Heathersdad- I agree with you. We must find the underlying reason why some people get sick and others do not. My entire family has been bitten a zillion times by ticks. My husband tested pos. for...
I too required a trigger. I'm sure I had the Lyme way before I "hit the wall" though. My trigger was a triple whammy coming all within 6 months. A very destructive flood, my job transfer and a fight...
I had this happen my first month on Cowden/Buhner. It felt like a scab in the back of my throat....
I know for a fact that they jump from trees. I've seen and heard them. I live in the most tick infested wooded area. As I walk through the woods it sounds just like it's starting to rain onto the...
I feel for anyone that has to work and battle Lyme. Everyone's situation is different. Look for what works for you and your family. Maybe going part time would help. You'd be surprised what expenses...
I'd get more sympathy if there was the swelling to go with this debilitating joint pain. Nope, no swelling here either....
That is wonderful! Let them know that your state isn't the only one. In TN we have the same problem. There should be no reason for a MD to require a cash payment of $695 for a first visit. No...
D. Pete, we are all at a loss for the right words. We hear your pain and frustration. Don't give up...ever. You have the right combination of tenacity and helpful parents. Count those as your...
I also would like to hear what someone else knows. My understanding was also that; your immune system is what fights off illnesses. If your immune system is sluggish or compromised, the symptoms are...
I question any probiotic that doesn't need long term refrigeration (ok if out at room temp for winter shipping etc.). I would look for one that has at least 100 billion FCU....
I have an appointment with The Center for Restorative Medicine in Hendersonville, TN for July 2016.....2016!!!! I can't wait that long. Even if they bump me up into a cancellation, that might be...
Garden Peace, thank you for the reminder that gum disease is bad for the heart. This seems different than just a little blood when brushing or flossing. I have blood on my pillow in the morning,...
Girlie, that's what my DDs wanted to do to me too. Just the description was enough to put me in a panic. There is no way I could deal with anymore pain right now. I'll try the coQ10 for a year and...
I've sworn off regular doctors for a while. After the thousands spent in copays, not to mention the time and mileage. Unless I need life saving surgery or meds, I can learn more about whats wrong...
I never understood how people could have suicidal depression, until having gone through it too. Go to a funeral of a victim of suicide, and you hear the same thing...disbelief that a person could get...
My dates are fuzzy but close. I have had some minor issues (G.I., Reynolds, upper respiratory infections, etc) with my health for years before getting really ill. However, I had a strong constitution...
I've had Reynaud's for over 25 years. I've only had Lyme and co infections for the past 5-7 years. The gut thing makes a lot of sense though. I've had a lot of those issues my entire adult life....
Middle Tennessee...
You can be bitten again and get Lyme more than once. I have a cousin that lives in CT and she has had it 3 times (none long term). Each time was from a different bite. She only got the bullseye once....
