Invaluable information

This book is very informative on juvenile dermatomyositis. It is very helpful in teaching you what to expect in every stage of the disease, whether you are the child, parent, family member or friend. It explains the possible medications needed and their side effects. I refer to it almost daily. It has been an invaluable tool for us!

Very Informative

I'm 19 and I've had DM since I was 2. This book (edited by my doctor Lauren Pachman) is extremely informative and has everything you need to correctly help you or your child. I highly recommend this book to anybody that has Myositis or anybody that is a parent or family member of somebody with any form of Myositis.
