"Symptoms of Lyme disease"

About: West Sussex PCT

(as the patient),

I went to see my GP today to ask her opinion on chronic Lyme as I believe now that I have had it for 10 years. The test done came back negative but as she even said her self it is only about 40% accurate!! I have many unexplained symptoms and even with my limited knowledge on the subject, it seems to me they are clasic Lyme signs. I was sold it was very unlikly Lyme and to basically go away.

I do see a Rheumatologist and was told to go back and see her. I left feeling very low and upset. Luckily I have a good source of info and will it look have to go private and into debt for diagnosis and treatment, I have paid my taxes for many years and feel very let down.
