I now have hope!

Purchase this book and try to see Dr Forester if you can! Wonderful Christian man and has a 5 month plan to end my pain.

Very helpful in diagnosis regarding what I am going thru!

I'd like to comment on this book, because I have struggled thru the past year with Chronic Fatigue beyond what my normal monthly Pain Management Doctors can help. This book zero'd in on what I am suffering with and how to approach my Family Doctor, who simply wants to throw different Medicines at me with no regard to symptoms or outcome. I now have a Great resource to use to take to my Doctor to get the specific help that I need. I am taken aback by the low ratings that this book has received regarding technical terms and correct diagnoses. I do not believe that some of these reviewers have been thru this and had to deal with the inability of the Main Stream Doctor to come close to helping people with Chronic Fatigue, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or Fybromyalgia. Thanks for a very helpful book in my Journey to recovery.

> I'm glad that they are feeling better they say that they have been found to have Lyme disease ( A: not hrd at all to diagnose - it's a very standard test when someone complains of fatigue and not hard to diagnose) but it also has nothing to to with CFS! <br /> <br />Lyme Disease IS difficult to diagnose and requires a skilled LLMD's clinical review along with supporting testing (Brain SPECT Scan, Lyme Titer, Lyme Western Blot, etc.) <br /> <br />The testing for Lyme Disease is extremely inadequate and many patients, including myself, are diagnosed soley on a clinical basis. <br /> <br />Furthermore, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is an "umbrella term" meaning that there are several underlying causes. Lyme Disease IS a cause of CFS, however, CFS is not Lyme Disease. <br /> <br />SC

Dr. Forester truly cares for his patients, both physically and spiritually. He has been my primary care physician through kidney cancer, Legionaires, allergies, fibromyalgia, and CFIDS. If you have CFIDS, please do not give up!!!In the past 7 years, I have experienced all the ups and downs of CFIDS and fibromyalgia. This book and the prayerful, caring treatments recommended by Dr. Forester, have saved my life and helped me to live a full and joyful life again. I am now able to teach school, ride horses, give riding lessons, clean stalls, and pick up hay. However, when it comes to housework I feel the CFIDS coming back (HA!)

A Reader & Patient of Dr. Foresters from Alexandria, L A

I would like to say to start off that the arthur of this book is a true Christian Man and really wants to help people that suffer with Chronic Fatigue. I have been in his office on several occassions and he has neumerous patients that have been helped that suffer with Chronic Fatigue. All though alot of paitents may not believe in his treatment,there are alot of patient's that do. Just like with everything what works for one, may not work for another. I know someone in paticular that suffered for years in chronic pain. Her husbands cold not even put his arms around her to touch her. Now he can put his arms around her and touch her and she has no pain. I encourage anyone that suffers with Chronic Fatigue or Fibromyalgia to purcahse this book. I think it will be of great help and understanding to you. If this book doesn't help you then my prayers are with you and I hope that Dr. Forester will continue his research and continue to share his knowledge of this disease and hopefully someday you will be helped........
