    Most people who have it know why, and it has to do with the large swathes of chuds (and libs too) who insist it isn’t real, just in your head, an excuse to be lazy, etc. etc. Almost any chronic illness that is hard to diagnose and can’t be pinned with complete unambiguous medical certainty to a single clear cause gets that sort of treatment. There are still so many people who don’t even believe Lyme disease is real.

          Yeah, and it isn’t a problem that there are so many people who don’t believe Lyme disease is real, because it isn’t.

              Stop trying to hook the chronic lyme scam bandwagon to other stuff. Your posts are very much “one of these things is not like the other”.

                Um… stop accusing me of weird bullshit while denying reality and calling a medical reality and the experience of countless disabled people pseudoscience?

                Anyway, ashiniadash, here you can see why that topic is high on the list of controversial wikipedia pages. Libs gonna lib ig.

                  The medical reality is the symptoms people experience. The complete bullshit is telling people this is due to mystical nonexistent spirochetes in their blood that can only be treated with a long course of IV antibiotics. This has absolutely fucking nothing to do with liberalism, jfc.

                    Right, that’s exactly what I said. Just like I said Long Covid is actually the result of vaccines. Seriously, you’re telling me “my posts” (btw, what are you even referring to? Do we have a history or something?) are this thing you’ve made up in your head about me because I am pointing out the FACT that a condition exists despite many misled denialists. Chronic Lyme is as real as long covid is even though we don’t know what the underlying cause of it is.

                    The medical reality is the symptoms people experience

                    No shit! Which is because Lyme Disease is real! Fucking hell, what is your problem?

            Acute Lyme disease is 100% unarguably real, the issue is chronic Lyme disease which is based on pseudoscience. The people are most likely suffering from some other idiopathic disease and are being taken advantage of for profit
