Lisa D's Update

Remember Lisa D? Recently I reconnected with Lisa to find out how things were going.

Aside from Lyme Disease, Lisa's mother in law was re-diagnosed with a brain tumor. She spent most of the year with her. She took a turn for the worse and at the end of October she passed away. Please keep Lisa in your thoughts and prayers during this time.

At the end of 2009, Lisa and her husband saw their Lyme doctor. Her husband is doing much better. Lisa has also improved, but they are both still on their Lyme medications for at least another 6 months. Lisa has now been on them for a year straight. Lisa's doctor believes there is something else going on, but will test for that later.

Lisa wants everyone to know that she is praying for everyone that has Lyme, especially the young children that have been denied their childhood. She prays that God will make this a better year for all. In our healing and in our sickness, she says, "We need for the world to stop and look around, see those in pain and suffering and think of them."

It was my hope when I started this blog that we could reach out to others with Lyme Disease to show an outpouring of love and prayer. Please continue to pray for Lisa and her family.

Johnny Update

Remember Johnny?

I recently reconnected with him to find out how he's been doing. Johnny no longer feels as if he's dying all the time. His dizziness has also improved. He has had so many things that have cleared up, but he is no where near like he was prior to getting Lyme Disease.

John's sleeping patterns are still not normal. He still has neurological damage which includes muscle twitching, spasms and vibrations. These things aren't near as severe as they were a year ago, but they are still there. Something that is extremely frustrating for John is that his brain function is horrible. He has difficulty completing sentences and spelling without mistakes.

Overall, he experiences functionality and is able to walk without pain. Currently, John is on a 5 week drug holiday. He is hoping for the best with no relapse. He desires your prayers for improvement. He believes a positive attitude is key to recovery, but that is easier said than done.

If you would like to submit a prayer for John, please leave a comment for him to read.

My photo
I am living my life. I've treated Lyme, Bartonella, Candida and Heavy Metal Poisoning. My symptoms were drastically improved after 2 years of treatment. I did well for a year or two and then started having a backslide in August of 2011. I've been seeing my doctor since March 1 2007. I have severe D defiency, but my Iron levels are now normal (after Iron infusions). I'm treating with oral antibiotics currently for Lyme, Bartonella and Babesia. I'm living life as full as I can with the skills that I have and the love I receive. My recent labs showed a very weak immune system and low Cortisol. So we're fighting to bring that back up. Some therapies I'm using are IV Vitamin C, HBOT treatments and herbal remedies plus yeast fighting medicines along with medicines to boost cortisol levels. I've not used the HBOT in a while, but I found it helpful. I'm on a load of oral antibiotics again because the herbal remedies alone were not effective enough. Living life as full as I can with the skills that I have and the love I receive!
