Graduate’s book details chronic fatigue struggle
CCNH grad Patty Webb-Butts’ latest book, Free Yourself from Chronic Fatigue and Fibromyalgia, is based on her own struggle.
“My journey with Chronic Fatigue began 17 years ago when I was diagnosed with CFIDS and Fibromyalgia. I was so ill my doctor wanted to give me medical disability. After four years of agony, I finally said to my doctor, ‘I either want to get better or I want to die.’
“Since then, I have recovered even though the Centers for Disease Control says there is no cure. I drastically changed my diet, finished a doctoral degree in Holistic Nutrition and have more energy than I did 30 years ago. My passion now is to educate others and give them hope for recovery.”
