I have Peripheral Neuropathy and have had Osteomyelitis in the past. I've also gotten some really bad medical advice/care over the years. I purchased this book because I was recently told by a Podiatrist that (after a cursory "exam") that I had an infection and needed to have part of my foot amputated. I went to a second doctor, who, after ordering an MRI and looking at the results, told me that it was a joint alignment issue. Not an infection. I read this book to educate myself so I won't be at the mercy of unscrupulous quacks! Now, I am giving it to one of my sons who is studying to be a doctor.
Wonderful resource for medical practice. Very Clear and descriptive information. A must buy for anyone in Medicine looking to expand their knowledge of osteomyelitis.
