Solving the Lyme Dilemma

Thousands of people are suffering with chronic Lyme which is unnecessary because it is not as difficult as you might think to treat. Why?

Are You in the Driver's Seat?

Do you know what your blood pressure is? Do you know if you are borderline anemic? Did your last blood test include A1C? How many different physicians do you see in a year?
