"Farnsworth considers herself to be one of the lucky ones as she believes the majority of people who contract Lyme disease in Canada are misdiagnosed with other illnesses. Even after a positive diagnosis, short-term antibiotic treatments aren’t always effective. Sufferers who travel to the U.S. for diagnosis and treatment do so on their own as Canada’s health system doesn’t recognize the U.S. test results or fund out-of-country treatments."
