Since its publication in April 2014, Dr Myhill s guide to understanding and overcoming CFS/ME has become a must-read for sufferers from this poorly understood condition. As the 99 5-star reviewers on Amazon say: This is the first book I ve read that really provides hope for medical treatment of CFS/ME ; If you have CFS or ME this is the book you absolutely must read. I have been suffering from CFS for over two years and I don t know where I would have been without this goldmine of information and guidance ; Applying the advice in this book is gradually changing my life and I can t recommend it highly enough to anyone else who suffers from this terrifying illness. Thank you Dr Myhill I will forever be in your debt. But in those two years both new research and new clinical findings have thrown further light onto a condition that for sufferers is life-stopping but for many doctors is all in the mind .

The biggest challenge in caring for someone living with dementia is that the most common symptom for those fighting the disease is forgetfulness, whereas we remember. Week by week we build up a backlog of bad memories that contaminate us, but which the other party cannot recall even two minutes after they happened. Agnes Juhasz, writing with great humanity and understanding, draws on many years of working with people with dementia to show how she has learned to communicate and work collaboratively with sufferers and find the essence of the person hiding behind the symptoms of the disease. Based around real-life stories she shows what she has found works and does not work, and candidly reveals her own emotions of frustration, irritation and sometimes amusement, and how she has learnt to cope with these. Her honesty in describing the highs and lows of being a carer is an inspiration to all those struggling to find the positive side of an illness we have all come to fear. Contents Introduction; Tight-rope walking on my nerves; It is not going to work this way; Personal insults; Who has been fired from the factory; Small victories; Terrifying numbers; Survival techniques; Care home versus in-home care; The most not do list; There is always someone behind dementia; All my respects to the cactuses; The secret language; Ive got bloody dementia!; Stigmas, myths, facts; Shattered minds; Self-assessment; Finale

COPD: Innovative Breathing Techniques: a natural, stress-free approach to coping with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease using the Brice Method

Paul Brice

Award-winning therapist Sally Baker shares her professional and personal experience of what it takes to survive trauma, providing practical guidance in the techniques she has refined working with an international array of clients - hypnotherapy, brain wave recursive therapy, EFT and more. To combat physical nasties we need a strong immune system. To combat negative life events we need resilience. In&nbsp;The Getting of Resilience from the Inside Out,&nbsp;award-winning therapist Sally Baker gives us a practical guide to developing a wider understanding of resilience and to fostering it so that we have the essential perseverance and drive to emerge successfully when confronted with life's inevitable and often unexpected challenges. Sally explores some of the key family dynamics that can result in unhelpful ways of thinking about oneself which may undermine the natural development of resilience and in its place impose a cycle of self-sabotaging behaviour. Coping strategies, such as heightened anxiety, non-confrontational behaviour, people-pleasing habits, along with 'adult failure to thrive', are just a few of the learnt strategies often originally forged out of powerlessness in response to less than ideal early life experiences. These strategies however can be re-assessed and the misplaced guilt, shame and self-blame that have affixed these behaviours, often for many years, can be resolved and released, making way for the getting of resilience from the inside out. Based on extensive experience and case studies from Sally Baker's own therapy practice of working with many clients over 20 years, this book provides gentle, perceptive insight along with tried and tested self-help therapeutic tools, free additional online resources and the expert guidance needed to take the reader through the stages from negativity to self-empowerment.

A straightforward nutritional plan combining the health benefits of the Paleo and Ketogenic diets Dr Sarah Myhill has been helping sufferers from debilitating chronic conditions for over 30 years with an approach that combines all the benefits of current scientific knowledge and medical testing and treatments with an expanding appreciation of the importance of nutrition and lifestyle. Her book with Craig Robinson, Prevent and Cure Diabetes, saw her arrive at the conclusion that the diet we should all be eating is one that combines Paleo principles (eating pre-agricultural, seasonal foods) with Ketogenic ones (fuel the body with fats and fibre, not with carbs). That book tells us why; now in this down-to-earth, highly practical dietary guide, Sarah and Craig tell us how. This accessible shopping template, meal planner, and preparation guide handily demystifies the PK diet. It’s not a collection of detailed, step-by-step recipes, but a revolutionarily simple approach to dietary health.

A Patient's Guide to Navigating the Labyrinth of Diagnosis and Treatment What if, at this very moment, hundreds of thousands of people were unaware that they were living in midst of an epidemic so large that it dwarfs the AIDS epidemic by sheer numbers in North America? What if this epidemic cut across all populations: women and men, children and adults, the infirm and the fit, the very poor and the very rich? And what if many of our best doctors in cities like New York, London, Paris, Dublin, Sydney and San Francisco were unaware of this very same problem? This epidemic is upon us. It lurks in the most seductive of locations outside our cities – sought after vacation places frequented by urban dwellers. These are the favorite getaway spots for the often millions of people who work in our city centers, many of whom are unaware that they are at risk of infection from this insidious microbe. The epidemic in question is a tick-borne disease, namely the spirochete bacterium Borrelia burdorferi, or Lyme disease, as it is more commonly known. Along with a number of other co-infection pathogens, including deadly viruses, this bacterium has become the scourge of the Northern Hemisphere and is now spreading into Asia and even Australia. In this book, Dr. Bernard Raxlen attempts to answer many of those questions through the perspectives of patients and physicians from around the world, exploring the reasons for the medical myopia that blocks accurate diagnosis and treatment of tick-borne disease. He draws on his thirty years in the field and more than forty thousand clinical hours listening to and treating TBD patients and also invites other expert physicians in TBD from around the world to share their experiences and expertise. His recovered former patient, co-collaborator and Lyme advocate, Allie Cashel, author of Suffering the Silence: Chronic Lyme Disease in an Age of Denial, contributes a section of the book, illuminating life after TBD and the difficulties encountered in the post-Lyme world. Also includes contributions from international authorities Dr. Laura Alonso Canal (Spain), Dr. Jennifer Armstrong (Canada), Michael Cook (UK), Doug Fearn (US), Dr. John Lambert (Ireland), Jenna Luché-Thayer (United Nations), Dr. Mualla McManus (Australia), Zhaneta Misho (Germany), Dr. Omar Morales (Mexico), Dr. Christian Perrone (France), Dr. Armin Schwarzbach (Germany), and Dr. Leo Shea (US); with illustrations by Rolo Ledesma.
