Sitting here spending time with my 2 young girls worrying about how much longer I'll be able to be here for them. I feel so sick, my work has no heat and it is making me sicker, but I have to go. I'm...
For the past week I have had on and off spasms that are felt in the left flank area and directly under left ribcage. These are not separate spasms, it is felt in both places at the same time and they...
Teragram: I'm not sure. But I was told mamy people test positive for the western blot and have absolutely no symptoms so I had questioned it's accuracy. Also if lyme can hide and temporarily make us...
So basically, July 2013 I had a downpour of symptoms hit me all at once. For the first month I was practicality bedbound. I saw numerous doctors and specialists whom could find nothing wrong with me....
Found some doxycycline from before, going to start taking it again. Also found samento and banderol from before but I never actually took any of it before so I don't know much about it. Is samento...
My lyme symptoms have recently come back strong and I can not afford to go back to my LLMD for more antibiotics. (I live is Missouri and insurance does not cover it here.) I need to know the safest...
It is not painful but I can tell when it's about to happen right before it does. It is just really bothersome. I also wanted to ask does anyone else have a lot of muscle twitches? I get them all the...
This happens usually when laying down or at the same time my stomach growels. It only lasts a couple seconds. Does anyone else get this or know what it is? My cousin also has Fibromyalgia and gets...
Thanks for the advice! Luvzminus, could you possibly share some of your other gastritis symptoms?? Also do you take any medication for it? Does it ever go away?...
For the past 8 months I have been experiencing a weird sensation when my stomach is empty or I haven't eaten in a good period of time. I don't know how to explain the feeling. It is not hunger and is...
This didn't start until the same time as all the other lyme symptoms started. It happened at first when I would be laying down but now I also notice it always happens when my stomache growels or when...
Also where do you get Teasel and how do you take it?...
What does the lemon water do?...
I'm so tired of thinking about lyme! I'm worried that I am not reading enough on it and not doing everything I should be doing. Right now I'm just doing twice a day doxy. I don't feel too bad besides...
I was anemic during both of my pregnancies and was told I was slightly anemic as one point at the beginning of my lyme journey but no one has told me that since. And I had SEVERAL blood tests lol....
Thanks! I stopped taking the aspirin :) Do you think if I am bruising so badly like this that I should just stop taking it all together?...
Traveler-I guess I mean that it is bigger than "a usual" bruise. In other words it looks like it would be the result from a pretty hard hit that I would surely remember. Opugirl-Thanks for all the...
I would but I don't have insurance anymore :(...
Last night my upper thigh was hurting when I walked. I figured it was just a muscle. But then this morning when I woke up there is a HUGE purple circle in that spot. Similar to a bruise but bigger...
I have lines like that! I think mine are stretch marks but who knows!!! Lol. How do u tell the difference?...
Welcome Carrie! I feel that I can relate to you so well! Thinking you may have lyme is scary but I must say not as scary as some of the many other illnesses I have come across while googling my...
I am so so sorry to hear this! I will say a prayer for your friend and hope for a miracle! Thanks for the reminder that we need to be greatful for every single day we have. And remember that we could...
Since starting my antibiotics and taking everything the way I am supposed to I havn't noticed any horible changes or any super positive changes either. The only big thing is that I am twitching 20x...
I'm so sorry to hear that! I hope he gets better real soon! What kind of neuro issues is he having? Sorry I'm not able to answer your question. I don't know much about how the testing all works. I...
My brain just feels like its not functioning right. My head hurts slightly and I feel a lot of pressure in my eyes and my head just feels like it's all fogged up. Kinda like I'm not fully counsious...
Does anyone know if lyme decreases life expectancy? Having a paranoid moment. Also is dying due to lyme rare?? :shakehead:...
I really don't want to offend anyone by this. This is just something I am seriously worried about. How do we know that we really have lyme if people with no symptoms have positive lyme tests? How do...
So I have been having what I guess is a muscle spasm for 6 hours now in the same spot, the palm of my hand. Is this going to do any damage? Kinda worried. P.S. To those waiting to know, I'm not...
Opugirl- I think I remember you saying u had vien issues once before a while back. What kind of issues do u have?...
Garden Peace- Thanks for the reply! I am going to take my third at bedtime! And that's what I am hoping, that my cycle is a little off! :)...
Traveler- Do you think it is possible that the pain always being where a vien is located is just a coincidence? The weird thing about these pains is that they are not really in joints or muscles but...
My probiotics bottle says to take 3 times daily. Do I still take them 3 times a day along with antibiotics twice a day? If so then I just need to spread them apart by 2 hrs right? I just want to be...
Thanks much for the input and encouragement!! I'm going to start taking everything as I am supposed to. Today was horrible. So that plus ur comment is a big push in the right direction I think....
Thanks lymerunner! That makes me feel sooo much better. Are her babies fine?...
I actually started to feel much better before starting actual treatment. Now I am on antibiotics and havn't seen a huge change. Then again so far I have not been the best at taking them when or as...
Maybe part of it is all the other sickness going around during winter on top of everything else making things worse. I feel horrible in heat and in cold. Anything not in my confortable range makes me...
I have the spots/bumps on my arms. I never asked about it because I previously thought it was a side effect from the birth control I was on. But I am not on it anymore and I still have them.. hmmm...
I just noticed that I am 6 days late.. I am fearing that I might be pregnant! Although I have been trying very hard to prevent this, this month it is possible. I am very scared. If I am will I have...
To me it does sound like it. What exactly did u do? Maybe you can help us all? :) Everyone here is great and a lot more educated than myself on this. I'm sure they will have some great ideas for you...
And kinda hurt. What would make this happen? Here comes being paranoid again......
Mine were both positive but I am curious of the difference?...
Hey everyone! I havn't been on here lately due to the fact that I have been trying not to think about all the stuff going on with me... My lyme test from the llmd came back last week tho and both...
What do u think would be safest for a blood thinner? Lol...
Is Japanese Knotweed a blood thinner?...
That's my biggest fear is a blood clot. I wish there was some way to post a picture on here so I could show you what I look like. It's the worst in my legs but is also pretty bad in my arms, breasts...
