It will hopefully be available less expensively soon.
From CALDA:
Lorraine Johnson, J.D., M.B.A. and Ray Stricker, M.D. recently published "The treatment of Lyme disease: a medicolegal assessment" in Ex. Rev. Anti-Infect. Ther. 2(4),533-557 (2004).
The authors discuss
a) the medical basis for diagnostic and therapeutic uncertainty in Lyme disease, including variability in clinical presentation, shortcomings in laboratory testing procedures, and design defects in therapeutic trials and
b) the issues regarding the legal standard of care that apply to treating physicians and insurers caused by underlying scientific uncertainty in Lyme disease diagnosis and treatment. The authors highlight the role of evidence based medicine, patient autonomy, patient preference and informed consent in Lyme disease. An announcement about the article and how to acquire a copy is posted on the CALDA intranet

Could you just copy the url address when you are on the Stricker article page...just copy your address line when on that page?
I would like to read it but, alas, do not have the time right now to find it from the Homepage link you provided.
Thanks,
Rosemary
I've done a lot and I mean a lot of searching for the best pharmacy via the web in Canadian, and have even tried others only to be disappointed with their customer service and their turnaround time...which one was 3 weeks before I got my drugs.
So, I will continue to send out this information in hopes that others will find this one as good as I have found them to be.
