My Soul Searching Journey Through Lyme Disease
A Year of Treating Lyme Disease: Success and Failures
July 6, 2017, today is day number 395 with my IV central line and day number 395 of treating Lyme Disease. Ideally this post would have come on day 365, marking one calendar year … but meeting deadlines is nearly impossible these days. Writing these posts take...
An Anniversary You Don’t Want to Celebrate
In the life of Lyme there are always unforeseen difficulties that stop you from accomplishing the things you want when you want. With that said, this is a post I intended to write, review and publish back in May … and it is now approaching the end of August. I hope...

The First Four Weeks of Treatment: An Update
What does it feel like to have the first month of treatment in the books? Bittersweet. Although I’ve actually felt better than expected; having days where physically speaking, I feel better than I have since 2015. This post really isn’t about the physical symptoms...
