Re: LNE definitions of late and chronic Lyme disease
Do you mean to tell me, that after all this time...all the endless 'discussions' about this issue...

It's DIRECTLY on-topic and I am asking you an extremely simple question to HELP you and others understand one another better.
This isn't a question that is directly about the meaning of the term "chronic Lyme"...
... it's a question designed to find out what Carina's understanding is of how others had been using the term: "chronic Lyme"...
...because, from what you said, it doesn't appear that you have correctly understood.
Understand?
I wonder if you would be so kind as to answer my question?

It's a VERY simple question, Carina.

Do you agree that this is correct or not:

A quote from the link above:
The terms “late” and “chronic” Lyme disease, as in syphilis, are synonymous and define tertiary Lyme disease. The use of “chronic” Lyme disease as a different entity is inaccurate and confusing.

Clinical Features
Infection can be subclinical (asymptomatic), or have a range of clinical presentations, depending on the tissues affected, the duration of infection, host factors such as the vulnerability of the immune system and immunogenetic factors which could predispose the patient to the development of certain complications. Clinical presentations can generally be divided into three stages but progress from an early to later stage is not inevitable, even if the infection is untreated. The three stages are named early localised LB, early disseminated LB and late (chronic) LB.

Thank you!
Can anyone give us a reliable source for this use of the definition above!Chronic Lyme disease = persistent symptoms associated with Lyme disease after "appropriate" antibiotic treatment, without clinical evidence of persistent Lyme disease.
And I also want it to be written without quotation marks.
Thank you!
