Thanks to CKUA, I’ve learned about your work. Were it available on Kindle, that would be fabulous, though I don’t know what an author has to go through to make that happen.
Astonishing Luck,

I discovered Chloe G.K. Atkins, PhD on “conversations with Lizz Sommars, KMTT 103.7FM. I was fascinated by the discussion of her book because the story is remarkably similar to my naturopathic physician, who was completely paralyzed for 4 years. He now walks again after recovering from his “mystery disease.”
The book is now available in Kindle format on Amazon.com and Amazon.ca. I hope you enjoy it . . ..
Hello,
A friend referred me to you and suggested I contact you. I have written and published a book about a similar condition and my struggles with getting a diagnosis…62 years! I would very much like to be in contact with you.
Thank you for your time,
Susan
Dear Susan,
Would you please tell me the title of your book and where it is available? I’d like to read it, if possible.
My research team and i have recently published an article abut UPS which may interest you: “Silos of Suffering and Silence: Patient and Physician Experiences of MUPS and Uncertainty.” AJOB Neuroscience, 4(3): 3–8, 2013. You can also find a copy of my book: My Imaginary Illness: A Journey of Uncertainty and Prejudice in Medical Diagnosis on amazon.
Thank you for leaving a comment on my website.
Best wishes,
Chloe G K Atkins
