Hundreds of thousands Americans are infected a year.
There are 300,000 Americans who are infected with Lyme disease each year. And many of those thousands of people are unaware that they are even infected with this chronic disease. Imagine one day waking up with harsh agonizing pain going throughout your whole body. This pain then continues throughout days, weeks, months and years and not knowing the reason why. You then go to your doctor, which they do common test to get no answer. He/she then sends you to many other doctors (Neurologist, rheumatologists etc.) to undergo many test such as (electroencephalogram, electromyogram, an MRI of the cervical spine, and blood test). And still after going through all of those procedures, you are given the same answer from all of the rest which is, they do not have the answer for your symptoms. At this moment you have to live with the fact that there is no cure, or no cause, it is just something that you have to learn to live with.
