Morning,
I need to have leg surgery due to a vein issue. It's not a life issue but needs to be taken care of.

My insurance will pay for it but I've heard that the lyme might get worse due to the surgery.

Is this true. I don't need all the progress I've made be undone due to the surgery.

Please advise.

Ugh... just be sure to tell them you don't want any steroids. They love to use them!!!

Now in some cases, you HAVE to be given a certain amount due to the extra stress you will be under from the surgery.

Keep your diet healthy and do anything you can think of to detox following the surgery.

Good luck and let us know when it's scheduled!
