THERE'S A CURRENT EFFORT TO RE-CATEGORIZE CHRONIC LYME DISEASE as AUTOIMMUNE! GO to the link below to read more & help protest --
'They' want to place it under a term apparently coined by P.A.N.D.O.R.A. for their own purposes, specifically, "Neuro-Endocrine Immune Disorder."
Lyme disease (chronic or acute) has... a KNOWN ORIGIN - Borrelia burgdorferi. It should not be classified (with other) conditions which are (currently) treated only to manage symptoms.
Managing symptoms ONLY, while allowing a complex infection to progress unabated, is NOT in the best interests of patients with Chronic Lyme disease."
