Lyme disease affects thousands of people in the
world. The main problem with Lyme disease is that
doctors find it difficult to diagnose and
therefore patient doesnt gets proper Lyme
disease treatment on time. Here is a list of 5
celebs who have suffered from Lyme
disease.   Youll be a bit surprised to know that
among thousands of people who suffer from Lyme
disease there are some well known faces as well.
Here are some the most easily recognised
celebrities who suffered from Lyme disease. Be
prepared to get shocked because doctors simply
failed in their first attempts to diagnose and
provide Lyme disease treatment to these stars.

Samantha Stosur   Theres hard to find an Aussie
who doesnt know Samantha Stosur (Yes, the tennis
player!). She has won U.S. Open in singles,
French and U.S. Open in doubles, Wimbledon and
Australian Open in mixed doubles. Lyme disease
forced Stosur to withdraw from all types of
competitive tennis championships in 2007.
Initially, doctors failed to diagnose her
properly and it was later revealed that shes
suffering from Lyme disease. Eventually, proper
Lyme disease treatment was provided to Stosur.

Yolanda Foster   Television personality, model,
and interior designer Yolanda Foster has suffered
from chronic Lyme disease since 2012. To make the
matter worse, she revealed in January 2015 that
due to chronic Lyme disease, she has simply lost
the ability to read, write, or even watch TV.
She further revealed that shes unable to process
information or any stimulation. Shes now getting
Lyme disease treatment in Germany. (For those who
dont know her, shes mother of Gigi Hadid).

Avril Lavigne Yes! We know its hard to
believe, but in 2015 Avril Lavigne revealed that
she has been diagnosed for Lyme disease. She has
been a phenomenal singer all her life and had
been the youngest female singer who reached
number 1 in the UK.  
Even Avril Lavigne had to face the problem of bad
diagnosis. She changed doctors frequently as none
were able to diagnose her properly and provide
treatment for her constantly deteriorating health
condition. Then, she visited a Lyme disease
specialist who told her that shes suffering from
Lyme disease. It was recently reported that shes
undergoing Lyme disease treatment and recovering
positively.

Jamie-Lynn Sigler   It wont be hard for the
fans of HBO series The Sopranos to recognise
Jamie-Lynn Sigler (played the role of Meadow
Soprano). Wasnt expecting her on this list?
Youll be shocked to know that in year 2000 while
filming in New Jersey, she got paralysed from the
waist down for a few days because of Lyme
disease. She recovered after getting proper Lyme
disease treatment.

Kathleen Hanna
We had to write about her because she has fought
with chronic Lyme disease for years. In an
interview, Kathleen Hanna said that for 6 years
she was suffering with Lyme disease before it was
diagnosed. In 2014, her health got bad and she
had to cancel her events to get proper Lyme
disease treatment.
