Surviving the Holidays with Fibromyalgia & Chronic Pain

Major holidays like Christmas and Hannukah can be hectic even for the healthiest adult. Getting through them when you have a difficult and often unpredictable condition like fibromyalgia can be especially hard.  Our guest for this podcast, Jean McMillan, is a writer with a part-time retail job that kicks into overdrive on Black Friday. Jean suffers from fibromyalgia and chronic pain and has had to drastically revise her celebration style in order to survive the holidays. She shares some tips in her article, "Surviving the Holidays with Fibromyalgia," in our November 2011 issue of Fibromyalgia & Chronic Pain LIFE magazine.  Jean will be talking with us about her key strategies for not just surviving but enjoying the holidays, too!
