LYME DISEASE IN UK/EUROPE

Those in Europe who suffer with Lyme disease can pass this information on to their doctors, lets hope many of our doctors attend this conference in London, which is the first time ILADS has held a conference over this side of the pond.

It is not open for patients to attend but lets hope the presentations made are eventually available on DVD, as many of the ILADS conferences are.

I have added links to information about each of the above presenters but they are only ones I found as a lay person who is taking an interest in the controversy over this illness Lyme Disease and it's many complex presentations, there are many more links into a wealth of information for those sufficiently interested to look.
