Hi, Kiwikid. You might try looking at this list, which has a few good "basics" books: Reading List for Lyme
And don't be afraid to consider the young adult book by Yannielli, Lyme Disease. Sometimes the YA books can be a great way to get an overview of a topic.
If you would like help locating these books through your local library, drop me a private message with your location. For example, the Lang, Vanderhoof-Forschner, and Yanielli books can be borrowed from the Tulsa City-County Library and many others in OK.
Hope that gets you started,
Shaz

Yeast is kinda related to lyme so incase you are interested I thought that this was a very easy to read book on Yeast
"The Yeast Connection"

A fascinating, and therefore easy-to-read, at least for me, book is Cure Unknown by Pamela Weintraub. It was just released and you will have to get it from Amazon, probably.
It's a pretty solid story that mixes personal stories with good scientific info. There are some recent posts on it here.

Hi!
Essential: www.ilads.org and go the menu on the left. Click "Treatment Guidelines." That takes you to two excellent guidelines. PRINT BOTH!
These are the starting point.
Good book that gives overall view of Lymeland, but printed in 2004: Coping With Lyme Disease, by Denise Lang and Kenneth Leigner MD.
Two books just printed by PJ Langhoff: It's All In Your Head, Books 1 & 2.
This isn't about treatment types, really, it contains many stories written by patients and that can be comforting for those having Lyme a long time: no, you're not crazy!
The best to you.

I just received Cure Unknown in the mail. I've only had a chance to check out the index and a few random pages, but...

Thanks all. The book I have is "Confronting Lyme Disease" by Karen Yerger and Rita Stanley. It is a book about 15 different people and their stories. An eye opener and it's also very upsetting if you read it right after you get the diagnosis. So I put it down for a while and read other things.
