I have what the docs diagnose as "Multiple chemical sensitivity" "chronic fatigue" and "fibromyalgia" all with overlapping symptoms with each other and with lyme disease. I know that the standard treatment for lyme disease is antibiotics, that I absolutely can not tolerate, so I never bothered with the blood test years ago when I first heard about lyme disease.

about a year ago, an acupuncturist I was working with again mentioned lyme disease, and recommended I be tested for it and that if I had it, he could treat me. I never went about doing it, though, and with your post here it's probable that if I got the standard blood test, then it may not show up as Lyme disease anyway even if I had it.

what do you recommend regarding diagnosis for lyme disease? here you say Pres. Bush was diagnosed by a clinician--how does one tell the difference between this illness and immune system imbalance that I have?

thanks!

Liora
