I was a very energetic, athletic, busy mom of 2 young boys, 5 & 8 years old. I started feeling really sore everywhere, so I would get steroid shots in shoulders and elbow so I could make it through family vacations, and then just life. My brain started getting horrible! Headaches like never before, face recognition sucked, words,,gone?
I went to 13 doctors and years later, my OBGYN golfed with another one that had "lyme d." So I went into this man's office and he took one look at me and said yep! You definitely have lyme d. but for insurance reasons let's run these tests...
Within a year or so I then met a mom and daughter at my great friend's wedding. They too had lyme d. but were on the recovering end. They sang praises of Doc!!! I called immediately and got on their waiting list. 18 months or so, I was in! I was so sick and confused my mom had to take me. I net THE DOC that I'd heard so much about! And I too sing the praises of him, but he's in NY and I'm in Ohio. No insurance coverage:(((
I had to look for a more local LLD:(((
So here I am years later, and once again, need to find a Lyme Literate Doctor.
I still have symptoms, however, I AM so much better that I was!!! Now I'm anxious to find another LLD hopefully somewhere near me, in Athens, Ohio.
I want desperately to FEEL like MY OLD SELF and not just catch glimpses of what used to be!!!!
