Yay*)!! You know there is another Mystery Diagnosis with Doc LF and a Lymie guy that aired out here that was just great- my husband ran and got me from the other side of the house!!!
"Sarah- you have to come-"
I ran in- just as they said "Lyme disease!"
Wildy, I think these shows will ultimately raise awareness more than any other thing that has EVER been done. I really do!!!

I will email my whole greater family and ask them to watch. Maybe they'll stop asking, "are you better yet?" ugh! They mean well.
Thanks again! Jenn

The Lyme show is part 2 of "Bittersweet" so pay no attention to the way its listed. It will be on at 7:30 pm Eastern tonight. It IS on the Discovery Health Website and listings for tonight. Yes there are 2 different shows, one is Mystery Diagnosis, the other is Mystery ER. Both are on Discovery Health, and TLC.
Tune in at 7:30 pm Eastern if you want to see it! Thank you everyone, and yes it is myself (with actors playing me in all segments) I was not on screen. Dr. Burrascano is!

Just caught the show for the third time now and had hubby watch too. Great exposure for all (and so sorry you went through so much).

Thanks all! Hopefully you can tape it next time and show it to your family and friends. It will re-air, as it has been re-airing for a year already. There are a few inaccuracies in the story. I was interviewed for 5 hours, so some of it was played up for dramatic TV sake. First, I never tried to swallow bleach, that was a joke I said I wanted to do it to kill the h.pylori in my stomach. Second, the light sensitivity while driving was in 1996, not 2 years ago. A few other things were a bit off, but nothing major. The whole story is here http://www.wildcondor.com/lyme.html
I am not super sick anymore and I have been off all Lyme treatment for 3 years and doing well. So, hopefully you guys can use the video to educate others and spread awareness. Thanks!

Would be great for those of us outside the US to have access to it!

My husband taped this to show to his family. Our brother-in-law is a doctor. Can you imagine what I have had to hear?
While we watched the show, hubby looked at me and said "this could be you". I have all the same bugs except so far, no erlichia or bart.
I'm doing extremely well also. In fact, I just hosted Thanksgiving for 25 family members and survived it in good order.
Thanks Wildcondor for sharing your story. Great to know you are well now.

Mystery ER Bittersweet TV-PG, CC
The pain in Alice's legs and back is unbearable. Doctors find nothing and suspect she's neurotic. When her son and neighbors begin to experience similar symptoms, the doctors are baffled. But the cause is not an epidemic, it's a vindictive boyfriend.
Remember: it's the second half - the first half, which is described above, is an entirely different story.
It was definitely a "must watch"!!!!
