What the petition asks

I was bitten by a tick in the uk in 2011 I didn’t seek treatment as I didn’t no the risks. I was very ill over a number of years losing my hair etc. It was only when fibres started to come from my skin that I was diagnosed with Morgellons Disease a chronic form of Lymes Disease caused by the tick
I am now under treatment but can’t be cured. Yet this Disease is still not recognised as a genuine illness as over the years patients have been dismissed as being dillusional. I am under a Dermatologist at the Royal London Hospital. Who states this is not a dillusion! The Disease needs listing on the rare disease register
