Now Everybody Knows
And how is everybody faring with lockdown measures? I'm taking precautions daily about how not to wind up with the virus. COVID-19 is a tricky devil from what I've read. I'm determined to avoid getting it, so I have invested my time in learning about lemongrass tea which is a gentle immune system booster having no side effects. It even tastes like lemon without the citrus chemicals that could give me heartburn. But anyway, lockdown is a measure that has been taken to prevent the infection from spreading. I'm hiding out at home until it is absolutely safe to go out. I have a physical therapy in-person appointment coming up at the end of this month.

My Battle with Lyme Disease and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever During the Covid19 Pandemic
Several months ago I started feeling so fatigued that I couldn't get out of bed. Working a 9-5 was my biggest challenge in ways that didn't make sense: I simply couldn't wake up in the morning. In addition to this I started getting strange virus like symptoms, landing myself in the ER where I was sent home with a "general virus" diagnosis and a thousand dollar medical bill.

The 5 Areas of Health
Everyone wants to live a healthy lifestyle. People spend a lot of money on good food and gym passes, manage their weight, and aim to obtain that good bill of health from the doctor's office each year. Of course, as mental health has become more and more okay to talk about, people's desire for good mental health for themselves and their children have also increased. And the doctor's office is more likely to ask you about your mental health now, knowing that it can have an effect on your overall health and well being.

The real-life of chronic Fatigue Syndrome Patient
People ask me, "do you remember what it was like before you knew you had CFS" yes I do. I started getting symptoms about a year ago, getting tired over doing nothing, sick feeling with either a low-grade fever or no fever at all. Always having a sore throat, body aches. Most of the time I wrote it off as the flu and so did doctors without ever flu testing me. The thing was after my symptoms would go down, I was still feeling minor issues like the fatigue and so on, I started to blame it on my ADHD medication. When it wore off, I assumed it would just crash. Then I get asked "do you remember what it was like before you had CFS" yes, I remember that too. I think about that alot. How great it was to wake up, after sleeping all night and feeling good. Being able to do household chores without fighting with my body, being able to exercise every day, being able to drive more than 20 minutes at a time, Being able to work, being able to not have to cancel plans. Yeah I certainly remember, and sadly, now I know I have a 5% chance of that ever coming back, and even then it wouldn't be fully normal.
