Missed SBS INSIGHT’s show looking at how tick bites can affect our health? Catch up online now or with today’s repeat at 3:30PM on SBS. We heard from: Patients - 'I guess with so many different symptoms they would just sort of come to the conclusion that she was making it up or that I was making it up, or we were both making it up….’ (Chanel & Cate Moloney) Infectious Diseases Specialist - ‘If I prescribe an unapproved therapy… the licensing authorities will virtually pull my licence’. (Prof. Miles Beaman) Lyme-literate Medical Practitioner - 'What we need to do as health professionals is help the people that come and see us who say ‘I’m sick can you help me?’ but make sure we use all of our skills and all of our experience to help the patient get better, that's the most important thing.’ (Dr Gull Herzberg) We would love to hear your thoughts on this episode!
