Plus i have all the info i need i just had to do interviews and i thought this was the perfect way. so if you wanna learn about it i can give you all the info you need=]

Answer:
Yes. 2 personally (before I joined a Lyme group) & myself.
What do I KNOW? [Space limited here!] A lot …& not anywheres enough.
It DID “paralyze [my] life”, for 8 months. It's not 'gone'. It's “in remission”.
Yes. Stay outa the woods- esp May thru July- if possible, wear repellant (w/ DEET) on lower clothing & pants inside socks (pref both light-colored) , & do regular “tick checks”. 
Answer:
How about you go out and research it yourself get in touch with local care homes hospitals etc and do it yourself be a bit more rewarding and interesting rather then using yahoo answers to help you as if you need to provide evidence of some sort it isn't going to look good now is it?
