Fantastic interview.
Thank you !!! Exclent Interview !! Lyme Warrior since ’08. I was misdiagnosed for 5 years!
I’m interested to hear your story about your misdiagnosis.I was just diagnosed with ALS. Doctors never tested for Lyme. I paid to have the test on my own. It came back positive. Problem is I can’t get doctors to listen. They say it doesn’t change the diagnosis.
We recommend you find an ILADS-affiliated doctor who has experience treating Lyme disease which presents with an ALS-type symptoms.
Thank you for the rest of the story! Maybe what the CDC/IDSA needs next is a high-powered Lyme literate attorney to take them on in the form of class action. Never have the sick had to fight for treatment, losing our jobs, savings, families and homes, all at the expense of trying to get well. It’s an atrocity that the CDC allows physicians to turn a blind eye to the suffering.
Dr. Steven Phillips is the best LLMD ever. I was diagnosed by him in 2006 as having late stage Lyme. He looked through hundreds of pages of my records and determined that I had first been bitten in 1994. Since he was 4 hours away, I found another MD in NJ who I believed would help me. It turns out that her treatment was incorrect and unsuccessful. I have now had untreated Lyme for 22 years and actually died a month ago in the ER. I currently live in FL where almost no MD’s understand Lyme. How I regret not making the trip to see Dr. Phillips. I now have permanent brain, lung, heart, central nervous system, and stomach damage. No one understands how great the suffering is until they have walked in your shoes and I’m fed up with being asked if I’m depressed, hormonal or psychosomatic.
