 An Atlas of Headache
by Stephen D. Silberstein

There are many causes of
headache: some are secondary to other conditions; others are
disorders in themselves. These factors often make differential
diagnosis and treatment a challenge. This CD-ROM contains the full
text and images from Atlas of Migraine and Other Headaches plus
searchable text and illustrations downloadable into Power Point. The
contents cover the history of migraine and headache, their
epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment. While the central particular
emphasis is on migraine, all types of headache are addressed. The
book includes some classic illustrations from historical texts as
well as modern images that illustrate the disorders and current
thinking.

Two headache specialists offer their
Headache Reduction Program, for treating and preventing recurring

authors-migraine sufferers themselves-present the integrated
Headache Reduction Program (HARP) that they developed at the
Princeton Headache Clinic.

 Headache
(ACP Key Diseases)
by Elizabeth W., M.D. Loder
(Editor), Vincent T., M.D. Martin (Editor)
Headache is among the most common
complaints encountered in primary care practice. A lengthy list of
disorders, many of them serious, can be associated with headache.
Consequently, the first concern of most physicians and patients is
to assess the likelihood of a dangerous underlying condition. Upon
evaluation, however, most patients are diagnosed with one of the
commonly encountered primary headaches. These are conditions of long
duration and require ongoing management and treatment reassessment,
most often by a primary care provider.
Headache's major emphasis falls naturally on the "Big Three"
headache disorders: migraine, tension-type, and cluster headaches.
Each disorder is defined and distinguished, and recommended
treatment strategies are summarized with concise, evidence-based
algorithms.
Although written for physician's, "Headache" is also a great book
for the educated patient.

 The
Headache Prevention Cookbook
by David Marks, M.D.
recipes by
Laura Marks, M.D.
Using anecdotes from his own
practice, Marks explains which ingredients can cause headaches.
He also outlines a way to identify our own triggers. The
potential triggers include a wide list of ordinary foods, such
as beans, chili peppers, dried fruits, canned soup, certain
cheeses, certain vinegars, nuts, chocolate, and ice cream. To
help people with undiagnosed food sensitivities steer clear of
the headache-causing culprits, Laura Marks, a doctor and an
accomplished cook, has created more than one hundred
easy-to-prepare recipes including Roast Garlic Linguine,
Lemon-Glazed Chicken, Jewish-Style Baby Artichokes, and Moist
Orange Pound Cake. I've
tried some of these recipes. They're wonderful and easy.

 The
Hormonally Vulnerable Woman:
Relief at last for PMS, mood swings,
fatigue, hair loss, adult acne, unwanted hair, female pain,
migraine, weight gain, ... all the problems of perimenopause
by Geoffrey Redmond, M.D.
According to Geoffrey Redmond, M.D., a
majority of the 42 million American women between the ages of
thirty-five and fifty-five suffer from vulnerability to their own
hormones. Appearance, emotions -- and even sex drive -- may be
affected. Symptoms include thinning hair, persistent acne, mood
swings, low energy, loss of pleasure in sex, weight gain, irregular
periods, and pain. While the media has emphasized the problems of
menopause, Dr. Redmond explains that all too many women experience
hormonal miseries even in their thirties. Lab tests are often normal
because the problem is not the hormones themselves but how a woman's
body reacts to them. Healthy, active women suddenly find that once
quiescent hormones have taken over control of their lives. Because
their problems are often dismissed as trivial, women who are
hormonally vulnerable are frequently thwarted in their quest for
help. Too often they are brushed off with remarks such as, "Your
tests are normal; there's nothing wrong with you." This is tragic
because, as Dr. Redmond demonstrates, hormonal balance can nearly
always be restored with the treatments he details, which include
individualized use of prescription medications, herbal supplements,
lifestyle changes, and even spiritual practices.

Well with Autoimmune Disease:
What Your Doctor Doesn't Tell You That You Need To Know
by Mary Shomon
Autoimmune diseases affect 50
million Americans, mostly women, who frequently remain undiagnosed and
untreated, or are treated ineffectively. Living Well with Autoimmune
Disease helps readers pinpoint symptoms, find the right practitioner,
and learn cutting-edge approaches to reduce symptoms and reverse their
disease. Author Mary Shomon, who has the immune disease Hashimoto's
thyroiditis, explains how the immune system is supposed to work, and
what can go wrong. Then she discusses more than 20 specific autoimmune
diseases--such as chronic fatigue syndrome, inflammatory bowel
disease, lupus, thyroid disease, Graves' disease, rheumatoid
arthritis, type 1 diabetes, fibromyalgia, scleroderma, and multiple
sclerosis.

Living Well with Chronic Fatigue
Syndrome and Fibromyalgia: What
Your Doctor Doesn't Tell You That You Need To Know

-- vital help for the millions of people suffering from pain, fatigue,
and sleep problems. An estimated 6 million Americans suffer from
fibromyalgia and 800,000 have chronic fatigue syndrome. Both
conditions are characterized by severe and widespread pain,
debilitating fatigue, and difficulty with concentration and memory.

choose from among dozens of treatment options. In her trademark
accessible, easy-to-follow style, patient advocate Mary J. Shomon
explores these often confusing conditions, highlighting the pros and
cons of conventional and alternative approaches, giving you tips for
developing a recovery plan, and providing clear direction and
solutions for sufferers of chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia.

 Living
Well with Hypothyroidism: What
Your Doctor Doesn't Tell You That You Need To Know
by Mary Shomon
As many as one in eight women
have a thyroid condition. In Living Well with Hypothyroidism, Mary
Shomon outlines the most common of these--too little thyroid hormones
in the body. Weight gain, depression, fatigue, and what patients call
"brain fog, Brillo hair, and prune skin" result. Because the symptoms
of hypothyroidism mimic so many other conditions--chronic fatigue,
PMS, clinical depression--it can be very tricky to diagnose,
especially since patients with HMOs may not get the thorough testing
they need. Shomon knows of what she speaks: she's a health writer and
thyroid patient herself. She also manages a thyroid Web site and
writes a newsletter on hypothyroidism. In Living Well, she offers an
extensively researched guide to this complex condition. She covers
conventional, alternative, and late-breaking approaches to
treatment--such as challenging the gold standard of Synthroid as the
thyroid replacement therapy of choice. (Synthroid replaces T4, the
less active of the two thyroid hormones, and Shomon features new
research on adding T3--the more potent thyroid hormone--to treatment.)

need to effectively manage your condition. Shomon, herself a thyroid
patient, draws on an extensive network of experts and personal
experience to provide the most comprehensive and empowering book
available on the subject.

 The
Spectrum of Migraine
by Alan M. Rapoport, Fred D. Sheftell,
Stewart J. Tepper (Editor)
This book consists of case descriptions
of headache, prepared by headache specialists who range in their
training specialty: family practice, internal medicine, dentistry,

the discussion.
The goal is to help physicians identify migraine in its
many forms, as well as some common headache disorders sharing
features with migraine, and to discuss up-to-date management of
these headaches. Written for physicians, but excellent for the
educate Migraineur.

Pain: the Fifth Vital Sign
by Marni Jackson
Pain: The Fifth Vital Sign is a
ground-breaking inquiry into the nature, treatment, and
definition of modern pain. In the United States, there has been
a recent campaign to treat pain as the fifth vital sign. Just as
temperature, respiration, pulse, and blood pressure, the four
traditional vital signs, must be charted, hospitals are now
obliged to assess pain in their patients, too. If this indeed
happens, it will be nothing less than groundbreaking—making pain
far more visible. For too, pain has been a dark continent, both
in the body and in our culture. However, medicine is finally
learning to evaluate pain as something more than a symptom—a
main focus rather than a frustrating side issue for doctors.
Above all, Pain: The Fifth Vital Sign makes an elusive subject
vivid and readable. We all know what pain is. Now it has a
voice.

 What
Your Doctor May Not Tell You About(TM) Migraines:
The Breakthrough Program That Can Help End Your Pain (What Your
Doctor May Not Tell You About...
by Alexander Mauskop, Barry Fox
Some thirty-three million
Americans suffer from Migraines, those excruciating headaches that
can last for hours or even days. The symptoms can include
debilitating pain, extreme sensitivity to sound and light, sweats,
double vision, nausea and vomiting, slurred speech, and more.
Current treatments and prescription drugs fail to help millions of
these patients. Mauskop and Fox introduce a safe, all-natural
"triple therapy" program that can relieve the pain-and often even
prevent recurrences-of Migraines. A combination of three
easy-to-find, over-the-counter supplements (magnesium, vitamin B2,
and the herb feverfew), this scientifically proven remedy was
developed by Dr. Alexander Mauskop, one of the nation's leading
migraine experts.
