PEMF Therapy to Treat Lingering Symptoms of Lyme Disease After Treatment With Antibiotics
Stopped: It was discovered during the study that Lyme Disease is a bio warfare weapon made in USA. (See "Bitten" by Kris Newby.) The second reason for stopping the study is lack of participant responses, likely due to lack of payment for completing surveys.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Diagnosis from GP confirming Lyme disease and/or
* Blood test confirming Lyme disease and/or
* Symptoms that correlate to Lyme disease without diagnosis from GP. This is called "self diagnosis" and because 80% of the trial is focused on treating symptoms and not the spirochetes, bacteria or small cysts of Lyme disease, the results are expected to be largely the same
Exclusion Criteria:
* Persons currently undergoing antibiotic treatment for Lyme or other conditions
* Persons who were prescribed antibiotics but did not or could not take them
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
