New Paradigms in Lyme Disease Treatment: 10 Top Doctors Reveal Healing Strategies That Work

I was expecting, I guess a book that was different after hearing the author do an interview with Doug Addison. After reading through five of the ten doctors "ideas" on what Lyme is and is not, I have found myself no closer to an answer to my own Lyme condition than I was before I purchased this book for $29.99. Yes, the author Connie Strasheim interviewed these ten Doctors, but I too could have googled them, to dig into their scientific jargon . 80% of their interview is so not in layman's terms. The idea of one doctor to come and get "their" foot soaking detox remedy at $1200-2400 a pop.... well, please let's get real here. As a sufferer of Lyme, barely getting out of bed at times, where will I get that kind of money to fly to a doctor and then pay for this detox session??? In the five doctors interviewed so far, that I have read so far, no new herbal remedies or information was given that have not been able to dig up in my own searching on the internet. I honestly feel I wasted $29.99 in purchasing this book. If your new to the whole Lyme business, then yes, it will give you information, but very little in the area of hands on, affordable help, for us suffers of Lyme.

Great Book on Lyme Disease. This book is full of lots of helpful information and approaches to Lyme. It is very comprehensive and gives some of the more advanced ideas of today to help really get to the hiding places of Lyme like going to a doctor who uses dark field blood work with a microscope like a bacterial Naturopathic MD for true Lyme Diagnosis, real lab tests that work and those that don't and working with a Licensed Dentist that specializes in Biological Dentistry. Also, discussed things like using doctor done IV Ozone, home Insufflations with Ozone, getting rid of parasites, bio-film and metals and strengthening the heart arteries where Lyme goes to inflame and cause heart issues. I would also add that the author was not aware that now some Biological Dentists (after a CT scan of the Jaw bone) are using Laser's rather then surgery (which is not as effective) to fight Lyme that hides out in the jaw bone and creates nests by dissolving the calcium inside the jaw bone below the teeth. There they continue to re-infest someone who has Lyme further making anti-biotic or other protocols ineffective, till a Dentist with a specialty in this area can go in and do the Laser work to kill the nests and change the ph balance of the Jaw so the Lyme can't or won't likely make nests in that area again to keep someone ill. We did this with my husband and it has made a huge difference. It was expensive, but surgery would have been more so and less effective likely. I also would say that some of the herbal products mentioned in the book are not available to consumer's only to doctors to order for them. However, there are some products as well that are. Also, I think that the author made the book a bit hard to follow because she broke things down by the 10 doctors discussed. So, one has to go through the book and put together their own plan based upon what they can afford and what ideas each doctor shares. The author seems pretty compassionate towards people and the fact that finding a doctor to help you is out of reach cost wise and often anti-biotic use to fight this fails and other types of proto-cols need to be looked at. However, she does advocate that people need to be under supervision and work with a doctor to handle this. I am not so hip on this, while I understand that it is a book highlighting these doctors and what they do, the truth is, that most people are on their own to fix this issue. Good doctors in this are hard to find and cost a lot. The one we found had treatments starting at $4,000 cash up front. It was out of our budget. We had to find a home source for Ozone that was reliable and work on using clay and cilantro for Ionic foot baths to pull metals VS this books 2,000 plus ionic foot bath they talk about and home infra-red sauna (we made our own light for $100.00 and use our bath tub with curtains) for a mini sauna for immune boosting, essential oils for bio-film etc.. The doctor we found was a specialist in bacteria, mold, fungus and parasites who used dark field work and real labs and was a Licensed MD and Licensed Naturopath. He was good for diagnosis, that was it. Insurances often won't help you with Biological Dentistry, IV ozone that works or Colon Ozone Insufflations that you can do at home that do work (which the author says you need a doctors supervision for, but don't really if you do your homework for safety on this), essential oils that work and herbal products which are more effective then antibiotics which can strengthen the bio-film Lyme hides in and builds antibiotic resistance of Lyme bacteria. Overall, great book, worth anyone's time to read and get solutions for Lyme.

There's not much to say about Lyme Disease. If you have late-stage Lyme as I do you read all you can. I've just in the past day connected with another Lyme sufferer that's going to send me information about what she's found that helps. These various books are great resources to we with Chronic late-stage Lyme.

I bought the Healing Lyme book by Stephen Buhner per my doctors orders and I ordered everything in the core protocol as fast as I could.The herbs are working great - yay! I've very grateful I listened to my doc!I happened to order this book though since it's copyright date was 2016 and hearing the latest info from a number of docs couldn't hurt. I'm so happy I ordered it!First, having just been diagnosed with Lyme a month ago, the Buhner book is a bit intense for me. When you're still in shock about having lyme, reading whole chapters on co-infections is the last thing a gal wants to deal with. With this book, it's a much easier adjustment for me. There is less intellectual data devoted to co-infections and more pragmatic info - telling me herbs and tools to get rid of the evil bacteria.Second, every doc talks about herxing as not being a good thing. Buhner might say this too (I don't know). I would have tried to power through the herxing but for the good explanation as to why it's not good and every doc reiterating this. So I'm grateful for that.Another thing, there is a small part of me that wonders if the herbs I'm taking will stop working. But if they do...no problem. I have plenty of backup strategies mine for the taking with this book. Wahoo!Lastly, it's really fascinating how docs will use different herbs and tools to achieve the same thing. I found out detoxing is important...but there are so many ways to do it. I'm creating a spreadsheet with the diff protocols for it and from what chapter...along with the website, etc. It's also fascinating when they use the same herbs, etc.Connie Strasheim - for your next book, can you please do the exact same thing except for yeast/candida/fungus? When I'm off my anti-biotics, I'm going to need that and you do a marvelous job!

If you're Looking for s holistic Lyme specialist this book is for you.The protocol of ten of the best Lyme doctors are deataied in this book. It is understandably written. It helped me choose my doctor. Read the book after listening to an impressive interview with the author.

If you are loved ones have Lyme disease, this book is a must for you. It gives you all of the details of how to control and get well from this dreadful disease that inflicting so many people in America.

Great book for learning about Lyme and alternative forms of healing. I have bought multiple copies as gifts.

Excellent Book! Very informative! It's helping me already, I can tell.

Excellent

Not yet finished this book, rich with information on current approaches to Lyme. But it offers hope to the long suffering individuals who have had to endure the indifference of the medical profession towards a condition that many have said is worse than almost any other, including cancer. I applaud Connie, a Lyme sufferer herself, for marshalling her energies to offer a true journalistic service to the Lyme community.

Excellent book! Excellent information. If you have Lyme disease please listen to these experts. The conventional medical system has no idea how dangerous Lyme disease is. They have misdiagnosed Lyme over and over again. We need more Lyme literate doctors.

This book is full of lots of very useful information - and hope that those who may never get an accurate diagnosis can manage their symptoms. Too bad the Kindle version is priced the same as the hard copy.

Great information and helps realize importance or sticking to treatment till Lyme irraticated!
