Hi! My friend has been diagnosed with "lyme disease" she had a positive result back in 2007. However, she has spent thousands of dollars out of her own pocket to go to neuroligists, 3 of them so far, all to be told she has ALS. They wont even acknowledge the lyme positive test, they say she has white matter on her brain, but not alot. she has someeeee classic als symptoms, ie..her hands are curled and weak, she basically cannot use them, but bless her heart, she can still type, she wont give up! Does anyone know the next step we can take with this? It feels like these doctors turn their back on the lyme diagnosis..? Im at my wits end, and dont know what to do to help her. Her speech is just fine by the way, and her walking is good, she does however have "klonis" in her legs.. does anyone know of a next avenue we could go to treat lyme?. Thank you very much for reading this long post..
