This is one of our favorite shows and last night it was revealed that one of the two brothers (Rick and Marty Lagina), Rick, contracted Lyme Disease and was undergoing treatment.

The segment showed that he had a bull's eye rash but the narrator failed to indicate that it is not a leading indicator (using words like "usually indicative").

They also discussed the treatment of 30 days of antibiotics to "cure" the disease ( posted on their Facebook page and corrected them. Some of you might do the same).

At least it is getting more word out and perhaps people will do a little more research.

this was a game changer in me with 7 yrs or more being knee deep in all Lyme Voo doo, I watch the segment and cried.. i always had a shadow of a doubt >> Was this really Lyme .. ?? after watching Rick as he stumble his way from the computer, lost in thought and changed his gait,, the way he generally moves and reacts.. i was in awe of that was me.. i am now 100% sure I have and had it.. no matter what the medical world has said about making up this nightmare... worried when he said he had 4 days of it before going to ER,,, and doxy.. proud that a simple clinic realized it.. wonder what the doctors name is.. hooray ! hopefully his immune system will beat it at the butt, keep an ear to your heart !
