More Stuff

I haven't started the new round of meds yet. The pharmacy had to special order one of them and I wanted to get through the weekend before starting anything.

Today, it's almost 70 degrees outside and I'm sitting in my house FREEZING! The heat is still on, but I'm dressed in long sleeve tee, sweater, socks, and have a blanket wrapped around me. I don't think he ran a thyroid panel on my last bloodwork but will ask him to run one next time if he didn't. I'm anxiously awaiting the new bloodwork to come in this week, I know he ran the CD-57 count. I've only had it run once, back in September and I was a low 44 count. Curious to see what the levels are now that it's been 7 months, with several months of treatment during that time.

It's Back!

Went to my LLMD today after a 3-month hiatus. I finished the prescriptions in mid-February and I was feeling really great. But then, slowly but surely, old and new symptoms started to pop up. My biggest issue right now is in my torso. I've had heart palpitations and flutters, chest pain/heaviness, and an intermittent ache in my upper stomach.

My joints have been feeling great, my energy levels are good, so my original Lyme symptoms have subsided. The new symptoms are apparently all co-infection related. The worst ones are linked to Babesia and I am also showing some Bartonella.

So I'm back on the drugs for a while. He's switching me from Doxy to Minocycline. I'm taking Rifampin and Zithromax again. He's also starting me on LDN therapy (Low-Dose Naltrexone). I also have to go back on Diflucan as my candida is out of control again.

So, here I go again. Another 2 months of drugs. So much for feeling better.
