MDJunction to me

Storm6751"MDJunction to me is somewhere i feel safe i feel i can be myself and not be judged. I love the fact that i get to see that im not alone in what i am going through and i also get the chance to help others on their journey through guidance and communication.
I would truly be lost without MDJunction... to me its my savior, my personal place to go where i don’t feel so alone anymore in the world.

Miguel's 20 reasons why LYME is UNDERDIAGNOSED
Written by littlegirlbigdream   
22 April 2012

Okay so, I am transfering over some of the articles from the main lyme group over to here, as one of our memebers requested.

20 Reasons Why Lyme Disease Is Underdiagnosed

by Miguel Perez-Lizano, June 2010

Note to Reader; (LENGTHY by bettyg, iowa leader)

This paper was written to outline some of the problems associated with the diagnosis of Lyme disease. It turned out much longer than expected.

The paper has been broken up into brief sections. A two page summary is available. Link to two page summary
