NW Lyme Patient meet-up

Good morning,

I emailed with Traveler to get approval to post about our new Northwest (OR, WA, MT, ID, even CA)group.

A few Lyme patients from the Pacific NW are starting a group and would like to get together once a year in the Fall. We're excited for this inaugural workshop on October 8! Being that the workshop's theme is, “Unraveling the mystery of lyme disease," we are just a group of concerned citizens who have been personally impacted by lyme disease who want to give back by helping patients in the Eastern Washington-Idaho-Montana region get better by finding access to appropriate diagnosis and treatment.
We are hoping to connect with more patients in the area.
I was bit by a tick in MT in 2008. I was not diagnosed until early 2011. My daughter was born with Lyme in 2009. Both of us were in treatment for 4 years and are doing well and have been off ABX for two years. We currently live in Seattle, WA.
I know there are many more people in the NW and we are trying to build a type of support group since groups in the NW area are harder to come by.

We have a Facebook Page:

Thank you,

Artermix, have you checked into these groups: www.lymenet.org/SupportGroups/UnitedStates/Pennsylvania/

That is awesome! I wish I could go. We have no Canadian support groups in my area. It is hard finding people here in Canada but there are still a lot of cases.

evianangel - you are more than welcome to come! I know a few people planning to come from the BC area. The more people to better - great way to network and find support.
