It would be a good follow-up to the law that was just signed in VA saying that patients must be told in writing that a negative Lyme test doesn't mean they don't have Lyme.
If different states keep getting laws passed like these, well, I just have to believe that it will continue to put pressure on the "establishment" and maybe, eventually things will change for us and our doctors and we can all come out of the shadows for good.

PA has tried for years to get this kind of legislation passed and has not yet succeeded. The insurance part almost makes this a poison pill. They would be better off, IMO, getting doctors protected as the first stage. What use to get insurance coverage if no doctors in the state are able to treat them.?
