Lyme with three coinfections so far. Been in tx year and half. Very ill. Dr ordered all sorts of tests. Had 15 vials of blood drawn today. Discouraged. Just needed to vent, Thanks.

(((((Hi Iceskater)))))
I am so sorry to hear you are feeling discouraged.
I hope you only have good news as far as the test results are concerned.
Lyme is a real roller coaster of a ride. You can weather the ups & down because I know you are a strong person with much inner courage.
Hang in there My frined
God will not give you more than you can handle
But like someone here likes to qoute Mother Tereas" I wish He won't trust me so much"
You are a good person and I know you will make it Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
Stinks, doesn't it!? I do hope they didn't find anything more....or if they DID, that it's an easy fix!
Hang in there, OK?
PS... Congratulations for spelling "vials" correctly! I rarely see it spelled correctly around here! A+ for you

Hey Sandi,
Hang in there. This disease snuck up on both of us...and got us good.
You are very strong and I know that strenght will help you get threw this.
I hope that the blood work will be able to give even more insight into everything that is going wrong in your body.
Many hugs!!

So so sorry, the bloodletting alone kicks me butt...
Only 3, you slacker... you need to get to my level add 10 more co-infections and get to lucky number 13...
Just teasing, hey you are at the worst of it, after awhile, you don't like get over it, but you do get used to it...
Hang tuff, I know it sucks big time but we are here... Posted by valymemom (Member # 7076) on :
This stinking disease!!!!!!
Here's what keeps me hopeful: A friend's daughter was very ill/home for 9 years and gradually improved so that she could take a few college courses at the community college....now she is boarding at a college 90 miles from her home.
You are in my thoughts/prayers.....and I, too, love your doll of a skater.

Hey skater, so sorry to hear you are not progressing...still w/ Dr. O? Is this the one that ordered all the bloodwork? I know the drive alone must be hard on you.
Thinking of you, love the skater pic.

Hope you can see and hear this for some peaceful meditation.
To my dear online friend Skater, I pray you will get some good news and definite answers to all that is going on with you.
Dana, you said it so eloquently the same thoughts I would have expressed especially on the Mother Teresa quote; I used to use that all the time in my former signature line!
Hang in there; we're here for you 24/7 365 ok! Hugs & kisses to you always. Bettyg Posted by iceskater (Member # 8655) on :
Thanks for all of the wonderful posts and words of encouragement.

Wow 3 coinfections - maybe this is why treatment has been so difficult. I hope knowing what you have gives your current dr a good plan of attack.
I heard you was in a car accident. I hope physical therapy helped. I was in a car accident the end of june and I have been seeing a chiropractor which has been helping me.
Spending time with my cat always helps me when I feel like things arent going the way I want or sometimes they feel like they arent going at all.
Cats just love you. And I know mine knows when something is really wrong. He stayed by my side for two weeks or so after the car accident.
His angelic little face just takes me away from all the frustration and weight of waiting and just makes me smile and my heart light. I know you have two cats and I am sure you know what I mean.
Lymetoo - she was a nurse so she has an unfair advantage on the spelling of vials. Me I am lucky I can spell my name
I hope things start to improve soon. You have been through too much already.
Best wishes
