For years, I battled with what felt like a never-ending list of "mystery illnesses"— stacked on top of diagnoses such as breast implant illness, mold illness, a genetic defect (MTHFR gene) and more.
I did several trips to Mayo Clinics, hundreds of thousands of dollars in various remedies and treatments through both Western Medicine as well as Eastern.
Each diagnosis came with its own set of confusing and frustrating symptoms, making it hard to figure out what was really going on with my health. Fatigue, brain fog, joint pain—none of it seemed connected to any specific thing at first, but I knew deep down that something wasn’t right.
Until I was eventually diagnosed with Lyme disease. It can be tough to identify because the symptoms mimic so many other conditions!! It can show up as extreme tiredness, memory problems, random joint pain, or even odd skin issues.
Many people don’t even recall being bitten by a tick, which makes diagnosing it even trickier. For me, it was like piecing together a puzzle that took far too long to solve. Some people even questioned if it was “all in my head”. So frustrating!!
Right now, I’m spending two weeks at Sanoviv in Mexico, undergoing natural treatments. The first few days were rough. But, I am so happy to share that I am seeing improvements already and my doctors are pleased!! This place is incredible, with a holistic approach to healing and an amazing focus on personalized care, stunning environment, knowledgeable holistic medical professionals, and great people.
If you’re dealing with chronic, unexplainable symptoms that have you feeling less like yourself, it’s worth fighting to figure it out. Advocate for yourself. Do whatever it takes to get your health back. You have ONE BODY to live in, for the rest of your life. Don’t quit, even if others don’t believe you.
Trust your instincts—if your body is telling you something’s wrong, listen. For me, getting the right diagnosis and treatment has made all the difference and I finally feel like I am on the road to healing and getting “me” back!
I’ll keep you updated!!
