Hey Debi and Reid,

I've been with this group for some time too. I love both of your posts.

I don't think either one of you are really angry. I just think that we are

fighting to get the same treaments that Reid has been able to get.

Unfortunately it just isn't that easy. You need various things, the right

documentation of signs/symptoms by a Dr., certain diagnositic tests, all

during certain times. On top of that, you need a bunch of other tests to

rule out other diseases. Something as simple as anemia, can cause you not

to get certain treaments paid for by insurance. Do you know if you get

bitten by another tick, that can cause the insurance company to have you

start all over from the beginning!! No matter how far into treatment you

are.???

There are so many variables. Its not really getting the Dr. to correctly

Diagnosis Lyme. Its getting the insurance company to believe our

DRs...thats the real issue. I think thats what to two of you were trying

to get across to one another. So lets just continue to help....I for one

need to know as much as possible, to get the things I need to have my

insurance cover my treatments.....so everyone please share....Connie nwnj
