The Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Resource Book,
By Alice Smith (Hill City, KS) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Resource Book and Life Planner Workbook (Paperback)
This is an excellant book for resources. The author has gone above and beyond what any doctor has the time or knowledge to share with his patient. Besides the resources it has recipes to make your own cleaners due to the intolerence of some of the chemicals on the market. Anyone with FMS or CFS would be happy with this book.
