Lyme and co infections treatment

Donation protected
Hey,

Back in May I got back to back tick bites.
Symptoms came on like a ranging fire. Depending on what the ticks carry will depend on how bad the disease can be.
I was back in forth from hospital all summer. Bedridden, couldn’t drive, couldn’t function. I got several different infections including a blood parasite that rips apart your red blood cells.

Here are some of the atrocious symptoms I’ve experienced:
Blacking out for several weeks
Double vision
Vertigo and spinning out of my body
Headaches from the spirochetes and parasites that were the most pain from a headache I’ve ever experienced
Neurological disruption ( couldn’t make connections to parts of my body)
Sweat Drenches
Unable to breathe ( blood parasites)
Heart palpitations
Psychosis ( not knowing where I was, panics, rage, super scary stuff)
Brain Fog
Nerve pain
Massive pain everywhere
Digestive aches
Whole body disfunction

Obviously will all those things, you can not work, let alone function!

I’m asking for help just to cover my LLMD ( Lyme Literate Medical Doctor) expenses and treatment til I can work more and cover everything on my own. With a proper and aggressive treatment, you can get stabilized but it takes time and the right treatment. If you guys know me you know I am all about research, even my LLMD was shocked at how much knowledge I had already gained about these diseases.

Being a mom, this has been super hard on our family. If you’re a mom or dad you know how important it is to stay healthy or at least well enough to take of your people!

Any support is much appreciated!

Thank you so much,

Christina
