Opis

Utilizing evidence-based research, this revolutionary source explores the difficult diagnosis and management of the controversial syndrome of fibromyalgia. Carefully guiding physicians through the steps leading to diagnosis, the book emphasizes targeting the underlying fibromyalgia syndrome rather than treating each of its symptoms individually. It advises how to handle patient distress, how to motive behavior change, and when to refer patients elsewhere. One of the only books to publish post-FDA approval of the first fibromyalgia drugs, it explores both pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical treatment methods.
