      Quick check: @CDCgov estimates that between 250,000 and 450,000 people get Lyme disease every year. So ... people know about it. https://www.cdc.gov/lyme/stats/humancases.html …https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1250112310930288641 …

      She is talking about so-called chronic Lyme disease, which many people don’t know about because it doesn’t exist. @LymeScience

      Ah yes. My favorite types in the medical community. “Well this couldn’t possibly exist because I’m a doctor 🤓 and know everything, but if there’s something I don’t know anything about then I just dismiss it.” Thanks for your “medical” opinion, doc. 💩pic.twitter.com/Ukt78W7dgU

      According to @AmerAcadPeds, “‘chronic #Lyme disease’ is not a medical diagnosis”. Medical experts around the world agree, based on 4 decades of science. Also be careful not to confuse the chronic #Lyme cult and it’s associated quackery with real symptoms.https://lymescience.org/scientific-consensus/ …

      1. The hell do you care? (Other than just making sure the world knows just how smart and science-y you are) 2. You think people with these inexplicable symptoms are crazy? making it up? trying to be popular? looking for pity? - How many patients have you dealt with?

      Pointing out the facts about "chronic Lyme disease" (namely that it does not exist) is not the same as saying that patients are making up their symptoms. Thousands are being unnecessarily treated with harsh antibiotics when they have no evidence of previous or current Lyme d.

          These "treatments" usually cost patients an arm and a leg (not covered by insurance) and can have life threatening side effects. Attributing symptoms to a diagnosis that doesn't exist hinders patients from getting a real diagnosis and treatment.

          These “treatments” are by choice because people are desperate for answers. You think some doctor is brainwashing them for the fun of it? (You obviously are just going off what you read in some medical journal, maybe get out their in the real world and “test” for yourself 🤷🏼‍♂️)

          Med student, eh? I see you’ve been working on your compassion and bed-side manner. You’ll do great for those patients of yours who have symptoms similar to others you’ve seen in the past. Run the same tests, put them on the same medicine and send them on their merry way.

          Drawing quite a few assumptions there... Modern medicine is not perfect, and there are too many patients that are brushed off by their docs, but making a killing from diagnosing and "treating" pts with a wide array of symptoms w/o evidence of infection is far from compassionate.

          It’s okay to say that you don’t know the answer to something. But painting with such a broad brush is intellectually dishonest, and the crux of the issue with modern medicine. They “think” they have it all figured out; Know it all, been there, done that.

          What’s the evidence of symptoms you are looking for? Surely not the acute, by-the-book symptoms that have been used (perhaps wrongly) for decades? Look at every other disease in the last 30 years and how our knowledge of it has changed through scientific research. Not so for Lyme

          Symptoms are one thing, though Lyme disease can present with many bizarre symptoms. When I say evidence, I mean of the bug living inside of a patient. We do this by culturing the bacteria in the blood/ even CSF, testing for bacterial DNA using PCR, and by testing for antibodies.
