I have had Peripheral Neuropathy for 12 years, and read many articles and books about this disease.This book is the clearest, most informative. It covers information on a vast number ofdifferent types of neuropathy.I relished reading about all the possible causes and have a much clearer picture of the disease.Kudos to Dr. Latov for making this a patient friendly way to get the information about a disease that I know is hard to correctly diagnose.I strongly suggest that everyone with neuropathy and their families read this book to help understand the disease and get the proper diagnosis and treatment.
Product Description
Peripheral neuropathy, the variety of conditions that result when the nerves that connect to the brain and spinal cord are damaged or diseased, is commonly associated with diseases such as diabetes, HIV, alcoholism, and lupus. Although widespread - it affects 10-20 million people in the United States - information about the condition has been difficult to obtain. This essential guide explains what is known about peripheral neuropathy, including its causes and manifestations, and what can be done to manage it. Topics include drug therapy for the condition and its symptoms, interventional therapy, alternative medicines, caring for the feet, and much more. This book will enable patients to make informed decisions about their care.
