Greta-
You are misinformed. Lyme disease has been found in hundreds of year old ticks in the British Museum. It has been found in a Lousiana swamp corpse (a child) from 1000 years back that was well-preserved. All documented, look on pubmed for yourself or if you want me to post those I can.
Lyme disease has been here all along. There IS NO recent advent of LYme disease, just people catching on that their Grandmas Rheumatic Fever or Uncles MS was Lyme all along.
Many people with LYme have had LPs diagnosed MS, that is not a differential. There IS no differential between Lyme disease and MS, none.
I am the support group facilitator for SC County and we have had over a dozen MS Lymies in our local group. MANY had no positive Lyme tests or history of rash. ALl were responsive to treatment.
Take care,
Sarah Olson
