Yeah I look just like that in my checked flannelette Primark PJ’s 😉

Sorry, no blog entries for a while as things have been pretty awful. It’s difficult to make day after day in bed sound very exciting or funny when its simply terrible. I think (fingers crossed) I’m startling to pick myself up again, unfortunately there is no Prince Charming to save me from my nightmare. I am seeing my consultant in a couple of weeks, I guess he is a kind of hero in this story. Lets hope he has a good plan up his sleeve!

I got this get well soon card which kind of sums things up!

I did manage to get out and go to a barn dance for a bit (just spectating of course). My mum helped organise it to raise funds to save the village green from development. I have never seen such a bunch of uncoordinated people in all my life and even in my majorly fed up state I couldn’t help but smile. There were women forgetting that they were taking the place of men and vica versa, people who had clearly never heard of the term clockwise and lots of crashing into each other – how an ambulance was not called was a miracle!

Won a cracking prize on the raffle too, very seasonal!

Lets hope things pick up soon or I may just be swigging the above for breakfast 😉

    Glad you are feeling a bit better – just in time for your birthday! Have a good one and stay off the mulled wine, I’m sure that wont help!

Hi, My name is Susan and in 2010 I suddenly got very sick with vertigo and extreme fatigue. My life as I knew it changed forever. I had to leave my job as a junior Doctor to move back home with my family as I was unable to look after myself, let alone other people. It took a very long time, about 2644 doctors visits and ALL the tests to be told ‘congratulations, all your results are normal there is nothing wrong with you’, which was the most devastating news of all as there clearly WAS something horribly wrong, we just could not identify it.

 

Eventually, I was diagnosed with Chronic Lyme Disease which was great news as I finally had a reason to feel so ill. That was until I realised that there is no real recognised treatment and I was once again left to trying to navigate debilitating symptoms alone. More doctors, more tests, protocol after debilitating protocol and plenty of ‘ah ha’ moments later I finally started to heal. It was quite the journey and I have learnt a lot about what treatments are out there, and perhaps more importantly, the body’s amazing capacity to heal. I am now in a position where I want to help others to reclaim their health.
