Re: does this sound like lyme? Tricia

[Guest guest]

Hi Tricia,

Now, I'm begininng to wonder if my older daughter has it as well( and myself for

that matter)

I have ocd and panic, as well as my kids.I don't know how I will afford to even

get the 3 of us tested, never mind treated. I can barely pay for my son's

treatment.

Hugs

Judy

Oh I know Judy! It's all so overwhelming! I'm so sorry. My best advice to

is to get on the very best diet you possibly can! Boost your immune system

as best you can and definitely exercise. My heart is always battling fear

when my other two children complain and I know my son has it but the LLMD

says his tests were not positive even though his CD57 was very low and he

complains of leg pain. It used to be monthly and now it is often. I have

read that boys tend to have lots of leg pain with growing and all the

jumping and stuff they do. I can't afford to get him treated so I'm just

really trying to keep him very healthy. He's almost 4 and has only had low

grade fevers 3 times in his life and never gets sick. We opted for no

vaccines even though at the time we didn't know I had Lyme. I am so very

thankful for that decision and I'm very sure it's what has kept him so

healthy.

By the way, we have used MDL (Medical Diagnostics Labs) out of NJ. I know

they are not as reliable as IGENIX but most insurances will pay for it. I

was able to get a positive on my 10yo daughter and my husband through them

when Labcorp kept giving them Negatives. It's another option!

Hang in there Judy! If you have faith pray and ask God to guide, direct and

provide.

lots of love,
