Central Sensitization and Sensitivity Syndromes: A Handbook for Coping

Summary

Millions of people have central sensitization and central sensitivity syndromes such as Myalgic Encephalomyelitis or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and Multiple Chemical Sensitivities, yet many suffer needlessly due to lack of diagnoses, education, and resources. These conditions wreak havoc on all aspects of one’s life. Without answers and support, patients may retreat into a sensory-deprivation bubble, endure an immensity of suffering, or develop mental illness.

Central Sensitization and Sensitivity Syndromes: A Handbook for Coping addresses these problems with easy-to-understand science; candid personal experience; and symptom management, coping, and long-term healing strategies.

Because Long-Covid and Lyme Disease share many symptoms with these syndromes, patients with Long-Covid and Lymes may also find this book helpful, particularly the sections on fatigue and crash, coping, neuroplasticity, and planning and pacing.
