In the past I would go to the library and pick up 3 or 4 books on one subject and leaf through them looking for info that I thought was pertinent. These days I am lucky if I can read through my mail! That said, I was wondering if there is a book out that might be considered the Lyme disease (and coinfection) Bible. I might be able to manage that one!
Thank you.

- It will help to know your intention?
History / understanding the science of lyme;
Politics of lyme;
Comparing LL doctors' approaches; or
Suggestions for your own care (advice on supplements, diet, etc.). -

This is the closest thing to a lyme disease and coinfection Bible:

My all time favorite which I've shared with tons of people over the years- and it is easy enough even a doctor can understand it.
Lyme Disease: The Basics
By Doug Fearn
Lots of details, but not a hard read. Plus it is free to print off the website and/or you can order them from the SE PA Lyme group for a small donation that would cover printing- less than $1.00 I believe.
Look on the right side of the website page and you will see the book.

For a reference especially regarding treatments and supplements: The Lyme Disease Solution by Dr S
For an interesting and justifying read about the unpublished research regarding Lyme: Cure Unknown

You could watch "Under Our Skin" on Hulu. I believe it's still up there. It's free, you just have to login.
The Buhner book was the most helpful for me.

Insights Into Lyme Treatment by Connie Strasheim because you get 13 doctor viewpoints in one book. I learned a lot from this book, although much of it is standard ILADS stuff that can be learned elsewhere. But having it in a book makes it easier.

I agree The Lyme Disease Solution by Dr. S. It goes over everything, including co-infections and treatment options.
Then when you want to understand the insane political aspects of treatment and why most doctors refuse to go against CDC guidlines, buy Cure Unknown by Pam W. That is such an eye opener!

Dr. B's guide lines are the easiest to make sense of. And a name I trust.
also liked Dr. S's book.
Cure Unknown is very validating and reads like a medical mystery novel. with it's own real life plot twists and turns.
