Disappointing October 17, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this book looking for information on the long-term management of Graves Disease - lifestyle, diet, and 'alternative' therapies to complement conventional treatment. I was also looking for resources to follow up for more detailed support and information and advice on where to get a second opinion as an alternative to my endocrinologist.
My main gripe is that ALL the resources listed, plus the advice on finding specialists, although extensive, is completely US-based so is of very little use to anyone in the UK. I also found the section on Graves Disease frustrating - although it's obviously accurate and well-researched it's very brief and didn't tell me anything I don't already know from researcing on the internet.
All in all, very disappointing.
Zipped through it! March 11, 2004 12 out of 14 found this review helpful
I just got the book after my husband was diagnosed with an Autoimmune Disease and it's fantastic! So much information and most of all COMPREHENSIBLE. Sometimes the Doctor *does* tell you, but something gets lost in the translation. Mary Shomon re-translates it for you.
