A friend of mine and my husband’s was diagnosed with MS.
She is a pilot, recently retired and was going downhill fast so far as her symptoms. She did some research. And more research. And went to a specialist in another state who diagnosed her with Lyme disease after many tests.
She went on a several month antibiotic and every single symptom has been reversed and she is 100% back to who she was before all of this hit her.

Wow. Great story. Good that she got a second opinion.
Interesting! Which antibiotic?
There is a lot of evidence that Lyme disease was created at the Plum Island research facility.

Sound familiar?
Lymes is nasty business .... getting the right diagnosis can be really hard. My niece worked for a woman who was pretty much bedridden ... took 10 years & she was finally diagnosed with Lymes. She had antibiotics to the heart via a peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC line). Last I heard, she was much improved and doing ok.
A guy at church was having leg issues - avid skier & the docs said it was his back, maybe from a fall on the slopes, so he had back surgery. Next, they said it was MS & he continued to decline - we watched him go from walking with a cane, to a walker, to a wheelchair, probably in the space of a year. Turned out it was ALS .... he died within 2-3 years of diagnosis ... mid-30’s.
I once knew a woman who was diagnosed with MS. She spent years on medication that affected her health. Then she found out she was misdiagnosed - she'd never had MS.
Makes you wonder... How many people have been misdiagnosed with MS, and they never find out?
Lyme disease is tricky. Kris Kristofferson was diagnosed with dementia and everything else under the sun for a couple years. They didn’t know what to do with him. They finally found out he had Lyme disease.
THAT is a great story. I am glad for your friend, and hope that Christina (and others diagnosed with it) can recover the same way.
