TREATMENT
International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society
Hopeful, Stronger.
Everyone’s journey with Lyme disease is different and that is why it is so important to see an ILADS educated Lyme expert. These are medical professionals who have been specifically trained by ILADS about Lyme & associated diseases.
While we are currently unable to provide direct treatment for individual treatment, we have partnered with two incredible granting organizations: LYMELIGHT FOUNDATION (serving US residents under the age of 25) & LYME TREATMENT FOUNDATION (serving US & Canadian residents of any age.) We hope to be able to collaborate with additional international grant-makers in the near future.
RESEARCH
HOPE
It often may take multiple calls, e-mails, doctors visits and different treatments to find what you feel may be the best path for you. We hope that you will not get discouraged along the way, even though it may be quite frustrating and exhausting. There is always HOPE and you are never alone.
Real men fight lyme.
Thank you Avril!
