Hope and Help for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia

Autor Alan Logan ND, Alison Bested, Russell Howe LLB
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 oct 2008
Hope and Help for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia is designed to educate patients suffering from CFS/FM about their illnesses and to teach them coping skills that will improve their quality of life. And while the good news is that people who suffer from CFS/FM aren't dying, the bad news is that it's going to take a lot of time and effort to get better since there is no one specific treatment that works for everyone.



Some of the issues covered are:


Understanding the symptoms and how diagnoses are made
Causes of CFS/FM and common psychological consequences, including anxiety and depression
The role of stress and how to manage it
The connection between the mind and the body in coping with CFS/FM
The potential of medications, nutrition, and lifestyle changes
The role of complementary medications and dietary supplements in pain management
The value and limitations of alternative and complementary therapies such as acupuncture, massage, homeopathy, and aromatherapy
Legal issues about how to deal with medical and legal problems that may arise if insurance benefits have been stopped
