Aw dang Jon, I hear you. It is a hard thing to be so very ill. You can come here for sympathy, because sometimes, that is just what a person needs.
I don't have Lyme, but I have watched my daughter suffer so, and I wish I could do something to make it better.
I hope for you that you will be able to overcome today, and tomorrow will be better.
I will be thinking about you for sure.

Thank you very much! I hate to think of one of my boys having this...that scares me more than what my future might be. I have had this for two or more years (don't know as I never had the rash) and it is really hard sometimes. I put on a brave face and don't say anything to my wife but there are days when it is all I can do just to keep moving. Knowing I'm not alone helps more than I can say..

You'll get well .. it just takes a lot of time and patience. Most of us here never had the benefit of a rash to let us know we were infected. And thus the saga begins.
Hang in there!

I rewatched UOS this weekend, too.
Makes me feel a little bit better when the park ranger said he said a LOT of improvement in the 3rd year ( not that I'm glad it will take that long, but happy I'm not the only one not seeing much improvement in the first year ).
Hope you feel better real soon.

My son was on orals for 3 years 9-12 years old. Hes 16 on Thursday and is symptom free for two years. Thank you Dr. J. It can happen. Waiting for it to happen to mom, (me), but he's ok now, just a typical 16 year old with the door closed, on the phone and facebook, thank God. One day at a time. This is by far no picnic.

Hey Twisted Jon. We all can relate. I've had to come here for some venting before.
Hang in there!!

A slightly better day today but I'll take it hahahahaha! Pain spread from hand to shoulder now, still look like I'm a silent yes man lol...I can walk a bit better though so this is good. Wife is threatening to take me to doc tomorrow if I am still shaking like this but I don't know what she will be able to do. I got my script for Neurotin today for the pain and tremor and so far not able to see any difference. Am sure I should see some result by tomorrow, I have a rather quick system lol...
Peace, Love and a symptom free day to you all!

Some days are better than others. I've been through three years of this hell and sometimes I feel almost normal and sometimes I feel like death.
