Lyme Update

"How are you feeling?"

The question my mom asks every week when she calls.

And, actually....I feel pretty good.

I had finished my DesBio protocol three weeks ago and was nervous about still having symptoms.  They weren't awful, but they were still there and the homeopathic treatment was done.

Because of this, I started on Chronic Tonic from Misty Meadows.....it's just a blend of herbs to help strengthen my immune system.  I'm also taking Teasel Root to reduce inflammation and an anti-inflammatory tea.

I'm still working out each day....in fact, after finishing the 100 day program, I went back to that 80 day program that I really enjoyed.  Right now, I'm wrapping up phase 1.

Nutrition still plays an important role in my healing.  I'm avoiding sugar, gluten, and dairy to avoid the chest pains, stabbing headaches and brain fog.  Thank God the nutrition program I had started before Lyme set me up with good habits to continue......and there are so many recipes that are actually Lyme friendly!

The journey isn't over, but I feel like we've accomplished SOMETHING.
