Barely Above Water for $1.99 "Resonates with hope when all hope seems to be gone..." Fifteen years ago I grew quite ill. After having tests for a month, I was told treatment wasn’t available because my malady couldn’t be diagnosed. Divine intervention led me to an alternative doctor,  David Lee, D.C., Ph.D. and C.Ad. , who started treating me immediately and subsequently told me I had Chronic Lyme Disease.

There are ways to prevent it. When outdoors one should wear protective clothing, bug and tick spray, and keep hair away from leaves, foliage and grass. At the onset of a bite that looks as though it’s not an ordinary run of the mill spot, see a physician. For instance, if it’s unusually large or red, or if there’s anything that would make one suspect it could be a problem.
