PA visit
This morning was my PA visit. I had a delightful 45 minute drive with gorgeous scenery, the leaves are all peaking. The colors are magnificent, I was in awe the entire drive. I'm doing really well. Since my Lyme Journey began I've lost 20 pounds! It was over a 4 month span of time and I ate tons of fat and high quality meat, so I lost only body fat. I'm back to a weight I haven't seen in decades. My blood pressure is now down to 110/70. It had been slowly creeping up the last 10 years. It started in the 140s/90. I'm still struggling with lots of Lyme symptoms, but none so severe that they are keeping me from living life. They are nagging and remind me that I still have Lyme disease. My PA assured me that symptoms I'm still having are completely normal and will over the next few months begin to subside. No more being a hero, take the OTCs when needed. The stress I am putting myself through and not getting any relief when symptoms are bad isn't good for me either. I am to stick 1000% to the diet she has me on and continue to take the Herbal Antibiotic for another 4 months and longer if symptoms persist. No sugar or carbs other then vegetables.....so the little bit of cheating I've been doing since vacation, must STOP. I can add some healthy carbs like sweet potatoes back into my diet in another 4 months, and only if I have no symptoms. She praised me once again, I've been a model patient, and no further visits are needed unless I get sicker. We can get well by using food and nature.
This is AMAZING news!!!! No sugar... it's bad for all of us. You can do this!!! You are such an inspiration!!! xox
