Sure, it&#8217;s there, and sometimes worse than others (or is that just the bronchitis I spent a month fighting back from?).

They evaluated 73 patients with chronic lyme disease. Six of those patients were tested repeatedly over 4 months. They found significant differences between those with chronic lyme, and various comparison groups. This constitutes (I believe) better [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=gotlyme.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2371223&amp;post=655&amp;subd=gotlyme&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
