Lyme Disease

Share Your Testimony

Nothing is more critical to fighting Lyme and tick-borne diseases than hearing the voices of patients, families, experts, and others affected by these illnesses. Only by ensuring that all voices have a seat at the table can the country work together to end the scourge of these insidious diseases.
At a recent Senate Health, Education and Labor Committee field hearing Senator Blumenthal hosted in Stamford, several individuals who have been affected by Lyme disease testified about their experiences. But they only represent a small fraction of the lives touched by these afflictions. All individuals with a story to tell about tick-borne illness can share it for the Committee record by submitting testimony below. The official record of the hearing will remain open until Thursday, September 13^th.
Please be mindful that your testimony will be submitted to the Record of the United States Senate. Please refrain from personal attacks or other comments that detract from, rather than add to, public discourse.
