PLEASE RESPOND TO CALDA'S LYME SURVEY

Many with Lyme have taken the CALDA survey already, however...



. . . they still would like to have 300 more people respond. A summary of the data collected will be presented at the upcoming IDSA Lyme Guideline Review Panel Hearing at the end of July.



Please take a few minutes to complete this survey and share this note with others who have Lyme disease.



Thank you!

Sorry Lyme2...

It is 2 late.

She is on the way to DC now.

Maybe.. and this is just my wishful thinking...

She will keep it going afterward?

The results were amazing though, so far.

Over 3,000 patients filled out the survey in just a few weeks!

What a network of people we've got.... beautiful work!

Team work!
