Updated 2015 - Have you seen numerous medical health care providers and have not been given a clear diagnosis for your unusual and sometimes bizarre symptoms? Have you been told "it's all in your head," and then referred to a psychiatrist? Have you been unusually tired to the point of total fatigue and yet been told that your lab results are all perfectly normal? This is the story of a deadly and subtle 'killer.' Lyme is a disease which via a painless and apparently harmless insect bite infiltrates the human body and destroys it by slow stealth. It has the ability to maim and kill millions of innocent victims. There is already much vocal concern by thousands of medical professionals who recognize the need for a 'red alert' on Lyme disease. This book offers a valuable summary of the growing wealth of well-documented medical literature combined with an 'inside' look from a physician who has had to struggle to combat this deadly disease that you cannot afford to ignore
