Author:
Barbara Bradley Bolen
Published by:
New Harbinger Publications,U.S.
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), the "common cold of the digestive system", affects 30 per cent of all people at some time in their lives. IBS is often triggered by stressful emotional situations and medical practitioners routinely recommend psychological treatment for the condition. This self-help book approaches IBS from a psychological perspective. The author explains the basic biology of IBS, describes some of the common medical treatments and shows readers how to identify troublesome foods and establish healthy new eating habits. She goes on to show readers how to monitor symptoms, develop strategies for managing flare-ups, and challenge the thoughts and emotional reactions that prevent them from recovering from IBS and having a healthy new life.

Author:
Crouch, Tammy
Published by:
Frog Ltd
Crouch stresses the importance of finding out exactly what type of RSI you have and of seeking conservative treatment instead of jumping in and having surgery like she did. This book also gives an excellent rundown and explanation of the diagnostic techniques that doctors use, from the innocuous Phalen's test to the often-excruciating electromyography nerve conduction test. While the explanations of different treatments could be more in-depth, they're a good primer if you're investigating your options. Crouch also includes information about worker's compensation plus an extensive list of resources-- organizations, Web sites, books, and articles--helpful for those learning how to treat these often chronic conditions.

Chest Pain

Paperback
Author:
Albert J Miller
Published by:
Selfhelp Success Books
The sensation of throbbing or soreness in the upper body can be misdiagnosed by physicians as well as patients. Internal organs generate a diffused pain that is difficult to localize. When a perceived case of indigestion turns out to be a heart attack, the importance of addressing each painful sensation becomes apparent. Doctors have access to journals and articles explaining the origins and conditions symptomatic of chest pain; however, it is hard for those not in the medical community to decipher this medical jargon. After much encouragement from his own patients, Albert J. Miller saw the need for a layman's volume. Anyone who has a family history of heart disease, an existing heart condition, or is aging will benefit from this quick reference. The heart is not the only cause of chest pain. Muscles, bones, and other internal organs can generate sensations similar to those experienced with heart complications. Aching and tenderness ...

Paperback
Author:
Lynette Bassman
Published by:
New Harbinger Publications,U.S.
When they were first documented in the medical literature, fibromyalgia (FMS) and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) were thought to be little more than psychosomatic complaints. Sufferers were repeatedly told nothing was medically wrong with them, though they slogged through life chronically exhausted and crippled with pain. But times have changed. Medical professionals now recognize that FMS and CFS are very real and highly individualized medical conditions, which require dedicated and attentive care. Many of the first books about FMS and CFS sought to tell readers what the medical establishment "didn't want them to know," but people with FMS and CFS no longer need to be liberated from the "secret stigma" of their condition. Now they need to learn what they can do to start feeling better. This book takes FMS and CFS out of the shadows and explores treatments for each that really work. Readers learn to assess their own symptoms and ...

Healing Adult Acne

Paperback
Author:
Richard Fried
Published by:
New Harbinger Publications,U.S.
All of us probably remember being told, "Don't worry, you'll grow out of it," when we had bouts of acne as teenagers. The truth is, though, that not everybody grows out of acne. In fact, acne can even begin in adulthood and, among women, even after menopause as estrogen levels decline. This book offers a detailed discussion of the physical symptoms, causes, and treatments of adult acne. It offers you useful information about the various effective natural and medical treatments, as well as information on dealing with tangential effects like scarring. This book is unique in that it also covers the psychological aspects of acne, inviting you to explore your experiences and feelings relating to the disorder. The book includes exercises to build self-esteem and social skills and suggestions for relieving stress and anxiety associated with acne.
