Over the past few months I have been working on trying to get healthy. This included going to the doctor with all my ailments in hand and figuring out what the heck is going on. Luckily right off the bat I found a great doc who is willing to listen and work on figuring it all out! I have had several blood work labs done and here were the conclusions. First I have lyme's disease, this is no shock to anyone who knows my family as several of my family members have been diagnosed in the past 2 years. The extent of the disease isn't really possible to trace besides clinical symptoms and I fall somewhere in the middle of the group there. I will see a specialist in October to determine the best way to move forward and hopefully be Lyme's disease free by next year or so. As for all the other symptoms, more blood work and more potential diagnosis but no conclusions yet. The other thing I am working on is all my neglected injuries over the past few years. I am in constant pain that has nothing to do with any "symptoms" of a disease, its more like, ya I got hurt and ignored it and now I am paying the price... So I am in physical therapy twice a week for my hip. Its not too bad as most of what I do is get deep tissue and fascia massages and ultrasound (deep heat). Occasionally they give me more stretches and exercises and after showing me them allow me to do them on my own. Not a bad gig and seems to be helping quite a bit. This isn't the first thing I have tried for this ailment but seems to be initially the most effective...
So hopefully I can keep on the path of figuring out this health stuff and start my 30's with a clean bill of health or at least answers... Hope everyone is doing well!
