This has been a troubling issue for years and Im trying to get any help that i could.<br /><br />thanks so much!<br />heatherUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04646424783097476300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694894153899281485.post-50179865734314329962009-10-31T16:11:31.707-07:002009-10-31T16:11:31.707-07:00Because she is blessed, that's why! Her strain...Because she is blessed, that's why! Her strain may have something to do with it as well. But the bottom line is, she IS sick. She's just not dysfunctional at this point and has learned to cope. <br /><br />I had Lyme 17 years before being diagnosed ... was dysfunctional 4 years prior to diagnosis. If you had told me I had Lyme 10 years into the infection, my jaw would've surely dropped. But, boy oh boy would I be so grateful at this point!<br /><br />She is very blessed indeed! Here's hoping for a "quick and speedy" recovery as "Lyme time!"Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04540253405630085694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694894153899281485.post-89518214830607535792009-10-31T11:09:25.913-07:002009-10-31T11:09:25.913-07:00The data from this patient suggests that WB is not...The data from this patient suggests that WB is not useful in diagnosing Lyme disease.

The only thing that's certain is that Lyme never goes away on its own.glytzhkofhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04209210441276934575noreply@blogger.com
