I also live with a “chronic” illness that occurred after meningitis 9 years ago. After visiting many doctors, holistic health practitioners, therapies of many types and tens of thousands of $, I was left with little hope of improvement. I finally found some respect, advice and hope with Anthony William. His new book Medical Medium, Secrets Behind Chronic and Mystery Illness and How to Finally Heal was a god-send. It was just published in November, 2015. Please approach this book with an open mind and you will find statistics that are greater than you have stated. We are living with a secret epidemic of desperately ill people who find little or no relief with American health care. I am following his suggestions faithfully and am feeling such improvement from this time last year that I finally have hope of getting my life back.
