Kay,

These DR's at Vanderbilt must be pathology as the only way Vanderbilt comes

up with tick born illness is post mortuum my daughter went through hell

through their Infectious disease Dept., trying to get help and ended up in

MO. by the time we got her a Dr. it had spread much more. It would be great

if the DR's from the infectious disease Dept. could read this. I have a

feeling these DR's were post mortuum Pathologist. Great at finding it when

it's to late to help the patient. Don't mind me. I'm a little bitter. when my

daughter tried to get help in Tennessee they told her she must have picked up

the disease in Michigan while visiting us, as Tennessee doesn't have Lyme

disease. She pulled the tick off herself in her yard in Mid. Tennessee. How

interesting of them to say you picked it up in Michigan, there are lots of

cases up there. someone should tell Lansing in Michigan they say we don't

have a Lyme problem. My granddaughter needs to be checked now and that means

hear we go again trying to find a Dr. to check her. Thanks for letting me

vent. Carol in MI
