Query: Relief, Validation, Understanding, A future

Until I read this book, recommended by a friend of mine who suffers also from FMS, I didn't feel I had any of the above to look forward to in my life. I was ready to give up on ever having a future, days without pain, confusion, understanding or ever see a relief even for a day or two from my pain. I was ready to give up on life period! Chronic Pain does that to you I know. But reading Dr. Starlanyls book opened up some new horizons to me. More than knowing what was happening to me, it was wonderful to hear her supportiveness, validation and understanding that could only come from a physician who has the syndrome as well. Most of all this book gave me the strength to not give up the fight. Dr. Starlanyl you are a godsend!
