Produktbeschreibung
"Fibromyalgia affects about 4 million US adults, about 2% of the adult population. The cause of fibromyalgia is not known, but it can be effectively treated and managed." ~ Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Doctors have struggled for years to treat the pain, the fatigue and other symptoms of fibromyalgia. The list of symptoms and how they vary from individual to individual makes this task akin to hitting a moving target. Eileen Moore has written a very personal account of her search to live with fibromyalgia without the use of prescription drugs. After years on an antidepressant, she thought there might be a way to rid her body of the drug and live without succumbing to pain and fatigue. Five years after stopping the use of an antidepressant, she hiked twenty-four miles across the Grand Canyon, a harsh and forbidding environment. This is a demanding hike that many people without a life-altering condition would refuse to consider. Her philosophy on living with prescription medication is not for everyone. Yet, those who choose to take medication for fibromyalgia could benefit from the course she followed in regaining a healthier and happier lifestyle.
Autorenporträt
Eileen Moore was raised in the country of Ecuador. She returned to the United States at age 14 and has lived in the deserts and forest of Arizona for the last 5 decades. She loves to ramble down a dirt road toward some unexplored location, hoping to find a special place to share with family and friends. Her writing reflects her love of Arizona and the desire to share the wild country with her readers. After years of watching the population of Arizona grow, she is concerned that our overuse of our natural resources may lead to real challenges in the future and possibly alter those resources beyond any chance of restoration. Arizona Springs reflects both the love of history as well as the challenge to our ground water. In that light, Eileen hopes readers will reflect on what they truly value as they enjoy the back country of Arizona.
