Full moon and a new symptom

Hi everyone. Yesterday I had a horrible day, I had pain in my arm and it got so stiff I could hardly bend it.

Then at 9:30 I was exhausted and headed into bed an hour earlier than my usual bedtime.

I was then hit with more migrating pain, heart pounding out my chest, gasping for air.. . And a new symptom for me muscle twitching in my leg. I've had a bit in my fingers before but this was like a million little twitches all at once. And I could also feel my heart beating on my elbow?! Maybe it was twitching there too. I got up and took a quarter of a nerve pill I was such a mess.

Anyway I realized this morning it is a full moon April 22, I'm also due to get my time of the month the same day so I think I got a flare from that.

I'm sure most of you know about it already but I thought I'd give people a heads up in case anyone else is experiencing an increase in symptoms.

I always have a flare of symptoms around my time of the month! I had ok days Monday-Wednesday of this week but I'm feeling yucky today :(
It might be bc if the full moon. Thanks for mentioning that.

I know guys...the full moon has been kicking my butt the last few days too! Super emotional, symptoms going wacko...and right there with ya sweetpeaisme-Ive literally found myself saying to my hubby those same words many times the last few days.. "I HATE IT, I HATE IT, and its just not fair:(!!...having total meltdowns...ughh full moon go away now.


Oh and apparently Evianangel, Ive been reading that somehow the lyme gets us to where our menstrual cycle ends up cycling WITH the full moon cycles! Im on mine right now too!! Its like...really?!! what gives.

.....*This too shall pass, this too shall pass..


On a positive note: I remember Traveler posting about the full moon how when she knew she was getting better that she noticed she wasnt flaring with the full moons cycles. This is so true. When I was in a good place back in the fall before I relapsed I noticed I hadnt been flaring with the full moons! It was awesome complete bliss compared to how Im feeling now thats for sure. What was really weird was I wasnt even getting the fibrocystic breasts a week before my period either for like 3 months straight...that really showed something good was going on as I had that for a long time and chalked it up to normal female hormone menstrual stuff when really I now think that is from lyme or a co too! cray cray I tell ya.
