Having suffered from M.E (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome)for the last 3 years, and still trying to come to terms with it, I have found this book to be a valuable source, and havent been able to put it down. It outlines symptoms that I have had and have not been able to fully explain what they were. I think quite a few Doctors out there should read this book to get a better understanding of the illness and to be able to help millions of patients who have been trying for years to get some support. I am still looking for that Doctor!

When diagnosed with CFS, I didn't know anything about it. I immediately decided to learn all I could about this syndrome, and this book provided more information than I ever hoped for. The authors truly understand what it is like to have CFS, and absolutely validated my feelings and symptoms. The book offers information about prescription drugs, herbal remedies and vitamins that is thorough and helpful. I am glad to report that I am feeling much better after taking some of the recommended supplements, which are not mentioned in any of the other literature I found on this subject. If you are going to buy one book about CFS, this is the one to get. It's the only one you'll need.

This book is one of the most highly informative books. If more patients read it, we would be fielding fewer questions! Gail Kansky President, National CFIDS Foundation, Inc.

This book was too long and I just got tired of it all after awhile. Where is it going? What can it do for me? Why am I reading this? Read more
