Medicine, Y U No Work?
If you're one of the precious few followers of this blog (and bless your bones for that,) then you know I have Lyme Disease. Or "The Lymes," as I like to call it. I was just diagnosed a couple of months ago, even though there's no telling how long I've had it. So, I've been taking my medicine like a good little patient, but it's not working! I had a brief period of respite for one day last week, but that may have just been a placebo effect. I'm now done with my three week course of antibiotics, and I still feel craptastic. And this makes me the crankiest of pandas. I've got an appointment with a rheumatologist Monday, so maybe something else can be done. But for right now, I think I will just throw myself a pity party. Does anyone have any cheese that I can have with my whine?

Hope the antibiotics kick in. I had something similar to Lyme disease about 25 years ago, but was never diagnosed. All same symptoms of Lyme disease for months. It was awful. I finally got the right antibiotics and steroids and it went away. Never knew what it was or what caused it. It was BAD!
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's pretty unpleasant! I hope I get the meds I need, and this junk can be gone!
DeleteLemon disease is much better. Why didn't you get that one instead?
ReplyDeleteHar! Har! Har!
I hope your rheumatologist can help you out. I also hope that this isn't something chronic. We'd need a Costco amount of cheese to go with that whine.
I know! If life had just handed me lemon disease, at least then I could have made a refreshing beverage! Wait...limes = tequila. Maybe this isn't such a bad rap after all.
DeleteI have something familiar with Lyme disease for a couple of yesrs. Lukily, I have got a right medicine and I feel great now. I hope your rheumatologist can fix you and don't worry. It is not fatal.
ReplyDeleteWell that's a cheesey deal getting lyme disease.
ReplyDeletesorry that was lame.
I hope that they can find something that works for you.

A guy that my husband works with has a tick that burrowed under his skin. They have to leave it there until it makes its way out. How sick is that?
Lame, but I'll let it slide! And, ewwwwwww!
DeleteI do hope you feel better soon. Hang in there. (((hugs)))

DeleteUgh, that totally sucks (sorry, should've warned you about the impending understatement). Feel better!!!
