May is Lyme Disease Awareness Month. With cases up 45% in just a few years, and now approaching 500K annually in 2022, it is more important than ever to educate your patients about Lyme. If your patients have been exposed to ticks, or are experiencing any of the common symptoms of Lyme disease, consider having them tested with IGeneX, the leader in tick-borne disease testing.

TIP #1 SAVE THE TICK
If possible, save the tick, dead or alive, in a plastic bag or tube. The tick can be tested at a lab for infections from a variety of pathogens. This can be easier than getting testing for yourself.
