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:

Denise Lang's book too. Can't remember the name of it. I gave my copy to the local library last year.

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.

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.

I used to post Matthew's site. He was a member here many years ago. I'm pretty sure he is well now!

Stephen Buhner's Healing Lyme. This guy has done a lot of research and is also a good writer. I thought it was a great book.
