Link Between MS, ALS and Lyme Disease

ABC is doing a story on the link between MS (and possibly ALS) and Lyme Disease.  It will be on the show Primetime

Yes, the series began last night, but I think the first show was going to be about dwarves or something.  I didn't check it out - completely forgot to!

The Lyme & MS/ALS show is now scheduled for later in February, but as yet I don't have a definitive date.

One of the people who was interviewed for the Lyme program is keeping some of us informed, and he promises to let us know as soon as there is a scheduled date for the program.  He said that he has been to 16 doctors because most neuro docs won't validate the Lyme/MS connection in any form.  

I will come over and start a whole new topic here once I get more info.

I think that is true - there has been a change, but I don't have any word yet on the new date.  I'll try and post a new topic when I get more info.

I also heard they have "expanded" the program - it will include more footage and be an hour instead of 1/2 hour.

Hi, Truthfinder!
Thanks for the update, I will be sure to watch it.  Probably explains why so many people get mis-diagnosed.

Anyway, Happy New Year's and Best of Health to you!
