With no support in my area I searched the web for help, after two years I stumbled on to MDJ.
The bi-polar II group has been my life line since 12/26/2009.

My llmd has been treating my lyme for the past three months . . it's been up and down, but for the most part pretty well. I have at times, felt alot better. For the past two years, since I have had lyme, I haven't really caught anything. . . no colds, no flu, so when I was exposed to a cold and then caught it, I was shocked. Is this a sign that my immune system is slowly calming down or being trashed?Wassat

my non-medical opinion is it was just your turn to get a cold.

i've had chronic lyme 40 yrs; 34.5 yrs. misdx by 40-50 drs.

treated for first 2 yrs. plus; i got a terrible bronchitis one during that time; since then i've had flue shots until this year. betty

up we go for more replies since it was buried. Smile
