Jan Dooley
- I didn't see the tick or a bull's-eye 5 years ago. I had just
moved to South Carolina and was busy settling in, when I became very
weak and couldn't walk and was confused and lost 10 lbs in a month.
I finally got a blood test for Lyme and it was confirmed
Ehrlichiosis, but after 3 months of the nightmare, I got a 14-day
dose and my life has been hell since. I've spent thousands of $ and
been to over 30 doctors including Mass General with no validation of
Chronic Lyme. My story is the same as everyone else's. I am getting
so much help from the book "Unknown Cure" that I now have hope. I
can't do the antibiotics because it gives me "Leaky Gut" so I get
alternative methods and acupuncture. We will find a cure if we all
fight the ignorance of this mind blowing neglect of the medical
community.
