I hesitate to post because it feels callous, but it doesn't sound like her physician did a good job either? Unless she was fighting his attempts to diagnose cancer with her own attempts to self-diagnose Lyme, it seems like neither did any good.
- tokai 7y agoYour post feels callous to me too. The point of my post was that chronic lyme fearmongering made their relationship dysfunctional. Delaying proper diagnosis and treatment. It goes without saying that a physician overlooking cancer for years isn't doing a great job - by definition. But they are not miracle workers, and it's tough to help someone working against you.
