Lyme Story

- Please take the time to hear my story. I searched for 4 years, was misdiagnosed and dismissed countless times by doctors. I was misdiagnosed 10 times until I was finally tested for Lyme Disease and co-infections. I almost lost my life in the pursuit of answers while my body fell apart from this disease. Please watch to know you aren't alone and so you know you can heal through the help of a doctor educated in this disease.
This is the first 'Lyme story' on UA-cam I could relate to. The first one also, where the person had actually been positively tested by Specialty Labs and I know you and your doctor are legit, since he's the same guy who finally diagnosed me, after going without a dx for 25+ years. Before that, Lyme wasn't even on my radar and I was often told I was just depressed, crazy, etc. Thanks for sharing! So many Lyme stories are by people with no testing or who had active Lyme. I have a strong desire to share my own, but I've been afraid it will affect my business reputation. You are brave.
Oh my god... My experience with doctors and Lyme babs and ehrlichosis are nearly identical. I've been living with it for over 25 years now. Also got the probable ms diagnosis and anxiety. If you ever need to talk to someone just reach out and I will gladly share or just listen. Thank you for this video. It is life changing but in some ways made me a much more compassionate person.
Thank you for sharing ! I am a lyme sister. Can relate to your story very much. Crying watching this. People dont understand if they haven't experience this nightmare. Thankful for my family support also. I wouldn't be here either.
Hey I'm the Sister :) So glad I sent you that text!! xoxo
Thank you for accepting my request to your Facebook support group that led me to this video. I’ve just listened to your story and I have cried and cried. Thank you for your encouragement and for giving me a sliver of hope even though I’m terrified to get my hopes up.
I just found out this week that I have chronic Lyme disease and I have so many mixed emotions. I just turned 57 years old and have told friends and family I have not been ME for years. Just like everyone else I’ve been to doctor after doctor until I finally found a doctor that actually hears me, tested me and the tests came back positive for Lyme.
I’m trying to learn all I can before making hopefully the right medical decision as to which route of treatment to go. But like you and so many others. My memory, focus, and concentration are shot. Totally gone! I even went to a neurologist to get tested for early dementia and Alzheimer’s and I’m all clear there. Sometimes I can’t even spell simple words. This may be the most frustrating part because how can I advocate for my health if I can’t keep my memory and focus. I know write it down but I get so sidetracked.
Enough complaints, I just wanted to say I hate you’ve gone through this horrible experience but I’m grateful you have not let it break your spirit and crush your soul indefinitely. I’m thankful for the knowledge and the empathy that you’ve gained through it all and your willingness to share your story. I look forward to listening to the rest of your videos and thank you again. Sending you much love, prayers for complete healing, and healing vibes. ❤❤❤
I had 3 “negative” Lyme tests because the CDC guidelines state there have to at least 5 bands out of 10 to be considered positive. Now I’m living with the damage and struggle to get through the day. It has been a nightmare for me, my family and friends since 2005. I thank you for your awareness. Blessings to you Jessica.
You could have saved so much money if they just diagnosed you correctly early on and think of all the additional conditions you may not have had to go through with early treatment-something needs to be done!
Thank you for sharing your story. I’m so sorry for all that you went through. The medical community’s neglect of people with this disease is inexcusable. It makes me think of a field of ostriches with there heads in the sand. I’ve never sued anyone, but I wish I could take on the American Medical Association for their incompetence regarding Lyme Disease. I can’t imagine how different my son’s life would be if his pediatricians hadn’t brushed off his early symptoms.
Good job sticking with what you believe is right! I've recently been in a situation that felt similar to your feelings when those closest to you dismiss what you're saying, and even tell you that it's not happening or impossible. That hurts coming from someone you thought knew you for so long.
It takes inner strength and discipline to do what you've done. You are a samurai of the American healthcare system! Good job again. Many people don't survive our American healthcare system!
I feel you pain, I understand you and I'm so proud of you ❤️
Jessica we are so proud of you. I don’t know how many times I’ve shared your video already but I won’t stop I think yours is one of the best description life is for us and I think it will wake people up. I’m going to do the best I can to get justice for all of us and I wish you all the best. And those of you out there who don’t have families like myself I’m fighting for you too. Because you’re my family, and I couldn’t wish for a kinder more beautiful family. It’s just so sad how we were brought together but together they have made it, many haven’t and for those who haven’t and for those who still stand a chance I’m going to fight for them. Sending love and hugs to every lyme Warrior out there. Some are fighting warriors some are wounded and some don’t even know they’re victims of a crime. It is such a cruel world but I think we bring a lot of beauty to it
Thank you for sharing this. My symptoms came on over many years. Finally got treatment after approximately 25 years. I feel you and am so happy your life has improved. I’m still on the journey. Some of the strains are in remission but more to come.
That was so quick that it hit you mine did the same thing crazy ride never thought that this could happen are medical system is covering this up leading to this happening it’s there fault not yours you did your part they let you down we have to do something
You are so brave! I love you! YOU GIVE ALL LYME PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILY SO MUCH HOPE!❤
Thanks for sharing your journey, brave warrior. So many common threads many of us share.my differences are that I am alone, no support, financially destitute. I still believe its my responsibility to help others. Tiring, but necessary to the right thing.
I've been going through this for like 10 years. I've been gaslit by medical professionals and family , but I'm finally seeing a functional medicine doc and I do have a positive lyme band, along with several mineral deficiencies. The type of anxiety almost seizure like experiences you are talking about sound a lot like what I believed were my first panic attacks. No history of anxiety before that and the onset was sudden. I struggle daily with physical and mental symptoms, a never ending list
I think I did develop anxiety and depression over the years from struggling with all of this and not feeling seen or heard, knowing that my body was screaming at me that something is very wrong
Go carnivore you'll heal.

Wow. We have very similar stories. I am most happy that you are on your path to recovery. You give me hope and validation for my personal journey and I thank you for sharing your story.
I am flowing love and admiration to you and I am so glad you are rising1
Wow! You're an incredible woman and so inspirational. Thank you for sharing your story, Jessica.
Wow! I've had the same treatment by many doctors. Dr. Cecile Jadin saved my life.
Thank you for being valuable and sharing your story ❤ you have helped me more than you know!
Thank you so much for sharing your story with others. It's not well known about. Your a riser!
💪💚 Thank you. You make a difference daily!
Thanks so much sweet Jessica ❤️
Thank you for sharing!
Always put the insect in a ziplock bag to get it tested for Lyme.
Thanks so much for sharing!
Thank You .
💚
we are NOT the same people . No we are not .
I have this similar story. These doctor's are clueless, and should have there license taken away for lying
how are you doing now?
@@mariah2765 I was able to rid of it.i am left to heal the damage it caused to my body and brain
@@shiarafigoni1464 I’d like to stay in touch. I have so many questions. 😞
I started getting neuropathy and symptoms like you after being vaxxxd . Can you please tell me the doctor you went to I can't find anybody to help me it seems like I have too many detox blockages and I think people are scared to treat me
Very moving story and God bless you❤ have you trier Buhner's protocol? I also have lyme and it does wonders for me, please try as it is designed to treat lyme naturally ❤
Have you tried monolaurin to help your healing too? I take a lot of herbs in the Restore kit. I also take monolaurin, and Cryptolepis Sanguinolenta root. It's a journey, but I'm getting better. Sending hugs!
You have no guilt-What is wrong with our health care system? It must be what the universities are teaching or not teaching!
Hi, how are you feeling now?? Did you happened to feel strange stimuli in the brain?? I do. Practitioners blame anxiety, I never had this issue before. I am 32 years old. How is your memory and cognition now?
Hi Mariah. Yes, I have had a lot of head issues. My original doctor also blamed it on anxiety, and tried to give me anti-depressants. My memory is much improved, but still not perfect. There is a ton of information about this on our Facebook group: Rise Above Lyme.
Did it cause anemia for you?
Go carnivore you'll heal.
Does that mean carnivores don’t suffer from Lymes Disease?
@@lovefish74 Yes, to the most part. It can't live well at all doing that. You'll get most your life back. Me and others are living proof.
Lyme is a highly virulent infectious disease that needs antimicrobial treatment and immune support. And herbs (plants) have been proven over and over to be one of the most effective ways of treating it (see Stephen Buhner's books). Stop spreading carnivore cult lies. The only reason people feel better on carnivore is becuase they've eliminated all the glyphosate, heavy metals, GMO's and other pesticides found in conventional produce. But you will ultimately suffer severe nutritional deficiencies in the long term. I'm not a vegan by any stretch of the imagination either, but I am a highly trained herbalist. I just know including clean organic produce and herbs in your diet provides critical, healing nutrients in their natural whole food form (enzymes and cofactors in-tact) that can most easily be assimilated by the body and are essential for life. Eating nothing but meat and processed pills made from isolated, synthetic chemicals in a labratory for missing nutrients is absolutely not a path to long term health. If carnivore is the magic cure to everything, how do you explain Gerson Therapy curing countless cases of cancer for almost 100 years?
