• more fun with Lyme doc

  Yesterday we went over the blood work I had taken after my last visit. And it's official: I have Lyme disease. I missed meeting the CDC's criteria for Lyme by one band on the Western blot. But combined with my symptoms, we've begun treatment. That means getting the yeast in my body out of my system. So I've started a yeast-free, sugar-free, alcohol-free diet. And started Nystatin tablets to kill the beasties. And because I have heart-burn, I am also on a bland diet. I cut my coffee back from four mugs to one today. No headache, but overwhelming fatique.  It will be interesting to go to work tomorrow and see how I function. Because coffee has been a mainstay for me. I particularly enjoy adding espresso shots to regular coffee. No more of that. 

  Good night.
  Blessings abound. This could be one, too, in disguise.
