Hi all,
Been a couple of years (at least) since I've been here. Still doing great (I think it's about 20 years that I'm healed), still detox (detox baths, etc.).
I took care of my elderly mom (she had Alzheimer's/dementia) for about 12 years and she passed at the age of 98 about 1-1/2 years ago. At first, I was very upset and joined a grief support group and then I adjusted to living alone.
I have a dog (doxiepoo) that I love very much for about 3 years and he's a great companion.
For newbies: I went 5 years undiagnosed after seeing several doctors. I became so frustrated that I did my own research and all my symptoms matched ehrlichia. I found a specialist I knew from my past who performed dark field microscopy, and I watched my own spirochetes on the screen. Went to another doctor who sent my blood to IgeneX and sure enough I was super positive for lyme and ehrlichia.
Started taking doxy which made me sicker so I did more research and after trying other alternative herbs I ended up using Dr. Jernigan's protocol. I detoxed like crazy, got rid of my high levels of ammonia, and I was completely healed within a year. Yes, I divorced my husband because he caused too much stress.
As most know stress is detrimental to any chronic illness.
I hope everyone finds their own healing journey. Just remember what works for one person may not work for another.
Cheers!
Denise

Hope you are doing well. Now that I'm older (almost 70, wow!), I go to bone builder classes to prevent osteoporosis. Also exercise at home using weights.
I need to update my blog as it's been a few years.
To everyone else, please don't lose hope in healing. I know many that have healed for a long time now.

Hello there, Deja, I wish more people would come back once in a while.
( Of course, sometimes it takes forever just to get this thing to open up on a computer or a phone.)
**In "remission " / "Cured" (?) for 8 years.** Initial lyme symptoms late 80's, then again with bullseye early 90's. ABX 2014 - 2016. Now: Healing / Rebuilding / fixing muscle damage and still improving nutrition and immune via anti- cytokine diet. 25 years of Hashimoto is now improving and Thyroid Nodule dissolved too. Other autoimmune issues though.

Hi astro, yeah, I wish more people would come back too. Especially the ones that have been healed for awhile.
Didn't Andy say from The Shawshank Redemption "Remember Red, hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies".
People who are not feeling well no matter what chronic illness they have need hope. I always believed the mind is a powerful tool.
Stay well!
