Hi ya'll....I probaley put this under the wrong forum, but I figure this one gets read the most.

Anyhow, Dr Oz (who is always on Oprah) apparently watched Under Our Skin and interviewed Andy Abrahams Wilson, the filmmaker.

Dr Oz is going to discuss this on his radio show. I don't know when, but I do know there is a link somewhere, maybe on Oprah's website, and Dr Oz wants to hear stories from people with Lyme.

So find it and send it. I am, as soon as I can get this computer to work half descent, and find it!

Just wanted to let everyone know. LOTS of people watch Oprah, maybe this will help us all, at some point. Maybe we can get the ball rolling on the Oprah show. Can't believe I'm saying that, but that's how America seems to work. You have to be a celebrity to get anything done!

Whoever finds the correct link, please pass it along.

JUST RELEASED FROM ON THE MARC MEDIA:

Under Our Skin will be featured on Dr. Oz's radio show on Oprah and Friends XM Radio November 26. It airs 3 times during that day at 1 a.m. 7 a.m. and 6 p.m.

You can listen to it even if you don't have Satellite Radio -- see below.

Plus Dr. Oz said "he wants to hear from people who are suffering with Lyme." He gives out an email address on the radio show so we want to encourage everyone to write to him.

Dr. Mehmet Oz said "his entire family couldn't stop watching Under Our Skin". Dr. Oz interviewed filmmaker Andy Abrahams Wilson along with medical reporter Kathy Fowler for nearly an hour about the complications and controversies of Lyme disease.

It's a very big deal for the Lyme community that Dr. Oz featured this topic on his show because he is well respected and has a lot of influence in the medical community as well as the general public.

Dr. Mehmet Oz is professor and vice chairman of surgery at Columbia University in New York City, director of the Cardiovascular Institute and founder and director for the Complementary Medicine Program at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital.

He is a regular contributor to The Oprah Winfrey Show and Oprah.com. You can listen to the show if you don't have Satellite Radio...

These are the instructions we received from Oz's producer.

You can sign up online for free the day that your interview airs.

I sent 'em my story!

Sadly, one sister has been jealous of me & hubby for 30+ years - in Sept she said "You are not sick!"

Whew - being eaten from inside out - but outside does not yet show the tortures inside.

Herx or really bad day today? Sigh...
