"Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia are vexing conditions that are poorly understood by modern medicine. Some, in fact, still think that they are psychological disorders despite the fact that it is now recognized that they have distinct physiological origins. Internist Jacob Teitelbaum has spent his career researching these conditions and developing treatments for them. From Fatigued to Fantastic is a thorough overview of CFS/FMS and what Teitelbaum has found effective in his work with thousands of CFS/FMS patients.
Part of the reason these conditions are so problematic is that they compromise numerous systems in the body. Teitelbaum's treatment protocol is designed to address all of these various components. He starts by tackling the disordered sleep patterns that are a hallmark of these conditions. From there, he seeks to correct the hormonal deficiencies that are the result of hypothalamic malfunction and then address the chronic infections that plague many CFS/FMS patients. In addition, he also places heavy emphasis on correcting nutritional deficiencies that are often the result of chronic gut infections, and also seeks to provide support to mitochondrial processes that are suspected to be malfunctioning in these conditions.
The majority of the treatments Teitelbaum recommends are considered experimental. He reports a high rate of success using the above protocol, however, and many of the treatments he suggests appear to have sound reasoning behind them. His website contains the text of several research studies he has conducted showing measurable improvement in patients undertaking his protocol. Unfortunately, the limited scope of the studies prevents them from providing any real information on which aspects of his treatment are most important or effective.
Teitelbaum considers his approach to be an integrative one, making use of what he has found effective from both conventional and alternative medicine. This integrative focus is probably best displayed in his chapter on the various pharmaceutical and supplemental options for treating sleep problems, which is hands down the most comprehensive I've ever seen. Unfortunately, Teitelbaum also recommends a number of alternative treatments that I consider highly questionable that are not backed by either plausible rational or quality research.
Despite this significant flaw, there is more than enough valuable information here to recommend this book to anyone interested in learning more about these conditions."
"I've read lots on the subject of Fibromyalgia. This one is above them all. If your interested in knowing all your options for treating Fibromyalgia this is your book. If your only interested in antidepressants and the pain relievers you can get from your doc I wouldn't bother. He does tote his supplements in the book which annoyed me at first but he tells you exactly what's in them so you can decide for yourself and buy others too."
"If you are having any problems with chronic pain, or fatigue, I would recommend picking up this book (maybe from the library). In part I think he is selling a product, but it is extremely informative and really helps to figure out what exactly is going on."
