About this audiobook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1Lyme disease is not just an East Coast problem. It has been reported in all states except for Hawaii, with hot spots in the northern Midwest and northern California. #2Dr. Al Miller, a rheumatologist, went up against the dogma of his own specialty and diagnosed his daughter-in-law with Lyme disease, which was causing her ALS. He then treated her with antibiotics, which completely halted the progression of her ALS and extended her life by seven years. #3The Miller case reflects the misdiagnoses that so many patients go through when diagnosed with a disease of unknown origin. The herding instinct is shown by how doctors were sticking to dogma over innovation, at the cost of human life. #4The name Lyme disease was a stroke of marketing genius. Its stereotypical sentinel rash, erythema migrans, was originally discovered more than a hundred years ago in Sweden by dermatologist Arvid Afzelius.
