About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“This guide to fibromyalgia, written by experts, covers pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment guidelines and provides patient-centered information for clinicians to hand out in their practice. … The book is written for anybody who cares for patients with fibromyalgia, mostly primary care providers. … The clinical handout section is particularly useful and includes both sample chart documentation and patient information handouts for the disease and treatments. This is a comprehensive review of a difficult yet common disease that most practitioners find frustrating to treat.” (Lesley M. Davila, Doody’s Review Service, December, 2010)
“This book is designed to provide clinicians with up-to-date information on the pathogenesis of fibromyalgia, clinical evaluation and guidelines for effective treatment. … this is a useful reference book on Fibromyalgia which is easy to read. Although intended for clinicians, many patients will find it useful.” (International Painful Bladder Foundation e-Newsletter, Issue 24, January, 2011)
