Home

I don’t know that I’ve ever been gladder to be home! LA is a horrible place to visit, much less live! The people are rude. There are horns and sirens blowing all day long, the traffic…OMG!! We got home about 10:30. The dogs were very happy to see us. 😁

Now I start feeding my stem cells the right things to make them multiply and fight and build up my adrenals. It’s almost a vegetarian diet for the stem cells, no sugar, no carbohydrates. My adrenals can’t have caffeine, so tea and coffee are out. It’s a real challenge. I can’t have very many fruits. I can’t have salad. There’s going to be a lot of vegetable soup! 😂 I can’t eat raw vegetables! It sounds crazy but I’m not taking any chances!

I can’t dye my hair, which I haven’t done in years anyway. But get this, girlfriends. I can’t have nail polish!!! That’s going to be harder than the diet!!😂🤣 One of my fellow lymers works for L’Oreal and she’s sending me some chemical free polish.

On the subject of being around people, the clinic was very adamant about it. I am not to be in crowds, not even rooms full of people. I can have visitors, but no hugging and kissing which is hard for me.😩 You can’t even have the sniffles and there may be times when we ask you to wear a mask if I’m at a low point. In other words, it’s too much trouble to see me.😕 Kids in daycare and school are the worst. 😞 Any illness can be a real setback.

This will be my last post on this subject on FB. Everything else from this point on will be a learning tool for people who are going through Lyme and thinking of going to Infusio. There will be days when I feel fine and then there’ll be days when I crash. At 100 days, they reassess me and I might have to go back for a booster. But it could take anywhere from six months to a year to know if it has worked. My stem cells are reproducing daily.

I want to thank all of you so much for your good thoughts, love, and encouragement. I couldn’t have done it without you. And especially thank my husband. He took every step with me and it was almost as painful for him. I didn’t think I could love him anymore than I do, but I was wrong.
