I have something wrong with me that doctors can’t figure out, I’m partially bed ridden. I’ve heard it from some friends doctors and family, that it’s all in my head and I’m crazy.
@@vla8806 Thanks, I really appreciate it. My most severe symptoms are severe nerve pain from my back to my feet, bladder issues (I use the bathroom up to about 80times a day sometimes), sleep problems, hot flashes, constipation, brain fog and other cognitive problems, numbness in my arms, and others.
You can't be treated correctly that soon because no doctor wants to admit that you have Lyme. I had to beg to be tested and I was right. Half a year of antibiotics did nothing but make me very ill. Natural antimicrobials and diet changed made me well again. So glad she took her health into her own hands.
I just found out that I have had lyme disease for 3 years. Several specialists, unnecessary surgical procedures, and 3 years later, I finally have an answer. Unfortunately, unlike Avril, by the time they diagnosed it, it had already spread to my brain, my central nervous system, and even my heart. So far the treatments aren't helping, and I had to pay out of pocket $850 down, and $340 per month for the treatments so far. It's nice to see someone speaking out about this disease that has nearly killed me and destroyed my life. In a sea of hopelessness, it gives me a grain of hope. I can only continue to hope that more doctors will become more educated in lyme disease, so that it can be properly diagnosed and treated BEFORE it gets to the point that it's too late. There needs to be more awareness about this issue. I was literally told that by each specialist I went to that they had no idea what was wrong with me. Eventually, you do start to question your sanity. To feel like you're dying (because you are) and to have drs tell you they don't know what is wrong with you, they can't figure it out, and there is nothing they can do to help you, is VERY unsettling. This disease is debilitating. There has to be a better way....
Who ever asked for systems, I can tell you mine. I basically have arthritis realy bad, it makes my legs feel like there broken, my knees, my arms. It makes my body ach, I have lower energy than I would normally, I’m on pain killers so it can be really hard for me to know when my limes is acting up, I let it go nearly forgot I had it for about 3 years now, tho for months, my heart has Ben bothering me, I Evan had a stress test done, I’m 30c thankfully things looked okay. But they sure don’t feel okey. My heart/ hurts bad some days. My legs/back, some mornings it takes me hours to finaly get up. Now consider the fact I’m on f pain killers. And I prob shouldn’t feel any of this. That’s how I know it’s back. Hat Iv Ben ignoring it. And so I prey I can grab some anti biotics. Take them for a month or 2 and then maybe start to work out and feel good again. But right now life’s too hard. Daily, it’s a struggle.
Only about 30-40% of people get the bullseye rash. I have Lyme, and never got it. No one I know who has Lyme ever got the rash. In fact, so many people go unnoticed with Lyme because they never show a rash. Then the disease progresses and so many people are misdiagnosed with serious illnesses like chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, MS, arthritis,alzheimers, ALS, and so many more. Also, the longer you have the disease, the harder it is to treat. Sure, if you are one of the few to get diagnosed with Lyme within the first month, and get treated with antibiotics, maybe just MAYBE you will be fine. But if you are untreated within the first month or two, then you have chronic lyme, and you have it for life. Once you have Chronic Lyme, antibiotics won't cure you, or barely treat you. The normal medical world doesn't know what they are doing with Lyme, and half the doctors refuse to even believe in Lyme, let alone treat it. You will experience more symptoms than you could imagine. Extreme fatigue, joint pain, heart palpitations, rashes, brain fog, lack of focus and concentration, blurry vision, hallucinations, memory loss etc. Those are all symptoms I have experienced. There are hundreds more. Lyme is a serious disease that so many people are affected with. I hope one day people will realize this, and actually start to help people. If you would like to know more about my Lyme story, and about the disease itself, check out my UA-cam channel. I am starting a support group for kids with chronic illnesses, so less of us are alone.
I never had the classic bulls eye rash they say you have to have to have Lyme. I had thin greens circles. I asked many different Drs if they could be Lyme to be laughed at. One even saying he may as well test for prostate cancer ( I’m female )😡 Found out April 2020 after not leaving by bed for 3 years after 10 years off bad health. I missed by kids childhoods all because the Drs refuse to learn or accept Lyme 😡
“In the fullness of time, the mainstream handling of Chronic Lyme disease will be viewed as one of the most shameful episodes in the history of medicine because elements of academic medicine, elements of government and virtually the entire insurance industry have colluded to deny a disease.” - Dr. Kenneth Liegner
***** I'm sure you are in great hands :) The quote is perfect, I quote him all over the place in order to spread awareness. Hope you're on your way to some healing!
Jess D You are absolutely 100% correct. I'm praying that some politician will be able to experience this in his/her own family. Then - perhaps - there will be change. The LDSA board will have to "pay" someday.
Thank you Dr. Liegner for your comments and TRUTH. Until our family had to personally deal with this disease, we never knew the extent of disability it causes and the unwillingness from some in medicine, etc. to understand.
One of the best tools while hiking is to use odorless permethrin that you spray on your pants, shirt, socks that is effective after multiple washings. With this applied to your clothes you can place a tick on your pants and he will die belly up. Its not to expensive either. 10 bucks will treat two outfits.
BS on the "early" thing. I found the mark less than 24 hrs later and had 105 fever a few days later. Doc gave me 2-3 weeks of amoxicillen. Weak. Went dormant and came back with a vengeance and now I'm disabled. So the "early" thing is way overstated.
It is a shame that her doctors were so resistant to testing for any health issues. I'm glad that she stood up for herself and her health until the diagnosis was made! Those early symptoms are so key in getting tested for Lyme Disease! If you have an inkling that you could be suffering from this, it's best to go get tested and rule it out before the disease progresses! Best of luck to Avril in her treatment!
I know this is old but I was diagnosed with lyme disease at about the time this came out. I had no bullseye rash; the first sign that something was wrong was a crippling headache that would just not go away. Over a couple days, I began to have strong joint pain, major fatigue, and a high fever. I eventually developed large red marks all over my body, but still not a bullseye rash. My symptoms had been going on for nearly a month before I got my diagnosis, which was ultimately six weeks after I suspect I was first exposed. This wasn't soon enough for me to completely rid myself of lyme, and I suspect I'll have this disease forever, but I am so lucky to have a doctor that believed me from the very first visit that this was something serious. Lyme disease is usually not checked for even when all the symptoms are present because it looks so much like a typical flu. Increasing awareness about the signs beyond the infamous bullseye rash could save so many people from such a devastating disease.
I feel her pain and been laughed at by Drs for years for asking if the green marks in my legs could be Lyme!! Found out April 2020 I have Lyme after not leaving my bed for 3 whole years.
I have chronic Lyme too. It's a devestating illness that claims lives. And it does not take 36 hours to get Lyme! You can get it as soon as the tick taps into your blood stream.
this is an example to all celebs out there...how THEY should deal with their health issues...if they got problems...just look to other people for support and don't give up hope. don't hide away and give into despair because that only feeds the sickness. Avril is a huge part of my life, when I was suffering from depression as a teen she got me through it, other music helped too, not just hers but she was the core I won't lie. she is me hero and idol and when I am struggling with my own ambitions in life I look to her and wonder "what would she do". the fact she fights on through stuff like this just proves my point.
I'm glad she took it upon herself to find out what was wrong. Doctors do this with so many people. Seriously what the hell are they getting paid for and telling her she's just crazy. How would that help jeez. I never new about this until it popped up on my stream. Glad she's better. She's awesome 💚
oh my god, i feel so bad for her... i have lymes too, it was diaognosed late but i am doing okaish now, but i'll be stuck with it for the rest of my life because it was diaognosed late.. i have all the symptoms now but i wont die
THE BULL'S EYE RASH IS NOT ALWAYS PRESENT!!!! I thought that I was ok because no rash. MOST PEOPLE DON"T EVER SEE ANY SYMPTOMS EXCEPT THE PAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The night sweats!!!!! AND joint pain moths to years later.
I thought mine was a giant mosquito bite. Afterall, I'm in Texas so Lyme disease wasn't the first thing on my mind. Telling people to wear long sleeves like this reporter just won't happen in 100°F weather.
I agree with the mis-information this guy just gave. I got my tick bite in Longview Wa., and the bug was not imbedded 36 hours. Our doctors in the NW say I can't have Lyme because there is no lyme in the NW. I mean get real. It just takes common logic to realize that ticks ride on animals that migrate, birds, mice, deer, etc. These guys are educated dummies but do not have that common sense? Now because of them I have chronic Lyme. If they would have been educated in Lyme I could have been cured as I went to the doctor right after the bite with the rash and flu like symptoms. It took a year and half to get diagnosed. By that time I couldn't walk. I thought I was going to die with all the symptoms and pain I was in and now it's been 5 years and I am still fighting.
Oh my gosh! That is so frustrating! I live by Mount Rainier, not too far from you and have chronic Lyme disease as well. I was bit as a child, went to the doctor. They removed it I still got Lyme disease. They have found it on every continent except Antarctica and in over 80 countries. Pretty sure it’s all over the US as well.
And my husband's lynes came from a regular old tick. It doesn't matter what kind of tick it is anymore. All kinds of ticks from all over the continent carry lymes. And only about 30% of lymes cases present with a ring rash. Be vigilant folks!
I read on the internet that she was a heavy cigarette smoker and with her schedule she was exhausted. This could definitely be, but Lyme....very horrible. I guess even the person who doesn't smoke, drink and takes good care of themselves can still be taken down from this terrible disease. Pray for her...she's always been great.
I can't wait until Avril is better. If I have to wait for 5 years or more soI can hear new songs from her, so be it. I still LOVE her old songs, get well soon!
I don't see how celebraties are more Important or significant than normal people. Why even bother report this on the news when there are other people who had worse cases of Lyme disease and recovered.
Perhaps, but there is no greater evil. Everyone goes through tough shit. We can only work together to prevent/treat it. Based on our society's culture, a celebrity will get more attention than the average citizen. Yet, she's at least helping those with Lyme Disease. It's not a fun one either.
Yeah I understand how you think about the celebrity thing but look at it this way. People who listen to Avril and don't know about Lymes now know about it.
Stefani Sebastian I have seen the documentary buy no one talks about how to get rid of it effectively. Right now am doing a documentary movie for three months in Rosarito Beach in Mexico on treating Lyme with Apitherapy. We. Will be recording the progress with several patients from Massachussetts a 19 y.old and 69 y.old I really want to spread this information to as many people as possible because I am not charging the patients in this instance therefore extending an invitation for any one with Lyme to take advantage of this temporary treatment with Apitherapy during the documentary at no charge. We as Apitherapist have more than 25 years treating all illnesses with magnificent positive results. Please tell those you know that have Lyme to take advantage of it. rubenberthaud2001@hotmail.com
I did survive neurolyme and got antobiotics only after one year. It was horrible. A hell. The Situation in Austria where I live is a scandal - people do not get right diagnosis and treatment. Now I am ok but my brain clearly suffered from the infection then. Hope Avril and other people affected get healthy again !!!
My wife went undiagnosed with Lyme for many years, until finally getting a diagnosis last year... but getting better seems to be the hardest part. I set up a GOFUNDME for her, because not everyone can afford the treatments. www.gofundme.com/katherinelyme Thanks to everyone who spreads the truth about this horrible disease.
I'm glad that Avril was able to figure it out before it got too late because I think it was effecting her vocal cords as well and she wasn't able to sing. In fact there were reports that she may have died from Lyme disease. But I'm glad that she's back doing what she loves to do and as a fan of hers I'm glad that she's back to where she wants to be
When you have it you know. Doctors kept telling me I must have covid, even though I tested negative. No. It feels like nothing else. 3rd ER visit in 1 week, with Bell's Palsy, I had lost 15 lbs. in 8 days. I was dying. They admitted me & saved my life, but it's been a 2 year struggle since.
Oh my gosh, so true! The misinformation is flat out dangerous. You do not have 36 hours! It can reach the brain within 24. And even the CDC website will tell you if you have the rash, you have the disease. The test tests for antibodies, which are not present for three or four weeks. After that time, you already have chronic Lyme disease anyways…
Wow!!! I just found out today I have lyme disease after 3 months. I had to withdraw from college in the Fall from it. First thing I that popped up when i typed in lymes disease was this video. Everything Avril said is dead on. Especially about the doctor's and everyone thinking your crazy. Even the brushing her teeth part! If anyone out there is suffering from it or may think they have it, hang in there and God Bless😇🙏♥️✌️✝️...
Just got diagnosed with chronic Lyme 3 months ago through my Naturopath because main stream Dr’s think it’s all in your head!!! Still in 2022!!!! 🤬🤬 He wants me to do some $5,000 treatment that isn’t guaranteed to work OR relieve my symptoms! I think I will be looking into some other all natural remedies. I have also just cut out sugar, NO FRUIT! A low histamine diet and I’m also intermittent fasting. The food sensitivities are horrible. I’m down to eating MAYBE 10 foods. I am also looking into Near Infrared sauna 3 X a week because I’ve heard great benefits in the detoxifying of your body that way. I hope I can get some relief because most days I just wanna die. This is no way to live. I’m barely surviving!
I keep hearing this erroneous statement that this thing has to be on you for this extended period of time the one that gave me the bullseye rash and Lyme disease wasn't even on me for 24 hours
Get well avril ilove you dont die pls Well all here to support you even u dont know me im praying for wish you appreciate our efforts for you we love you
Mindbender223 When hey say it is only a tick bite that causes it, they are lying. Any vector-borrne insect can transmit the disease. Regardless of what the "doctor" says.
EXACTLY HOW IT HAS BEEN FOR ME! HAVE TO DO EVERYTHING ALONE, DOCTORS WONT LISTEN TREATING ME LIKE AS IF I JUST WANT ATTENTION OR SOMETHING! AND NOT EVERYONE GETS THAT GODDAMN BULLSEYE RASH, OR MAYBE NOT SEE IT!
This is horrible. I have had such a bad time. It's everywhere in the US. Don't let them lie to you! I had a bullseye rash and didn't think anything of it. Here, 3 years later, I'm weak, feel like I've been hit by a truck. Numb, burning tingling. Cognitive and neurological problems. And now my heart is messing up. Negative blood test. Still fighting. No diagnosis so that means no medicine. I'm about to fall over today
I find her story troubling because she never found a tick on her or even noticed a bite. I believe she's been given bad information . I don't think she has lyme disease
So please tell me how she's in her 30's and looks like she's 16 still. She's so freaking beautiful. At which cosmetic store can I purchase her genes?😂😘😍
If you haven't had it very long you have a very good chance for total recovery. Even a year is not too long. See an LLMD asap. Try to keep out of our chronic Lyme club. You do not want to join. Please stay out of our club. God bless. Get treated and get well. Don't want to see you back here again.
When she said doctors thought she was crazy I can so relate! That’s what happens a lot with people with autoimmune disease
I have something wrong with me that doctors can’t figure out, I’m partially bed ridden. I’ve heard it from some friends doctors and family, that it’s all in my head and I’m crazy.

I guess even the person who doesn't smoke, drink and takes good care of themselves can still be taken down from this terrible disease. Pray for her...she's always been great.
I can't wait until Avril is better. If I have to wait for 5 years or more soI can hear new songs from her, so be it. I still LOVE her old songs, get well soon!
So I ***
my bestie and I literally reflecting this together and it's still resonates us! Avril did amazing and is a fighter!
Keep Holding On Avril !
she is such a huge voice to the voiceless :)
You are all experts on your own body. Only YOU know when something doesn't feel right.
I don't see how celebraties are more
Important or significant than normal people. Why even bother report this on the news when there are other people who had worse cases of Lyme disease and recovered.
Perhaps, but there is no greater evil. Everyone goes through tough shit. We can only work together to prevent/treat it. Based on our society's culture, a celebrity will get more attention than the average citizen. Yet, she's at least helping those with Lyme Disease. It's not a fun one either.
Anonymous Male I guess
Julia Binarystar Stop complaining and be happy that a celebrity is spreading the word.
Julia Binarystar Maybe because no one reads MY diary entries on living with Lyme.
Yeah I understand how you think about the celebrity thing but look at it this way. People who listen to Avril and don't know about Lymes now know about it.
So scary to think a little tick can cause so much problems. Everyone please be careful. Prayers go out to you.
I love avril lavigne!!!!!!

I have seen the documentary buy no one talks about how to get rid of it effectively. Right now am doing a documentary movie for three months in Rosarito Beach in Mexico on treating Lyme with Apitherapy. We. Will be recording the progress with several patients from Massachussetts a 19 y.old and 69 y.old I really want to spread this information to as many people as possible because I am not charging the patients in this instance therefore extending an invitation for any one with Lyme to take advantage of this temporary treatment with Apitherapy during the documentary at no charge. We as Apitherapist have more than 25 years treating all illnesses with magnificent positive results. Please tell those you know that have Lyme to take advantage of it. rubenberthaud2001@hotmail.com

I did survive neurolyme and got antobiotics only after one year. It was horrible. A hell. The Situation in Austria where I live is a scandal - people do not get right diagnosis and treatment. Now I am ok but my brain clearly suffered from the infection then. Hope Avril and other people affected get healthy again !!!
“Take the antibiotics in the first month and you’ll be fine.”
Tell that to the biofilm.
Exactly
Wish you the best Avril, we love you.
My wife went undiagnosed with Lyme for many years, until finally getting a diagnosis last year... but getting better seems to be the hardest part. I set up a GOFUNDME for her, because not everyone can afford the treatments.

Thanks to everyone who spreads the truth about this horrible disease.
I'm glad that Avril was able to figure it out before it got too late because I think it was effecting her vocal cords as well and she wasn't able to sing. In fact there were reports that she may have died from Lyme disease. But I'm glad that she's back doing what she loves to do and as a fan of hers I'm glad that she's back to where she wants to be
We are here for you Avril!
When you have it you know. Doctors kept telling me I must have covid, even though I tested negative. No. It feels like nothing else. 3rd ER visit in 1 week, with Bell's Palsy, I had lost 15 lbs. in 8 days. I was dying. They admitted me & saved my life, but it's been a 2 year struggle since.
Get well soon Avril!!
Unfortunately, they aren't giving the entire story.
thanks for sharing Soko Shoko
I've had it for 35 years. Just diagnosed a month ago finally.
What were your symptoms?
GETWELL AVRIL ♥ We are here .
Now we know. Stay strong Avril. We love you!
avril ily
Avril Lavigne.... please get well soon... i will pray for you everday ;(
Wow. That guy at the end is irritatingly misinformed.
Oh my gosh, so true! The misinformation is flat out dangerous. You do not have 36 hours! It can reach the brain within 24. And even the CDC website will tell you if you have the rash, you have the disease. The test tests for antibodies, which are not present for three or four weeks. After that time, you already have chronic Lyme disease anyways…
I’m so glad she is healthy and back🤘🎸💆♀️
I am 99% sure I have it but my doctors refuse to take me seriously. I don't know where to go next.
She is so brave she fought with this 💙
Why won't doctors start taking this seriously?!!?!?!!?
So so sad. I pray to the Lord she recovers100%?
I'll pray for you get well soon.
I asked my mom who is a doctor if there is any reason why they wouldn't test her for Lyme disease and she said there is no reason not to
Wow!!! I just found out today I have lyme disease after 3 months. I had to withdraw from college in the Fall from it. First thing I that popped up when i typed in lymes disease was this video. Everything Avril said is dead on. Especially about the doctor's and everyone thinking your crazy. Even the brushing her teeth part! If anyone out there is suffering from it or may think they have it, hang in there and God Bless😇🙏♥️✌️✝️...
All my support to her
Don't blindly rely on doctors rather do research by yourself before any treatment.
you must feel better Avril :(!!! i have so much things need to tell you :(
She is so beautiful inside and out. Chad is a lucky ducky
Your awareness is awesome, stay strong ❤
My mom might have it . I’m so afraid. I’m praying 😢
Thank you helpful.
I'm going to the doctor tomorrow to check for that
Just got diagnosed with chronic Lyme 3 months ago through my Naturopath because main stream Dr’s think it’s all in your head!!! Still in 2022!!!! 🤬🤬
He wants me to do some $5,000 treatment that isn’t guaranteed to work OR relieve my symptoms! I think I will be looking into some other all natural remedies. I have also just cut out sugar, NO FRUIT! A low histamine diet and I’m also intermittent fasting. The food sensitivities are horrible. I’m down to eating MAYBE 10 foods. I am also looking into Near Infrared sauna 3 X a week because I’ve heard great benefits in the detoxifying of your body that way. I hope I can get some relief because most days I just wanna die. This is no way to live. I’m barely surviving!
Omg how sad I am as her diehard fan
NOOOO AVRIL CUT OUT HER FAVORITE FOOD! PIZZZZAAA!
Oh my god I love Avril so much :(
No antibiotic will help you if you've had it for a long time. It is absolutely the hardest thing to get rid of if it ever even can be gotten rid of
Rife machine can get rid of it
I keep hearing this erroneous statement that this thing has to be on you for this extended period of time the one that gave me the bullseye rash and Lyme disease wasn't even on me for 24 hours
Get well avril ilove you dont die pls
Well all here to support you even u dont know me im praying for wish you appreciate our efforts for you we love you
She must have walked 1,000 miles to get that tick.
Tick bite or Mosquito bite or Flea bite?
Mindbender223 When hey say it is only a tick bite that causes it, they are lying. Any vector-borrne insect can transmit the disease. Regardless of what the "doctor" says.
+Mindbender223 I'm inclined to agree
+Mindbender223 that is most probably not true
May04bwu Why not?
+Mindbender223 no comment?
Hi, does someone know who is the doctor here on this show ? Thanks a lot.
The bullseye rash is bullsht, stop it! Lyme needs to be diagnosed thru a spinal tap no matter how vague the symptoms may be.
nuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!!!!!! why!!!!!!!!! good thing shes better
Wait a second.. plant-based diet and fitness cures this??
EXACTLY HOW IT HAS BEEN FOR ME! HAVE TO DO EVERYTHING ALONE, DOCTORS WONT LISTEN TREATING ME LIKE AS IF I JUST WANT ATTENTION OR SOMETHING! AND NOT EVERYONE GETS THAT GODDAMN BULLSEYE RASH, OR MAYBE NOT SEE IT!
1 I hope this message gets out there to who needs to end their Lyme disease.
Did anyone catch the Freudian slip at 4:08?
avril be healthy!
youre always in our hearts
This is horrible. I have had such a bad time. It's everywhere in the US. Don't let them lie to you! I had a bullseye rash and didn't think anything of it. Here, 3 years later, I'm weak, feel like I've been hit by a truck. Numb, burning tingling. Cognitive and neurological problems. And now my heart is messing up. Negative blood test. Still fighting. No diagnosis so that means no medicine. I'm about to fall over today
I find her story troubling because she never found a tick on her or even noticed a bite. I believe she's been given bad information . I don't think she has lyme disease
Stay strong avril
hope all my comments are not erased again
i will pray foryou avril
I've got symptoms 7 years later
I had it for half a year and then found it during a regular physical.
So please tell me how she's in her 30's and looks like she's 16 still. She's so freaking beautiful. At which cosmetic store can I purchase her genes?😂😘😍
I love her ♥
If you haven't had it very long you have a very good chance for total recovery. Even a year is not too long. See an LLMD asap. Try to keep out of our chronic Lyme club. You do not want to join. Please stay out of our club. God bless. Get treated and get well. Don't want to see you back here again.
I LOVE YOU AVRIL
