Fund treatment and research on chronic Lyme disease

Petition Details

We ask the Government to:
- Provide funding to the NHS for specialist clinics, treatment options, and long-term support.
- Invest in scientific research into chronic Lyme disease and co-infections.

Additional Information

Some patients continue to suffer long-term, debilitating symptoms after Lyme disease infections, yet we are concerned that many are left without proper care, recognition, or treatment pathways. We believe NHS services often only provide sufficient support for short-term infection, leaving chronic sufferers unsupported.

Patients deserve proper medication, not to have to go to foreign countries to be diagnosed or treated. The illness is true and is spreading vastly over the years.
