Interstitial Cystitis: A Personal Journey of Complete Healing!: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Interstitial Cystitis: A Personal Journey of Complete Healing!" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This scientific self-help book bridges the obvious gap between science-based books written for physicians, urologists, and health care providers and easier-to-read books written for the general public. Only a smattering of the books on interstitial cystitis (IC) that are available today provide suggestions on how to implement daily life changes to help heal IC. Most, if not all, stop short of a multi-tiered approach, and very few recognize the pivotal role of the patient (or IC sufferer) in the healing journey. This book fills in the missing gaps. To schedule individual self-advocacy consults or to engage Dr. Alexis professionally, please visit: www.drtracyalexis.com or email: drtracyalexis@gmail.com.

Testimonials

Tracy Alexis is a medical super hero! In this powerful book filled with essential information, Dr. Alexis not only presents her personal experience of how she achieved remission from Interstitial Cystitis within five years, but also explains how she navigated the Scylla and Charybdis of commercial insurance bureaucracy, medical negligence, and support group stagnation. Readers will certainly learn about Interstitial Cystitis, and its effective and ineffective interventions, but perhaps more importantly, they will learn how one patients indomitable spirit and curiosity propelled a successful journey of healing. I predict this story will motivate, inspire, and hopefully, transform the lives of patients and medical professionals alike.

Dr. Alexis has produced a thoroughly comprehensive and intimate portrait of Interstitial Cystitis (IC) for which I am grateful. Her clarity of vision has fanned away the fog that has kept this condition in obscurity and brought it into the daylight. A decade and a half as a pharmacist have not given me the kind of detailed knowledge that this book provides. My hope is that its distribution will facilitate understanding and empathy in the medical community for the underserved population and provide guidance for those who suffer needlessly.

David Wales, PharmD, RPh

Thoroughly researched and well written, this book provides the reader with guidance, direction, and helpful specifics presented compassionately and didactically through self-disclosure and factual information. Dr. Alexis addresses all aspects of her healing journey and provides sound advice while remaining cognizant of individual differences. A must-read for anyone suffering from or associated in any way with Interstitial Cystitis or related issues. I have indeed found it a meaningful resource for general medical purposes as well.

Chapter 2 The Ugly Truth About Health Care And
Its Providers

When Tracy Alexis and I met 11 years ago, she had already developed a distinguished reputation in our state for her competence and enthusiasm in her work with the underprivileged. At that time I was dedicating a considerable amount of my practice to the examination of applicants for social security disability benefits, and that is how our paths crossed. Soon after that meeting, we were both receiving prestigious awards for our respective professional effortsI for my work with the so-called mentally ill as well as for serving as the co-editor-in-chief of a psychological journaland she in recognition of her passion for helping those less fortunate. Tracy saw this coincidence as encouragement to pursue a PhD in Industrial/Organizational Psychology with me as her academic advisor. I agreed, and the rest, as they say, is history. This book is part of that history.

A few years into our academic relationship, Tracy was involved in a serious motorcycle accident. A year or so later, she experienced a complete bladder death as well as the manifestation of other trauma-related symptoms, eventually leading her to a diagnosis of Interstitial Cystitis (IC). Few local physicians or specialists had even heard of this disease, and even fewer had ever seen a case so severe or had successfully treated IC cases.

Tracys attempts to find competent help are a part of this story, but the most important part of her book is the extent to which she discoveredthrough her own research and self-experimentation (using the single-case experimental designs she had employed during her doctoral dissertation)how the painful and debilitating symptoms of Interstitial Cystitis and other inflammatory diseases including fibromyalgia could be effectively treated and healed. (Single-case experimental designs are real science, leading to the ability to predict and even control illnesses, as opposed to statistical analyses of groups of patients whose conclusions change before the ink is dry on journalists uncritical reports of them.)

This book is an intensely personal but balanced account of Dr. Alexis journey through the maze of traditional, expensive, and largely ineffective medical interventions to much more gentle, humane, and effective approaches and solutions. I feel confident that the techniques she offers in this book will undoubtedly be accepted into alternative medicine.
