Hi Lorraine,
<< This person will work with my MD to help me treat it--I suspect that it will mean intravenous antibiotics for a period of time 6 weeks or more, then oral antibiotics for another period (maybe life).>>
Will you need to go to the hospital to get the
intravenous antibiotics?

<< I was never tested for it before. But after the chronic fatigue diagnoses (which basically just said "you have a ton of viruses out of control in your body and your immune system sucks", I asked my doctor if we had ruled out Lyme.>>
And doctors wonder why we don't just lay back and let them diagnose us. Why we are so assertive and don't believe that doctors are gods.

> I'll keep you posted.>
Please do,
Shelli
