thank you all so much for you help. yes i had symptons that resmbled lupus thyroid you name it. my deduction was this ok some of my symptons are ms , but ms don't really get these wierd rashes hair loss etc when i was diagnosed with lupus no one looked as ill as me. yet i had bad joint pains etc. i was diagnosed with tb but was not getting that much better and new symptons were appearing. i did improve slightly on tb meds but they use that to treat some forms of lyme. Anyhow its a long journey i hope i can stay in touch just for reassurance purposes. thank you for holding my hand through this. And finally im glad its not just anxiety. i was crying to the doctor and he held my hand .

Count yourself blessed to have a doctor who would show their humanity and hold your hand. You will get through this and look back to tell your others your tribulation. Hopefully your experiences will aid and comfort the next person who walks the same path as you are traveling.

Zoe, I'm glad that someone is listening! Ha, and some said that you can't get Lyme Disease in the UK, huh. Good for you for perservering! I hope you can get financial assistance to be treated as you need to be. I'm guessing you're already been on the Lyme board here -- there are some people who are very well versed and I hope they'll be helpful to you. But please, still do keep us posted!

Good luck to you as you move forward and don't be a stranger! :)
