jenbug Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 (edited) My husband and I are halfway through that movie (got too tired to finish last night). OMG! I can't believe how severe it can get or how many ppl are afflicted with it! I also made an observation that I thought was important, but maybe it is just my tv resolution, LOL. I noticed that most of the ppl on there that have Lyme have a malar-type rash and some on the chin. My ODD12 and I BOTH have a similar rash that gets worse in the summer, but is not an actual burn...just a dark pink tint no matter how much sunscreen we put on. it also appears even in winter when either of us is flushed from hard cleaning, exercise, etc. Am I just nuts to see this, or has anyone else experienced this very mild malar-type rash? The movie was very sobering. I cried for awhile afterwards. Edited July 18, 2011 by jenbug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzan Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 I need to watch it again. The DVD I was using was having an issue so I kept getting interrupted. Plus, at the time, I kept thinking, "this is not us" because we were not as bad off as some of those in the movie. That was before things really got bad with me. Still, even with all that going on, it was a great documentary and very moving and scary. Susan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmersonAilidh Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Even though my case seems more physical than hers I was still really glad that they included Dana. That way everyone watching it doesn't Think that all of us Lymies are as bad off as Mandy, you know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenbug Posted July 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 yeah, I am thinking they may have had the worst case ones on there. I relate to Dana most as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
