If you have a chronic illness like Fibromyalgia or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, you want to learn what you can about it, figure out what you need to know to help yourself and then proceed to get well right away. Sounds pretty simple, huh?
Yes, it may sound that way, but until now, it’s been far from being that easy.
These two illnesses have probably been around a long time. Their “modern” illness names were coined back in the late 1970’s. Progress on how to help patients get well, however, has been slow to come. The effort is ongoing.
Some help came during the last few years with prescription drugs to manage a few symptoms, but none of these drugs claim to get people well. Note: one new drug therapy, Ampligen, may come on the market soon for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, but it may be costly and, as far as I know, only claims to help a certain percentage people with the illness. (Stay tuned for an update on Ampligen.)
Today let’s get down to the basics of how you think and feel about illness and what you know that can affect your health. There’s a lot to this side of the equation and you need to understand it all. (Hint: this easily could turn out to be more important to your personal health.)
Here’s the audio portion of today’s Health Matters Show weekly podcast. It highlights some of the material we’re talking about during each Monday night during the month of August 2009 on the Get Well Healing Teleseminars series. It’s not too late to sign up for these important “live” teleseminar events.
