Product Review
From James Schaller, M.D. -- Remarkably broad and clearly written, this will be one of the top Lyme Disease books of the decade. Bryan Rosner is very gifted at explaining new emerging treatments. He thinks big and offers big solutions. --James Schaller, M.D., practicing physician and author of 16+ books
Product Review
From Mary Brescia, R.N. -- I am a registered nurse, wife, mother, and patient, and for 15 years I have suffered from three tick borne diseases. I have searched the world over on a quest for healing. Hope is a word Lyme sufferers soon learn is not part of their vocabulary. Bryan Rosner opens the door to hope and offers a roadmap to restored health. By turning the pages of this book, you will learn how to turn the course of suffering. A Lyme sufferer himself, Rosner has paved the way, thank God, for all of us. --Mary Brescia, R.N.
Reader Reviews
I am a preventive medicine specialist and do not actively treat Lyme Disease with antibiotics, but I definitely end up diagnosing this condition in many people who come to me with a wide variety of chronic, multi-system complaints. I refer out to LLD's, and help patients keep their hormones, adrenal function and toxicity clearance in stable condition while they pursue treatment. I watch them, as some get better, but many also get worse. For those who feel as Bryan Rosner felt, after consulting a multitude of physicians and paying thousands of dollars for the very latest treatments, that you are not better and you are "on your own", get this book. Chronic Lyme disease sufferers are often on their own, with not even the enlightened health care practitioner to turn to, if antibiotics fail to heal them. Mr. Rosner, a journalist, a Lyme disease sufferer and a very intelligent man, found himself on his own in this way and began a journey to recovery that he shared with many thousands of others, trying to heal from Lyme disease using alternative, often unusual techniques. He is careful to tell us when he is simply offerring an opintion (such as with his use of the Marshall protocol), and to tell us that he is not a healthcare practitioner but he has worked hard to get a concensus view from hundreds if not thousands of people who are trying alternative treatments with success. He tells us about the war-like controversies among the medical professionals about how to treat this condition, and aptly points out that even the most enlightened of these does not guarantee a cure for people who have suffered with the condition for many years, especially if they have severe adverse reactions to antibiotics. I deeply appreciate this survey of what is working for people who have not gotten help from antibiotics alone or herbs alone. We desparately need such dialogue. The book is cogently written, easy to follow, very well organized and thorough. These treatments may or may not work for you if you have Lyme Disease, but you will have gained a good deal of insight and knowledge about the disease and about what many other people are doing to get well. The bottom line is that it is up to you, and if you find yourself abandoned by medicine or unable to tolerate antibiotic treatment, this book is definitely worth the read. Dr. Tedde M. Rinker, Redwood City, CA.
