    Finally, A Medical Glossary Anyone Can Understand!

    Even being in the medical field myself it is hard to understand what doctors are really saying at times. I really feel sorry for the lay people in this situation, as they are probably so confused they don't even know what to ask.

    I highly recommend The Official Valley Fever Survivor Medical Glossary to everyone. You don't have to have Valley Fever to benefit from this book. The beginning of the book explains what valley fever is about and the endemic areas. It also has a section called Dawn to Dusk, which explains what weather conditions may increase or decrease the chances of contracting this deadly disease.

    The large glossary comes next and it is very easy to understand and compliments the first book written called Valley Fever Epidemic. Many of the words in this glossary could be related to several health issues as well. For example, the word prognosis relates to the outcome of a medical problem so it can be used with any diagnosis. As I mentioned above, you don't have to have Valley Fever to benefit from this book.

    At the end of the glossary is some very good reference information about where you can find organizations and internet information related to valley fever. You can also find information about a vaccine being worked on in Texas and research on a new medication being worked on in Arizona. If you've not read Valley Fever Epidemic this book is a must have. It has awesome reviews written by several prominent Valley Fever medical professionals.

    If you don't need to breathe then no worries. :) However, if you do need to breathe I highly suggest you read both these books, The Official Valley Fever Survivor Medical Glossary and Valley Fever Epidemic. This disease is something to worry about. You just don't know it yet. Why wait? Linda Evins, RN and Valley Fever Survivor.
