What's This Site About:
I've had my site up for over 10 years and I've offered assistance with designing websites, my first passion. Now I'm changing the content of my site to focus on making people more aware of Lyme Disease and it's affects on your life. This website is intended to offer you information, education, and some controversial and common treatment options. I will try my best to keep up with the content but I do this between working a full time job and dealing with many of the symptoms listed below. I am still building website, so if you would like me to assist you with getting your website together, feel free to contact me too.
Disclaimer:
In a world where everyone is so ready to sue and blame you for everything, I am not an expert in Lyme Disease. In fact, I'm broke and suffering from an illness that is so expensive. I am only an expert in my symptoms and how they've affected me. The information contained on this site regarding Lyme Disease is intended for information purposes and some of the treatment options that I've found are experimental and not FDA approved. Please consult a licensed Physician before attempting to begin a new treatment and remember to become more informed and aware of yourself. I am not a medical professional, just a broke Lymie.
About Me
- I have Lyme Disease and I am in no way an expert nor am I giving any type of professional advise on the topic. I am tired of living with Lyme Disease and it's many symptoms, but I am stuck until they find a cure or something that makes me feel better. I remember when I first got diagnosed with Lyme Disease and how I felt so hopeless and helpless, I felt stuck. Today I am no longer hopeless and helpless and my hope is that I can help at least one person get out of that feeling.

2. WEAR LONG SLEEVES & LONG PANTS. Tuck the legs into your socks. Light-colored clothes make it easier to spot ticks.
3. STAY IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAILS. Don't brush against leaves and weeds or hike through the underbrush.
4. USE AN INSECT REPELLENT. Follow manufacturers directions.Look for ones containing 25-35% DEET.
5. CHECK FOR TICKS OFTEN. Crawling ones can be brushed off carefully.
6. PLACE CLOTHES IN A DRYER. A 1/2 hr. dryer high heat cycle will destroy ticks which might be hiding in clothing. the scalp, and behind the ears.
7. DO A THOROUGH TICK CHECK. Ticks crawl upward until they are stopped..Check legs, waistline, bra line, and armpits, and ask a family member to help check scalp, back, etc.
8. USE REPELLENTS AND CHECK YOUR PETS before they enter the house for crawling or attached ticks. 9. HUNTERS AND TRAPPERS SHOULD HANG ANIMAL CARCASSES AWAY FROM BUILDINGS. Put a bucket of bleach water under the animal to catch any ticks falling off. Wear rubber gloves when field dressing or handling meat to minimize chances for infection.
