Description

Why a Course on Living with Fibromyalgia?

Because there is no cure.  Six years ago, my career was derailed by a fibromyalgia flare up so intense it left me bedridden for more than a year.   My physician believed I would never work again, but I was not ready to surrender to a lifetime of pain and I was unwilling to risk getting hooked on pain medications.   So I researched everything I could find about fibromyalgia and the individual symptoms I was experiencing.  I assembled the information, and used what I found to change the way I live.  Today, I am almost pain free.  I sleep better, I awaken with more energy, I am working on my own terms, and remarkably, I am enjoying life more today than I did before my flare up.  With only rare exceptions, I am medication free.

This course will help you understand the complicated spectrum of biological, physical, environmental, nutritional, social, emotional, and  even spiritual factors that  can influence your condition.  While we cannot assume that my approach will work for you,  I am hopeful that by sharing the strategies myself and others use to reduce pain, minimize negative stressors, and keep health care affordable will offer you a smorgasboard of alternative options to consider in conjunction with external advice from health care and financial professionals  as you develop your own unique strategy for living with your chronic condition and embracing a healthier, more symptom free lifestyle.


*The content in this course is not intended to replace medical treatment, nor is it designed to diagnose, prevent, treat, or cure disease. Personal health and the factors influencing the success and the affordability of any health care approach  are complex.  The results and testimonies shared herein are unique to individual circumstances.  Because each of our situations is unique, there is no guarantee that you will experience the same results by making any of the changes identified herein.
