No, You're Not Crazy

If you're like me you feel like you have to convince everyone that you are in pain. Finally an author that helps you understand the pain, it's cause and let's you know that you are not crazy. This is the most informative book I have ever read about my back pain. This book is written with respect for the reader and pain sufferer. I'm buying several copies for friends and family.

most informative book on back problems

I give this book 5 stars as its very comprehensive, yet it is very easy to read and understand. It is written in a question and answer format so the reader can pick and choose areas in the book that they want to read specifically. He goes into just about everything you'd want and need to know about every kind of back problem and solutions to problems from exercise to surgery, and the pros and cons. A must-have book for anyone who wants to get educated on their back or back problems.
