DL Cram,
132 pp., paperback, 2000.
If you've been diagnosed with psoriasis you're probably frightened and anxious. You're worried about the course the disease will take. How much worse will it become? Will your skin eventually clear up? This anxiety, along with feelings of shame and embarrassment, causes many patients to retreat into isolation, where they suffer in silence.
But rest assured you are not alone, and help is available. An estimated 7 million Americans suffer from psoriasis. Although it's not presently curable, it can be managed for most individuals so that they can lead normal, productive lives.
In Coping with Psoriasis, David Cram, M.D., an internationally-recognized expert on the disease, addresses the many complex issues patients face, including:- how the disease starts and progresses
- choosing the right doctor
- treatment options
- the importance of treating emotional symptoms
- the role of special diets
- alternative therapies
- advances in treatment
Dr. Cram discusses treatments and documents the ways in which psoriasis affects one’s psychologist health. This book is the first to give this dimension so much importance. A valuable resource for anyone with psoriasis.
Non-returnable.
