Just wanted to bump this topic back to the top again. Anybody scheduled for Poland around this time? We have just over two weeks until we leave so we are getting pretty excited.

Hi Whitey. More very helpful information. We need to be tested for Lyme Disease? How do we do that (Canadians)?

I will check with my GP about the records. There is no way the neuro would provide them :roll:

We have already submitted the basic info to Kate.

Hi solney. I was just offered these dates last night so I don't know how long it will take to get a reply. I emailed back accepting this date. I'm not sure if Kate will confirm or not. I know what you mean about not having the time to wait. Hubby is (my assessment) about 6.5 on the EDSS scale and ob...
