I have been reading "Lyme Disease and Rife Machines" by Bryan Rosner. What I really find fascinating about this book is the explanation of Lyme. I have been sick the better part of 38 years, so I have had a lot of time to comptemplate what is going on. I have done a ton of research, not specifically about Lyme alone, but the idea that I was sick due to chronic infection, likely due to some sort of stealth pathogens. I have been fortunate to work with some great doctors even before I knew I had Lyme. Once I learned I had Lyme, so much came into even clearer focus.
In this book it was so exceiting to see that many researchers of Lyme have come to the same conclusions that I had. Not because I am some science wizz, but because of my own personal experiences.
Example: I have had the idea for probably 4 years, that there really is nothing wrong with our immune system. It works just like it should, but it was having a tough time finding this pathogen. This book explained in very easy language what I have been suspecting for some time.
I've also wondered for some years, what all of the fluish feelings we have are all about. I've wondered if it feels so much like the herx, then maybe it is like the herx. The book again confirms this thought. When we feel the crappiest it is likely our immune system is doing what it should do and it is trying to bring this infection under control. It's killing the infection and we are basically herxing. Then we may feel better for a bit, and that is because the Lyme goes into a defensive position waiting for our immune system to back off. So amazing these little creatures!
So if you haven't read this book, you really ought too, EVEN if you aren't interested in Rifing. It is one of the clearest and extensive explanations of how Lyme works I've seen yet.
