“Doctors can destroy patients by telling them that a true, physical disease is all in the head,” says psychiatrist Virginia Sherr of Holland, Pennsylvania…In the Lyme hot zone of Bucks County, she sees a new case of Lyme encephalopathy every week. “I am a psychiatrist. These are not people who are referred to me because they have Lyme disease – they are sent because they have panic attacks, hallucinations, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and depression. They are in agony – not only neuropsychiatric pain, but physical pain as well. They have never been hypochondriacal in their lives, but that is how they are labeled. They are encephalopathic, but they have been told they are not by physicians who wouldn’t know a case of encephalopathy if they fell over it. They are physically sick, but are blamed by doctors who say: ‘You belong to a cult if you think you have Lyme,’ or ‘You look okay to me.’”
