Can't Afford Testing? There Is Help and Hope!

Thankfully, there are resources for those people who cannot afford testing for Lyme disease.  Many who have Lyme, are too sick to work and lack insurance.  For others, their insurance may not cover Lyme disease.  Insurance also may not cover testing at some of the most reliable Lyme disease labs.   I had to pay for my own Western Blot tests.

There is an organization that can help with these costs.  You will need to read the eligibility requirements and fill out an application form.  Funds are limited, and first come first serve. Click on the link below to find the forms.

Many people use crowd funding to pay for living expenses, travel, and medical bills when they have chronic Lyme disease or have no medical coverage for Lyme disease.

If  you are able, please help contribute funds to help others get treatment.  There are many who are suffering.
