alternative and conventional medicine, along with the latest research on
experimental options like medical marijuana. Since many health care
providers have limited fibromyalgia expertise, The FibroManual
includes a thoroughly sourced "health care provider guide" that enables
readers to help their doctors help them.
Alleviate fibromyalgia symptoms in four simple steps (Rest, Repair,

This accessible and empowering resource provides essential information
about understanding and treating fibromyalgia from a physician who, as
both patient and provider, understands the illness from the inside.
