That's the only laguage I've ever seen them use when they are having to

admit something they are reluctant to admit...I'm curious as to why you

felt the need to show it " in context " ?

Do you feel it changes it's meaning or are you implying that I was

trying to hide something?

Yeah, like Lyme.

Anway, isn't the definition of what constitutes an autoimmune disorder a

bit more specific than that, " Anything that can trigger

chronic inflammation can have the effect. "

I'm not sure that every time inflammation is experienced that an

autoimmune condition is the result? Is that what you're saying? (I'm

trying to clarify so I understand where you're coming from)
