For many diseases in our world, we are finally learning that treatments using only allopathic or only homeopathic remedies are seldom the best approach in and of themselves. Much of the confusion has come from the polarized arguments of both sides attempting to defend their points of view, but like most truths the answers are often found in the middle ground, hence "integrative medicine." I found this book, at 448 pages, to be very comprehensive and I highly recommend it for anyone searching for a balanced approach for the treatment of these diseases.

One of the best books on the subject. It was almost as if it was written from my own experiences.
I connected with everything they spoke of. I absolutely am keeping it for my reference when ever I need to speak to my doctor or I need validation. It made me feel good that there was absolutely another person going through what I'm going through with this devastating disease.

This is by far one of the best books I've read on fibromyalgia...and I've read many. This author obviously understands what we go through on a daily basis and has taken a multi-disciplinary approach to getting well. I love her wisdom and sharing of her obvious expertise in unraveling how to get well and what works AND what doesn't. Good quality book and very well priced.

A nurse recommended this to me, as I've had FM for 10 years now. I was really helped by Dr Devin Starlynal's "Fibromyalgia Advocate" and seeing her name associated with this book gave me more assurance there was good information here. The authors write first person stories and more fact focused pieces in a combination that keeps it very interesting. Like Dr. Starlynal's books this does not promote a single theory or cure but shows the range of thinking on these disorders. I had not made the connection with CFS & CMP but it certainly bears out in talking with others. This is a very comprehensive and up to the minute book, wish I had it 10 years ago

I bought so many books that had bits & pieces of good information over the years, but then I finally found your books. LOVE every one!! If I have a question or wonder about something going on with my Fibro body, I grab my books and feel much better after looking up what I need. Of course always feeling much better reading and remembering I'm NOT Alone in this daily fight!! I have actually taken my book to many doctor appointments and schooled them on things that they didn't know. I let one of my doctors borrow one book to look through that I had taken to an appointment, and she was impressed and absorbed some of your knowledge herself.

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You for all your time & work to you put into your books. I can't believe you could accomplish what you did being a Fibromite yourself. Traci Mersch xoxo
