[@CyndiMoncada]

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.

[@RoseOfGrace333]

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.

[@TheMIlagroShow]

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 KZbin channel. I am starting a support group for kids with chronic illnesses, so less of us are alone.

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.

[@anthonyromano8565]

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.

I recovered from Lyme disease. My symptoms: bone crushing fatigue, racing heart, night sweats, confusion, loss of balance, hallucinations, depression, nerve pain all over, frozen joints, flu like feeling, loss of body temperature regulation, sensitivity to sound, sensitivity to light, sensitivity to smell, headaches, migraines, muscle twitching, spasms, a weird electrical vibrations throughout my body, shortness of breath, insomnia. I'm sure there are other symptoms I missed. Its torture... Best way to describe itRarely anyone ever sees the rash or the tick. They make it sound like its so easy to treat. The problem is that by the time you diagnose Lyme disease, it has become chronic for most. I too am glad I went through it. I don't take my health for granted or life anymore.

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.

[@alwynlamrock6356]

I don't mean this in hate or anything, but in all honesty, Avril doesn't know what real suffering is. She got over it quickly, and made a full recovery. She is fortunate. I know someone who has been in severe debilitating pain w/ paralysis from an injury. It has been so bad she would cry and even scream from the pain, and it left her housebound, and she struggled this way for five years, with no family help or a cure. . .and she was treated very badly by doctors and nurses, although her case is legit, and had two massive surgeries. I have so much empathy and respect for her, because this is what true misery is. Thus, Avril doesn't know what it is to truly suffer; not to mention, she also milked this for quite a bit of attention she didn't deserve. I have no respect for her. I wish that the public wouldn't coddle people like her, when there are so many in much much worse conditions in this world, including the woman with pain.

[@alwynlamrock6356]

You misunderstand me, and you are judging, . . . .thus, not the one to think before you speak. I think of all my words before opening my mouth. Who said anything about competition? I am talking about accurate PERSPECTIVE and accurate discernment. Your words don't really show evidence of this. Do you know what "Triage" is? It is the crucial process that wounded people go through in medical facilities to determine who gets treated first, based on whoever has the MOST severe injuries and suffering. The most severe get treated and attended to first, whereas the ones with lesser issues get treated last. If all got treated equally, this is would be injustice to those who suffered more. Avril was not sick long, and she did not have horrendous and excruciating pain, she was not financially strained, and she made a FULL recovery. Whereas my friend had a devastating spinal cord injury, permanent paralysis, 5 YEARS of crippling pain, financial hardship, and no cure. She will never run or dance again, and this was part of her dream. Based on this evidence, my friend's situation is much, much worse, and acknowledging this reality and respecting the suffering of people like her is called having correct perspective, and it is fair, and shows respect for what she and others like her have suffered. Therefore, because of this, those with the lesser issues like Avril should not be receiving equal support, respect and attention to those with much more traumatic and painful situations (like my friend). Consequently, as well, this makes Avril the one with with a sense of entitlement. THINK about this, and have some heart to hear what I am saying.

The first most important thing to do is to get any mercury amalgams out of your mouth by only a holistic or biological dentist and not a conventional dentist.The mercury amalgams are the silver fillings that dentists originally said for years had no mercury in them but are made of just silver.They then admitted there is mercury in them but they don't leak any mercury out of them.Well now there is scientific fact that they constantly release mercury and other metal in the body.The university of Calgary has a video proving this theory and it is called The smoking gun.Its on You tube and the American dental association hates them for exposing the truth.

you are right Jess B

Tick bite or Mosquito bite or Flea bite?

[@Mindbender223]

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.

[@melissamoris166]

+Mindbender223 I'm inclined to agree

[@May04bwu]

+Mindbender223 that is most probably not true

[@Mindbender223]

May04bwu Why not?

[@revansword2782]

+Mindbender223 no comment?

The bullseye rash is bullsht, stop it! Lyme needs to be diagnosed thru a spinal tap no matter how vague the symptoms may be.

[@leannshort2211]

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!

[@stacyrobbins3539]

So so sad. I pray to the Lord she recovers100%?

[@veriticus]

My mom might have it . I’m so afraid. I’m praying 😢

[@peggywingenbac6812]

“Take the antibiotics in the first month and you’ll be fine.” Tell that to the biofilm.

[@michellelovesanimals2237]

Exactly

[@fourshore502]

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!

[@samkitty5894]

I am 99% sure I have it but my doctors refuse to take me seriously. I don't know where to go next.

[@terrydillon9323]

Thank you helpful.

[@salemtrinity444]

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

[@LittleBlackStarVEVO]

Omg how sad I am as her diehard fan

[@avrilgabylavigne318]

[@adawong6543]

Why in the heck are doctors always like this, specifically about Lyme?

[@revansword2782]

+Ada Wong idk....it is a catch-all disease thats why. the disease has many symptoms, just about any symptom you have for anything , MIGHT be lymes.

[@cpfcjames7504]

I've got symptoms 7 years later

[@susanotaer8568]
