Publisher's Synopsis
When Gypsy suddenly lost the ability to stand, she never imagined her neurologically unexplained symptoms would lead to a psychiatric diagnosis. Deep down, she felt the "experts" had it all wrong, but discovering just how wrong was a devastating revelation. In her quest to understand her diagnosis, Gypsy uncovered a troubling history: neurologists, when baffled, could label patients with a mental illness without psychiatric assessment. An affliction which harkens back to the ancient Greek myth of the wandering womb-Hysteria. Now cloaked in modern, politically correct terminology, this practice endangers anyone whose doctors lack expertise in rare or multi-system illnesses.
Join Gypsy on her courageous journey as she navigates the treacherous and poorly regulated landscape between neurology and psychiatry, ultimately finding the true cause of her condition.
