Hi there, I know it's been a while since I've posted last. I didn't think it'd be that long but it's been hard to write. Not just because I have been dealing with rashes, but because I have been having a rough time and I don't want to write a post that's negative. What I've realized is that this is real life and sometimes things can get hard. It may not be always positive, but you can take something positive from it. And sometimes you might just feel negative. That's normal too.
I remember when I was really sick that I would write in my journal. I feel like writing helps me, which is why I'm doing this for myself. But if this post can help someone else who is struggling, then it would be worth blogging. Another thing that helps me is having a gratitude journal.
Beginning in March, I did the parasite protocol that helped me feel a lot better. I was able to start leaving the house and take an online class. After the protocol I started to get rashes on my arms, legs, hands, neck and face. I've been struggling with the rashes for the past few months. It's been itchy and painful. Not to mention I can't shower without the water causing my arms to burn. It seems like after treatment the die off and toxins that got released were coming out through my skin as a way of detox. It seems that I've been dealing with heavy metal toxicity. The symptoms have been traumatic.
Now the rashes are starting to heal which is good. Although it's still not easy to write, but it's getting there. I've been taking a break from treatment and working on rebuilding and detoxing my body. After two months, now the Babesia symptoms are coming back. It's driving me crazy. It feels like I'm dying. I have to keep treating again but take it easy because my liver and other organs are backed up.
Yesterday, on Aug. 17th I saw a new doctor locally who uses natural treatment. She really understood me and that I've been through a lot. I believe she can help me, and I'm looking forward to adding another doctor to my team.
Because I haven't been able to leave the house for a couple months, it can get lonely. That also makes it hard to make friends. Lyme disease can cause people to feel lonely and isolated. It's a symptom. It's not easy, but I must remember it's not true. I know I'm not alone. This doesn't mean the symptoms are easy, but I know it's only temporary. I know this is all only temporary.
I must remind myself - I am strong. I am brave. I am healing.
When battling Lyme disease, sometimes it can get worse before better. What helps me is focusing on the better. I believe God will not only bring you out, but He will bring you out better than you were before. I'm grateful for that. I know God's timing is perfect and when it's my time it'll be even better than I could have imagined.
I know and have faith that God is healing me. I know the best has yet to come. ♡
