Summary: Fanatastic, easy to understand.
Comment: The book was very thorough regarding Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia (FMS). It could have had more information about Myofascial Pain Syndrome and its interrelationship with FMS. It is a condition often associated with or preceding FMS. Dr. Teitelbaum reports about accompanying conditions encompassing CFS & FMS, and their symptoms, then spells out treatments clearly.
When I realized Dr. Teitelbaum's office is only about 40 min. drive from my home, I became very excited and wanted to make an appointment to see him. Then I learned that he charges $1,500 for the initial 3 hour visit, and this didn't include lab tests, which would be another $1,500 to $2,000! I feel somewhat betrayed! It might be better to make the book a gift to your regular doctor, and work with him or her.

Summary: A Must-Read for all Doctors and CFIDS patients
Comment: As a Naturopathic Medical Doctor and a person diagnosed with CFIDS (1992)-- I highly recommend this book!
The treatment protocols are indispensable for all physicians that are treating CFIDS patients. The book has a truly integrative approach and discusses medications, nutrition, herbs, etc. This is also the first book that I have found that actually discusses the intravenous vitamin therapy know as the "Myers Cocktail".
I recommend that all of my CFIDS patients read this book. This book helps patients make empowered health care choices and also educate their own doctors about cutting-edge treatments.
This book gives PWCs hope that they can feel better and offers a road map to guide each person on his or her journey toward optimum health.

Summary: Some encouraging ideas but omits celiac disease
Comment: I found hope in this book at a time I felt fairly hopeless and still think it presents a lot of worthwhile ideas to explore.
However, my chronic fatigue turned out to be due celiac disease (gluten intolerance) which is thought by some researcher to have a prominence as high as 1 in 133 in the USA. Since fatigue is one of the most common symptoms (and sometimes the ONLY symptom), celiac disease deserved at least a mention in this book. There are no references to it (or to gluten as a potential toxin) at all in the book that I could find.
As a result, I spent considerable money on recommended supplements which did nothing for me. Even so, one or more of the ideas in here might be just the ticket for someone else suffering from fatigue so it's definitely worth a look.
If you're interested researching this possibility, check out "Dangerous Grains" by Hoggan and Braly or one of the many other excellent books on gluten intolerance for sale here on Amazon.com.
Best wishes in your quest for health and energy.
