Back Talk: How to Diagnose and Cure Low Back Pain and Sciatica

Rating:
Summary: I would recommend this book to back pain suffers.
Review: Dr. Fishman is concerned with the "patient" and quality of life. Many doctors view back pain as separate from the person. Dr. Fishman has sincere interest in helping patients and giving sound advice.

Summary: An excellent book for sciatica sufferers
Review: I found this book to be an excellent educational tool for someone new to low back pain and sciatica. The authors do a good job of explaining the pysiology of the problem, something many doctors fail to do. Subtle causes of pain are dealt with quite well, which to me suggests that the authors know their stuff. I thought it was written with the knowledge of a skilled doctor, but from the point of view of an inquisitive patient.

Summary: Extremely helpful tool in understanding my back pain........
Review: I was very impressed with how this book expained the reasons for my many different back pains. It was very easy to discover why and where my pain was coming from, and what to tell the doctor. I have suffered with back pain for 8 years, and have discovered this to be a very useful tool in dealing with the doctors. It is written so well that everyone can understand it without having to have a medical degree. I would highly reccomend this book to anyone who suffers from back pain, and would like to find a better understanding of their pain and symptoms. This will be my handbook for any future reference, as symptoms do change. I gained confidence in dealing with my doctor by having a better understanding about the origins of my pain and symptoms. A+++
