The Number One Natural Fatigue Product!
|
A site
built with care: up-to-date news, archives, excellent links, support
groups, chat rooms, an events page, a bulletin board of helpful
items for sale or barter, contests, links to personal homepages,
even "fibro-friendly" recipes - it's all here. |
A
survivors' club. It's personal and optimistic, with a sense of
humor. Has all the standard medical info, a book list, and a guest
book where you can reply to the entries. |
A
wonderful resource for information about many issues that will be very
beneficial for men and women concerning most forms of fatigue,
fibromyalgia etc: |
Different
kinds of support groups (including for teens and loved ones). Along
with stories and poems, this site has considerable medical
information and good articles about fibromyalgia. Excellent links
and bookstore. Encouraging words from the creators are a plus. |
Has
detailed symptom explanations not found on most sites. Nice extras,
such as a scale for measuring pain. There's quick access to an
online support group and fibromyalgia books sold by amazon.com. This
site also covers chronic myofascial pain syndrome (MPS). |
Has many
features: mailing list, chats, penpals, books, and a handy link to
search for doctors. Also has lots of ads. The articles and links are
decent, but medical information is thin. Member of WebRing, a useful
navigational tool for tying together related websites (here, of
course, fibromyalgia sites). |
Emphasis
on treatment in Canada. Has all the basics: info, articles, links,
mailing list, a support group. Not found on other sites is a list of
speakers. Basic information also in French. |
The site
is a little confusing. Articles are new, which not every site can
boast of, and there are links for conferences and advocacy. There's
also a list of doctors, but it seems to be incomplete This site has
resources for chronic fatigue syndrome, multiple chemical
sensitivity, and Gulf War syndrome, as well as fibromyalgia. |
Good
information, but not up to date. For both fibromyalgia and chronic
fatigue syndrome (CFS). |
Has
German- and Turkish-language information. It's in English, too, but
for English speakers there are many alternative sites. |
Fibromyalgia
and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) are both covered here. One of the
best sets of medical articles is here, as well as links to products
and treatments you can purchase from PainReliever.com. Cartoons
lighten the mood. The design sometimes deters swift navigation. |
Arthritis
Web Site gave this their seal of approval. As the website of an
institution, this site contains a mission statement, grant
applications and a list of projects being funded. Best to go
elsewhere for medical information and links. |
There is
information in Spanish. Audiotapes available. You can also join and
receive a newsletter. This site could be useful if you live in the
Washington area. |
More
oriented to disability links than fibromyalgia patients. |
A
personal homepage with a focus on alternative medicine. Part of the
site under construction, so the jury is out. It may be most helpful
for sufferers of vulvodynia. |
This is a
personal homepage, and headquarters of a support group in Iowa.
There is a good list of support groups in each state, too. There are
pop-up ads every time you go to a new page. |
Bottom
line: similar to other sites that provide more information. |
For both
fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. Very well organized, but
largely consists of information for sale. Run by Dr. Jacob
Teitelbaum, a physician who specializes in holistic medicine. |
Lots on
the exercise and diet program that the site-creator follows. Not
much medical information, however. |
Part of
Health World Online, hence not dedicated strictly to fibromyalgia. A
few good articles. Much better as an all-around medical site. |
