Wish me luck today and tomorrow!

Hi everyone, I hope all is well. Wish me luck and send blessings my way. I'm at work (still waiting for this so called blizzard to hit). But I applied for FMLA (Family Medical Leave Act) and my doctor was awesome atfilling out the paper work. If approved I will get a day off a week for the next three months. Very needed so I can truly recover and beat Lyme with some rest! 5 days a week and tending to my son is a lot. If they don;t grant my leave then I will just have to take off when I need it (which is every week) lol.

Lastly I'm going to see an herbalist/specialist tomorrow. She knows her Lyme! I love my doctor but needed another look at what's going on and wanted to add in herbs the right way :)

So wish me well! I'm encouraged (despite brain fog and everything else).

Now time to walk across the building somehow (with the Grace of God) and sit in this 30 minute mtg. Hoping for positive results!

Stay tuned!

 

Thank you WellBeautifulSpirit! Mtg went well and my doctor just has to clarify a couple of questions and then it's approved!!!! A day week until the end of May! Thank God! I will be able to truly rest!

I even made it to the other side of the bldg without swaying like a skyscraper lol.

Yes I found the herbalist through opugirl! She is also a practitioner. I think between her and my doctor we can tackle this lyme/babs/bart even more.

I'm feeling hopeful today...that's pretty much how I felt since Sunday!

Stay tuned for the report on the herbalist tomorrow!

Thanks Nan!!!! I appreciate it :) if it weren't for this forum I wouldn't have a new herbalist/specialist and also know what to ask my doctor. I'm going to chat with her about a couple of other IV treatments that are useful for the neuro piece and muscles. I already sent the herbalist everything (my labs, MRI report, list of supplements, etc)!

So it's on like popcorn now!

Thanks TickledPink!!!!!

I had a decent day and a decent apointment today Wryter so I will push those positive vibes your way! They are bound to pick up some strength with this storm a brewing. Its windy here in DE!

I wish you the best of luck!!!
You seem to have found the right way!

Let us know how it goes!

Hi everyone! Despite a bad neuro Herx I drove 45 minutes to the herbalist! She was caring, on point and fantastic! She's also a nutritionist and I left feeling great about my health team! When I'm less anxious I will write more (hate the anxiety symptom)!

She combined some herbs (powder) and the cost was not bad at all! It won't taste great but will greatly assist inflammation, recovery, brain power, cerebrovascular issues, intestinal stuff and fine tune my immune system!

I will take 5 grams 2x a day. She agreed with my doctor about how inflamed my body is. I told her I feel it! In about a month between my IV treatments, supplements and herbs we will see where I am so we can add a couple others.

I will also take Flaxseed Oil once a day, add more lentils and other stuff!

Anyway I need to rest and get my anxiety down before getting my son.

What a day challenging but rewarding!
