Hello all, It's been a difficult year. First, my husband was found to have kidney cancer and underwent a partial removal of his kidney. Prognosis is good and he is healing well. Surgery was back in...
Thank you for the replies. I really do appreciate them. As for Sjogrens, it's one I plan to ask about on the 8th. With my dry/sore tongue and red eyes, it seems logical. Finding a dr and sticking...
Thank you, Sherrine. I have an appt on the 8th with my PCP and plan to ask to see a rheumatologist. So far, any Drs I have seen tend to assume my symptoms are brought on by anxiety. I have tried to...
Hello all and good morning. I have been battling an illness for 6 months now and at one point, my dr was sure she knew what it was. Low iron stores. Well, I was told I'd be feeling better by now but...
I'm just now starting to track my symptoms because I felt they were in some sort of cycle. I have numbness, tingling, brain fog and extreme fatigue together. Then I have rapid heartbeat and panic...
Nuts, hummus ( I suggest because if you are like me, you can eat a ton of it ) avocado, peanut butter. I'd go for calorie and nutritionally dense foods, myself. Also, have an occasional treat! Trail...
I get tingly on my left knee, pinky and left side of my face. I also notice that my left leg feels cold compared to my right side and my left foot seems just a -little- puffy sometimes....
Awww! Thank you!...
So good to meet you guys! I can't believe for some of you, this has been going on for so many years. I hope I can be as strong as so many of you!...
Nice to meet you, Springsjean! Thanks for welcome. :) Wow.. I'm so glad it was insisted you look at Lyme again. Happy to hear you are feeling well! I know stress can really compromise the immune...
Hello all, Very recently, I have begun to really count on this forum. During my struggle with whatever this is that is making me feel sick, I have had times where I feel utterly alone. I have to...
Hi again, all. Today I got my MRI results. They are totally normal.. as I figured. No signs on MS. No tumor. I now have a short list of LLMDs in Germany. Unfortunately they are two+ hours away. I'm...
That is just.. awesome. You are doing a great thing! PS - Have a blast with it and can I have your autograph? ;)...
Hi Borderlyme, My heart breaks for you. People love to tell you that your symptoms are because you are anxious but I think everyone here can agree that you are anxious BECAUSE of your symptoms. I...
Thank you everyone who replied! It's amazing what a little support and understanding can do. I was lactating yesterday, and today, it's like it never happened. This is just very strange! I called my...
Test was negative and it was the Elisa. I obviously don't trust it but hoped it would be positive so I could see if my Doctor would treat me by ILADS guidelines. I guess now I need the Western Blot...
Thank you! I know people/family/friends and yes, even doctors think I am nuts. They are all like, settle on a symptom already! Sometimes, I feel like I am in a crowded room screaming that I am sick...
So.. I am still waiting my test results from my original Dr. They should be in around the 18th or so. At that point, if it is positive, I'll be making a decision about treatment. If it's negative, I...
Hello everyone. I'm so glad to meet you. I'm an American stationed overseas in Germany and I believe that I have Lyme Disease. I am currently awaiting test results but even if they are negative, I...
