My Lyme disease journey started over ten years ago. It was very difficult in the beginning and we struggled through doctors appointments, learning little about what I was going through and being misdiagnosed.
When I was finally diagnosed with Lyme Disease I thought the search was over because I finally had an answer. However, the battle had just begun. We thought we were totally alone in this fight especially with little help from the medical community.
It wasn't until we met Rebecca and discussed starting a support group for sufferers of Lyme and their families. My path has been more like a roller coaster and although I have a long road ahead, I have overcome so much and with the help of Lyme WNY, I know we aren't alone.
