Medical providers and specialists alike refer to Dr. Alexis as a "medical superhero" for sharing her journey to discover pain relief and a chemical-free "cure" from an obscure bladder disease that mainstream medicine states is "incurable." On its surface, Interstitial Cystitis: A Personal Journey of COMPLETE Healing! is a book that speaks to the indomitable spirit of a patient, Tracy Alexis PhD, who suffered with (and cured) Interstitial Cystitis and Fibromyalgia with herbs and supplements. However; the timing of this book and its enlightening "medical self-advocacy" section, specifically, could not be MORE providential as every-day Americans struggle to navigate a broken health care system that has become common fodder for political aggrandizement. Hospitals are suing and bankrupting patients for astronomically high medical service charges that are not covered by a patient's insurance, and doctors are equally crushed by the burdensome federally-regulated care and oversight of their patients. This book - endorsed by doctors - empowers its readers to stand up to America's broken health care system¿and prevail! Interstitial Cystitis: A Personal Journey of COMPLETE Healing! was written for both health care providers and patient-sufferers of IC (and Fibromyalgia) to bless those who suffer from so-called "diseases" many providers say are hopeless and incurable.
