THE
DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT
OF BABESIA by James Schaller, M.D.
Lyme's Cruel Cousin: The Other
Tick-Borne Infection
Do you or a loved one experience excess fatigue? Have you ever had unusually high fevers, chills
or sweats? You may have Babesia, a very
common tick-borne infection. Babesia is often found with Lyme
Disease, and,
like all tick-borne infections, is rarely diagnosed
and reported accurately.
The
deer tick which carries Lyme Disease and Babesia may be as
small as a poppy seed and injects a painkiller, an
antihistamine and an anticoagulant to avoid
detection. As a result, many people have Babesia and
do not know it. Numerous forms of Babesia are carried by deer
ticks - this book introduces patients and health
care workers to the various species that infect
humans and are not routinely tested for by sincere
physicians.
Dr. Schaller first became interested in Babesia
after one of his children was infected with it, and
none of the elite pediatricians or child specialists
could help. No one tested for Babesia or considered
it a possible diagnosis. His child had just two of
these Babesia symptoms which would come and go:
- Significant Fatigue
- Coughing
- Dizziness
- Trouble Thinking
- Fevers
- Chills
- Air Hunger
- Headache
- Sweats
Dr. Schaller gained expertise in diagnosing and
treating Babesia through personal experience in his
family, extensive research and study, and
eventually, a long track record of clinical
experience. This book is the most current and
comprehensive book on Babesia in the English
language. It is not a mere reference book - it
introduces many new, cutting edge facts and concepts
that are unfamiliar to internists, family doctors,
pediatricians, infectious disease physicians and
emergency physicians.
The book reviews thousands of articles and
presents the results of interviews with world
experts on the subject. It offers you top
information and broad treatment options, presented
in a clear and simple manner. You will discover
advanced treatment options from both traditional and
alternative medicine. All treatments are explained
thoroughly including their possible side effects,
drug interactions, various dosing strategies,
pros/cons, and physician experiences.
Finally, the book also addresses many other aspects of
practical medical care often overlooked in this
infection such as treatment options for
fatigue.
Plainly stated, this book is a must-have for
patients and practitioners who deal with Lyme
Disease and its co-infections. To get an idea of

"When I called the State Department of Health in Connecticut in the fall of 2006 concerning some health issues that looked like they may have been tick related, I was told that babesia and ehrlichiosis have been emerging in Midddlesex County in Connecticut and that my son and I should check ourselves for this. Babesia is not a common test that doctors think of giving and doctors are not used to seeing what babesia looks like. Dr. Schaller's book on Babesia sheds much light on babesia symptoms, testing, and treatment. Anyone who has had Lyme and still is having problems should consider reading this book, as co-infections can be missed when Lyme is diagnosed. His book is easy to read. It is an impressive work and will give the patient good information to share with his/her doctor. Dr. Schaller uses common sense in his research and
it is refreshing!"
