phil and staff,
thank you ALL for doing the lyme disease show today. you covered a LOT in a very short period of time.
please have another 1-2 hr. shows giving more details and covereing what you didn't cover today:
HEALTH INSURANCE companies use the idsa/cdc guidelines.
so ALL of our expenses are paid OUT OF POCKET for appts, RX/OTC meds, labs, and all other expenses related to our LYME/CO-INFECTIONS, other diseases the ticks/etc. carry.
CONGRESS /politics..our lyme/vector-born bills have been in congress 11-12 yrs. now. we can't get them on the house rep/senate SUB-COMMITTEE HEALTH groups!
they are being paid OFF BY "MEDICAL COMMUNITY" LOBBYIST NOT TO ADD OUR LYME/VB BILLS TO THEIR AGENDAS to be discussed/cussed!
in past, NJ REP HEALTH SUBCOMMITTEE chair, frank pallone, was paid by the MC LOBBYIST above $500,000+ for 2-3 years NOT to put our lyme/vb bills on the agenda to finally be discussed and VOTED ON! disgusting!
animals are given better care then our huge lyme/VB community! they received prompt treatment.
we are called hypochondriacs, drug seekers, and it's all in your head mentality. HOGWASH! wrong, wrong, wrong!
st ephanie managed to talk about her huge bills and using ALL THE MONEY she had plus what she still owes.
dr. bhakta did a great job in the short amount of time she had using the most recent MONKEY TEST outcome to DISPUTE dr. autewater's statements about long-term abx use!
watching and hearing stephanie was like watching mandy hughes, the blond swimmer, from UNDER OUR SKIN lyme documentary.
well done brooke and kathy.
phil, thank yOU for having the guts to air this today, and we look forward to followup shows on what was not covered today.
to all of you in lyme/vb community, CALL YOUR PUBLIC TV STATIONS to reair in its entirity UNDER OUR SKIN lyme documentary.
last year idsa lobbied all 50 states NOT to air this which tells our PATIENT perspective on how the idsa shoves under the rug our CHRONIC LYME DISEASE! HOGSWASH!
50% of our states AIRED UOS; IOWA DID! i'm working on them again right now.
with dr. phil airing this today, it's AMMUNITION to use in pursuading PTV to reair UOS lyme documentary again.
thank you stephanie, brooke, kathy, dr. b, and dr. a for your parts in today's brief 30 minute show on LYME DISEASE REPURCUSSIONS AND THE LYME WAR CONTROVERSY.
