Eureka!
I never thought I would be so happy to get a diagnosis, even if vague!
So far it's for Rikettsia ( sp ) and maybe Q Fever? The Q thing is a bit scary - to say the least. No cure for chronic Q sufferers, no hope according the the CDC - even deadly - and they are usually pretty upbeat!
Dr M slapped the Dx onto me - gave me a script for three months meds - and told me to come back in two weeks. He forgot to mention the Q fever, when he gave me back my lab results.
2 days on ABX - I feel like I am at a birthday party. Not sure if this is good or bad- who knows - I have a tiny bit of hope. Being a sensitive isn't fun - you kind of know what is wrong with you / but then don't we all know our own bodies?
If I had trusted my gut, I may have gotten myself treated earlier. Thanks to the Doctor who didn't help me.
Some days death seems really warm. And I love life.
The biggest kicker is summer. When it's warm I can hear the train hooting for the vacationers to get off the rails when it goes along the beach - a sign that the heat is going to be long and lonely, and indoors.
Laugh / cry
For now - I am feeling - relieved someone believes me. Esp - now my family.
Waiting for antibiotics reactions.....3 months of NO TYLENOL!!! HOW TO COPE?????????? ( other meds don't work as well for me for my insane fever! )
Waaaaaaaah. haahhahaa.
