Again, I've been a lot of places doing a lot of things in my life. I've never seen a 24 degree drop in 24 minutes. Blew my mind. Oh, and the wind was 40mph+ when the boundary ca…

    So, Lyme is an interesting topic. If I still had Lyme, I would by symptomatic and sick. It's a bacteria. Lyme Disease is a bacterial infection. However, once it's gone, it's gone. It doesn't lie dormant like a virus, waiting for the right time to awaken(think Shingles). Thus, what people refer to a "Chronic Lyme Disease" isn't active Lyme Disease.
