i sent them my reply just now...

Kristi,
Outstanding news clip you did on Jill and Tammy's life with chronic lyme disease!

I've had chronic lyme 39 years this Christmas! The tick that got me was off my folk's LIVE CHRISTMAS tree!!

It was sub-zero Iowa weather, and my roommates and I didn't have pets nor could we garden in weather like that. Thru the use of my journal started at 13, I was able to track back when I got sick and eliminate other things!

I was misdiagnosed by 40-50 drs. for 34.5 YEARS! Each dr. I believed his diagnosis.

I've had to educate myself using reputable internet sites; such as:

www.lymediseaseassociation.org and others

Please watch the UNDER OUR SKIN, 08 lyme documentary uncovering all the stuff that the infectious disease society, IDSA, is HIDING!

http://www.underourskin.com/watch.html

Local lyme support groups have been sponsoring this and having it aired at their public library auditoriums, etc. nationwide!

I look forward to seeing part 2 as soon as I can find the link SOMEWHERE! I can't find it presently.

Again, thanks for the great coverage, and continue bringing this out in the open vs. shoving it under the rug like congress has done in 10.5 years our lyme bill has been there STUCK and has NOT BEEN PLACED ON AGENDA TO DISCUSS!

I am from South Florida and about died in South Florida.

I tried for 3 years there to find what was wrong with me and had to move to NC to finally find it!

A great news report again. You'd have to think with all of these coming out that this is finally going to start being taken seriously.

I believe it is Dr. J in "Under Our Skin" that says "it's the next tsunami".

Excellent news segment. Thank you for sharing.

kristi krueger reporter wrote me back!!

Thank you for your email and for sharing your story.....

There is a news service, TV News Clips...at 800-799-8881...where copies of our reports can be purchased. Not all of our reports make it to our website.

I will continue to follow stories like Tammy's and Jill's and I have seen "Under Our Skin", which I talked about in part 2.

Best wishes to you and others who suffer from this too often misdiagnosed disease.

Kristi

I was bitten in south FL in 1990 and have not been able to live without antibiotics ever since.
