Living Well with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia: What Your Doctor Doesn't Tell You...That You Need to Know - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: From the author of Living Well With Hypothyroidism, a comprehensive guide to the diagnosis and treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia--vital help for the millions of people suffering from pain, fatigue, and sleep problems. Recent studies indicate that 3 to 6 million Americans suffer from fibromyalgia--a chronic disorder characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, and multiple tender points. This terrible condition is often accompanied by chronic fatigue syndrome, a persistent and debilitating sense of exhaustion that is estimated to affect 800,000 Americans--twice the number of people with multiple sclerosis. Yet there are no official blood tests of diagnostic procedures that can confirm that yes, you definitely have these conditions, and in fact, a whole segment of the medical world doesn't even believe these two diseases actually exist. In addition, the few books that are on the market tend to focus on single solutions or eschew conventional and pharmaceutical approaches, which could alienate readers who use conventional medicine in whole or part. In her trademark accessible, easy-to-follow style, patient advocate Mary J. Shomon integrates the latest findings regarding these misunderstood conditions. Highlighting the pros and cons of the antibiotic, metabolic/endocrine, hormonal, musculoskeletal, and many other approaches to treatment, Shomon explores the fads and viable alternatives--both conventional and alternative--and provides helpful, clear solutions to help sufferers of fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. At various points since 1995, Mary J. Shomon has been diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia. Since then, she has transformed her health challenges into a mission as a nationally-known patient advocate. She has worked for more than 20 years in writing, advertising, public relations, and communications and is the founder and editor-in-chief of several thyroid, autoimmune, and nutrition newsletters, as well as the internet's most popular thyroid disease website, www.thyroid-info.com.
Vanity, Vitality, and Virility: The Science behind the Products You Love to Buy - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: What is the secret of shower cleaners? How does the dangerous explosive nitroglycerin ward off heart attacks? And what medicines, usually prescribed for other purposes, are said to produce the ultimate orgasm? In Vanity, Vitality, and Virility, award-winning science writer John Emsley offers a fascinating behind-the-scenes account of 30 chemicals that we use everyday to make ourselves more beautiful, to improve our diet and sexual pleasure, to kill germs, and to ward off depression and other mental illnesses. Emsley looks at common compounds such as alpha-hydroxy acids, vitamin C, chlorine bleach, and Prozac, telling us if they work, how they work, and how they were discovered. Indeed, the book is packed with useful information and easy-to-digest science, and Emsley relates it all with a light touch that delights in the odd fact or amusing anecdote. Thus we learn of the "vitamin C tights" sold in Japan to make your legs more beautiful (they don't work) and of the whimsical Hungarian scientist who first isolated vitamin C and wanted to name it "godnose"--because he had no idea what the compound was. We discover that Cleopatra was right to bath in milk, which is filled with alpha-hydroxy acids. And we read about the unforgettable British researcher who demonstrated a powerful new drug for male erections at a Las Vegas convention--injecting himself with the compound and then "displaying the results" to a stunned lecture hall. As with the much-loved Nature's Building Blocks, in John Emsley's hands, chemistry comes alive. Anyone curious about the ingredients in the products we use, and everyone fascinated with science, will be enthralled by this book.

How well are you willing to bee?: A beginners's ''auto'' fix it guide - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: The contents of this guide are intended to give the reader knowledge ofsome alternatives to the manner in which he/she may view the treatment of aspecified illness. Although a variety of choices exists, the hope is that this bookmay enlighten you about some new, yet very old, ways to get better. Did thatsuper heart medication, digitalis, not come from the foxglove plant? Sure it did.Do you know where aspirin originated? It was in the willow tree. Even thebuffering agent now used in aspirin comes from that same willow tree. Whatelse does nature have to offer? This is something many of us are now asking andwe are getting answers, too. Why do so many of us use things that just mask aproblem? A bandage can help protect a scratch from further harm, but why notuse something to aid the healing process before you apply the bandage? Well,did you know that raw honey is one of the most sterile topical ointments youcould use? When used on a scratch or burn, for example, it actually assists inspeeding the healing process. Of course, honey is good on piping hot biscuits,too! However, that's another story.What else can we learn about natural healing? It's not invasive to ourbodies. It does not require a whole new way of living, but it can give you one.The cost is affordable. The "feel good" feeling is natural, not synthetic. Thedocumentation about the powers of natural healing has been handed down forthousands of years. The Bible speaks often of the benefits of honey and propolis.Since the time of Hippocrates, the Father of Medicine, there is evidence of theuse of apitherapy (the therapeutic use of bee products). The Chinese have usedherbs, bees, and other natural means of healing for hundreds of centuries. Doyou realize that money has not been an issue when dealing with these ways ofhealing? Only when mankind starts to "fool with Mother Nature" does the wal-let become an important factor.Remember when you would fall down and Mom could simply kiss it andmake it all better? Of course the bad knee scrapes sometimes needed a Band-Aid. Now, for instance, many of us feel we need to 'see a doctor' for a hurt knee.What do we get? Perhaps it will be a cortisone shot. Ouch!! Your body pro-duces cortisol, so why not use it instead? Because we don't know how, right?Well, let's start learning, saving money, and getting better. First, learn whatKISS can really mean: Keep It Simple, Sweetheart!
Residents' Teaching Skills (Springer Series on Medical Education) - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: After a 2-year stint as a research fellow in nephrology, I returned to BostonCity Hospital in order to complete my 3rd year of internal medicine residen-cy. During the course of my fellowship, I'd done research on acid-basedisorders—an area that most medical students and residents find very con-fusing. Because of my research experience, the faculty and attendings as-sumed that I could teach this arcane subject to my peers and to our medicalstudents. With no training whatsoever in teaching (yes, even as a 3rd-yearresident!), I was assigned the task of putting together a lecture/seminar se-ries. To this day, I'm not sure whom the experience was worse for: theanxious, utterly unprepared "instructor" (me), or the learners, who probablygot very little satisfactory instruction from the seminar despite my mostearnest efforts.Does this sound familiar? It's an experience that nearly all of us have hadat some point during our residency: the sudden, sickening realization thatwe're going to be expected not only to care for patients, but to teach themedical students that we all too recently were ourselves. And we have abso-lutely no idea what to do. For more than a few residents, a crashing patientin the emergency room may be a lot less daunting than a clutch of earnestmedical students following in their wake and waiting for their wisdom.Traditionally, medical residents have not received the formal preparationthat is essential to the transition from full-time learner to at least part-timeteacher. Although many residents make that transition successfully through asort of osmosis, many more do not, and they remain ineffective teachersthroughout their residencies. With some estimates indicating that residentsare responsible for as much as 80% of student teaching, this is clearly anuntenable situation for medical education. Nor is it permissible according tothe standards of the Liaison Committee on Medical Education, which statethat "Residents must be fully informed about the educational objectives ofthe clerkships and be prepared for their roles as teachers and evaluators ofmedical students.
