They had few treatment options (which did not work for me), and threw up their hands saying there was nothing they could do, sending me on my way. <br /> <br />Not only was this a great overview of the many potential treatments out there, but it's empowering to see how much thought and research the author has put into the book. This is a great resource to recommend to doctors (if I could afford it, I'd send a copy of this to every doctor who was less than helpful), and a great springboard for more detailed research yourself about specific treatments you think will work for you. <br /> <br />There's a serious lack of literature about CFS treatments, and a serious focus on antidepressant-only treatments for fibromyalgia (at least where I've lived), and this book fills a void.
