Is late Lyme neuroborreliosis treatable?
This article is dedicated to the problem of Lyme borreliosis, particularly to its later forms causing damage to the nervous system, and with an emphasis on the possibilities of its diagnosis and treatment. Lyme borreliosis occurs relatively often in the Czech Republic and patients are treated by doctors of various specializations. For the most part, it is the later forms of the disease that cause the biggest difficulties. Nevertheless, even these cases can be successfully treated, if in fact an active borreliosis infection is actually the cause of the symptoms.
Keywords: lyme borreliosis, lyme neuroborreliosis, post-lyme syndrome, antibiotic therapy.
