I have had all of the same symptoms since I was a young girl, with the exception of asthma. I’ve always thought “I wonder if everybody feels this bad all of the time, or is it just me”. Thank You for this video, it helped me to confirm that what I’m feeling is real and I’m not out of my mind.
Been having issues with my inner ear/ dizziness problems for months. Met a person who said there's a good chance I have Lyme disease. At first, I merely brushed him off as a quack and thought my doctors knew best. After going from ENT to ENT and them dismissing it as allergies, I'm starting to give Lyme Disease a second look. My biggest issue is cost. None of these LLMDs takes insurance and of course none of these places offer any type of discount/ payment plan. Medicine is medicine I guess, and they only care about money.
That’s one of the biggest hurdles in reaching a Lyme diagnosis. The cost. The insurance companies don’t want to work with doctors who actually heal people! Healthy people aren’t good for business. So unfortunately most Lyme literate physicians don’t accept insurance and the bills are high. You may be able to ask around to see if they offer government assistance with Lyme testing. My office does this.
Thank you for making this video. I was diagnosed with Lyme disease last week. The more I learn about it the more certain I am that my son has had it for many years. So much of your story sounds just like my son’s. He went to get tested this morning. I would love to hear more about your experience what is working for you.
Thank you!!!! I too have Lyme’s & Babesia +. & had it for a long time before I was dxd. Had a lumbar puncture for another neurological problem. Lo & behold Lyme’s & Babesia found in my cerebral spinal fluid! Actually in the past few weeks I have a twitching above my left eye often! And I get all kinds of skin issues, bruising, bumps, feeling crawling, skin even sensitive to top sheet. I have peripheral neuropathy & pains, burning, tingling, long term insomnia & fatigue/ malaise. photophobia. All HAs. Incontinence, in my 20s told I had IBS but mostly very rapid uncontrollable . Don’t know if connected but I also abscesses in my sinuses & my body is full of inflammation. I really appreciate your story cause I have a cousin who’s been living with severe anemia & all kinds of pains when she can’t even lift her arm. And she does live in Ct! ( But I’ve now been told it’s worldwide! & can now also be spread by birds( from a documentary). I want to share your video With this cousin & some members of my family. [Yes I’ve watchedDr Horowitz & he’s amazing]. AND Congrats on your new baby may you all have fun & good health growing up together!😆🌈💕❤️🩵💟
Thank you for putting this out there and helping raise awareness! A similar story to so many of us, I also had the evil trifecta of Borrelia, Babesia, and Bartonella.
For ten years, I suffered from Lyme disease. The doctors said I would not recover. I was in agony daily, and I watched others die around me with late stage diseases. Prayer healed me when medicine failed me. God fully healed my disease. When Jesus found me I got baptised and started following the bible. God gave me a new family. My life is full of meaning. My heart is full of gratitude. I want to love others and share his work. You are unique to God and you are special to Him. Don't listen to the people who hate and talk negatively. Seek the Lord while he may be found (Isaiah 55:6-9) God is calling you to Himself Psalm 41:3 “The Lord sustains them on their sickbed and restores them from their bed of illness.”
So, I've been trying everything to recover even fifty percent. What I keep hearing is "your the one who keeps telling people to " give it to God, Trust the Lord, Armor On", you tell many each day to read their Bible, you pray for the sick." "What?" It's a no brainer. Why am I being a hypocrite when I know He can heal me. I am weak in the trust department. Thank you so much for your comment, and I'm thankful for this video. Pray for me! Mahalo! GOD Bless! 🪔🙏🪔🙏🪔🙏🫒🕊️🫒🤺
Thank you for sharing! You're so articulate and thank you for enlightening us about this disease that is more than common and overlooked by the main-stream physicians. More as it happens...
Thank you so much for putting this out!! I think I have Lyme as well and have an appt with a functional medicine doc next week. I’ve been searching and searching for a video where someone states their actual symptoms…and I found you! I have many of the same symptoms you did so this gives me hope that I may be on the right track. Thank you for sharing and your sweet baby is beautiful! I hope you are doing well.
You’re so welcome! I’m happy I could help. I am doing well, I had a “flair” after having Covid but I am doing great now. I’m glad you’re going to see a functional medicine doctor because you will actually receive treatment and find answers. Good luck on your journey and I hope you can heal! 🙏🏼
I hope you are well :). Lyme is known as “the great imitator” and can present differently in everyone. My playlist Lyme playlist is now insanely huge so I will likely just start a dedicated channel lol. “Rise Above Lyme” on YT also has a Facebook group that is extremely helpful, along with “Gen Lyme” has Meetup’s and a channel as well. Let me know if I can help you and I hope you are getting answers. Testing is unreliable so don’t let a negative test throw you off. Sandy
Sometimes it felt like all over but it was very pronounced around my face, hands and arms. I feel like it even affected my hair. I imagined there was some kind of biofilm enveloping my skin and the crazy part was, when I sprayed hydrogen peroxide on the affected areas, it would bubble and fizz. When I sprayed on an area that didn’t feel “crawly” it just stayed like water. So I truly believe it isn’t fully psychosomatic, there is some physical problem happening. I discovered the hydrogen peroxide thing because I tried putting nearly everything on my skin and never found relief. I will say the longer I stayed awake, the worse it got. So I’m the morning it was usually manageable but by bedtime I was consumed by the feeling.
Yes, I had them removed in the middle of the year of being the sickest. I also had a root canal a few years before- of course I didn’t know how dangerous those things were before so I am seeing a holistic dentist soon to get my root canal removed!
Recently diagnosed after 28 years of multiple problems, never sourced, only treated with drugs. Not a wise thing to do always find the source. Finally😂, a wise doctor suggested the VIBRANT WELLNESS test, which is for discovering so many infectious and tick-borne illnesses. It is worth the money. Find a doctor who will get the test for you. My Lyme has settled now in my cerebellum, the center for balance issues. I have ridiculous strange balance problems, as if walking on a bouncing ship or trampoline. Recent new treatment for Lyme, which I just started is called S.O.T. Very successful in Europe and starting in America. Done by infusion. Keep seeking. Don’t give up. Pray much!!!!!
What treatment helped you I'm having and have had symptoms from a very young age and now I feel completely debilitating has affected my facial muscles nerves drooping on onside of my face that comes and goes
I’m sorry you’ve been struggling! I know how isolating it can be. I was diagnosed the day after I found out I was pregnant so the safest route my doctor suggested was to take azithromycin for my entire pregnancy. I had to stop taking it after birth because it isn’t good to breastfeed on it. But my symptoms were gone by then. I’ve read that having a baby also detoxes your body of heavy metals, so I believe that helped a lot. So long - term antibiotics, heavy metal detox and most importantly moving out of a water damaged building helped me immensely.
Do you mind saying your dosage etc and how long it took for you to feel well? Like you l was diagnosed with sciatica at like 16yrs old which we know is ridiculous now and the crawling sensation on the face, the costochondritis, you've helped me to tick a lot of boxes. Thank you
Hey, Fernando! I’m sorry you’re having health issues. So my doctor’s office closed after covid, unfortunately, but I have seen a new practice. They are called Oasis Family Medicine in Glendale and they’re very affordable for an integrative medicine practice. I hope this helps!
Omg, I'm scared. I had a tick bite in April, sick as a dog for a week, costrochrnditis often, and much more. I had a bullseye rash, and pics of it moving through my body. Now what the heck???😢😢😢
Go see a naturopath immediately! You may still be able to kill all the Lyme before it’s too late. Just google “functional medicine dr near me” or “lyme literate md near me”. Don’t make an appointment with an infectious disease dr though… they will only gaslight you and waste your time. Or, they may decide to treat you but they won’t be thorough. Chances are they will test you and it won’t be in your blood during time of draw so they will tell you they’re fine. It’s not, the spirochetes have likely already burrowed into your organs and tissues.
@julianawhitaker9787 Thank you, Thank you. Thank you! I really appreciate your information and response. As I sit and cry bc the medical community abandoned me, Thank you again. God Bless
I’m sorry you’ve been struggling for so long.If you type into google “your city / Texas” and “Lyme literate md near me” you should find an integrative medicine doctor, holistic dr, functional medicine Md (any of those 3 can help you). But avoid any name that comes up if they are infectious disease doctors or any other traditional type of doctor. They are owned by the pharmaceutical industry and have no incentive to actually detect or treat your Lyme + coinfections. if you live in a very small town, just type the nearest bigger city into the search bar.
@@pamalbert5750 you’re so welcome! If he doesn’t work out, just make sure you find one that is “integrative,” “holistic” or “functional” medicine, NOT “infectious disease specialist” only… I wasted time with them!
Hi I'm in Los Angeles thank you for your story can you recommend your doctor or private message me. I can't find a good doctor out here that deals with lyme . I've been to the best in LA . all my neurological problems started a year ago after the vaxxx I'm having horrible functioning and I spent thousands of dollars and I can't get the answer I'm done a lot of tests too. They think it has to do with mold but on some of my tests I'm in the middle for Bartonella and one of my tests came out positive for Lyme but I'm so toxic right now no one wants to touch me.
I haven’t been on RUclips air a long time so I’m not sure how to message you. Let me know how I can message you. I’m on Facebook and instagram as well.
@@seanhunt2365sorry for the late response. I saw Dr. Joseph Sciabbarrasi but unfortunately his office closed! I have no idea why. There are many good docs on the west side but unfortunately not many who are affordable. If you want something affordable, try Oasis Family medicine in Glendale!

Have you had your wisdom teeth removed, and if so how long ago?
Yes, I had them removed in the middle of the year of being the sickest. I also had a root canal a few years before- of course I didn’t know how dangerous those things were before so I am seeing a holistic dentist soon to get my root canal removed!
costochondritis was my first sympton also!! getting tested for lyme at this moment.
