>Even the other treatment outlined in this blog post (disulfuram) has an open study that is still looking for volunteers. That tells you a little bit about the level of need (modest, but not zero) and the disinterest of the patient community in advancing science (you can draw your own conclusions here).

This shows a lack of empathy. Patients are either too sick to travel or lack the money. And how would they hear about this trial when so many doctors, like you, deny the severity of the problem? But the main reason is that patients don't need the trial, Lyme communities are full of people taking disulfiram on their own and finally recovering.
