I feel very lucky and very sad. I feel lucky because I have wonderful Lyme literate doctors. I feel sad because I see that so many others do not have wonderful Lyme literate doctors.

I read so many posts and comments from others asking about antibiotics, vitamins, supplements, therapies, detox, diet. We as a whole seem to be looking to each other for the answers. That scares me.

I love your support, but I only trust my doctors when it comes to what I should to be putting into my body to get better. Like I said, I am lucky.

I am sad, I feel like others are left stranded grasping for help, and coming up empty.

I have been reading a book that I would recommend to all of you out there who are searching for medical advice. Or those of you who are just interested in the subject.

Connie Strasheim’s book INSIGHTS INTO LYME DISEASE TREATMENTS. I would not actually say that she wrote the book. It is better than that. She had 13 Lyme literate practitioners answer questions and share their Lyme treatments. Reading the book is like reading an interview. They practitioners pretty much just spell out their treatment methods right there in the pages of the book.

Insights into Lyme Disease Treatment

Insights into Lyme Disease Treatment

From the Back Cover:

Connie conducted intensive interviews with thirteen of the world’s most competent Lyme disease healers, asking them thoughtful, important questions, and then spent months compiling their information into organized, user-friendly chapters that contain the core principles upon which they base their medical treatment of  chronic Lyme disease.

The specific practitioners interviewed were chosen for their expertise and experience in treating Lyme disease. Their backgrounds span a variety of disciplines, including allopathic, naturopathic, complementary, chiropractic, homeopathic, and energy medicine. Two European physicians were also interviewed.

All aspects of treatment are covered, from anti-microbial remedies and immune system support, to hormonal restoration, detoxification, dietary and lifestyle choices. Furthermore, the book ponders patient and practitioner challenges of treating chronic Lyme disease, and offers helpful insights to the friends and families of those coping with chronic illness.
