Address the epidemic of Lyme disease.
Acknowledge Existence of Chronic Lyme Disease & Co-Infections and Develop Legislation & Funding for Treatment.
Chronic Lyme Disease has reached epidemic proportions. It is the great imitator, fooling doctors into treating patients for other diseases such as Chronic Fatigue, MS, Heart Disease, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psychiatric Illness, ALS, etc. Yet, according to the CDC, it “does not exist”.
It has been clinically diagnosed in every state. As sufferers of the disease and its surrounding politics, we urgently request:
1. Legislation Expanding the Definition of Lyme Disease to Cover Chronic Lyme and Co-infections
2. Increased Funding for Research into Chronic Lyme Disease and Co-infections
3. Education for the public
4. Improved treatment by M.D's
