Julie, that sounds an awful lot like Lyme Disease!! Been there, suffered that... Marshalee
It's me again...I have a friend who's a nurse who has always gotten sick AT LEAST 5 or 6 times/year. She has an auto immune disorder and was just told she has a blood disease called HTLV type II which attacks the central nervous system, mimics MS, causes numbness in hands and feet. She's says they (government) are just studying this disease now, but it's similar to HIV, but not HIV. Anyone with experience or info about this? She recently called asking for advice I'm trying to talk her into CS. She says the doc's always prescribe antibiotics and they rarely if ever work. Happy Howling, Julie & Critters
