If you can't get treatment and you can't get diagnosed, there's a reason for it. The "research" and guidelines that have governed Lyme treatment are truly screwed up.
If you don't do your part to help make Under Our Skin a success, then you will have no right later on to complain about the lack of doctors and treatment options.
Go to the screenings!
If you can't go, buy tickets online.
Send your friends to the movies.
Talk about the movie on your other forums, twitter, facebook, etc.
One stop shopping below for tickets in San Diego that you can order online:

It would also help if everyone contacted their U.S. House Representatives regarding new legislation: Bill is HR 1179.
HR 1179 is called The Lyme and Tick-Borne Diseases Prevention, Education, and Research Act of 2009.
It is very easy to email your Representative. Just go to the website below, click on your state, scroll down, and if your reps name is not in green, then they have not signed on to support -- then just click email next to their name asking them to support HR 1179.
One of the goals of this legislation is to create more acurate blood tests so people are not misdiagnosed and suffer needlessly. If people would contact their representatives this would also be a great help. 6 out of 11 in my state have signed on to support. Please, please consider contacting your Representative.
