    I'm a SAHM of 4 boys, living with a chronic illness. I also have a special needs child who suffers with ADHD, anxiety and High Functioning Autism.
    My name is Meredith (aka Meri) and I'm a stay at home mom of 4 boys (including twins). I also suffer from an autoimmune disease called Sjogren's Syndrome, which makes each day a little more challenging. I am also the mom of an ADHD ODD, Asperger's child.
    Like most of you out there, I'm just a regular (crazy) chic trying to survive as a mom. I'm far from perfect, but I do my best to get through each day while keeping everyone alive. I also share what works for me for managing the day to day madness of being a family of 6.
    Please feel free to leave me feedback. I love to hear from everyone!

    I agree with you! Since I am sick, I appreciate much more all the little thing. And I really appreciate the fact that I have a roof and a bed to rest in when I am not feeling good. Take care!

    I'm very thankful you've made these. I always appreciate them. I am currently in a flare and it's nice to be able to go back to your old videos and feel some comfort. Of course I don't wish you were sick but it's nice to not feel so alone.

    "Never too late to be a better version of yourself." Everyone should say that to themselves every day. Thank you!

    Thanks for this video. I try to keep my mind occupied with good thoughts. Its not easy, especially when im in pain and a flare. Its more depressing when i have to cancel and disappoint anyone
    When i can, i do what i can. Im trying not to stress myself out.

    It's hard trying to get others to understand what you are going through and the frustration you feel because you can't function like them. Yes you do appreciate things and life more. I was diagnosed with Sjorgens, fibromyalgia, arthritis, and degenerative disc disease. God bless you.

    Those people are not dying they are living with what they have. 🙂 That is how my cousin who died one moth before her 45th birthday used to say. As Mary and Peter Frey of The Frey Life say Do what you think you can’t do. You are doing the best you can with the cards you have been dealt. 🙂

    I was almost same way and then found out it was from Biotoxin illness from toxic black mold and lyme disease. It has caused C.I.R.S. in me and also causes autoimmunity. Do you currently live in a water damaged building?

      How long have you been on LDN?

    • @monkeybearmax
      @monkeybearmax 5 лет назад +1

      Horolen Restrepo I’m sorry to hear this. I started at 1.5 and had. Felt worse when increased it. Now my body is allowing a new small increase and it helps all symptoms a little bit. Less fatigue a lot less pain etc. I still am not well but just started a few months ago. Make sure u get it compounded at a really good place. And experiment with different doses. I’m not on any other drugs yet I’m gonna see how it goes although I’m approved for ivig and may add that. Also important with LDN do not eat dairy and grains basically need to on an autoimmune paleo diet and take vit d. I hope that helps. Also investigate transcutaneous vagus nerve stim. I’ll be trying that soon. Study has been done on sjogrens and many more on RA and autoimmunity. Google dr Nemechek

      @@monkeybearmax Hi thx for the feedback. I'll check that out. I was on LDN for 3yrs didn't help me much. Went thru different levels & eventually stopped it. Had a combination of daily pills it was crazy. Was told to take that along with Dr Chia's "Equilibrant" for Immune Health helped a little with fatigue but it got pricey after a while, Inosine supplement to help build muscle DNA, Vitamin D yes, B12, Fish Oil. That regime has changed for me over the years. I'm in Gabapentin (nerve pain) 800mg Ibuprofen only so much I can take. My Sjogren's levels are apparently to low for infusions so I'm stuck!
