Welcome, and it's awesome you found us. This is the one place that has been here for me, supporting, directing and providing me with the info needed to further my healing.
From all you are dealing with ... if it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, etc. Sorry, but sure acts like Lyme. Once we get this clear in our brains, the journey goes a lot smoother. It is a process for each of us because this is such a tainted illness (propoganda lies) that is so denied and skewed by those in control....we can't continue to second guess ourselves with what is happening to us. Because, we do know what's happening, at least before we get further info and educate ourselves, each one of us KNOWS we are really, really ill, and this is something bigger than one could imagine. If you feel this way, then know that you are dealing with this stealth tbd.
That's the first step, so please don't get caught up in what the 'professionals' are telling you. They aren't, we are. Unless a person has this horrid illness, it's tough to understand the severity of it. ANd now, you are the professional, because only someone with this illness, like you, will know what is going on inside of the body, and it is up to US to figure out most of this, with a LOT of help from our FRIENDS, thank you HEALINGWELL FAMILY!!!!!
Your experiences are so mirrored by many of us. As you continue your path, please know we are here for support, when you need to vent, or whatever. Try not to second guess yourself. That's a big stumble many of us deal with and it really does take too much energy away from what we need to deal with.
If you 'don't do anything' I hate to say, this will not go away. Stress in our lives can cause this to explode inside the body, which sounds like what you experienced. Once this is begun, our bodies start to get depleated in the nutrients, so it's dire important to feed and strengthen the body continually. That's huge in my opinion, in getting the upper hand with the tbd treatment. Get the body stronger, and keep it strong, and then our treatments have a stronger foundation to work from. As a nurse, you know all of this, which is awesome!!
If you need that + l/co test, then IGeneX is your safer bet, but then you must deal with the dr's, and whether they will accept it, or not. I saw a local LLMD, with my IGeneX in hand, and she said Idon't have L/co but is only depressed. So, even with it in hand, depends on the dr.
Natural Lyme protocols go a long way, and have been proven to heal people from this illness. That's always an option. I guess my suggestion is mainly to not second guess yourself, especially with all the history that confirms what you KNOW.
Be the warrior you are, and education is your best friend, along with us here. :)
We know you can, and will heal.
We are doing this together.
