Spending Comparison
Lyme Treatment can be extremely expensive costing thousands of dollars in out of pocket expences. Few doctors actually treat for Lyme disease and a lot of the doctors who do, do not take insurance. Fees can average between $300 to $800 for the first doctor's visit alone.
Why does treating Lyme disease cost so much? Let's use my story as an example. In one year (2011), I spent nearly $8,000 on prescription medications and $3,000 on additional supplements alone. By becoming my own advocate and using Lyme Wellness DIY, I was able to cut my supplement spending in half and lower my prescription drug cost to about $500 a year. See the graph below. Add in doctor visits and lab costs and the numbers are stagering. Lyme is sometimes called a disease for the wealthy however you can get well no matter what your budget! Believe it or not some things that are extremely helpful are absolutely free.
