Stephanie’s battle with chronic Lyme disease
Donation protected
On October 18 2019 I got deathly ill. Since I have had 2 surgeries ... I've seen multiple doctors. I’m overwhelmed and not feeling as brave as most of friends know me to be . I still feel terrible and I’m in pain 24/7. Some days I can barely walk, my vision is blurred and I have significant numerological symtoms that really scare me. Yes I’m alive but there isn't quality of life because I honestly feel like I'm slipping away. It's the scariest thing.
My body is full of toxic metals and bacteria that looks like lyme disease and mold. The problem is now VA nor mainstream medicine are literate In treating my condition. My parents and I have spent thousands of dollars trying to find the right treatment , alternative equipment and provider. There is a specialist in DC who is specializes in treating this. He has had great results with his patients. I just can't afford to see him . I never ask for help. I really need help now so that I can live. I listed below some of what I experience on a daily basis. If I don't get this out my head it could lead to permanent paralysis
My parents have been so supportive ! This is a long road to recovery . So keep them in you’re prayers as well .
