Lyme-literate medical doctor

So true! I get so angry when I hear this stuff. Someone tried to correct me and say “actually it’s Lymes disease, get it right” and I just stood there dumbfounded like what am I supposed to say to that because this person doesn’t have to disease but apparently thinks she knows more about it than a person who does have it, aka me.

Some symptoms of Lyme disease. This is just a few of many many symptoms. Don’t ignore your symptoms and don’t let doctors bully you into believe something not true!! I had to push for 30 minutes just to get tested for Lyme. Years ago, doctors just told me I had growing pains and wrote it off as nothing. It isn’t nothing. It is very serious. Spread the word, find the cure!!

Some more facts about Lyme Disease. The only way to spread the word is to give facts and our own stories. I was diagnosed a little more than a year ago, but I’ve had Lyme for about 7-8 years and was infected twice. Doctors told me it was just growing pains, but I knew it wasn’t because growing pains are constant for 8 years. It started with just pain in my right knee, then I got infected again (we think) and it was in my right hip and my jaw and I also had neurological symptoms. My mom and I went to many doctors and counselors because she thought I had a personality disorder. We had to beg my doctor to test me for Lyme. She finally did and it can back positive. We went to a LLMD and she gave me a whole bunch of stuff to take. I’ve also been seeing a kinesiologist and she has been helping me get bacteria and toxins out of my body as well. I never saw a tick on me or a rash. This is just the shortened version of a very very long story, but it’s too long to post everything in one post. Spread the word, share your stories, find the cure!

In my quest to spread awareness of Lyme Disease, I came across this funny yet upsetting picture. I find it funny because it’s true but upsetting for the same reason. Right after I was diagnosed, I was taking 15 pills in the morning along with 3 detoxes and probiotic powder, 3 pills at lunch time, and 11 pills at night. There are so many more people out there who have it worse than me, but I wanted to share that as I don’t have it as bad as other people, but I still had to take so much medication and I still do.
