To this day, she still has memory and disorientation issues.

In the beginning, she would not know me when she went to sleep some nights but would the next morning.

She has days when she does not know me for over 16 hours and thinks she is in fact, someone other than herself.

I feel like I am living with alzheimers disease, but know things should be better.

I think it is not the end of my sickness but the improvement at this particular time is so remarkable that I wanted to share it with you.
A few months ago I was afraid of leaving house so I might be getting lost and found homework of my son from grade 3 to difficult to tackle.

Started Lyme disease treatment Jan 6 2005 after diagnosing in Dec 2004. Previously been sick for several years and VERY sick for one year.

I got to the point where I was getting lost driving near my home. That is not an issue now but I still have a bunch of mapquest directions in my glove box.

for.....

going to my brothers house, Once a month Dr, Every 6 months endo, freinds house, etc.

I never got lost coming or going to work. Darn it! Only work 2 or 3 days a week.

I used to be alot more confused but I'm feeling more myself "smart". Going on 6 months of treatment.

My son(16), is doing much better in school without a tutor most of the time. He works very slowly, the school isn't very toleratnt, that's another thread! We are pleased with his progress and expect the remaining slowness and memory issues to improve farther.

I have short term memory damage due to going without oxygen for 3 min (about 12 years ago).
