This is the first Chat site i have ever logged into and by reading the information the reason i did was to become part of this organization of people fighting everyday as i am to beat lyme disease. I am lucky it has only been 7 months for me but that is 7 months to long. I am here to listen talk take advise or give any i might have. Just bare with me i have no idea what i am doing. Of course it is 12:00 midnight part of the lymes very hard to sleep at anytime.

Welcome to the board! Read away and ask questions when you need. We are all here to offer our advice and support.
Just remember that we are not doctors (most of us) and cannot give medical advice. We share our experiences so other patients can learn from them.

Thanks guys for responding. I do know Dr. J is very expensive maybe more than what i thought looking at some of the messages. If there was a garantee and i could get back to my life with my boys and school i would pay any amount but i know there are no garantees i have definatly learned that.

When you learn your way around, you'll see that general stuff goes here on this forum, and fun off topic stuff goes in Off Topic.
Medical in Medical ...
Don't ignore the Seeking a Doctor forum, because you may be able to help someone there with info on drs in your area.
