If you suspect Lyme, PLEASE find your local LLMD!!!
ILADS; International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society:
THIS IS HOW YOU FIND AN LLMD (LYME LITERATE DOCTOR)
Note: Optionally, sometimes your local Lyme disease support group will have a running list of the LLMD’s in the surrounding area. These Doctors come from all backgrounds; they are GP’s, Pediatricians, Neurologists, Infectious Disease Docs. They know the best testing facilities (usually IGENEX). MORE IMPORTANTLY: They understand ALL the current testing is flawed and they will treat based on symtomology. If you suspect Lyme PLEASE find your local LLMD!!!

Researching and Purchasing your books:
- Check out your usual book stop. They can order it in if it is not readily available.
- Most of these books can be found easily on Amazon for a good price, but comparison shopping is recommended. Don’t forget, you can order the used books cheaper! Check e-bay too.
http://amazon.com
Check out the “reviews” section on Amazon. Usually, the “most helpful review” will have an overview of what’s right and what’s lacking in each book. This can be very helpful when you are trying to decide which book is right for you, whether you shop with Amazon or not. - Don’t forget your local library! 🙂
