Coiling for Lyme

Thoughts on pain and pain management.

  • Hands

    I’m in pain. My hands hurt. They really hurt. My arms and shoulders and neck really hurt. The level goes from extreme to excruciating. So this post will be short. I added 1 minute of coiling for Bartonella to each… Continue reading

  • Lyme Disease and Sex

    Not Feeling So Sexy When I first got really sick from Lyme Disease, sex was the farthest thing from my mind. The first year, when I was semi-paralyzed, lying on my bed, wondering what was wrong with me, I thought… Continue reading

  • Spitting out Mercury

    Over the past five years, I’ve read lots about mercury toxicity and dental amalgams. A few years ago, I got tested for heavy metals. I had a not-alarmingly-high amount of mercury in my urine, but enough that I could see… Continue reading

  • Chronic Pain and Lyme Disease

    Pain has been a consistent companion to me for many years, starting in earnest in 2001. Back then, it was wrist pain that shot up into my arms and neck. Even with all the pain, the hokey diagnosis, and the… Continue reading

  • Hands

    It seems my Lyme Herx is still moving along the familiar pattern. First the headaches (light sensitivity, floaters, etc) come then they start to calm down. Then the spine pain with paraspinal muscles in a knot. Then the muscles calm… Continue reading

  • Bartonella-head

    Bartonella is the tick-borne illness I have that I know the least about. I know it causes a lot of gastrointestinal symptoms. I suspect it is the source of all or most of my food allergies. I’ve also had plenty… Continue reading
