Warning: Full Cold Moon in four days

December 13th is a Full 'Cold' Moon. Full moons impact us four days before and four days following.

I haven't had symptoms in about two weeks and today the tips of my fingers felt odd, a mild twinge of long-bone pain on right shin, and a twinge of pain in right hip (that's new) and a weird headache (red sage?).

It also got extra cold today. I then wondered if the new moon was soon.

Extra detoxing everyone.

It's cold here. Snowing all day today...

I went out an shoveled the driveway early afternoon...and it's covered again.

I'm going to go for a warm epsom salt bath...just can't get rid of this chilly feeling.

july - my strength on my bad side has come back quite a bit.


...and I don't have fatigue issues. But what I don't have in fatigue, I make up for in pain.


But, my pulse was 100 when I got him from the shoveling. That never would be the case pre-lyme when I was in good shape. I think it's not lack of exercise..but maybe my POTS.

Thanks for posting! I always forget about the moon (even though it's on my calendar at work, literally staring me in the face every day! hahaha). I'm not ready for snow...but I did just receive my package of a new winter coat, fuzzy socks, and snow boots! AND, I didn't mistakenly order 2 of everything like I've been doing lately! LOL.

Look, Pmm!! Improvements!! LOL!! You didn't order 2 of everything!!

Sorry to tease a bit, but I used to do that too!

No apologies necessary! I like good natured teasing
On a positive note, i got some of my christmas shopping done hahaha

Anyone react to the new moon as well - more so than the full moon? I've been curious, but was waiting on one of these posts to comment on it. I feel terrible around the new moon. The full moon might affect me as well, but nowhere near as much as the former. I definitely FEEL the new moon.

Speaking of snow, it's coming down hard here! Went in to work, hardly nothing on the ground, and then my car was covered when I came out to go to lunch. I almost fell down in some slush too. Fun stuff.

It's real pretty to look at, though. It's just the, you know, shoveling.. freezing your butt off... that's the pain.

The moon always had a big effect even before lymethats why a feel very off. The last full moon was intense!

Might have been me, Trav.

I've been feeling kind of meh lately, though. I am not sure if that's the full moon, or if it's just a coincidence. I normally don't really feel noticeably different around the fulls.

Hm.

Anyway, love you guys! :D

Just trying to stay afloat over here, gotta make it to shore!

No, not yet. I've got a cold bug...first one since Lyme hit me 3 1/2 years ago. So I'm already trying to sort out how much of this misery is from my cold...or from the Rifampin - doing the 600 shot once daily (instead of 300 bid)
Gotta wait a few days until my cold symptoms are better...and stop the Rifampin...then give the Mepron a whirl.

So you've got the pain, sorry to hear - I know how it wears on you day in and day out......

I have been so sick today! I woke up with a wierd headache and have been achey and sick to my stomach. I totally forgot about the full moon.

I usually react more 3 days before the full moon as apposed to the day of. I never seem to react to the new moon. I wonder what causes the reactions and why some react to the new moon but not the full moon?

I really had hoped I would feel better this winter because summer was definitely better, but so far it has been pretty hard. Sounds like the same for everyone else! We had 10 inches of snow last sunday and then today probably 3-4 inches, Ughhh!

Ohhh okay, I was wondering if you started the Mepron or not but I gotcha, that def makes sense to wait for the cold to pass before taking on something new.
On the bright side, lets hope its a *good* sign that your immune system is starting to get back on the right track since you even HAVE a cold this year!

I hope you feel better soon! I havent had a cold in a few years either but I remember how bad it sucked being sick ON TOP of already being sick w/stupid lyme&co.


Again, I hope you feel better real soon...you will be in my thoughts & prayers <3


Warm Regards (<--literally, BRRRRR! ;-)

Thanks, Courtney!
I will definitely post when I try the Mepron.

Me too Trav,

Sorry the month has been so stressful. I hope that now that the hospital stay is behind you and your husband is healing that you can rest a bit more.

Hiding out and staying quiet. Physically not too terrible but dealing with my husband and son has been God awful. Son is just feeling really bad and overly emotional (moon) and husband and I bickering over every single thing. It's like he gets super grouchy during it. I think he feels bad from lyme/gut and isn't aware enough to believe how his emotions are impacted.

Girlie, sorry you have a cold on top of Lyme. Any chance it's a big herx or something? Maybe a cold is more exciting.
