  • Please take the time to hear my story. I searched for 4 years, was misdiagnosed and dismissed countless times by doctors. I was misdiagnosed 10 times until I was finally tested for Lyme Disease and co-infections. I almost lost my life in the pursuit of answers while my body fell apart from this disease. Please watch to know you aren't alone and so you know you can heal through the help of a doctor educated in this disease.

    Oh my god... My experience with doctors and Lyme babs and ehrlichosis are nearly identical. I've been living with it for over 25 years now. Also got the probable ms diagnosis and anxiety. If you ever need to talk to someone just reach out and I will gladly share or just listen. Thank you for this video. It is life changing but in some ways made me a much more compassionate person.

    You could have saved so much money if they just diagnosed you correctly early on and think of all the additional conditions you may not have had to go through with early treatment-something needs to be done!

    This is the first 'Lyme story' on RUclips I could relate to. The first one also, where the person had actually been positively tested by Specialty Labs and I know you and your doctor are legit, since he's the same guy who finally diagnosed me, after going without a dx for 25+ years. Before that, Lyme wasn't even on my radar and I was often told I was just depressed, crazy, etc. Thanks for sharing! So many Lyme stories are by people with no testing or who had active Lyme. I have a strong desire to share my own, but I've been afraid it will affect my business reputation. You are brave.

    Good job sticking with what you believe is right! I've recently been in a situation that felt similar to your feelings when those closest to you dismiss what you're saying, and even tell you that it's not happening or impossible. That hurts coming from someone you thought knew you for so long.

    I had 3 “negative” Lyme tests because the CDC guidelines state there have to at least 5 bands out of 10 to be considered positive. Now I’m living with the damage and struggle to get through the day. It has been a nightmare for me, my family and friends since 2005. I thank you for your awareness. Blessings to you Jessica.

    Thank you for sharing ! I am a lyme sister. Can relate to your story very much. Crying watching this. People dont understand if they haven't experience this nightmare. Thankful for my family support also. I wouldn't be here either.

    Thank you for sharing your story. I’m so sorry for all that you went through. The medical community’s neglect of people with this disease is inexcusable. It makes me think of a field of ostriches with there heads in the sand. I’ve never sued anyone, but I wish I could take on the American Medical Association for their incompetence regarding Lyme Disease. I can’t imagine how different my son’s life would be if his pediatricians hadn’t brushed off his early symptoms.

    Jessica we are so proud of you. I don’t know how many times I’ve shared your video already but I won’t stop I think yours is one of the best description life is for us and I think it will wake people up. I’m going to do the best I can to get justice for all of us and I wish you all the best. And those of you out there who don’t have families like myself I’m fighting for you too. Because you’re my family, and I couldn’t wish for a kinder more beautiful family. It’s just so sad how we were brought together but together they have made it, many haven’t and for those who haven’t and for those who still stand a chance I’m going to fight for them. Sending love and hugs to every lyme Warrior out there. Some are fighting warriors some are wounded and some don’t even know they’re victims of a crime. It is such a cruel world but I think we bring a lot of beauty to it

    Thank you for sharing this. My symptoms came on over many years. Finally got treatment after approximately 25 years. I feel you and am so happy your life has improved. I’m still on the journey. Some of the strains are in remission but more to come.
