Guest guest Posted April 3, 2004 Report Share Posted April 3, 2004 Dear Lynden, We all come together to share our common situation. We tell our stories, hopefully only good things happening considering our situation, and ask questions. There are some who answer but many who share and there is no doubt that most of us read everything. Though we dont write often, we read each and every email and have taken many notes. And, we see all the photos posted. Chin up!!

Guest guest Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 This is why I told her to ask Marc, the one who is the expert on this how she should proceed. Many people are doing the Salt/C protocol and recovering from lyme, I think no matter what I suggest you will find fault, people need to do their own research no matter what the suggestions might be, and I led her in a direction of a possible answer to her symptoms,I was merely trying to help.
