Day 6 of Low Dose Alpha Interferon

Well it's Day 6 of the treatment. I haven't really had a bad herx (compared to previous herxes where I felt like I was DYING!) so i don't know if that's bad or good! I did get an unusual fever spike up to 100 (usually my fevers tend to waver between 99.2 and 99.8) and I also had my rash reappear on my hands for a few days then go away.

But other than that, I've continued to have the same icky Lyme symptoms (achy joints, insomnia, brain fog, muscle weakness in my legs, blah blah blah). I think I remember hearing something about around Day 8 I might notice a difference so we'll see.

Tomorrow (actually in 21 minutes!) is my birthday so it would be nice if my Lyme doesn't flare up and I can actually enjoy it. My daughter is going to make me some sugar free cupcakes (I can't eat sugar right now) so she's going to surprise me with something. Mmmmm.


Also I told my mom about the rebounder trampolines and the health benefits for people with chronic illnesses and she said she would buy me one for my bday! yay! So right now I'm researching them to make sure I get the best one. I found a great article about it and wanted to share it with you so I'll include it in separate post.


Hope all my Lyme buddies are well and I think of you guys all the time hoping that your treatments are helping.
