my father was researching in lyme disease when he worked at the "serum institute" so luckily I have always been very aware of the disease!
But do you mean the doctors didn't recognise that lyme disease was what you had? How did you find out?

Before getting a Lyme diagnosis, I have seen over 20 specialists and each one of them gave me a different diagnosis. None of them was able to link everything together and have a better look at all of my symptoms. Some doctors still refuse to consider Lyme as a chronic illness, especially those working with the insurance companies - that's another can of worms I won't touch now.
oh my, i'm sorry to hear that! Good to know that you've come out stronger, though you still have to live with all that pain. I wish you all the best on your journey!
