RE: CHRONIC LYME DISEASE IS A REAL THING, NOT BOGUS!
Wow! What a shame that many people have to suffer because doctors would rather turn a blind eye and treat for something else instead of finding the actual problem.
Most of the doctors who are willing to look for the root cause and address it instead of treating the symptoms risk having their practice/ license removed or they get discredited by the medical community.
Thats just terrible! Why do you think that is?
Big Pharma has to profit. Otherwise how will they make money if people don't buy meds?
Well of course! But its to the point where doctors will have their licenses removed for treating Lyme Disease at early stages? It just doesnt make sense to me. I understand Big Pharma will do what it will to keep people buying meds and theres many doctors who are in the pocket of Big Pharma but I just dont see how they can lose their licenses from actually trying to cure the disease before it has detrimental effects on the person. I would hope that theres doctors who stand up for the right thing.
The medical community follows the Infectious Disease Society of America (IDSA) guidelines when it comes to treatment for Lyme. They state that Lyme can be cured with a two weeks antibiotic treatment, which is not quite accurate. They do not recognize Lyme as a chronic illness. Thus the doctors who do not respect their guidelines and try to prescribe long-term antibiotic treatment get penalized.
