The Impatience of Having Lyme

Great article I should have found a year ago!

When I went to the doctor for depression and anxiety, this is basically what she said. The first thing she said was, "this is not a cold and you will not get well fast." She tried to get me to be comfortable with healing for an extended period of time.

Then each and every drop of my tinctures were ingested with the mental vision of them going into my body and healing damaged parts, attacking bad things and making places inhospitable.

Believe bluelyme, believe. I did not let any thoughts of forever, chronic or long term or whatever into my brain. I cancelled them and sent them to the basement to be fired in the furnace.

You will heal!

I'm at a point where the thought of being completely healthy is such a far off thing, if not an impossibility, that I'm only concerned with maintaining what level of health I have while, of course, pushing for as much as I can get.

Though, the word "cured" does not come to mind anymore. The way things are right now, I don't ever see myself not being affected by the infections to some degree.

Even if/when I'm able to see a literate physician, my health puzzle is so scattered and complex that it'd be a struggle for me to be able to say, "okay, I'm all better now."

For me to see being cured as a possibility, it's going to take a drastic change in the way the medical community responds to TBI and then an appropriate reevaluation of the tests, treatments, etc.

Though, acceptance is just the first step in that process, right? Waiting on the drug companies to come up with something different could take years as well.

I try to be positive, of course. I do think that it will happen, eventually. But, looking at it realistically, it's going to take awhile, which is a negative thing.

Anyway, as far as how I feel about being sick, I stress.. I worry.. yeah. Not as much as I used to though.

I'm confident I'm going to get cancer or something someday, then brush it off, because of my years with Lyme. "Oh, another pain or strange sensation.. okay."
