Visit with my Lyme Specialist

Wed. Feb 24th, we drove to see our Lyme Specialist in CT.
I was feeling much better and had in my mind that maybe, just maybe I would be getting of the meds. Not the case.
Dr. Sabovic went over everything, what symptoms do I still have? The whole list.....even though I feel 80% better than when I was first diagnosed we have a while to go yet. A new round of antibiotics, oh no, Doxy, so I have to be extremely carefull in the sunshine!
The symptoms that I still experience were lower back pain, hip pain, thigh aches and knee pain, upper back shoulder stiffness, pain, creepy crawly in my left shoulder, and a vibration in my right thigh. Although these symtoms are drastically reduced from when I first started treatment it still means Lyme is still there. I will be on some new supplements to help fight Lyme that may be encased in biofilm. If you read up on lyme you will understand. Antibiotics alone will not penetrate the biofilm so the supplements weaken the biofilm and allow the antibiotic to get inside.

So looks like another 2 months on so on this medicine (as my job allows) since I work in the sun a lot at the Greenhouse. Then maybe 2 weeks on and 2 weeks off. We will test in 2 months for Lyme again and follow that up when all said and done for 2 years to make sure it is all gone.

Though i am depressed that I still have awhile to go, I do feel much better.
Its hard to complain when I see people who are so disabled by Lyme and struggle daily to fight this horrific disease.
God bless you all. You are in my prayers.

Feeling Better Again Round 2

Thats what it feels like, rounds in a boxing match. One minute your up, the next your down, not in such a short time of course but you can get what I mean.

I am feeling so much better, More energy, no depression, minimal pain. I actually went kayaking for about 2 hours yesterday, up river and then down. Was awesome, haven't done that in quite sometime. Now if I could only feel up to rock climbing I would be there. Maybe next spring!!

So things are looking up again. I am able to type better, think better and even spell better today. Its just good to feel like you can tackle anything.
