Lyme is actually quite hard to diagnose, at least that's what i've heard.
It is hard to diagnose... I don't see how going with a mystery illness just for the sake of getting a diagnosis any better. I find people are either misinformed or are afraid of Lyme. So they won't even touch the subject and rather stick with CFS and Fibro. I'm not dismissing the possible existence of these illnesses I just find it strange that people will do all this research on OTHER illnesses and yet judge Lyme based on what they've "heard." Maybe people don't want to be seen as one of those cookie Lyme people... I just think it's strange.
I'm not trying to be a jerk. I am very concerned for people who appear to be ill lately. I'm noticing A LOT of people where I go to school have been acting sick. Friends new and old made through the net (happening BEFORE Swine Flu). People are obsessed with Swine Flu as a pandamic but Lyme has bee one already for years. You don't find that strange? Just smoke and mirrors if you ask me.
@SagiCap I don't mean to come off as harsh in this discussion, but I feel strongly that anyone with "flu like symptoms" should explore Lyme as a possibility.
