A great book with lots of good information and helpful tips.
12 April 2010
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I'm a chronic pain patient and have been researching anything I can find that's helpful to my situation since I've been in pain. Yet, even after reading more books about pain management than I could count on my fingers, this one still managed to provide me with a lot of different points and bits of information that I had never read anywhere else. As with all "For Dummies" books, the way it's laid out is ingenious. It makes it super easy to read just a random paragraph or from cover to cover. The layout even makes it easier to simply skim through entire chapters at a time and still get the most out of it.
I would recommend this book to anyone struggling with chronic pain. In fact, I really can't think of anything bad to say about it. Unlike many books on the subject, this one doesn't only cover homeopathic ways to treat pain. Let's face it - some of us actually need to turn to prescription medications for pain relief, and this book talks about all the various options available to treat pain. Pick up a copy - I'm willing to bet that no matter how knowledgeable you are on the subject of your pain and pain management, you're still going to learn something new from this book.

Dummies?

Format:Paperback
The title put me off, although I understand it is from the "Dummies" collection.
Chronic pain is not a simplistic disorder or disease and should not be treated as such. I feel that including it in the 'dummies' set of books minimizes the impact of true disabling chronic pain.
To understand the impact chronic pain can have on a life I would suggest A PAINED LIFE, a chronic pain journey. A Pained Life
