In a fresh approach to hope and healing, Tami Stackelhouse shares what she has learned from a decade of taking her life back from her fibromyalgia diagnosis.

Key Points

• I believe fibromyalgia does not need to be a life-ending illness.
• I believe there are ways for every person with fibromyalgia to feel better.
• As patients, the more we know, the better we can advocate for ourselves.
• I believe in laughter! We need humor and a lightness that makes life worth living.
• I also value beauty, grace, self-care, and just being kind to one another.
• I believe fibromyalgia is like blind men describing an elephant! lol
• I believe you get better faster when you slow down.
• I believe the world doesn't revolve around your illness - it revolves around your healing.
• I believe that talking to somebody who understands is a healing activity in itself.
• I also believe that in general, most of us really do know what we should be doing. The challenge is actually doing it.
