Sorry if I was a wee bit harsh in my comment.

If these patients get a diagnostic, even if it is not Lyme, I am sure that would help them very much.

It is true that the medicine is more than often not yet capable of giving satisfying diagnostics, and that misdiagnostic is counterproductive...

However I remember I saw some sound studies on biofilm protein immunity that was triggering autoimmune disorder, in relation to the borreliosis. This is why I had this strong opinion. I will report here if I manage to retrieve the exact reference.
