    For any young people worrying about Other Diseases

    Re: For any young people worrying about ALS And MS. Nikki, you were right on the money. When I had suggested Lyme back then, that doctor thought I was insane. Then I finally had the right testing all thru Quest. Just very depressing and devastating when you're told you're crazy and then see...
