Lyme Disease Explained

Lyme Disease Explained by Frederick Earlstein brings together many of the current medical and scientific news and findings on Lyme disease and brings it all together in an easy to read guidebook. Lyme disease is quickly becoming a widespread infection worldwide, and in the United States alone, is estimated to affect at least 300,000 Americans each year.

What can be done to prevent infection? How can you tell if the symptoms you are experiencing point to Lyme disease? How is this disease diagnosed, and what treatments are available? This book offers you all this information and more, as we also take a look at the history of Lyme disease, and the controversies that have surrounded this disease since its causative agent the Borrelia burgdorferi was first identified.
