A Lyme Disease story

Misdiagnosed for over 12 years, with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, multiple chemical sensitivity, and others. After 2½ years of treatment, I have improved significantly up to 70-80%, but retained sequels like neuropathic and cognitive problems. Nevertheless, I can lead a normal life before treatments. I continue treating me with Cowden now for 9 months and I think the big problem are biofilms.

I had to leave my country, Spain, to be diagnosed and treated correctly, like many of other civilian, cause in Spain the doctors refuse and do not identify this disease.

I firmly believe in sexual and congenital transmission, despite further study, I have proven in my case personally.

Go strong warriors!!
