I am sure you can get answers to a lot of questions you might have here . This disease is very tricky and affects all different oragans so don't think you are going crazy if you are experiancing any strange symptoms anywhere that may come and go. Just out of curiosity are you seeing a lyme specialist. What medication did he/she prescribe for you? Hope you are feeling better soon. -Val Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 17, 1999 Report Share Posted February 17, 1999 Hi .. .welcome! You know what just makes me crazy? More often than not, the docs will say, " I doubt if you have Lyme Disease. " Why do they doubt this? Are WE the only ones who are aware of the staggering numbers of Lyme patients? Are the docs blind to this? Geeeezzz!!! Sorry, just had to vent a little. Glad you got a diagnosis and welcome to the club. I would prefer to NOT belong to this particular club but as long as I have to, it's nice to know that there are good people to talk to with. Have a good day!!

I am taking Doxie for 21 days. I may need the name of a LLMD here in Pittsburgh, PA. if anyone knows of one please let me know.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 1999 Report Share Posted February 18, 1999 If You have had Lyme for more than a year you definatley need to see a specialist and you absolutly, definately no doubt about it need much more than twenty one days of antibiotics. I will try to look up a Dr. in PA for you and I am sure others on this list will too. Feel better -Val Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 21, 1999 Report Share Posted February 21, 1999 God, , what a way to find out you had this lovely disease! I have to tell you, though, I am really happy for you that you read my saga and that your doctor was thorough!!!!! You spared yourself a life of HELL!!!! I have been reading your posts on the LymeAid...I just got back from Florida about an hour ago and am trying to catch up. The GOOD news is- not everyone gets a HORRIBLE case of Lyme. As far as the doctors can figure, I have had it since 1989 and until the vaccine it was tolerable. I also had vague symptoms but nothing I couldn't live with. If you found out about it by " accident " and are getting it treated, you might not become one of the hordes of people who wind up completely debilitated from it. I hope that you don't!!!!! Be well!

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2002 Report Share Posted March 3, 2002 Hi Carmen, And welcome to the list. Like you, I'm not from America, I'm from the UK but everyone's welcome here. I'm responding to your email because my 25 years old ASD daughter, Zoe, is chelating. I think she might be the eldest chelating person with ASD on this list although there are a few other 'veterans' ! You mention the MMR connection with your daughter, in fact, Zoe, because of her age never had this vaccination and it is most probable that her autism is due to toxicity from maternal amalgam fillings in utero and thimerasol 'preservative' in the DPT. If you want to look at some of the muck they put into vaccines, and don't forget, when you read thimerosal, read mercury, try the following: http://www.whale.to/vaccines/ingredients1.html Best wishes, Terry Fitton, UK. --------------------------------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
