From the Back Cover

The definitive resource to the signs, symptoms, and patterns of medical diseases that CAN present as psychological problems

This invaluable reference enables clinicians, as well as patients and their families, to become more familiar with these medical conditions and how they may masquerade as mental disorders.

Part One of this book is organized so that it corresponds to the sections of the Standard Mental Status Exam. It is composed of clinical presentation descriptions that direct the reader to the medical diseases described in Part Two that may be contributing to the patient's discomfort.

Without medical jargon, Barbara Schildkrout lucidly explains how patients with each medical condition may end up seeking help from a mental health professional. The conditions explored in this book include:

  • Alzheimer's disease
  • Brain tumors
  • Carbon monoxide poisoning
  • Diseases of the thyroid
  • Endocrine disorders
  • Hepatic encephalopathy
  • HIV/AIDS
  • Hyperventilation syndrome
  • Hypoglycemia
  • Limbic encephalitis
  • Lyme disease
  • Syphilis
  • Thiamine deficiency
  • Traumatic brain injury
