Misdiagnosed with MS


by: Angela C. Smaldino on Sun, Sep 30 2007

I have never tried to hurt anyone in my life, but it was not my destiny to receive the same consideration. I was bitten by a tick and my husband removed it, but no one told me of lyme until I was so sick and then, even though I insisted it was the tick that had made me ill, I was labeled MS and given steroids. This made me even sicker and I was afraid of doctors by then so stayed alone in pain. Now 35 years I am ready to speak and want compensation and healing.
