![]() A ground-breaking research study on Lyme and Pregnancy has launched, led by Canadian Principal Investigator Dr. Elizabeth Darling and team from the McMaster University Midwifery Research Centre. LymeHope is honoured to partner and collaborate in this important endeavour, facilitating the 'birth' of a new era of research focused on assessing perinatal (mother-to-baby) transmission of Lyme disease - the first North American research into this alternate mode of transmission in 25 years! This research leads with principles of patient engagement - which seeks, values and welcomes the perspective and priorities of people with lived experience. For decades, mothers, healthcare providers and advocacy groups have been expressing concern regarding maternal-fetal transmission of Lyme disease and voicing concerns about the short and long-term health impact of this alternate mode of transmission on babies and children. This research re-opens the door to this issue and 'gives voice' to those who have been impacted. The online survey and opportunity to participate in online focus groups will be open to anyone living in Canada, the Unites States, or globally. This project will lay the groundwork for further research on perinatal transmission of Lyme disease. In addition to recruiting people who have Lyme Disease, the study needs people who DO NOT HAVE LYME but have at any time been pregnant to participate in a survey. If you have ever been pregnant, completing the survey will help contribute to needed research about Lyme Disease and Pregnancy. The survey is available in both English and French. How can I participate in this research?

My name is Hailey Garcia and I am from New Jersey. My herpes virus turned to war after 2 years of living with it. I have tried different medical procedures to cure my herpes but to no avail. Most people think herpes is only a minor skin irritation of which herpes has long term effects on health and passes through the bloodstream and can be easily contracted through sexual intercourse. I knew I had herpes from the first day I started feeling itchy in my pubic area and the pain was very unbearable. I couldn't stand it anymore. After 2 years of trying other means to get rid of it, I had to contact Doctor Odunga to help me with a permanent cure. I saw his email and whats-app number from a testimony I read online from a lady who was also helped by him in curing infertility problems, I had faith and contacted him. He assured me of his work and I ordered his herbal medicine. Within 5 days, I didn't feel any pain anymore and within 2 weeks, my skin was all cleared and smooth. I am very grateful to you sir and I write this testimony as others have done to bring those having faith to you sir. If you have herpes or other similar disease and you want it cured, kindly contact Doctor Odunga, Whats-App (wa.me/+2348167159012) OR Email [email protected]
