Book Review - Fibromyalgia Up Close and Personal

Fibromyalgia Up Close and Personal by Dr Mark Pellegrino

Dr Pellegrino has always been one of my favourite writers and it has been my pleasure to work with him on various articles I've written on FM over the years. He has cared for over 15,000 FM patients during the course of his medical career and is one of the leading experts on fibromyalgia, as well as being an FM survivor himself.

His fully comprehensive book covers all aspects of fibromyalgia including diagnosis, research, exercise, medication, nutritional approaches, alternative medicine, how to get a good night’s sleep, fibro fog, FM in children, post-traumatic FM, and how to handle FM all sorts of life situations like at work, on holiday or when you become a parent.

His style is approachable and easy to read with excellent examples and analogies to explain difficult points. It can feel like you're sitting in his office having a conversation with him while he explains the various topics clearly and concisely with his renowned light-hearted humour.

This is a great book to invest in, as it will tell you everything you need to know about FM and how to cope with it in daily life.

Fibromyalgia: Up Close and Personal by Dr Mark Pellegrino (2005) is available from FMA UK priced at £25.00.
