I no longer feel anything for anybody else. i used to be a real sympathiser, and a good person. now its like nothing feels like anything anymore. i've had to quit singing partly because of this(mostly cause its too physical) it just doesnt feel the same. and my sister got raped a little while ago he also beat her. if i was my old self i would have been there more for her, and the rapist propably would probably be missing a ball or two right now. but im so num and tired i simply cant be concerned for other people. i know its probably pretty common with this illness. or is it?

I also have a few medical questions. Ive been sick for 1,5 years now. I got my bacteria from bed bugs, tested positive for rmsf or rickettsia what ever u wanna call it. i havent gotten the apropriate lyme tests done cause they only do the basic antiserum here in my country(finland). the test was negative for lyme, but the doctor said rickettsia is pretty much the same as borrelia. he gave me 6 months of doxy. has anyone else here been only infected with rmsf and how did u treat it? i was also positive for mycoplasma but it was a igg result.

also is it important to fix thyroid functioning with replasement hormones? or will they fix themselves after the bugs are dead? i have both high tsh and t4v but they r almost in range both of them. both being high i believe indicates the leak is in the brain, so thats were the critters are prob. having their feist. witch would make sense bcause my symptoms are partly neurological. The scariest and most debilitating symptoms are in my heart though.

this site has been a great help so far. im still learning. but the picture of what i haveto do in order to get well is starting to emerge.

thats it. fanks [Smile]

Hi - breaking this up for easier reading for many here.

I think it's ok to focus on your own needs for the time being -

Hm - how do you know you got this from bedbugs? Just curious -

Others will be along to answer more of your questions -
