So, You Have Been Diagnosed with Lyme Disease!

For a brief synopsis:(Click)

In order to help you better understand Lyme Disease, we have organized Lyme disease into the following categories. Each category contains links to pages, both within this website and outside the website. Some of these links will be similar to the overview presented in the preceeding paragraph. However, much more detail and links have been added or will be added to increase the database of information on Lyme Disease.

Our concern here is not to present where Lyme disease started, why there is such an epidemic at this point in time or why the mainstream medical community has been slow to recognize Lyme disease. Our primary concern is simply, what is Lyme disease, how do we diagnose it and how do we treat it.

Diagnosis of Lyme Disease

Lyme disease is a clinical diagnosis and not diagnosed by a blood test. The CDC and major medical groups agree that the diagnosis of Lyme disease is a clinical diagnosis, meaning, that a physician who is knowledgeable about Lyme disease can make the diagnosis. A blood test usually follows the clinical evaluation. Even if the blood test is negative however, a clinical diagnosis of Lyme disease may be made based on the symptoms of the patient. See the following for more information on diagnosis.
