Honestly, WITHOUT all of you, and the other Lyme Organaizations, I'd have gone into a coma and died of kidney failure, as NONE of my regular docs were willing to do anything but crisis care and then palliative care (what is done in a hospice-symptom relief only for cases where there is no known cure for an ailment.
When I left the hospital, ONLY my LLMD was willing to give me abx beyond the crisis, and in an attempt to "take a break" due to yeast (BIG MISTAKE), I got dangerously ill with *another* kidney infection. Again, ONLY my LLMD was willing to give abx to pull me out of the infection.
Thank God for ILADS, CALDA and LYME NET.
You all LED me to HIM and HE's SAVING me! THANK YOU * THANK YOU * THANK YOU!!!
I made this video to show the SEVEN FACTS that could have saved me...

Thank you! SO MANY don't have/take the time to read, so I'm trying to give them a quick peek into what it took me so long to learn from so many sources.
Thank you so much for your help. Let's stop the spread if we can, and lead others to treatment when it's too late for prevention. We all know that only our knowledge has saved us, and the others who led us to it, have collectively saved our lives.

Wow! Thank you so much. You have no idea just how many this may reach. And it is hard to reach people. Video is well-done, though. Scary, but Lyme is scary. After 15 years, I'm damn scared of it. We knew I had been bit. I had the bull's-eye rash. Doctors misdiagnosed for 8 long years. Someone may avoid this because of your work on this video. Thank you again.

Sort of....WE're a bit fragmented, but add me as Ticked Literally, and it'll link you into a lot of wonderful and helpful Lymies, some with pages.
I SO WISH we could conglomerate! God help them if we moved as ONE!
