Let's meet and discuss how Tick-borne disease, in its many forms (Babesia, Lyme, Bartonella, etc.) impact our lives. I decided to start this group for 2 reasons - After I was FINALLY diagnosed I thought it was the end of my journey. I quickly realized it was just the beginning of our roller coaster ride to seeking wellness.
