Hi everyone! I've always wanted to talk more about my health (physical and mental), but this blog became a book blog, so quickly, that I know I don't have time to post that here. So, I have launched a brand new blog: Script of Hope. I will be posting every Wednesday. This isn't a medical [...]
Okay, I was going to wait, but I wanted to post this now because I have a ton of posts schedule for tomorrow. The doctor did bloodwork, but he said he's going to start treating me because I have all the classic Lyme disease symptoms plus some. He said that negative tests don't necessarily mean [...]
Hi all! Just wanted to jump on here quickly to update you all. Over the weekend, I was at a Women's Retreat with my church, and now I'm in Mt Kisco, NY for my appointment with the Lyme Disease specialist later today. Thanks for reading my blog tour reviews over the last few days. I [...]
Hi everyone,I haven't updated on my pain in quite sometime, because frankly, things have just gotten worse, but I haven't made any progress with doctors.I think I've mentioned before, the running diagnosis is Fibromyalgia. Fibro is a real disease and it is horrible, however, I do not believe that is what I have anymore. My [...]

Hi everyone , Quick update, I made it safely to Arizona last night! The plane ride wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be, except I was cramped in a middle seat. Otherwise, it wasn't bad at all. My appointment with the Mayo Clinic is Monday. I'll let you know how it [...]
Hi everyone! If you're a new reader to my blog, you may not be aware that I've been experiencing chronic pain for the last year. I've written quite a few posts about it, so if you're curious about more updates, you can search through my blog and find them. On Friday, I had an MRI [...]
Hi Everyone! It's been a while since I posted about my chronic pain. I'm pretty much healed up from my ovarian cyst surgery. That was a little crazy. We initially thought it was the size of an apple, but it ended up being the size of a grapefruit. I did lose my left ovary as [...]
Hey everyone! In my journey of chronic pain, I have learned some things along the way. I'm trying to stay positive with my posts about this, but I also want to be as informative as possible. I'll be doing more of these types of posts so I don't overwhelm anyone with info. 😊 Find a [...]
