Though many feel we are fortunate here in Canada to have a "free" medical system, it has MANY down sides. We have LONG waiting lists, especially to see neurologists, which often leads to mis-management of head injuries. I feel that if I saw a good doctor within the first week of my concussion I would have had a concussion that resolved uneventfully. Instead, I continued to try and "train" through it and ended up with severe post-concussion syndrome.

Research on things like Lyme Disease IS minimal. Much of treatment consists of "try this drug" instead of looking at lifestyle changes.

OH CANADA. Great Country, poor medical system.
