I just saw the movie under our skin!

It was good, but it makes me so mad about how we lymes are treated! It's so political and it's all about the money!

I am sending a copy fo my family so they can stop asking me so many questions!

When they show that Worsmer guy who believes chronic lyme doesn't exist...I just want to see him inject Borreila in his arms...which shouldn't make a difference since he says it doesn't exist! Then he can really disprove to all of us that the illness is in our heads! Oh, and when he gets sick we will make sure he follows his own CDC guidlines! Then refer him to a shrink! LOL

CDC/ISDA = Murders!

That's how the movie made me feel! I'm going to go cry now!

I am right there with you on this one. I have also seen "Under Our Skin." It made me cry over and over again. We are all so sick and tired of being told it's in our heads, and that there is no such thing as Chronic Lymes. Well, I am Chronic, so there must be Chronic Lymes, Right CDC???? What a bunch of nut heads making our guidelines. I can get a prescription for Doxy for up to a year if I had a bad case of ACNE, but if I have a disease called LYME, I only get 21 days and it's cured???? What a sad sad picture. When will this ever end??? We must keep telling everyone we know our story and keep pursuing the truth. The more numbers out there telling what is going on, the better it is for us down the road. They will not be able to keep lying about this forever. No Way, No How!!! It must come to an end!!! Luvdtoteeup!!

Hey Teri,

Please do not take anything I say as medical advice. I am not a doctor.

Open your mind to the possibilities available to you.

An attitude of gratitude is good 'medicine,' too.

You're welcome! I did have a wonderful day. It's hot and muggy down here in the South right now (as it is in much of America right now, too). We are making the best of it and going swimming every day and just hanging out doing a whole lot of nothing. Thank you! I hope you are doing okay, too.
