Just Some Quotes..

"10-15% of those with the Lyme bacteria progress to chronic Lyme disease." - Pat Smith, Lyme Disease Association Website
"These [chronic lyme disease] patients are in a condition worse than patients with marked congestive heart failure. They are two and a half standard deviations from normal--among the most deviant of any chronic illness." - Mark S. Klempner, M.D., NIH Extramural Lyme Study Principal Investigator, January 1998.
"Lyme is an enigma. While the debate rages over proper diagnostic and treatment procedures, patients get sicker and some even die." - Pat Smith, LDA, NY Assembly Hearing Nov, 2001
"I am struck by how Lyme disease never seems to act exactly the way it is supposed to, how each individual seems to respond differently to the spirochete." - Polly Murray, "The Widening Circle"
