"Diagnosed with Lyme. Support & Education." (POQAL)

MDJunction to me

mabri"When I was diagnosed about 18 months ago with fibromyalgia, I didn't know where to turn. I got on my computer and looked for a support group where I could talk to other people with the same disease and get some help...Information, suggestions, mostly just what I can do now that I have this.....disorder/disease/syndrome...I didn't even know what to call it. I found MDJ, and yes, there was a support group for fibro. I started a post, and figured I would never get an answer. However, very quickly I was welcomed in, and became really involved in the group. I received help, support, friendship and the feeling of being truly cared about by these strangers who had become like family to me. Now, I have been here for about a year and a half...I have become a group leader, and love every minute of it. It is so wonderful to be able to help others. I still receive help and answers from the members in this group. The fibromyalgia is where I go to help, support, listen, care and even laugh. I don't know what I would do without this group."

For those who live in Ma, the channel 5 news at 5 is doing a special broadcast on Lyme. I just saw a segment on a commerical. It shows DR. D and tells about proof that Lyme can kill. It should be interesting. Anything to get people to think about it is good.

For the rest of us...

Do you think there is a website that maybe we can watch also?

Ugh Sorry I could not post until now. The "program" was a joke they spent most of the time talking about a loose moose. Then they only played it for around 30 seconds. They showed more in the clip to preview it than what actually aired. Another opportunity missed.
