摘      要：There is an impressive body of evidence that low-grade exercise improves the physical and psychological domains of fibromyalgia (FM) [1-7]. However, many FM patients are reluctant to exercise as they tire easily and associate exertion with an increase in pain. Thus the busy clinician needs a simple strategy for motivating their patients. Herein, I advocate the use of a novel questionnaire that enables the clinician to launch a fruitful discussion regarding the initiation and maintenance of a lifelong exercise program.
