything she says makes sense to me! The puzzle is finally coming together! I am thankful she has shared this life changing information with us all!
