CDC - do they recogize mental/cognitive disorders

[Santi]

Hi Everyone-

 

I am fighting my HMO to pay for our son's Lyme treatment. I know, I know, but its worth a try.

 

Does anyone know of any articles from the CDC that mention anything about cognitive and or mental disorders relating to Lyme I can use as evidence for my case? I have searched but could not find a thing. Their symptoms list is vague-doesn't go beyond the typical bullseye rash, fever, etc. Or is this part of their political agenda? Andrea

The NIH put out a white paper on PANDAS within the last year or so. Not Lyme, but since a lot of the treatment is similar, maybe you could go under that umbrella.
