Just a nice note.. well deserved to our friends up "noth" in Canada.
I was at a program the other night.. in Maryland. The speaker... a new and wonderful LLMD (nice lady making a grand effort which we need SO much here)... was presenting a program for the first time on Lyme disease. There were about 70 plus people in the audience which is a BIG deal round here.
She did an excellent job by the way.
She noted, at least three times in the program that she was able to find good information about Lyme and tick borne diseases at the Canadian Lyme site.
I was impressed that a doctor would mention this and suggest it to others.

ticup, believe me its all Bull**** here in Canada.. We all try to be heard and there are great people who fight for this but 98% of docs are instructed to say that lyme only exists in the states and Canadians don' t have it!! The testing here sucks just like everything. I don't know very many people who actaully had positive results under the f*cking Canadian testin at all!unless the infection was caught early, but no chronics!! We need to SHOUT AND GO PUBLIC, more public... someone wrote for some magazine that there are 50 cases of lyme in Canada over the past few years.This is a lie and it infuriates me to the point that I can't control myself. The government just isn't gettin it... The testing is Scadalous!!!!!!! I want to call them and say " you mother f*cking assholes, you don't approve my ignex results, I meet all the criteria for the CDC, etc.. And say I'll donate my blood on a daily basis if you claim I'm healthy. Or if I'm so damn healthy, why don't I just inject a bit of my blood in you? Nothing will happen if we have the same blood type and I'm healthy right? Evryone's sleppin here , so many are affected and will NEVER know. i'm going on the news with this the minute I get back on my feet. and I will make the Cnadian government **** itself even more thatn its already ****ted itself. No props to Canada. When I open my mouth next year, there won't be an end to it. Lynn

Yes, I think the Canadian Lyme group website is wonderful. I linked our website to it last year. They have all the latest news and well done.

May I add I have found the Canadian site to be especially informative and up to date.
Some doctors (counted on one hand) use Igenex as a dignostic tool while all others feel our own federal/provincial tests are just fine, and give a blank stare when you give them evidence of just how poor the two-step test method is.
Bowen is not given much credit by doctors here.
