СДВГ и хроническая форма болезни Лайма

Dr. Young said the correlation between ADHD and CLD "is novel in the research literature. Symptoms of CLD include persistent fatigue and unexplainable generalized pain. We conclude that many individuals who are diagnosed with CLD might have ADHD (inattentive type). We believe that many are diagnosed with CLD inaccurately and that ADHD symptoms might better explain their persistent pain and fatigue," he added.
Dr. Young emphasized that there is currently "little consensus about the validity of CLD. Most clinicians agree that there is a phenomenon of acute Lyme disease, but there is no consensus about whether it is a chronic condition. I believe that patients who have these symptoms often get the diagnosis of CLD because there is no other explanation for their chronic fatigue and pain."
"Many times," Dr. Young added, "the neuropsychiatric complications associated with CLD are the most problematic for individuals. My research indicates that individuals with CLD should be evaluated for ADHD. It is unclear if treating ADHD will help these individuals' symptoms of pain and fatigue."
