America here I come!
Happy Easter 🙂
Well, the last few months have been a disaster. I have been gradually building up on the herbal formulas and feeling worse and worse. My Specialist has now run out of them so I can’t continue treatment – what a massive waste of time! Although I’m furious that my treatment has stopped due to poor organisation (awaiting a delivery from the US) part of me is pretty relived. Spending day after day too ill to get up is very hard going, especially when you don’t know if its even of any benefit in the long run. I’ve been off them ten days now and things are starting to settle down.
I have been spending a lot of time researching treatment abroad as I can see that I have exhausted all options available in the UK. I have actually booked an appointment with a clinic in Washington DC. The clinic has had some good results, no promises of a cure (of course!) but it appears that they get some improvement of symptoms in most cases. They take on more complicated patients who have had Lyme for a number of years and have not responded to any treatment – sounds like a familiar story!?!
The only thing I had with an American flag on – typical me! So I’m all booked to go with my Dad in May, I have to hope that it is the right choice. It’s a pretty daunting decision when you don’t know if it is the right thing to do but it does feel good to have a plan of action, sitting around deteriorating is not an option! It’s almost as exciting as my tomato plants 😉
That’s awesome Sues. I know you have had a shocker of late, so the idea of finding a completely new avenue to explore is superb and hopefully will be that final step…. Plus get to go to DC which will be a great trip as well.
Wow that’s exciting! Good luck with the trip and fingers crossed for you X
