Lyme disease rates are reaching epidemic proportions in North America, and Canadian doctors are reporting an increased number of Lyme cases in British Columbia. "In the past five years, the number of patients seeking treatment for Lyme disease has increased exponentially at our office, and is many times greater than those reported by public health officials. We are treating more cases of Lyme disease in Vernon than are reported every year in the entire province of B.C.".The CDC has publicly stated that they underestimated the number of cases of Lyme disease by 10 fold several years ago, and we are now seeing a similar situation with health care providers in B.C. We need a national strategy for improving the diagnosis and treatment of Lyme and associated tick-borne disorders, like H.R. 789, that is presently before Congress. A similar bill was passed through Canada last year.
