Jen R, Reviewer
I received this from the publisher for a review. I was drawn to this book as I suffer from chronic pain and have for the last 18 years. I also have several auto immune disorders that contribute to the pain. One thing that I very much enjoyed in this book was that the author did not write above my head, in other words it was very easy for everyone who would want to read this, to understand. There was no long run on medical jargon, which I found very refreshing. The author had written this originally many years ago and has taken the time to update this as situations and treatments have advanced throughout the years. Personally I really appreciated the time and effort the author put into writing this in a way that did not blame the person in pain or contribute to the stigmas that typically surround chronic pain. This has different chapters explaining acute and chronic pain, treatments, how the world / medical community perceives chronic pain and treatments. I think this is an excellent book for people starting out on their pain journey, medical professionals and pain caregivers.
