Lyme Disease Support Group
Lyme disease is the most common vector-borne disease in the Northern Hemisphere. It is now one of the fastest growing infectious diseases in the U.S. Lyme disease is caused by infection with the Borrelia burgdorferi bacteria, and is primarily transmitted to humans as well as dogs, horses and other domesticated animals by the bite of infected ticks.
In my community (in Florida) Lyme diagnosis is like a multi level marketing plan. I was diagnosed. I then diagnosed a friend. who has himself diagnosed 2 people. etc...
It pisses me off that we diagnose each other. Isnt this waht doctors are supposed to do.
