ya, kinda hard to ignore the little tail fragments. Now what? No LLMD's in AZ that take Medicare.
Thinking of going to MN for treatment, but I am too damn sick to contemplate it, for real.
Really dunno where to start - have been on doxy for a year on and off. This time LL Nurse told me to try doxy at half my usual dose to try for a longer period of time... now I am really sick.
argh
cheers and thx,
*Bit*
