ARTICLE SUMMARY

Fake stroke effect linked to full moon

THE full moon may cause people to suffer symptoms similar to those of a stroke, experts believe.

STROKE SYMPTOMS

16.08.08, 5:03pm

Stroke Symptoms can also be confused with advanced Lyme's Disease, which seems to be undiagnosable inside the NHS.
Especially if combined with a stiff neck and lethergy, arthritus and "foggy" eyesight.

NHS blood tests for Lyme's give negative results everytime, so you may find yourself being treated as a stroke patient as you finally end up in a wheel chair. and then a wooden box.

The only recourse is private medicine, Where Doxycyciline is one of the drugs commonly used to supress symptoms.
Lyme's disease Action Group may be of benefit.
Good luck !

I can vouch for that. We used to deal with more psychos on full moons than at other times.

There used to be three dead givaways:

1. They knew the Queen.

2. God spoke to them.

3. They claimed they were in the S. A. S.

Also, the men used to wear the regulation, half-mast trousers.
