Recovery from CFS: 50 Personal Stories Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Our 20 year old daughter has had chronic fatigue syndrome for over four years and we have tried treatment programs on offer by medical practitioners and a number of alternative therapists without any real success to date. A couple of months ago, I came across Alexandra Barton's book and found it to be very well written, easy to read and full of fresh ideas in terms of what other people have done to get on top of CFS. In addition, after reading the book I had a number of questions relating to our daughter that I emailed through to the author, and she very kindly got back to me with some more helpful information that we plan to use. Thank you Alexandra for putting this wonderful resource together and for being so committed to helping other people with CFS.Graeme Knight, Perth, Western Australia

Recovery from CFS - 50 Personal Stories is a simple collection of recovery stories from people who have recovered from CFS/ME. Men, women and children from six different countries who were all diagnosed with CFS/ME and who were ill for between 2 and 25 years, have written their own individual and very different accounts of their return to good health and a normal life. At the end of each account they have offered advice, suggested helpful books and websites, and many have even given contact details for readers needing support.The foreword is written by Dr Jacob Teitelbaum, Medical Director of the Fibromyalgia and Fatigue Centers, Inc. USA. Dr Teitelbaum had CFS himself as a medical student and is one of the world's foremost experts in CFS. Two of the stories are written by doctors, including that of Dr Clare Fleming who edited two reports from the UK National Task Force and who contributed to the Action for ME rehabilitation courses. There is also the miraculous story of canoeist Anna Hemmings who returned to win the world championship Gold medal nine months after recovering from CFS. 20% of the book proceeds go to CFS/ME research
