Beskrivelse
Since being diagnosed with post viral syndrome in 1994, Frank has remained
moderately to severely affected by this illness. In recent years, he was struggling
with a relapse and was experiencing a slow deterioration in his health.
Things changed dramatically in September 2019 when he had a
stroke. In a remarkable turn of events, he defied medical expectations
and a seemingly miraculous return to robust health resulted.
CFS is a debilitating illness that not only affects the patient, but also family
and friends. Therefore, Frank's son Nick has included his thoughts on
what it is like to live with a father who has this invisible chronic illness.
This book is the result of over two decades of personal experiences
and research into chronic fatigue/pain disorders. These are a range of
controversial illnesses commonly referred to as: post viral syndrome
(PVS), myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), chronic fatigue immune
dysfunction syndrome (CFIDS), chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), systemic
exertion intolerance disease (SEID) and fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS).
"Everybody has a unique biochemistry, and it is not uncommon that people
stumble over something that uniquely helps them. So I am thrilled that you
found that and are feeling better." - Dr Jacob Teitelbaum, MD
Dr Teitelbaum is a board certified internist (specialist in internal medicine) from the
USA and internationally renowned expert in the fields of CFS, FMS, sleep and pain
disorders.
"I have seen Frank struggle with the debilitating effects of CFS and am happily
surprised to find that he has been in excellent sustained remission since September
2019. High dose atorvastatin may have well contributed to his marvelous turn
around and is worthy of strong consideration for other sufferers also.
"One never knows if this could turn out to be an effective therapeutic
supplemental / treatment for others with ME/CFS. We wish him ongoing good
health." - Dr Zev Barr, MBBS, FRACGP
Dr Barr has been Frank's trusted doctor for well over two decades.
