wondering about a few things...

Hi All,
I have used the search feature her & did not find anything to shed any light on a few weird sx.

I have recently been under quite a bit of stress, & when I finally made it home, I drank a whole bunch of water (3 -4 quarts daily) with lemon juice. Then two days in a row, the inside of my mouth, right in front of my bottom teeth, peeled a large area of skin - anyone have any ideas?

I'm not under the care of a LLMD, as mine recently passed away (Dr. M. in Mo.). I don't think I will be able to see another one for quite a while, as they are all 5 - 7 hr drives just to get there!! Then I have to drive back
Not something I can do any more.

Another thing is persistent tendonitis. Anyone know anything about this & possible connection with TBI's?

Before my LLMD passed away, he had put me on a large dose of mino - 100 mg 2x/day. Would that have been a tx for co's? He dxed me with Masters' Disease (AKA STARI), & lately I test pos. for RMSF & LD.

My current doc is Lyme friendly only, but he recently (maybe 2 months ago) dxed me with chronic LD. HE also is willing to read most anything I bring to him about LD. Although, I will be 'on my own' for figuring out any tx.

Anyway, anyone have even any suggestions?

Thanks in advance~

Hi +Lyme,
I am not sure where you got the idea that I was quite knowledgeable!!! I still have waaay too many unanswered questions. But thank you for that compliment.
I have been trying to learn everything I can about TBI's for the last 10 yrs. Although communicating it has become harder & harder. =(
I have never had Cipro. For some reason I am still able to remember what abx I have taken - good thing too as I am VERY allergic to Penn. Keflex has not a choice for me either, as I react badly.

The only abx I have had in the last 10 years has been doxy & the Mino.

My 'boat' has been 'rocked' for many reasons at this point. I've had my appendix & gall bladder removed, as well as female parts. I am concerned of "what's next" like a lot of people here on HW.

I hope you thoroughly enjoyed your night off & your MEAT!!! I get that way every once in a great while. =)

I look forward to having more conversations with you. I promise to watch my yahoo accnt, if you would like to email me there, but I spend a whole lot more time in gmail.

If you would rather not - I understand & will be happy to have these conversation here on HW.

BTW -thanks again for responding & for the compliments.

Hi +Lyme =)
Thanks for the invite to email you! I will send you an email, just so that you also have my email addy. You can email me anytime you need to unload, or have a ? .

I know what you mean about writing yourself into an answer you seek! I seem to do that regularly!! B/C of the need for concentration when writing, it really helps when needing to focus my brain on one subject. My thoughts can get pretty scattered sometimes. =( And, although I might write a long email (or post) - it never happens fast!!!

So you're still about to work!! Good for you!! I had to quit working back in 1988. I tried to go back to work a few times over the yrs, but for each month I managed to struggle through, my body insisted on being bed ridden for a month. I figured I was on the losing end of that idea!! So I quit trying to work outside the home.

Thanks again!!!
