I feel like I have just dug into a serious conspiracy however my mother just thinks I have lost my mind as per usual.
I called the "doctor in Canada" and he has not been taking Lymes patients for over 3 months and I was seriously pushed off the phone and every question I asked was like it was a tape recorder as if she was told to say the things she was saying. She did however tell me to call Toronto General Hospital for Tropical Disease, they dismissed me quite quick and pretty much said there was no one in Canada to see for lymes.
Okay so that is JUST great, I finally feel that after 17yrs of suffering I was getting somewhere, some new leads as to what is wrong with me and now I need to try to see if my doctor will even sign off on the igenex kit and what happens after that. What if it is positive, what test do I ask to have done, I seriously feel like I have been put through the ringer and its so wrong.
Here is my life in a nutshell can you really tell me that I dont have it??
