A friend of mine's son was just diagnosed with this disease and I've never heard of it before. I still need to research it but anyone who knows ANYTHING about it, please do respond!

Thanks, in advance, my friends!

Thanks, Stacy!

The more I read about it, the LESS I think it has anything to do with Lyme but the name was SO odd and my friend's little boy is struggling.

Anyway, hope you and your family are doing well!

Best,

Clarissa,

So sorry your friends little boy is struggling [Frown]

We are doing better these days.
My oldest is due to come off all abx
this summer per both LLMD's.

My younger one does not have Lyme and Co.
according to all the tests (we ran 2 x's)
and the 2 times Dr. J. has seen and examined him.

I am still on abx tx but doing much better.

Sorry to high jack the thread.

Hope you and your mom are doing well too!!!

Take Care,
Stacy
