Day 6

October26

I’m feeling much brighter today. I do feel like I have the combined hangover from everyone who was out last night (annoying when you’re on the lime and soda!) but my vertigo isn’t as bad as I had expected. I’ve had a really chilled out day sewing, cooking and getting my moneys worth out of my Netflix subscription. I’m having dinner cooked for me tonight which I’m really looking forward to, its nice to not feel quite so sick today so good food is a highlight for a change! Speaking of cooking I’ve been heating myself up and I’m wondering if this is helping the treatment.

Its called a portable Infrared sauna, It’s supposed to help by clearing the toxins generated from killing the Lyme with the antibiotics. I thought it was worth giving a go as there is a theory that the bugs don’t like the higher temperatures and that could explain why I feel better when I’m in Sardinia – well that, or the never ending supply of Prosecco, I’ll try that next! I’m not sure if Jeremy Beadle is going to pop out and say its all a big joke, but at this point I’d try anything to feel better – I do look like I should be in an episode of Dr Who! Well, as long as it ‘exterminates’ the Lyme 😉

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.
