  • Second Shot and Moving On

    I got my second shot of the Moderna covid-19 vaccine back on May 22. Like many people, I had some arm soreness, some body aches and sleepiness, but after two days, I was fine. In fact, I was better than… Continue reading

    Second Shot and Moving On
  • First Shot and After Effects

    I received the first shot of Moderna’s covid vaccine on April 24. It turns out I was excited, giddy even, to get vaccinated. I went in with lots of hopes, like flying across the country to see my family, and… Continue reading

  • COVID-19 Vaccine Plan

    Let me start by saying I had no question in my mind that I would get vaccinated for COVID-19. I wasn’t sure when or which vaccine, but I have family I can only visit by plane (driving from coast to… Continue reading

  • Disulfiram until I needed to stop again

    When I last wrote, I was about to start a higher (and yet still minuscule) dose of disulfiram. After 12 weeks at 62.5mg once per week, I increased to 125mg once per week on January 11. I stayed at that… Continue reading

  • Disulfiram Round 3

  • Disulfiram trial 2

    I had such good intentions to write about what was happening with disulfiram as I took it. But then COVID-19 happened, and a sick housemate, and I got what I think was a mild case, and when we were better,… Continue reading

  • Disulfiram update (with covid–19 in the house)

    When I realized that I hadn’t had a respiratory infection since 2001 after my Lyme “flu,” I had a fantasy that if there were ever an epidemic respiratory disease, the Lyme bacteria would protect me. Some people I spoke to… Continue reading

  • Disulfiram reboot (with coiling this time)

    For the past few months, since I stopped taking disulfiram due to side effects, I’ve been using the coil machine to try to stem the resurgence of Lyme disease and Babesia that have been slowly waking up. Things got worse… Continue reading
