RESOLUTION of the LDA Whereas, the IDSA guidelines severely restrict clinical judgment; Whereas, the IDSA guidelines deny the existence of chronic Lyme disease; Whereas, the IDSA guidelines are punitive in nature and restrict the use of entire classes of antibiotics, combinations of antibiotics, long-term treatment, pulsed dosing, alternative treatments, even supplements for any manifestation of Lyme disease, thus precluding all viable treatment options for patients with chronic Lyme disease; and Whereas, the restrictive IDSA guidelines will prevent patients from being diagnosed, treated, reimbursed for treatment, and will open treating physicians to medical board actions, Therefore, Be It Resolved That the Board of Direction of the Lyme Disease Association, Inc. adopts this resolution at its regularly scheduled board meeting on this 13th day of December, 2006, calling for the revocation of the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) guidelines.
