Another useful one in this clever series ..., 2006-07-10
It's true: it explains what many MDs neglect to mention in the office. Very useful reading -- BEFORE you go in to talk to the doctor. This will give you a framework for the best questions to ask. Unfortunately, the burden is on you, the patient, to ask them! Most docs volunteer nothing! Counterintuitive, I know, but it's the reality. Arm yourself with this simple, smart, easy to understand book.

Gor pain? Get this., 2005-06-17
Until now, no one had outlined the consequences of untreated heartburn as clearly as this author who pretty much tells you everything you need to know about about how heartburn happens and how it affects your body. I particularly liked how this book made it possble for me to contact a consumer help book and find out how stress hurts my stomach.

Dealing with heartburn, 2005-06-15
This book is a straightforward guide to heartburn and its unpleasant sister, reflux. The list of potentially offending foods is very useful, as is the Part of Tens guide to heartburn web sites. Even if I still get heartburn, this book has given me some strategies for reducing the discomfort. Highly recommended.
