Hey Everyone! Here is the final report for the project. I am sorry this has taken so long. I had a lot to wrap up for school in the past month. I also wanted to wait until I got a response back from my professor with any editing suggestions.
Once again, I want to say thank you for participating in the project. I could not have done this project without you. One of my goals in the near future is to pursue publication. This is a long process, so it will take some time; however, I believe this report can shed some light on one of the fastest growing epidemics in the world.
If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me. You can leave a comment below or you can e-mail me at lymegradproject@gmail.com.
Thanks!
Dawn :)
Wonderful! Thanks for all your hard work. I hope physicians read your results and stop denying the importance of the Internet and social media to Lyme patients' physical and emotional healing.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had known about your project!
ReplyDeleteMy son's Lyme Disease was caused by a dog tick--YES. A dog tick was removed from in his ear, so engorged it was the size of a large pill! It had been there a few days, as it had 1/4 inch of skin on its head when it was removed with tweezers by the doctor.
Had my sister, two aunts, a friend and the secretary at work not had it, I would have believed the doctor who said no medicine was necessary! I demanded doxycycline, and she gave him one double-dose.
We went to an infectious disease doctor who knew nothing about Lyme Disease. It wasn't until I corrected him about ISDA information that he finally backed down and admitted he knew NOTHING about Lyme!
Within 10 days, all of his symptoms were back, and he was screaming in terror from the pain. I took him immediately to my homeopathic doctor, who has been treating him for one year.
The Lyme has attacked his thyroid. At the age of 9 he has Hashimoto's. This is a condition that usually appears in a person's 50s. We treat him with over 22 pills a day to maintain his health!
I feel for all of the people who believed their doctors and who had to deal with the terror of this disease. I pray daily for their health. Bless you for taking on this project!
Dawn, this is such an impressive project! I can't imagine how much work you put into it. Thanks for calling attention to it and using this project to educate others. You're the best :)
