The Purrfect Cup

Oh dear! I’m so sorry! Just what you need…tra la la la la you have lyme disease…and a Happy Holidays to you…blech!
But you are in your right mind and HERE! With a good attitude to begin this whole thing with. Don’t forget to come to this place to complain any time you want to! I for one am all ears! I have a disease that has no cure, so I get what that’s like!

Sorry to hear about the Lyme Disease but glad that you found out about it early.

@Bonnie I’m just happy I’m not nuts as it explains why I’ve been feeling poorly for a few months now. I’m not sure what’s next besides a call to my regular doc Monday. I was in the ER last Monday for massive headache/numbness on left side of face/left arm. I guess the ER doc was pretty smart to run a test for Lyme Disease! I forgot about that test until the ER called this morning. I’m sorry to hear you’ve got something that has no cure. :(

@Butiki well the nurse thinks I may have had it for a bit of time considering the symptoms. But we’ll see when they retest after the course of antibiotics. Thankfully I have a lot of your yummy tea to get me through!!

I echo Stacy’s sentiments. Hopefully you’ll start feeling better once you get through the anitbiotics.

It feels odd to “like” this post, but I’m glad that you have a diagnosis and a doctor who’s starting you on the right medication. Praying that the antibiotics do their job and you are on the mend soon.

Thanks guys! :)

I hope the antibiotics work for you. Sending positive vibes your way.

Thanks much! I’m keeping positive too. But the hubbins keeps telling me to know my limits. Apparently he’s been googling when I wasn’t looking. My only plans for the rest of the day are: NaNoWriMo, more TEA, some TV, and chinese food that the hubbins suggested I order before he goes out with the boys. I lucked out there!

Ah yes rest. With your symptoms you must have been scared that it was your heart! What a relief that this is something that you will be able to treat! Don’t worry about me, fibromyalgia is what I have to live with. No cure. Not the worse thing though.
Your hub is right, this is something that I believe requires some rest. (and tea!)

ohmygoodness, that’s not a fun disease to have, not fun at all. SO glad you found out what it is and that it’s treatable

@Bonnie – Yes, we both thought I was having a stroke or heart attack. At the time they just sent me home with a new migraine diagnosis (as the head pain was in a new spot, back of the head into the neck with no light trouble/sound). I recall they told me they were doing a test for LD, but I forgot until they called today.

It does explain why I’ve been tired for weeks, why I got the flu so bad, and some other things. No fun. My mom has fibromyalgia, so I know what you are going through. {{hugs}} Now on to the tea and rest.

@Indigobloom – yes hoping the antibiotics do their thing.

I hope the antibiotics are doing their stuff :D and that you feel better. I don’t remember much about Lyme Disease or Fibromyalgia… but I’ll send good thoughts out to both of you :D

oh and complain away sometimes just venting/ranting can help tons :D

I only have one dose in at the moment. One more at bed time tonight. Pharmacy dude said I would notice changes in maybe a week or two.

Wow, I am so sorry. Is that why you haven’t been well recently? Hope you do feel better soon.

This might be why I haven’t really felt well for a few months. But yes ER doc thinks I still had the flu, but the LD made it worse than normal.

Oh my! I do hope you will get better FAST!

Me too.

Best wishes for a fast recovery.
