MDJunction to me

jackie1979"MDJ is like a family to me where I can talk to others who understand how I feel. I can as group leader help others and support them and be there
for each other for the good and bad times. MDJ has helped me come to terms with my disability and be able to live my life and be positive. I just hope that I can be there for others like my friends on MDJ have been here for me.

Parkinsons Many Times Cause By Lyme M J Fox
Written by Canuck   
22 March 2009

This is not a surprise at all to Lyme disease patients.. We have to inform everyone. A recent study was done on some 30 yr. olds who had died with parkinsons.. Dying with Parkinsons as the only known ilness is terribly rare. They all were found to be Lyme positive... So please.. Even if you were tested for Lyme and negative, the tests are inaccurate and even the best doctors in the world are unaware of this...If you are always 'sick' and everyone tels you it's in your head, you feel crazy, doctors ignore you, chances are, you do not have PD, even if you do, Lyme could have been the trigger. I am not discounting a PD diagnosis at all... Just making sure that everyone knows that a through workup has been done and that you know all the facts....Christina

 

Better to be safe than sorry. Lyme kills

The following is a discussion concerning Fox and his Lyme Disease

Many who first have lyme end up being diagnosed with these other diseases

On the cover of the National Examiner's (yes the tabloid) May 27, 1997
edition which is currently out, the "Bug Bite Threatens Michael J. Fox
Career" banner is flying just above "Oprah's Battle With Baldness."
Open to page 35.

MICHAEL J. FOX CAREER THREATENED BY BIZARRE DISEASE.

His nightmare began with a bite from this
little tick!
