something is horribly wrong I feel like I'm dying

I've only heard good things about him and yes, I'm sure he's a very busy guy seeing as there aren't many LL doctors around this part of the country. Mine is very busy too and he's having his own health problem right now too, poor guy. He has employees that handle the calls and relay the messages to him so the appointments aren't interrupted, then they call back with his answer. A naturopath may not be able to afford the extra help like that.

I'm glad you're starting up a notebook to help you remember what you're learning. There's just so much info. on Lyme and co. to learn about and it can be overwhelming to try to remember it all.

Keep hanging in there and proceed slowly.

What station talked about Lyme? I'm guessing it was a Eugene station since there is a woman there working hard to get the word out on Lyme.

Do you go to your Lyme support group very often? That might be good for you to do also so you have some more support. Someone there may have some ideas for you too.

Enjoy this sunny day since rain is in the forecast and it sounds like the weather will get back to normal, unfortunately. I feel better when it's sunny and I've enjoyed the warmer weather.

Bummer. I thought the group was closer to you. There's a woman in our group who has brought her daughter a few times, but she lives closer to our group than you do. We meet from 1 to 3 on Sundays, which works out well for most people. I wonder if someone in the group would set up skype so you could take part from home. It wouldn't hurt to ask.

That's great to hear that KOBI is doing a series on it! I wish other stations in the NW would do that or at least have a news story about it. That could probably help some undiagnosed people.

I don't know either. It just came to mind and seemed like it was worth mentioning. You would see some of the people and be able to ask some questions. I'll have to mention this to our group leader for those who are home bound. Let me know how it goes if you decide to try it.

I'll look up the series sometime.

Have you gone outside today? It's so nice here, with warm sun and a cool breeze and me doing more than I probably should've, but rainy days are coming and I'll rest then.

I'm really sorry all - but this thread has gotten really, really long. We need to start a part 2 thread, please!!!
