  • The ONLY problem with this video is that it doesn't elaborate on the FACT that only a SMALL percentage of Lyme patients ever had a rash!

  • This is true - studies now show as few as 15% may see a rash. Thanks for bringing up an important point.

  • Whitney, thanks for your post. You don't know what it means to us to know that this video helped someone to find the answer, this was our main hope..thank you. May you be well soon sweetie..take care.

  • Without the internet & self-diagnosis 6 people in my family would all be suffering still. I had an MD yell at me to stop reading the internet and let him be the doctor! Had I not been persistent in finding out what was wrong with me & listened to him I doubt I'd be here today. My Lyme doctor told me that in medical school they are not taught about Ld. So, if any Md's read this, search lyme forums, see how we suffer, contact Turn the Corner Foundation & ILADS (dot org) - get educated!

  • Thank you for your comments and ratings. LymeliterateRN I myself learned doctor's were wrong the hard way. It is an epidemic in EVERY state. Here in Calif Md's think of this as an East Coast Disease. There are so many here misdiagnosed I am sure! Jramsboy, my son is your age and has had to put off college due to LD treatment. No matter how old or young we are Lyme is a life thief, I am glad you are doing better. What seems impossible you have proven is possible, wellness! Wellness to all, TALD

  • For those of you who think you have lyme - join a lyme support forum, they show one at the end of this video, there are many online. Patients can tell you how and where to see a Lyme literate Md and get checked through Igenex Tick Borne Specialty lab. Lyme disease is the fastest growing infectious disease in the U.S. and has surpassed AIDS by far - ticks live in your yard and are the size of a poppy seed. Get to a forum and talk w/the experts - the lyme patients. Great video covers it all.

  • Wrote a Lyme disease brochure with the help of 2 Lyme disease specialists. Will email a copy to anyone interested.

  • NEWS FLASH: If you missed the award winning film on the Lyme Controversy called "Under Our Skin" on PBS, you can now see it for free on Hulu HERE: huluDOTcom/watch/268761/under-­our-skin

    ANYONE who SUSPECTS they may have Lyme should watch this!

    The Lyme spirochete looks similar to the SYPHILLIS bacteria and needs to be treated with LONG TERM IV antibiotics for relief - most in the medical profession do NOT know this!

    Good luck & God Bless!

  • This disease and others can be stopped with Colloidal Silver Atoms! True atomic size particles of silver will kill any bioweapon

  • DON"T EVER GIVE UP, FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT, THE TIMES WHEN YOU FEEL ALONE FOLLOW THE LORD. FOR HE WILL BRING YOU THROUGH.

  • Please be aware of suddenly coming down with a fever or flu like symptoms in the middle of summer. Followed by loss of short term memory (phone numbers, names etc). Followed by loss of breath by walking up a simple flight of stairs. And alcohol intolerance (used to be able to have 4-6 drinks but now get drunk from 1) Most people don't remember a rash or bulls-eyes so I always refer them to tangible symptoms.

  • This so sucks. I'm pretty sure like 99% that this is what I have. It's so frustrating. My NP is the only one who seems to care... And that's only because she knew me before I got so sick. I've just started the doxycycline and it seems to be helping. Not sure if I can convince her to give me more if one round doesn't "cure" it. I'm 39 and applying for disability. I was studying for my BScN with a 3.65 GPA. Now I'll probably not remember I posted this in the morning. God help us all. -3

  • I searched over the internet for people who managed to get rid of lyme disease but I still haven't found any case which worries me. everyone is sick but nobody is cured? what happens with people suffering from lyme disease? why they don't write testimonials about their curing?

  • Thank you for this video. VERY informative and in an "easy to read" format for people who don't understand Lyme. I suffer greatly from Chronic Lyme. I went from the most vibrant person anyone knew, to basically bedridden most of the time. I trained horses and gave lessons and worked 16 hrs a day farm labor.... now I lay here in a dark room, heartbroken that even the sound of my children laughing kills my ears due to the increased sensitivity. LYME KILLS. Spread the word!!
