Check out the link below for the newest
 movie / documentary about Lyme Disease.

This documentary is about producer Timothy Grey's sister and her battle with Lyme disease.  It documents all the mis-diagnosis she goes through, how the disease debilitates her and finally her death.  One Dr. even told her when they didn't know what was wrong "everybody dies".
