“I went to several doctors for five years with skin lesions. Nobody beleived me. They called me ‘Delusional’. Dr. Uppal figured it out, treated me and I am better now after so many years. Dr. Uppal saved my life.”
- Andronikki Rios The book is based on my practice of Infectious diseases and discovery of a new parasitic disease referred to as Morgellon’s Disease. My experience made me realize the dilemmas of the recognition of the disease in the medical community and social implication. It made me understand how it may be spreading in United States and how it may be prevented as a Public Health issue. Hence to bring this awareness to the public and healthcare providers I was compelled to write this book. A 40 years old woman comes to my office with sores all over body. Complains of crawling sensations and itching. States she sees threads coming out of her body. She grabs the hand sanitizer and rubs on her belly and tries to bring out stuff. She has been diagnosed with ‘delusional parasitosis’. But in talking to her she is an extremely intelligent woman. So I decide to investigate and what I have discovered is in this book. What led me to write this book is that I can educate the people with the disease, their families and caretakers that have to deal with these patients and the health care professionals that are looking for some answers unraveled a mysterious Disease, that has baffled the smartest of physicians.

By Rich Shull
Rich Shull like many of his counterparts worldwide grew up in an era before Autism was diagnosable and as such we have figured out Autism from end-to-end. With our Personal experience in Autism thinking and real life we blend together Autism (Picture Thinking) and normal thought to achieve a normal life. We drive hold normal jobs and are not the stereotypical Rain Man or anti-social genius, the world knows so well, as Autism. We can see the OBVIOUS errors and myths the current Autism thinking has created and thank our lucky stars we were never diagnosed, or we would all be in a group home. Modern Autism Education is two Steps backwards. Our success in real life needs to be studied and accounted for. It is Autism's success bottled and waiting to be tapped. What Current Autism Expert can claim first had knowledge with Autistic thought and our super active senses and even our Pain free injuries? Pre Rain Man Autism has ignored us for years now, Perhaps it has missed a few points that we have discovered and cured?

By C.K. Fernando
This is a book written for physical therapists and physicians interested in the treatment of patients with low back pain. The author has brought nearly 50 years of clinical training and scientific evidence to write this book. According to a very well known physical therapist, this book is claimed to be a seminal book on low back pain, and according to Dr. Basmajian (Father of EMG Biofeedback) “it should strengthen the hands and minds of several branches of the healing professions while clearing the debris of dubious techniques.” The book is about treatment of Mechanical Disorders of Lumbar Spine and mainly Intervertebral Disc Disorders by physical therapists using conservative techniques. The author is cognizant of the fact that patients who come to physical therapy should not be harmed by physical therapy, hence with this in mind, these gentle techniques are presented to the practicing physical therapist and the student alike. There are 9 chapters with two appendices and an index. The three anatomy chapters were co-authored with Dr. Arthur Nelson. The next few chapters are on sprains/strains, intervertebral disc conditions, spinal stenosis and disc degeneration, spondylolesthesis/spondylolysis and spondylosis. In addition to that, there are chapters on epidemiology, clinical evaluation, chronic low back pain, and physical therapy techniques. The main thrust in this book, is that all patients must be treated by proper clinical diagnosis based on pathophysiology using sensitive and specific tests and arriving at treatment techniques which are evidence based. This book is not for the believer and non-scientist, but to all those who profess to be physical therapists/scientists. This might be the only book written by two physical therapists for the treatment of patients suffering low back problems, with evidence to back it up.

By Martin Duclos
Much of the current literature describes fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and other related syndromes in terms of anecdotes and sales pitches without benefit of medical fact. Dr. Duclos is a practicing internal medicine physician who treats patients with these conditions every day and has found striking similarities among these conditions. He uses the latest scientific research to support his theory that the problem common to these disorders lies in the central nervous system. He describes the underlying disease process in clear terms for non-medical professionals and offers hope for treatment. "For years," Dr. Duclos says, "patients have been told that their symptoms are all psychological. Now we know better."

The medical world creates its own culture. This culture, however, would not continue if it were not for our participation. As consumers of health care, the way in which we talk, too, maintains the medical culture as it is. This culture frequently dismisses the wisdom of parents and talks them out of their own sense. We, as parents, co-create a culture that continually diminishes us. This collaboration has disastrous consequences for our children. How many times have you heard about a parent having a particular insight into his/her child only to be dissuaded from the truth by the doctor? What Do the Doctors Say? provides stories from the author’s own experience as a mother. As a scholar of communication, she has identified twelve language patterns that are used to create medical culture. The book is written particularly for parents of children with disabilities but may be a useful tool for all consumers of health care.

Mistaken for ADHD Parents! The real tragedy in a child’s life would be to cause him or her to fail to grow, mature and develop the normal skills needed for success as an adult. Unfortunately, if your child is wrongfully mislabeled as ADHD instead of being properly evaluated and treated for one of the disorders that can act just like ADHD, he or she might: - Need medications every day for years
- Be labeled and subjected to discrimination in school as an “impaired learner”
- Require thousands of dollars for unneeded doctor visits and therapy
- Be unable to keep a job
- Have multiple legal problems
- Grow up to be a socially, emotionally handicapped adult, still living with you at age 30.
Most doctors who evaluate children for ADHD are probably not adequately trained to do so! Mistaken for ADHD is your guide to help you take charge and be a strong advocate in making sure your child’s behavior problem is thoroughly evaluated and treated. Between the covers of this book you’ll discover stories of children misdiagnosed as ADHD and how those ADHD-mimicking disorders or Zebras, as Dr. Frank refers to them, were properly diagnosed and treated.
