EDIT: I confused the date on this post with another I was reading, so I'm waaaay behind in responding. Still, I hope things went well for VanceWine. Sorry for the thread necro-post.

I'm very sorry to hear of your illness, & I'm pleased you had it diagnosed early enough to make a 100% recovery.

Unfortunately for me, I contracted it sometime prior to 1999 & it went undiagnosed until 2004. The doctors in my area were simply unfamiliar with Lyme disease. As stated above, it has created a host of woes that I'm still muddling through.

Best of luck to you with your situation, but it sounds very positive since you have received prompt & aggressive treatment.

EDIT #2 - what caused me to dig through the archives int he first place was this article in Stars & Stripes: Lyme disease a difficult, common diagnosis in Europe
