| I knew very little about Valley Fever before reading this book. What some of its sufferers go through is horrific - starting with the lack of knowledge in the medical field in endemic areas. The book has useful information and resources for sufferers. It is written in easy to understand language for people to get past the jargon. That said, what I take away from the book is how misinformed if not completely UNINFORMED the public is to this disease. There is a long way to go. My biggest issue those is the oft repeated statistic in the book is that only about 2% of those infected with VF are correctly diagnosed. That is a statistic that I would like to see data for, instead of taking it as a straight up fact. Terri |
