A Must Have

When I was diagnosed with Lupus I was overwhelmed. I had no clue or understanding of what to expect. I skimmed through a bunch of books, looking through the table of contents and was interested in what this book had to offer. I am so glad I picked it! I was given a clear understanding of what to expect and a explanation of why certain things were happening. 2 of my friends were diagnosed after me and I bought them this book. They were as lost as I was and were grateful to have it too. We all reference back to it from time to time. If you or anyone you know has Lupus, I would recommended this book as a Must Have.

Great book for those newly diagnosed.

The "New Hope for People with Lupus" was very informative. It is an easy format to follow and helpful for those newly diagnosed or reading their first book on Lupus. The coverage of both traditional and non-traditional therapies was solid. I recommend this book for those who are new to Lupus.

Unimpressed

I am a person with a possible diagnosis of Lupus, looking for information about the disease. While I found Dr. Wallace's handbook on Lupus very helpful, "New Hope" was full of silly platitutes and assumptions about my experiences of the disease (trying to be funny and sympathetic, but not mirroring my experiences at all--I found it rather condescending). It did not cover in depth alternative therapies as I had hoped.

Informative and optimistic

This a good book for any Lupus patient. I have SLE and found this book inforamtive, but it is interlaced with optimism and cases of people who were able to reduce their symptoms. It has everything.. the basics, meds, alternative therapies, coping and relationships, tips on what to ask the doc. This is a good book.
