Prescription Drugs: The Road to even more suffering?

What if the very medicines meant to heal you were making you worse?

For almost four decades, the author has battled chronic pain from Crohn's Disease, Polymyalgic Rheumatica, and related conditions like Reactive Arthritis and Enteropathic Arthritis through a maze of prescription drugs, believing each pill, each dose, each treatment would bring relief. Instead, they discovered a devastating truth: the cure had become part of the problem.

This unflinching account exposes the hidden reality behind prescription drug dependency within the NHS - not the addiction we hear about in headlines, but something far more insidious. It's the story of how desperation for pain relief can lead patients down a path where medications meant to heal instead heighten sensitivity, worsen symptoms, and trap sufferers in cycles of increasing doses and diminishing returns.

Through raw, honest storytelling and frightening statistics, this book challenges everything we're told about managing chronic illness. It poses a disturbing question: are prescription drugs genuinely designed to cure us, or to keep us dependent on repeat prescriptions that maintain rather than improve our conditions?

This is not just another patient memoir - it's a wake-up call.

For anyone living with chronic pain, supporting someone who is, or working within healthcare, this book offers uncomfortable truths about the prescription drug paradigm that governs modern medicine. It's time to ask the difficult questions about whether our treatments are truly treating us

Are we being under-treated and over-medicated?

A courageous examination of how the road to recovery can become the road to even more suffering.
