    I was misdiagnosed for 32 years, I used to have crackling in my neck and so much pain, but it did get better with treatment. I don’t know if it will ever completely be gone, but life is more manageable. 😊

    I’m 64 and was kinda diagnosed with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue about 1 year ago. As far as I can tell, I developed this after having Covid in April 2020. It’s been a nightmare. To me you are very young but you have great insight.

    Have you ever looked at Mikhaila Peterson's channel? She dealt with chronic issues between ages 8 and 23. She interviews a lot of doctors and talks about the things that worked for her. I currently don't have any chronic issues but I enjoy hearing about the research.

    Hi! Thank you so much for sharing! I'm currently in my 3rd year of pain and look for answers. I have been told I have fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. I did have the Lyme disease blood test at my regular practitioners office but can you tell me what the more extensive test is called or how I can find out more? This really could be it for me!

    • @kimberlyreitsma
      @kimberlyreitsma  2 роки тому +1

      Of course! :) The more specialized blood tests to test for Lyme Disease are called the Igenex Lyme Western Blot or the Immunoblot test. The more conventional tests are no good because their determination for a positive Lyme disease result is way too high. The test my primary care physician gave me came back "negative." Oh, if only I knew better.
      And here are two great websites for you to learn more about Lyme Disease:
      www.ilads.org/
      www.lymedisease.org/
      I hope that helps!

      @kimberlyreitsma  2 роки тому

      When I did the Igenex Lyme Western Blot test, my integrative doctor had to order a boxed kit which I took to LabCorp to get my blood drawn using the provided vials. Then I had to mail the box back to Igenex myself. That was a good eight years ago, so I do not know if the process had changed since then. So don't be surprised if you have to do an extra couple steps! :) Good luck!
