Hmmm. this is from 2015 I think.

"The updated Lyme disease diagnosis and treatment guidelines were released by the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA)."

I have yet to read this part: "More information about so-called "chronic" or post-Lyme syndromes. This refers to patients who report a variety of non-specific symptoms -- such as generalized pain, joint pain, or fatigue -- after they've been appropriately treated with antibiotics."

IDSA and ILIADS need to chat.

Thank you for bring this to our attention, Astroman. This stuff can't be on our own site, in my opinion.

If only IDSA would even begin to listen to anyone else other than their own 'buddies'! The will even rig the game in order to avoid having others that have different opinions in any meetings.

Dr. Burrascano explains why this crazy PTLDS / Chronic lyme controversy exists, a bit of history is always good to understand what's going on in the present:
