California Lyme Journey: part3: Gallstones, gas stations and caretaking

Today, hi yes I’m back, we discuss the gallstone in the gas station incident, caused Lyme antibiotics and how my mom navigated it as a parent and caretaker. Also we go into how that led to my SMAS diagnosis. We are all over the place as usual, enjoy :)

California Lyme Journey: part2: slow and steady wins the race.

Today we talk about the beginning of my medication for Lyme and treatment. It was slow, and hard. We also talk about how sometimes being in someone who is chronically ill’s life is actually easier than you think. And ofc some education on Lyme and a few funny stories.

California Lyme Journey: part1: Why did we go to California?

So, a lot of you have asked why did we leave my home state for Lyme care, and what are my mom and I’s stories. Well, here’s part 1 of not sure how long series. We get really really honest. This is the beginning, why we went to Cali for treatment, and my health then. Don’t worry more funny stories are coming but this one is more about our shitty health care system and the black listing of Lyme disease.

Caretaker talk #3 : Am I delusional?: (in conclusion I’m not)

Join me as I break down feeling delusional in my feelings of PTSD and medical trauma and how it is expressed on my mom. Then she joins me, and we talk all things of our medical trauma, our bond we have and how it’s okay to have the feelings I have, and how I’m not crazy. plus some goofy alien talk and Alex the cat sign off.

scared of the unknown

for years, I’ve been sick, in chronic intense pain. But now, with a possible relief, for one of my chronic illnesses, on the horizon, what if I’m scared of it getting “better”. join me on a stupid tangent on how now that I’m getting surgery for my MALS, how it really makes me feel.
