WELCOME To LYMENET But I guess your not new but welcome back lotsa stuff here for ya I gave it to my wife too!


Here's more goodys! A typical response to newcomers.

Hi and WELCOME! Get a LLMD or at least Dr that is willing to learn about lyme. "Lyme literacy" means, first and
foremost, knowing how to diagnose the disease accurately. Borrelia Burgdorferi is a clinical diagnosis, based on symptoms and on your response to treatment. Good Luck, bumpy road ahead.

Don't allow this to cripple you and your wife! It will destroy your lives little by little.

I cannot fathom why you've decided just to ignore the Lyme. Even if not for you, for the love of your life.
