January edition of Fibromyalgia Focus

In our January edition we have some exciting features including A New Look for a New Year, where June Chivers tries out shopping for new clothes with the help of a personal shopper. Read about how she got on and how using a personal shopper can save you so much time and energy. It certainly sounds like my kind of shopping trip!

Alison Adams, author of the book The Natural Recovery Plan for Fibromyalgia, shares her personal story and views about the possible underlying cause of fibromyalgia and how she has regained her life using natural remedies and detoxification. If you are concerned about toxicity and prefer to use natural remedies then check out this article.

Ever thought of trying Reiki? Michelle Corns, who shared her personal story last month, tells us about the history behind Reiki, what it involves and how she has personally benefited from it.

Have you heard about the new fit note replacing the old sick note? In our UK & World section we explain what all this is about, then researcher Elaine Heaver from The Bath Centre for Pain Research tells us about her Ph.D. research study into how the new fit note has been received by GPs, patients and employers.

If you are looking for the science stuff then check out Dr Colin Dell's latest FM research reviews and an article on whether the medication Mirtazapine is beneficial for treating the symptoms of fibromyalgia.

We also have all our regular items including recipes by Alyssa, life tips from Bridie, your letters and news from local groups around the UK. You can find out how to subscribe here.
