Your description of feeling mad that you just wanted to go sit on the deck is exactly how I would feel. And I probably would go sit on the deck.<br /><br />I got Lyme Disease in the backyard of a house in the Philadelphia suburbs. About 3 weeks before I got sick I saw a deer the size of a horse leap through the yard. I am so thankful that I got a bulls eye rash and a fever. I caught it and feel like one of the lucky few.<br /><br />But I no longer go camping with friends or go hiking like I did as a kid. The woods were one of my favorite places on Earth. Now I only enjoy them by gazing out the car window as Jeremy and I drive around south Jersey and PA.<br /><br />But who knows if my thyroid and digestion problems aren't related to having had Lyme at one time. My health is a mystery and I feel like I'll never know why mine went downhill. but like you wrote every day is getting better.<br /><br />Thanks for this great blog Amy.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04080512387097850153noreply@blogger.com
