Revolution from my bed (Paperback)

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. From collapsed medic to global patient revolutionary-one man's journey through medical gaslighting to becoming the voice of millions with chronic illness.At 22, Roi Shternin was saving lives as an Israeli combat medic and Red Cross volunteer. Then his body turned against him. One moment he was running toward emergencies; the next, he couldn't stand without fainting. For the next decade, he would navigate a medical system that dismissed his symptoms as anxiety, told him to "buy a nice mattress and grow old with dignity," and left him bedbound with an undiagnosed condition that doctors insisted was "all in his head."This isn't another inspiration-porn memoir about overcoming illness through positive thinking. This is the raw, unfiltered truth about what happens when your body becomes your prison and the medical system becomes your adversary.Revolution From My Bed chronicles Shternin's transformation from dying patient to global health revolutionary. Through years of being gaslit by over 30 doctors, teaching himself medicine from his bed, and finally discovering he had POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome), he didn't just survive-he ignited a worldwide patient revolution.Today, as Chief Patient Officer advising companies like Takeda and Novartis, founder of The Patient School with 50,000+ students, and international speaker who has presented at 200+ events across 27 countries, Shternin has turned his horizontal life into a launching pad for systemic change.This book is essential reading for: Anyone with chronic illness who's been told "it's all in your head"Healthcare professionals who want to understand the patient experienceFamilies navigating the medical system with a loved oneAnyone interested in how personal catastrophe can fuel systemic revolutionInside, you'll discover: How to become your own medical advocate when doctors fail youThe hidden gifts of chronic illness nobody talks aboutPractical strategies for living fully within physical limitationsHow to transform rage into revolutionary actionWhy the future of healthcare depends on patient voicesPart memoir, part manifesto, part survival guide, Revolution From My Bed proves that you don't need to stand up to stand up for yourself-and that sometimes the most powerful revolutions begin from the most vulnerable positions."Raw, honest, and revolutionary.
