This has been a very interesting thread. Thanks for sharing your story, Jules...and I'm really glad you're on the mend, at least from the Lymes.

It is so difficult, with all of these weird diseases that dress like one another, to get an answer, isn't it? It frustrates me, as I'm sure it does so many of you.
Sure wish the medical community would get the whole thing straight and get the knowledge they need to test us for these things, instead of shooing us off with a dx of depression and throwing rx of ADs at us as they usher us out the door. What if it's Lymes, MS, or something just as weird?
We, as patients, just want to make sure that the docs have it right and that they're not giving up on us...is that so wrong?

Again, Jules, thanks for letting us know how you're doing...take care of yourself!!
