Thank you for making this video. It is the bravery of people like you who are going to make a difference in the Lyme community. I have fought the tick borne illness battle for almost a decade and I have like you had much improvement. If the 35 different Canadian doctors I saw during the first 6 years I was ill had diagnosed me properly and started treatment I would not have had to endure years of unbelievable pain and disability. The fact that I have to go to the USA for treatment is a sin. The fact that I can still afford to go makes me luckier than many. Keep up the fight.
Again, thank you for what you have done.
