Vaccines against Lyme Disease: What Happened and What Lessons Can We Learn?
http://www.nytimes.com/1990/08/17/us/lyme-disease-is-now-linked-to-stroke-in-20-year-old-gi.html
Very old data from 1990.
Two neurologists have reported that a 20-year-old
man suffered a stroke as a result of meningitis brought on by Lyme
disease. Eleven similar cases have been documented in Europe, they say.
In a report published yesterday in Stroke, a journal
of the American Heart Association, the two neurologists at the Walter
Reed Army Medical Center in Washington recommend that victims of
inexplicable strokes be tested for Lyme disease.
''This is not the first time stroke has been linked
to Lyme disease,'' said Dr. Eugene F. May, who, with Dr. Bahman Jabbari,
wrote the report. ''But it is not a widely known syndrome.''
