Trapped in the medical and legal systems without any answers, she desperately attempts to regain her health and her livelihood. Fifteen percent of Americans suffer from pain associated with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, but only 5 percent ever receive that diagnosis.

Download or read book Well Being and Death written by Ben Bradley and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2009-03-05 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Well-Being and Death addresses philosophical questions about death and the good life: what makes a life go well? Is death bad for the one who dies? How is this possible if we go out of existence when we die? Is it worse to die as an infant or as a young adult? Is it bad for animals and fetuses to die? Can the dead be harmed? Is there any way to make death less bad for us? Ben Bradley defends the following views: pleasure, rather than achievement or the satisfaction of desire, is what makes life go well; death is generally bad for its victim, in virtue of depriving the victim of more of a good life; death is bad for its victim at times after death, in particular at all those times at which the victim would have been living well; death is worse the earlier it occurs, and hence it is worse to die as an infant than as an adult; death is usually bad for animals and fetuses, in just the same way it is bad for adult humans; things that happen after someone has died cannot harm that person; the only sensible way to make death less bad is to live so long that no more good life is possible.

Download or read book Repetitive Strain Injury written by Clemens Conrad and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-09-12 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book you will find treatment options for Repetitive Strain Injuries (RSI). RSI is an umbrella term for a variety of pain in muscles, tendons and nerves. It is usually caused by repetitive movements performed over a longer period of time. This book focuses on the prevention and treatment of upper body pain in people who work on computers for several hours each day. Inside you will find information on how to set up an ergonomic workplace and how to work in a healthy way. Stretching, strengthening and nerve mobilization exercises as well as trigger point massages are illustrated and explained. Another chapter deals with the psychological consequences of this prolonged injury. There is also an introduction into the basics of RSI and I will tell you my own personal journey from hardly being able to hold a glass of water to being pain free and working on the computer again. In 2006 I first experienced severe pain in my forearms after working on the computer intensively. I was 20 years old at that time. In 2007 I had been seen by many doctors, but no one had any idea. Mid-year I couldn't even hold a cup without pain. I spent time on the internet and read a couple of English books on the topic of RSI. 2008: My condition improved significantly after setting up an ergonomic workstation and working with a physical therapist. I started publishing my experiences in German on the internet. In 2009 I was almost healed. However, I still had to perform stretches and take short breaks regularly. I published my story as a German book. In 2010 I had rebuilt all my muscles and I was able to work again on the computer just as before. 2015: Thousands of people have visited my website and/or have bought my book in the past years. To overcome the language barrier I decided to translate everything into English and publish it for free on my website and as a book.
