I wish you knew

For those people in my life who can't quite seem to figure out what happened and what went wrong and if I am really sick or not this is for you. The following list, although not exhaustive, is a list of symptoms of Lyme Disease compiled from Lyme Specialists. The ones with the asterisk (*) are the symptoms I have had in the past which for the most part, through specific supplementation I have eliminated. This should help those who don't understand, better understand what I am gone through and the fight for my health that I have been in.
