That's weird. It was on a Lyme site and the byline mentioned Lyme. I didn't even notice it was not in the article!

That was my thought too. I had read the article (saw it somewhere else) and seeing the headline immediately thought "Lyme" yet she had something else?

I guess it just goes to show how inaccurate testing is, how immovable doctors are once they "make" a dx, and how unwilling many patients are to get a 2nd opinion - because the first doctor is usually "highly respected".

I have a good time wherever I go!
