Fibromyalgia is a chronic disorder associated with overall body
pain and discomfort. Although the condition is not a variety of
other neurological disorders or even arthritis, it possesses some
of the same symptoms. There are an estimated 10 million Americans
suffering with fibromyalgia, and estimates suggest that three to
six percent of the world's population have symptoms of
fibromyalgia. The medical costs of treatment coupled with lost
productivity have been estimated in the billions of dollars. The
good news is that fibromyalgia is not progressive and is not fatal.
Many sufferers report that the symptoms can improve with treatment
and time. This accessible introduction to the disorder helps
educate both sufferers and caregivers alike to the symptoms,
potential causes, treatments, and outcomes of fibromyalgia.
Addressing both traditional and alternative approaches, Naheed Ali
offers hope and guidance for those seeking both understanding and
possible paths to recovery. He focuses not just on the science and
medicine behind fibromyalgia, but also on living well with it after
diagnosis. Offering tips for lifestyle modifications as well as
advice for caregivers, family, and friends, he ultimately provides
a responsive and hopeful guide to this often misunderstood
condition.
