Can anyone suggest some good articles about Lyme. Not being from Ilads.

I want to send info in for my disability.

I sent the Lyme result from Western blot, etc

They denied me ofcourse and said I had "possible lyme disease".

I need good info and I am too brain fogged to continue looking everywhere.

I thought some of you might know something.

Thanks a lot

Hi,

Under general topic forum there is
a lot of help on Dissability.
I think it is the 4th line from the top.

Hope it helps,

Stacy

Also.. Shaz has a Lymebrary... and it may be helpful.

I am not able to navigate it myself- too dumb- but you probably can.

It should be on a sticky post at the top of this forum.

Good luck!

Been advised that the most important part of a disability appltn is to have the md write up the diagnosis, tests backing up the diagnosis, and specific restrictions, limitations, and symptoms as to why you can't work. If this is Social Security, may want to hire a lawyer. They don't get paid unless you are successful and there is a cap on their fees.
