I read that George W. Bush knew the tests were inaccurate and tried to enact legislation to improve testing measures, but it fell through. Now many more people have to suffer. That gets me angry!

Yep, I own a copy of Under Our Skin and saw the baseball player. I also met another Lyme patient along my journey who was diagnosed with Parkinson's and later found out it was Lyme with Babesia.

[ewford]

He said on David Letterman in '94 he had "a little Lyme in me".   See how he has progressed to parkinsons symptoms?  Did you watch Under Our Skin and see the baseball player that was diaged as parkinsons?

Great list...I am surprised to see some of these people on the list. I wasn't aware.
Michael J. Fox - Do you think he actually has Parkinson's or is it Lyme disguised as Parkinson's?
