We have been giving these Pfizer pamphlets out since 2001 when they first came out. They were printed in 2000 and look exactly like the Bowen tests for HME and babs. That is what you get in pictures from Bowen if you have those coinfections which I did.

Great minds think alike! I too saw all the punctuation marks and thought "Sarah!".
Who, of course, was the reason I got into the LLMD in S.F. before he accumulated 400+ patients on his waiting list.
If this is you Sarah, how is your daughter doing? Julie

Yup, it's Sarah*)!! Update: life is wonderful and every day I know I owe that to 9 months of IV Rocephin*)!!! My older daughter Evan is 8 now and has been off antibiotics and Mepron for over 2 years. She is totally symptom-free and doing great, rides horses, is in Brownies, piano, voice lessons, etc*)! Got married to a lovely man named Ed who is just the BEST*)!! He has diabetes so he understands not being perfect physicially. We just had a lovely little baby named Isadora Clementine who has a shock of blonde hair and looks exactly like him. She is great, very responsive & interactive. I am still on antibiotics because when I overdo things I get a slight ache in my finger joints or my left knee and I'll be damned if I get really sick again! I am staying on abx until I get 100%!!!! I am 99.99999% now! I go months without flares. I NEVER EVER thought I would recover to this extent. NEVER. I was in SO much pain and had so many systemic problems. I am so thankful.
Around here things have gotten better. We have still been doing the group although I wasn't posting it for a while. I am writing an article for a local magazine because one of the editors has Lyme! When I gave birth all the nurses in the hospital were aware of Lyme because 2 nurses have it and they were all asking me questions re treatment which was very encouraging. Weird though. A doctor actually brought it up in the delviery room because he had gone through my chart and the doctors spoke about it right before my daughter was born. A bit surreal, my mind was on her*)*!)!!!
Good to see y'all, missed you folks, will be back as I can, Fondness & Best wishes, Sarah

Good for you Sarah. We all met at the Gettysburg Lyme Jam and convention in 2002, I think.
do not know if you remember, Jim that wore his hunting hat all the time. He died last year from his lyme. He was only 55. it was so sad. He had given a testimony for the camera then.
Lovette's son is in his second year of college and is doing well. He was so very sick with babs and lyme and we thought he would never get well or remember things. He now sings at our lyme Jam.

Thanks for the info. I just ordered mine. Everyone around here is so ignorant of lyme so maybe this will help educate a few. Everyone around here thinks it's no big deal.(if they only knew)
