So, I cut out the liver detox for now and started a homeopathic lymph detox.  I was less achy today than I've been in a week or two.  Hopefully that trend will continue.  I'm doing ok with my antibiotics as long as I eat prior to taking them.  I also picked up a licorice tincture since it's supposed to be good adrenal support...taste awful so hopefully it's working.  I'm trying to cut back on carbs too, but I love carbs so that's really difficult. 

One big piece of good news...I started my new job Monday!  Thanking God smilewinkgrin

Congrats on the new job Pearl!

Yes, licorice is definitely an acquired taste. I try to mask it with citrus. I always ate with my antibiotics - much better for the stomach!

Thanks for the update! I'm happy for you!

That's great that you got a new job! I hope it works out well for you.

Do you dilute the licorice? That would make it easier to take. I hope you continue to feel better.

Thanks, I'm enjoying my first week so far :-)

yes, I dilute the licorice, but it's still pretty bad...I've taken worse though. Maybe next time pill form would be better, but I'll try it with citrus first. Thanks for the tip.
I do try to take my antibiotics with food, but sometimes they still cause stomach pain. Yesterday I got up after taking my lunch dose and couldn't stand up for a couple of minutes. Thankfully it eased up after a minute. I really never thought a tick bite could cause all these problems!

Congratulations on the new job, Pearl!!! turn

I hope that your stomach improves soon!! That's miserable with you feel that way.

Thanks Traveler!
My stomach seemed better today. Hopefully that will continue to be the case.

Garden Peace, I tried diluting the licorice today with a little grape juice that seemed to be better than water. I could still taste it but it was tolerable.

Congrats on the job! I love licorise root tea! Great for anxiety and shortness of breath. It's tasty :-)

TheWryter,
Thanks, the first week seemed to go well. Hopefully I'll get the rest of my training soon.

I didn't know licorice was good for those things too. I had just heard it was good for the adrenals so thought I would try it since I've been really tired lately. Maybe I should try the tea form...it's just easier to take it in pill or tincture form.

I like your quote by the way. :-)
