Should I buy eggs or wait it out?

[Wishing4Wings]

Wish there was some way to help. Could the lyme's have triggered something? Guess you have to see the neurologist first. Hope they figure out how to help you.

Is Wrangler still coming next month? Maybe she can help brighten your days.



Oh, and the 40 lbs you lost, I think I found it.

Hey, Cheeka. We all love each other here. Just breathe and know that we are praying for and thinking of you. Vent about anything. We will listen... Or read as the case may be! And we all have weight to offer you! Although I am the closest, therefore the most logical choice!

 

[mortie]

But....I have the most to give so....

I kid. Cheeka. I just want to hug you. we <3 you!

 

[cheeka]

thanks everyone. I'm just so miserable. the only lyme test they would give to me is the most unreliable one, and it came back negative. they won't test for co-infections or do the more reliable test, since the first one came back as a no...
I try... I just choked down a couple of bantam eggs and a piece of toast and I feel like I ate a 7 course meal. at least the meds I started last month have stopped me crying all the time. well... most of the time. I cry when it's appropriate.

I want to let the flock out so bad. but I am so afraid to. it's so unfair. maybe I'll do it in an hour or 2 so they'll be easier to round up when it's closer to roost time, rather than because I'm worn out and don't want to stay outside anymore.

my GP did give me some antibiotics last year just in case... but it made no difference... I have a "friend" who says he would bet all he owns on the fact that I DO have chronic lyme... but the only place I can go to find out for sure does not take insurance, and I cannot afford to go.

on a brighter note, Mylee is coming. not until the end of the first week of June, but she'll be here until mid August.

Frustration extreme about them not doing the test you want. Instead of going to a different doctor, can you go to the same one and pay out of pocket for the test? It might be worth the peace of mind. This whole health insurance thing drives me crazy. A lot more people may have insurance, but that's a far cry from getting health care. It's a scam.

 

[cheeka]

the way they treat Chronic Lyme is a scam. I pray I don't really have that... the CDC won't admit to it, so insurance doesn't have to cover it, and they don't. the treatment costs are astronomical - I cannot afford it. truthfully, the argument has been MS vs advanced Celiac which they are just learning about. being gluten free is essential, but it is no cure. it does advance. we'll see.

we had free range today!







the first time Peri and Belle really noticed the chickens...

 

[Wishing4Wings]

Cheeka, none of those possibilities sound good to me. Praying for something else that either goes away or is an easy fix.

Beautiful pics!! Again!!

Peri is saying, Mom, look at all those dog toys! Let's go play!

 

[mortie]

Yeah I am with w4w...I don't like any of those possibilities.

 

[cheeka]

me either. oh well. Peri wants to chase so bad... but she already learned how to behave around the cats, so... hopefully Royce won't be the one teaching her the lesson...
