Abstract

ABSTRACT:The signs and symptoms of Lyme neuroborreliosis can overlap with non-infectious degenerative diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS). In this study, we assessed a cohort of MS patients in Atlantic Canada for serological evidence of Lyme disease (LD). No positive serology was identified using the recommended two-tiered algorithm.
