So I'm prepared to get a lot of flack for this but I have to say as much as the other doc was wrong about a lot of things he did bring up some valid points. It is important to remember its not always Lyme causing the symptoms and other possibilities need to be investigated. Also the point that all the treatment may have adversely affected the body and perhaps its not chronic Lyme, just the mess that Lyme left behind.

Check out this link. The Drs answered a few of the facebook questions. Giving Dr Halperin equal time to spew more lies is going to lead to deaths.

it would have been so much better if they asked the same question to both docs...
i give them credit for providing a place with more equal time tho

One other thing I noticed that was great, the first lyme patient kept referring to her md as 'lyme literate'.
I think she got her point across and you know the IDSA guy had to be fuming over that.
