Still on that boat…

Strawberry blonde in a dizzy world!

Day 15

November3

I pushed the envelope too far and now it’s shoving me right back! I felt a bit jittery this morning and I put that down to having more energy than usual. I went to my yoga class and really enjoyed it as I felt much stronger. I even met my friend after for a cuppa which was great for a catch up. I then really struggled to get back to the car (parked about 100 meters away) as it felt like the path was moving. So back to the sofa for me, the vertigo’s really hitting back, even popping up the stairs to the loo is quite worrying as I feel really drunk. So hopefully I just overdid it yesterday and if I rest up it will settle over the next couple of days. This illness is such a bitch!

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.
