Diagnosed less than two months ago. Felt pain for three years but thought it was years of marathons, athletics,trekking, etc.
Thought if I could just fix my knees and hips, maybe I could run again. Knee specialist said my movements were jereky and sent me to a rheu/ID doc. He informed me I was positive for Lyme.
Herx knocked me on my butt. Brain is fogged.
I am seeing a LLMD and he has changed my meds. I have good days and bad days. I want to trust him.
This is all changing who I am so quickly...or at least who I thought I was.
2009 will be my year to re-define myself and pay attention to the stress in my life.
I lead over 500 health and pe teachers and preach wellness every day. I need to take a long look in the mirror.
I need to pay attention to all those parents who call me for waivers/modifications/accomodations for their children who are sick and for years I couldn't understand what the problem was/is.
I can help lessen the load for so many out there. Karma is real. I want to do what's right with what I have learned. This is only the beginning...in so may ways. God Bless You All!

Happy New Year right back at you!!!
Had to do some redefining myself.
Use to be super active too but now am struggling with walking 3 miles 3 times a week (for stress relief).
I'm in the Walker/Hiker/Exercise Club here in General and that helps motivate me. Check it out if you need some motivation.
