Medical Misfit by Jalene Corbin
When individuals are
desperately sick and their primary care physicians and specialists fail to
render an accurate diagnosis, where do the patients go for help? If patients
present symptoms that aren't typical textbook cases, whose responsibility is
it to make certain that life-stealing health problems do not become
life-threatening ones?
In Medical Misfit,
Doctor, Why Can't You Diagnose Me? Jalene Corbin addresses these
questions and tells of being trapped on a medical merry-go-round when she
encountered health problems that seemed to be experienced by only a small
percentage of the population. Her true-story, first-person account, is
presented in an unusual and riveting format that readers will find
enlightening, entertaining, and very educational.
A lymph node infection,
interstitial cystitis (IC), a systemic yeast infection, an incorrect
diagnosis of Parkinson's disease, and sexual misconduct by a supposedly
respected physician nearly destroyed her physically and emotionally. Readers
will react with disbelief, outrage, and sympathy, undoubtedly fearing that
they could find themselves in the same position. Or, perhaps, they are
already there--desperate and slowly losing all hope of ever getting better.
Without Jalene's faith, a loving husband, family members, supportive
friends, and some God-placed caring physicians, she doesn't know how she
could have gotten through each crisis.
The
foreword to Medical Misfit was written by Dr. John Parks Trowbridge, M.D.,
FACAM. Among the many books that he has authored is The Yeast Syndrome, a
proven best seller that helped, and is still helping, an untold number of
patients.
Reviews and Quotes
www.Bookreviewers.org
"If you are interested in your own health--this book
is a must!" G. A. Bixler, IP Book Reviewer
"...these medical experiences
are all too common and, in my opinion, most could be prevented. Yeast
overgrowth remains one of the most common reasons a patient presents himself
or herself to my office for care." -Dr. Conan J. Shaw, B.S., D.C., C.N.C.
"Jalene shares valuable
perspectives to enhance the wellbeing of you, your family, and your
friends..." -John Parks Trowbridge, M.D., FACAM
"All things considered, it is
an extremely difficult thing for a sexual assault victim to speak up against
such a 'trusted, respected, pillar of the community' as a physician." -Dr.
N. Douglas Wiegand, Ph.D., LPC
"The authoress laments her
lack of initiative in not asserting herself more in regard to what she now
knows. That calls for early education of all persons." -Ray C. Wunderlich,
Jr., M.D., Ph.D.
