little dreamer (Tami)
The Sky King (Bryan)
Fire Fox (Mark)
Trout
Ernie
Misty
The ski instructor from Vail CO
Ron (Semper Fi)
Jim

Thats all I can think of at the moment, I'm sure I left out a few.

Thanks a bunch!

[kiss] MADDOG, so good to see you again! I have many more to add now that I have had time to think and you know most of them I am sure. You were one of the first I saw in my early days.

BettyG [Big Grin] Glad to meet you! * of 2004, you have now been here awhile too. I'm still looking for people from 2002 that helped to keep me alive (as many of you know how I feel)in my darkest hours. You go girl, it can and will get better.

I am now adding more to the list, please help me find them.

Houston Lyme Pie

I can not remember this one or her log on for anything....
I met her in El Paso TX where I lived, AFTER I came back from my first ICHT treatment in Italy, went to lunch with her and took my assistant with us... she works at the crimal courts building in El Paso TX.

Jill....where are you?

blackmon????
Lymabean?????
rosesisland?
jwagner???
carol??
lightfoot????
sandiB????
hummingbird?????
lymiegirl????
tincup????
wildcondor????
cootiegirl?????
cave76????
txlymemom??????
caat?????
petra?????

This one I would really like to thank ( for her trying to help me with her doctor and what she believed in, she worked for Exxon) and she may not want to talk to me because she did not support my out of the box treatment but she did try to convience me whole heartly to go with her doctor, was willing to give up her next appointment for me (and asked her doctor to take me) to go to him in Houston TX and begged me up until the last week that I left to get my passport to go to Italy. I knew my eyesight was just around the corner of being gone for good. I talked with her several times a week until the last moment that I just could not wait any longer. I owe her for giving me her heart and wanting to help...and for believing that what I was about to do would hurt me if not kill me, she truely begged me not to do it and wanted to help in her way. She was not liked by several for her outspoken ways, but she truely cared and I would like to let her know how much I appreciated her help then and how I still appreciate her kindness today.

I hope to remember more names tomorrow.

About half of the folks in your list still lurk around here.

I wasnt around much in 2001--I was lucky and got better pretty quickly. But I am back for more than a year now--not getting better at all.

[shake]

What brings you back?

Hi Kathy,
I've been here two years, but I'm not sure if I qualify as an old timer.

Heaven knows, I feel old.

I remember seeing your posts.

I haven't seen many on your lists. I'm hopeful they got their lives back and moved on.

Kathy,

Have you checked out the directory?

Several of the names you listed are there.

Try a search on the directory page -- type in the person's lymenet name in the box that says Displayed Name and then click on Search Members.

To send a private message click on the word More when the person's screen comes up -- the icon is the envelope with 2 people shaking hands. Some people opt out of this feature but it will tell you if the message does not go thru.

You might also try posting on the other forum -- http://www.lymenews.com

Good luck finding your friends.

Sorry to hijack this thread but I am wanting to go to that site mentioned above. Marks,,,"Salt and C site" on Yahoo Lymestrategies.

I tried finding it over there but to NO avail. I was one of those on the teleconference last Sunday, very interesting!!Long but interesting.

Need some more info. and support because I am still --just don--

I pop in every now and again and read some posts...keep up as best I can. I've been in remission for over a year now and feel almost 80 percent and that is so much better than before.

I've been busy doing all those things I've neglected during all those years in bed.

I may sell my Rife, the B3-2000 if someone wants to buy it. I have to check with my husband.

So far so good, though. I feeling great just wish the depression left with me would improve. I'm on my 4th combination and still feel depressed. I guess a long illness will do it for you. Best to you and hope more get in touch.

I'm not on the list, but I guess I might qualify for old-timer status by now.

Nice to see you again anyway! [Smile]

WOW, you guy's/gal's are great! So I didn't get to find all the old timers (will still look) thanks to all for posting.

Everyone here still jumps right in to help.

I am doing great, I just have some extra time on my hands now that I am no longer working. Not due to Lyme though. I was in a corporate lay-off. [Mad]

So, now here I sit. Guess I can't complain, I have my life. [Big Grin]

So much has changed here, the web page...all the cute smiley faces you can now click on! They are soooooo cute.

The lady I'am looking for at Exxon was Norin. Last I knew she had to go out on an expedition.

Lymetoo, thanks for posting! If you have the email address's you can give me that would be great! How are you?


rosesisland2000, THATS SUPER! What finally got you better the rife?

dontlikeliver, thanks for posting. I always loved your losting name. Makes me laugh, my daughter hated liver too.


ALL OF YOU [kiss] Thank you for posting.

For those that remember I had the horrible rash that covered 90% of my body. That is about all that I have left other than a few annoying probelms that will probably linger forever.

Other than that my mind is clear, I love it.....
all is good.

Thanks to all! Kat

Hey Kathy,

I wasn't on your list, and don't come around here much anymore either, but I first came on here about the time you were planning your trip to Italy in 2002...and I recognize a lot of the names you posted, and some of those that have replied...

I'm glad Rosesisland is doing better, and you too! I wish we had more success stories...

I have been symptom free for about 3 years now...

The thing I remember most when I first suspected Lyme was that I couldn't find anybody who got better and moved on with their life...it was a very lonely and depressing place to be...I thought my life was over...we all need to come back every once in awhile to get the point across that there is life after Lyme...when I heard that line "Those that get better move on with their lives and don't post anymore" I thought it was a fairytale...I didn't believe it...I searched like a madman for "the answer" like I was racing the clock and up against the whole world, as I know you did...I couldn't find even one person who had beaten this thing...I thought I was going to die...somewhere in that whole mess I turned the corner and found a way.

The last year I've rediscovered some of the old dreams I had before Lyme, and a few months ago I bought a few acres in the woods...this summer I'm building my own house, and I have the energy to do it!

Have been reading on the site since 2001, starting posting sometime during 2002. I remember researching the Italian Clinic and a Swiss facility when I first came here.

Anyway, what was the point?

Ohhhh, I may have Norin's number somewhere! We talked on the phone a few times. Just need to figure out where it could be!

I'm sure I have KJ's number and e-mail. She helped me a lot when I first started seeing my LLMD in Houston. Actually found my doc through her!

Let me know if you need them.....

It's good to see that many of you are doing SO much better and continue to help others!

General question. Is there anybody out there being diagnosed to have both, Lyme and MS? If so, where do you find neurologists that know about lyme?
 
Posted by Kathy Boss (Member # 3062) on :
 
Hooray for you Matt!

This is awesome news and so good to hear that you made it. Stories like this just make you want to jumb up and down for that made it thru that hell.

You describe it so perfectly, lonely, scared, racing against the clock, the feeling always of dying......Man I look back on those days in horror.

How did you beat it? And, you are building your house!!!!!!!!!!!!! AWESOME.

Stella, I hope you are doing better. If you have Norins email that would be great I just want to thank her for really caring and trying to help me.

Lymemomtooo, I have tried to reply to your private message but I get a message that your inbox is full.

Hi Kat...I think one of the lymies you were looking for was Katydid aka Kay W from El Paso..
unfortunately her email addy is on my old crashed computer but I bet somebody else here has it.

I can't help you with norin...I always felt like I was being scolded when I got on the same thread with her so I avoided her.

Glad you're still doing OK

Hi Kathy,

Sorry, I do not have any of the email addresses on your list either.

But, it is good to see the old names.

I think I signed on with lymenet in Feb. 2003, but I have not been around for awhile.

Still battling the good, bad and ugly of lyme disease.
