RE: When Life gives you Lyme, make a Lymonade!

in #life6 years ago

It is a particularly difficult illness to deal with and does take much work.

I went through a similar time when I was sick - not having the support of friends or family in the real sense can be very depressing. It really forces you to find strength you never knew you had at a time when you don't feel very strong. But you are strong and look at what you accomplished 'for yourself'!

Keep the faith and keep going @lymepoet

My husband had lyme (it didn't get so heavily buried in his body or at least we've not seen any further progression of symptoms) and my youngest son is being watched as he has some flags on his bloodwork (lyme is so elusive) but our functional medical doctor feels that even if it does turn out to be lyme, it can be taken care of with certain serious protocols. She specializes in biofilms and lyme (among other things).

I hope you can get to the other side of this and one day be free of the lyme.

I am thrilled to hear that you have a Lyme specialist helping you out and that your husband feels good. The tests for Lyme are unreliable. Did your son got bitten by a tick or you think he might have contracted it during the pregnancy, if you don't mind me asking?

yes, he did get bitten a couple of times....lots of ticks around here. Kind of makes you paranoid because you don't even have to be outside - I've occasionally found them lurking inside the house.

My son didn't have the 'rash' but he does have a lot of peculiar symptoms and seems to have a problem with copper metabolism

Of course,some of this mimics 'biofilms' too And yes, the tests for lyme are very unreliable

Crazy that this isn't more exact
