Blurbs :
"Living Well with Dystonia provides a balanced and easily understandable introduction to a chronic condition that is rarely discussed. Treatments and exercises are presented honestly - no miracle cures, but paths toward symptom relief. Simple diagrams of the nervous system and affected limbs or muscles are very helpful, and comments from actual patients personalize the discussions throughout. Well written. Recommended." - CAPHIS Consumer Connections
"This kind of comprehensive guide to dystonia has long been needed. It will be an invaluable resource to patients, their families and caregivers."-Bonnie Strauss, President and Founder, The Bachmann-Strauss Dystonia & Parkinson Foundation, Inc.
"Dr. Daniel Truong and co-authors have done a great service to patients with blepharospasm and other forms of dystonia by providing a clear and readable discussion of the disorders, their causes and therapeutic alternatives. Ignorance enhances fear and disability, whereas knowledge allows patients and their families to optimally adjust to chronic conditions, thereby improving their quality of life. This book should be read by all dystonia suffers and their loved ones."-Mary Lou Koster Thompson, President, Benign Essential Blepharospasm Research Foundation
