I understand how you all feel, it is a roller coaster event dealing with Lyme and Co.
We do good and feel like we are on top of this fight and then in an instance these stealth pathogens bring us down to stark reality again.
I try to be grateful for every step forward I make in this battle, I tell myself that I am so much better than when I first started treatment 8 months ago.
It was living hell and one of the scariest times I ever have faced.
I am sorry that any of us have to deal with this.
When you are feeling down and suffering look up success stories here, reach out like you just did, look back ....any progress, even the smallest ones are good thing.
Have Hopeful, good thoughts, tell yourself...I am not alone, I am treating and trying my best to overcome this,I have the best of the best members here to support me. We will figure this out.
Another thing. More and more people, news, TV shows are talking about the severity of tick Borne diseases this year. It unfortunate that more are getting ill from Lyme and Co. But let's hope this coverage makes an impact.
Some where out there, is a researcher, Bacteriologist, Chemist, doctor, nurse, lab tech or just an every day extraordinary human being that is going to figure this out.
I for one am looking forward to that day. Not just for me...but for all of us.
Hang in there guys...and I sincerely hope your good days keep growing and the bad days fade completely away.
Take care. Jo
