Lyme Disease Exists

Stop denying chronic Lyme disease exists and allow insurance companies to pay for the treatment of it

Why is this important?

I have chronic Lyme disease because my primary care doctor misidentified a tick on me, removed it, then refused a to allow testing for Lyme disease. I have been forced, due to the controversy over chronic Lyme disease, to face ridicule, disbelief, discrimination, inhumane treatment, loss of family, friends, and financial resources. The CDC and IDSA must recognize chronic Lyme disease and insurance companies must pay.
