Yes, when i was in my 20's and battled many complicated health issues i went to my local Library to look up information to find out what has caused the health issues i had . I had multiple symptoms and my parents couldn't help me , no one could help me . Maybe i should of reached out to a Mayo Clinic at the time and possibly they could help me . During the day i take multiple medications. So yes life's been battle but reading books does make a world's difference for me.
