i think the fact that believe in chronic lyme is because they are being told its a possibility, if they have any symptoms, when it doesnt even fit symptoms of lyme. from those communities in different forums. one of the favorite things they like to do is, attributing any rash that looks like a bullseyes rash of lyme, or a neurological issue they attributed to it, when they were never near lyme infested woods before, also the type of ticks doesnt fit either.
the LLMD reels them in by other bunch of unsanctioned tests, so they keep coming back to them.
