  • there are excellent doctor's out there.

    The best don't advertise.

    Spending your own money is absurd.

  • but because of the tests I was able to search out a LLMD in my area. I saw him for a few months but had to stop due to financial reasons. that and my others doctors were still telling me that I did not have Lyme. Well suffice to say my symptoms came back and again no one could tell me what was wrong but I now knew what was wrong. Again I searched out another LLMD and I am once again receiving treatment. I am getting better little by little but I still have a long way to go.

  • Then one day about five years ago I woke up with severe pain in my hips, back, neck, feet and it has not let up since. I have also developed Peripheral Neuropathy in my legs and feet.  Almost all of my tests have been negative, normal and I was told that this was all in my head. It wasn't until I saw a nurse practitioner at a pain clinic I visit who said I might have Lyme. The test results back from Igenex were alarming and relieving at the same time. Unfortunately she could not treat me

  • I was bitten by a deer tick on my abdomen back in 1991 when I was in the US Army stationed at Ft. Belvoir, VA.

    I saw the tick and pulled it off but foolishly I never had myself checked out. A few days after being bitten I became very sick. The worst case of Flu one could imagine. I even lost the ability to speak. I couldn't even whisper. Of course that went away but from then on my memory was horrible, I had headaches, dizziness. Then I had weird uncontrollable shaking and convultions

  • It is unbelievable the ignorance surrounding something so deadly. It is not a step up from the common cold but a potential killer when it attacks the central nervous system or heart. I should think the lack of treatment is simply because insurance companies & health boards will not cover the cost. What happens as the numbers infected continues to grow? Will they just sit back & watch as more & more people die from lack of proper treatment. It is absolutely criminal.
