Apparently, there is a new hotline for Lyme.

Well,

that would depend on who is running it. I can't quite tell. Do you know who they are; what kind of information they are passing along?

I remember decades ago when I found a lyme hotline and it turned out to be from the IDSA for the lyme foundation. They gave me such wrong information but I had no way of knowing that for years afterward.

I hope this group is accurate and on board.

When I tried to go to their website obtained through a Google search of phone / name:

www.lyme.org/index2.html

Lyme Disease National Hotline

The web took me to a caution page:

This website has been reported as unsafe: www.lyme.org


It looked "safe enough" so I just typed in the URL and got:

"This site is temporarily unavailable." and "Domain not valid" in the URL tab.

Glad it did not kidnap me, still, I will now clear my cookies and clear computer of any invisible stuff, just in case.

When I called,

it first connected me to some odd business portal ("blue" was in the name but not an insurance) where I could leave a message for .

Second time: "you have dialed a number that is not available from your calling area"

Sorry, didn't mean to post something not legit... My intention was good, but I didn't check it out first, like I should have... :(

Mods, feel free to delete this thread.
