Well stated antibiotics again

2nd try treating this Lyme. I am on clarithromycin 500mg 2x a day. Started on Saturday so probably too soon to say ya or nay! lol So far seems like fatigue is better but don't want to jinx it. Have a coppery taste in mouth, which is a side effect, and today the runs have started. Again not sure if its herx, something I ate, or what. Being on antibiotics really scares me and having the runs. Can even kills you. Wouldn't that be funny?? The shits kill me instead of the lyme ahhahahahah. Ok you have to laugh. Besides what other options are there? No other side effects so far. Really hoping it clears up my face too. Tired of looking like a teen. UGH!!

So weak

I don't get what is happening to me. The fatigue and the muscle weakness scare me. My grandmother had Mysenthia Gravis so that is always in the back of my mind. Although Lyme can cause the muscle weakness as well. Need to get my act together for next week and find place that will draw my blood and give me back a vial. Oh plus the pesky problem of paying for all this testing.

Dr keeps calling my husbands cell phone where I had my Cat scan done. They want to send me to ENT but I would rather go to one of my choice. Did search on who they want to send me to and the reviews aren't pleasant. Hopefully they don't want to do biopsy on the glands. The reason they are swollen I am sure is due to the Lyme but since the normal DRs say I don't have Lyme there really is no reason to go back to them. This whole thing is nuts. I would never tell them that I was getting treated out of state for it either. In fact I probably will keep my drs name secret as well. I don't trust anyone. Maybe I am paranoid but TPTB don't want you getting well. That is just my opinion so take it for what it is worth. Ok enough doom and gloom.

Hope to get on antibiotic first part of May and really hope there are no bad side effects. Oh can't forget to get my probioitcs before I start taking them. At the tune of 100bucks per month. Grrrr. Ok stop worrying everything works out right??

Hello

Thought I would start a blog to document my progress during my 2nd attempt at treating my chronic Lyme. I have a odd sense of humor and sometimes can be dark. So if that offends you might want to go elsewhere. But I am always truthful and won't sugar coat things. I find a lot in the Lyme community tend to do that. And I would never blast someones choice or non choice of treatment. Very personal decision I think. Heck I took almost a year off from treatment. I think you have to do that to keep your sanity. Anyway will try to post as much as possible. Thanks for looking and reading!
