Lymes Disease - Are you aware?

[~Gee_Whizzy~]

yes the chronic fatigue was a by-product of the undiagnosed Lyme. when she wanted to initially be tested for LD, they scoffed at her and said it was "impossible" because it didn't exist here

Yep. It surprised me reading so many articles right up until so recently that it was chronic fatigue. And every single specialist said it was the most extreme case they'd ever seen. Yet no one looked further. I moved here in Jan 2012. Trey was diagnosed in late 2011/early 2012 (can't remember), I can't believe someone so sick couldn't get anyone to listen, yet Trey managed to get help not long after that & pretty much straight away. Not saying Trey wasn't seriously sick, but he wasn't incapacitated. He's mostly a normal cheeky 4 year old boy now... getting up to a lot of mischief with DS

Pretty sure his mum & 2.5 year old sister have now been diagnosed too. But I can't say for sure about his sister. I don't do the rumour mill. I wait til I hear it from the person themselves.
