It is very difficult to get diagnosed, there is testing done in the states and some in Germany I believe. There are very few doctors in Calgary who deal with it and a lot of the medication and testing is not covered by AHS. The waits to get in and see a doctor are pretty crazy (~2 years) and Lyme can present with the same symptoms as many other illnesses. For some reason the Canadian healthcare industry is not as willing to acknowledge Lyme as the US.
