In this revelatory memoir, Doctor Cynthia Li shares the truth about her disabling autoimmune illness, the limitations of Western medicine, and her hard-won lessons on healing?mind, body, and spirit.?

Li had it all: a successful career in medicine, a loving marriage, children on the horizon. But it all came crashing?down when, after?developing an autoimmune thyroid condition, mysterious symptoms began consuming her body. Test after test came?back "within normal limits," baffling her doctors?and baffling herself. Housebound with two young?children, Li began a solo odyssey from her living room?couch to find a way to heal.
Brave New Medicine?details the physical and?existential?crisis that forces a young doctor to question her own medical training. She dives into?the root causes of her illness, learning to unlock her body's innate intelligence and wholeness. Li relates her story with the insight of a scientist, and the humility and candor of a patient,?exploring the?emotional and spiritual shifts?beyond the physical body.
Millions of?people worldwide are affected by autoimmune disease. While complex conditions like chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) are gaining attention, patients?struggling?with these mysterious ailments remain largely dismissed by their doctors, families, and?friends. This is the harsh reality that doctor-turned-"difficult patient" Li faced firsthand.
Drawing on cutting-edge science, ancient healing arts, and the power of intuition, this memoir offers support, validation, and a new perspective for doctors and patients alike. Through her story, you can find the wisdom and heart to start your own?healing journey, too.
