The past week......

has been a like whirl-wind. I have been praying and asking for prayers from anyone who reads this!

I have not felt physically good much, until Wednesday. I finally got over that horrible spinal headache, and have just about cleared the junk from the bronchitis!! I felt 1oo million times better on Wednesday and did tons of laundry and cleaned some house. I had a good day, and a good night at church as well. I slept good that night as well, with no sleep meds!! Thursday was good, but I was tired! I guess Wednesday had caught up to me. We took Kendra to the American Girl Store and Bistro for her birthday from mom. She (we) had a good time! I love those good days when there is not much bothering me!! Kendra calls me sleepyhead all the time and she is right. I have not gone but maybe 2 days here lately without some kind of nap. Today I could hardly keep my eyes open and fell asleep in the chair, the kids had gone to play upstairs - glad I have good kids that can occupy themselves without trouble!!

Anyway, I have been collecting all the recent blood tests and MRI's from everywhere to take to Houston with me next week. I am trying to get a good picture of my history so he gets a good picture of the Lyme and the MS/lesions and what my body has been doing here lately. It is hard for me to keep up with it at times, hence the blogging now.

Feeling Like Crap.....

Since yesterday........
I think I may be having a "herx" possibly. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herxheimer_reaction).
Been on meds for a little over a week now and still been sick with Bronchitis too. Just feeling rundown, and like this cough is going to stay forever!! I did alot of shopping yesterday for school stuff for the kids. It was a great girls' day out with my friends, but it also made me very tired. I even had to cancel plans last night to play cards because I was not well. I think my meds worked a number on me yesterday as well as the heat. Part of the shopping was in a warehouse with no AC and it got to about 85 outside with complete sun. I nearly passed out before I paid so I left the building and went to my friend's car. I just felt horrible the rest of the evening.......I still feel rough today. It is almost like a hangover, but sadly, I have not been drinking. I did not get to sleep until 3am on Friday night, so I know that played a big part in the feeling bad all day as well. Anytime I get out of synch, it has lingering effects on me. Seems like most things do these days!!
