This is VERY important... please share!

Too many people are thinking they are HIV positive and it could be Babesiosis instead.

I see this quite often, but never had proof to back up my suspicions. I have watched people taking gobs of HIV meds that don't work to make them better. It is so sad.

Now we have proof this "accident" can happen. Please get the word out there to help as many people as we can.

Thank you!

Awesome job w/ finding this one, Tincup! Because of your find, I’ve already forwarded it on to other on-line Lyme Groups as well as LLMD’s.

Together...we will see that our truths (THE collective big truth), our hurts and pains, and our stories are finally revealed! Light over darkness...ALWAYS!

Thank you again.

Take good care,
Told you...
