Very blurry pic. I got my Lidocaine IV on Tuesday. I wasn't too nauseated from the IV but I suspect because I had a bad sleep and was exhausted that the Lidocaine made me much more 'loopy', tired and shaky than I had expected. We did some shopping before and after my IV, I used a wheelchair the entire time otherwise I wouldn't have been able to do anything. Wednesday was nothing but a blur as I laid in bed and hardly moved from it. I felt really awful, it takes me so long to recover from leaving the house. Today's I had to get up early (8am) and go for a doctors appointment. I got my meds refilled with no problems. I felt so exhausted all day long, I'm hoping I get a good sleep tonight- I really need one! #IV #Lidocaine #Magnesium #LidocaineAndMagnesiumIV #ChronicPain #ChronicLyme #LymeDisease #ChronicPainTreatment #Fibromyalgia #ChronicFatigueSyndrome #ChronicIllness #ChronicallyIll #InvisibleIllness #Disabled #Disability #Spoonie #Lymie #LymeWarrior #ChronicPainWarrior #YouTube #YouTuber #Vlogger #DisabledYouTuber #Subscribe

I got my 5th Lidocaine IV yesterday! I'm super behind on my photo challenge 😐 #MayLymeDiseaseAwarenessPhotoChallenge Day 22 - 4 Lyme Disease myths 💚 It take a tick 24-48 hours to transmit infection ~ this isn't true and a very weak fact. It really doesn't depend on the amount of time it takes for a tick to transmit disease. They did a study on this, one tick was able to transmit disease within 30 minutes of the initial bite. 💚 You can only get Lyme Disease from deer ticks. ~ this again is a myth pushed by the CDC like crazy! There are many different species of ticks that can transmit Lyme Disease and other co-infections. Fleas, mites, mosquitos, and black flies all have the ability to transmit Lyme Disease and various other co-infections 💚Lyme disease is rare, and easily treatable ~ with 300,000 new cases each year, with that number more than likely being much higher, Lyme Disease is not by any means rare. The key to beating Lyme is catching it in the early stages, even the early stages of the disease can be hard to treat, especially with the presence of co-infections. Later stages of Lyme Disease (Chronic Lyme) is much harder to treat, some may reach remission and others may not. There is much evidence to suggest that Lyme cannot be fully eradicated from ones body. 💚 There is no such thing as 'Chronic Lyme' ~ Many Lyme Disease patients, LLMDs and Lyme Disease researchers would definitely disagree. This is the biggest challenge facing Chronic Lyme patients, the complete denial by the CDC and IDSA of the existence of Chronic Lyme Disease. There have been numerous studies showing that Lyme disease is the later stages left untreated becomes a chronic infection. #LymeDisease #ChronicLyme #LymeAwareness #LymeDiseaseAwarenessMonth #TBD #TickBorneIllness #InfectiousDisease #Babesia #Borrelia #Bartonella #IV #Lidocaine #LidocaineAndMagnesiumIV #ChronicPain #ChronicFatigueSyndrome #Fibromyalgia #ChronicIllness #ChronicallyIll #InvisibleIllness #Disabled #Disability #Spoonie #Lymie #myphotos
