Building building

Still here


It has been suggested that I should do a bit of a diary, on symptoms, to try and find a pattern

This is a very good suggestion and sensible

Can I do it?

I am so hopeless with stuff that HAS to be done every day.....

My bench looks like a nursing home 

But at least this part is organised.

I find I am 'crashing' approx 21 hours after I take the Doxycycline, my bones will turn to ice, I have to lie down with several blankets, sleep for an hour even. My neck feels weird, like I have really swollen glands or something.

I am turning into a 'morning' person.

Wwhhhaaatttt!!???!!

I know, NEVER in my life

I had one particularly good morning on Wednesday.

I felt normal

No brain fog

No ringing in my ears (cicada head)

POTS was minimal

Even if that was 50% improvement - I could live with that

Small Man is still sleeping A LOT

Bad, bad headaches

Trying to help him detox as much as possible

Because he is unable to drink stuff that looks like this:


Whereas I can (when I get to it, hard on work days at the moment).
This is fresh beetroot, celery, pineapple, apple, cucumber, ginger, carrot, garlic juice with some chia seeds.

Epsom salt baths will help Small Man, along with reduction of sugar in his diet (which we have done).

I have ordered further supplements to the Vitamin C, Magnesium, probiotics and B12 that we are already taking.

Currently we are up to 4 x 100mg of Doxycycline per day.
Tuesday we add 300mg Rifampicin
7 days later we add another 300mg Rifampicin
7 days later we start Plaquenil

So far we can live with the Herx

Haha!

I should have added, there are only 7 tablets in each bottle, I know right? what a waste...

By the time I am on my full dose I will be taking 6 or 7 different prescription meds per day, along with who knows how many supplements.

All for a good cause though.

The penicillin injections...not looking forward to :/
