Living with Lupus Book

I enjoyed this book. It is well written and easy to understand. It is not as technical as some books on the topic which makes it much easier to understand. I learned a vast amount of new information from this book. It offered practical advice/information. After I read it- I had my husband and mother read it -so they could understand my Lupus much better. Definitely worth the price of the book!

Wonderfully Informative

Easy to read, with current information. Definitely a book to buy. Very helpful and answered a lot of questions. It was nice to see a whole chapter dedicated to APS & Pregnancy. Will be recommending this book to others.

Great Read

WOW! This is was a well written book and has answered many of my questions. I was pleased to see there was a whole chapter dedicated to Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome. This book will stay in my personal library.

Substantial and well presented

This book provides up to date coverage of a complex and commonly misunderstood disease. It is easy to read and well organized, yet provides a great deal of detail. Suggestions for action as well as for further inquiry are provided.

Extremely informative !!!

This book covers all the ins and outs of a disease that is just as much a mystery now as it was years ago. This gives detailed information about what to expect in testing, physician's appointments, symptoms, different treatment options and how to cope with the fact that you have a chronic disease.
