This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Community: Knowledge & Support

I had a Lyme disease test come back positive from Igenex lab and I was diagnosed with PPMS. Every time I read about diagnosing PPMS I read that Lyme disease should be ruled out. So I can't understand why the neurologist are saying that Lyme disease doesn't exist here in Canada when I know that is not true and why two other doctors just ignore the Lyme disease diagnosis. I am planning on going back to my doctor and ask them to do more for me regarding this Lyme disease diagnosis.

Does anyone else have Lyme disease ruled out prior to the MS diagnosis?

Here's a map of Lyme Disease risk in the eastern US. Perhaps there has been a similar study for your part of Canada.
