Seems very quiet on the board (still) so sad. I stopped taking the Doxycycline and improved within 2 days and I'm avoiding sugar like the plague. I had to see the doctor again about my itch - she prescribed a steroid cream 15gram tube - useless. The doctor must have been high that day, she said my itch was being caused by the contraceptive pill ?? - huh - I said I have to be on the pill otherwise I suffer terrible menopause symptoms. My itching is in the areas I have morg muck and my detox pathways are blocked. I've lived in this particular skin for - lets say - 10 solid years when this disease literally took a hold of my skin and ran with it. I feel that my working on my face and neck topically started the itching in my arms and hands, my body wants to do it's job but can not. All I can think is that this monster keeps generating under my skin. Back to where my research started with the fiber disease- candida - now why is it doctors don't even consider this. I tested positive for candida in 2004 though the doctor I went to see at that time said he did not believe in the yeast overgrowth theory....- don't you just want to SCREAM?? I know I do. Maybe if I were treated with the drugs on this link emedicine.medscape.com/article/213853-overview I wouldn't be mechanically mending my own face!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! grrrrrrr................ That's about all I have to say really, just bowling along from day to day, living from hand to mouth and praying for things to improve.

"I'm not coping and I need a break. Not a holiday on a resort - a break from this horrible routine that feels like it'll be the end of me".
Aha! one should be careful what they wish for huh? yeah heard that said many a time.
Well I got my "break" LOL - not really funny - poor little William was playing after school Monday 24th February. He was on a friends property (thankfully) and he was climbing a tree and the tree branch snapped and he hit concrete. I didn't see it happen as I had just called him to say "dishing up tea in 10mins!"...."OK mummy!"....all in that short space of time.
I tell you when I looked over the fence and saw my poor little boy so pale standing there with his left arm hanging down and his elbow pointing in my direction. I had to run the entire block to get to the house he was playing at (I'm not good at climbing fences these days). I threw a sling on his arm, lifted him up over my shoulder as much as I could and off I went home. I was dripping in sweat, red in the face and thought my legs wouldn't carry me. A neighbour phoned the ambulance which arrived an hour later (yeah things are really bad in Melbourne with our health care).
I can not fault the care of the staff at the hospital. William shattered his elbow the entire compartment was pushed up. He had to go into surgery asap as there was concern for the large nerve that runs down the length of the arm.
It was a long wait 2 plus hours of surgery. They placed pins in his arm and we were allowed to go home the following night. I'd been in the same clothes for 2 days, and I think managed 3 hours of sleep. Not very comfortable on a plastic fold out bed. I was itching when William was in surgery, thinking "can my life get any worse?....yep it has".
I am constantly on at myself for positivity and a "happy mind". What a challenge. A non Lyme Morgellons would say, "ah you're weak"... "you think so?...haha...I know and you don't and that puts me in a far superior position, even though it's torture!"
Sadly I'm not rid of this disease and do the best I can.

You know when it rains it pours, things have got to get better for you, so keep an eye out for a cloud with a silver lining, its coming your way. "I'm not coping and I need a break.

This is rather difficult posting from my mobile but needed to share. I'm a little upset because William had been telling his school friends that his Mummy has Lyme Disease. His teacher told him off saying "you are telling people things you shouldn't." Perhaps the teacher should have asked me first. As William said to me "why can't I tell my friends when it's true?"

Hi itchin4answers, Damnitall that's ticking me off! Where do these people get the authority to deal with our children this way. The children don't need or want to know any details, and there's no reason not to say "My Mom has Lyme Disease." Then they can play, or study.......or just do their kid stuff. All this nonsense makes mountainous trouble out of innocent molehills. Who needs this? Sorry itchen, you deserve some days of smooth sailing- -Hugs for you and William- and prayers too. -haywired-

All this nonsense makes mountainous trouble out of innocent molehills. Who needs this? Sorry itchen, you deserve some days of smooth sailing- -Hugs for you and William- and prayers too. -haywired- Hi haywired, Thanks for your post. This incident opened up a new side of school teachers I never knew. A friend who is extremely gifted and clever did a little research for me. It is a thing called "shaming and blaming". The teacher did say this comment in front of the entire class. William had 2 days off school, the Friday and then the Monday. I had believed he was feeling unwell when he said he wanted to stay home on the Monday morning. The Friday, we both slept in and woke at 8.10am and we leave for the bus at 8.25am. We both looked at each and knew what one another were thinking. I said "we aren't going to school, we need rest, this is so hard for you - for us both". Over the weekend he told me about the Lyme incident of telling his friends. He was scared what his friends would think of him. By the time Monday came around he then eventually told me that his teacher said this in front of the class. My parents visited the Monday afternoon, I apologised that we both had a pj day. My parents weren't the least bit worried about the pj's they knew we were both struggling. I had William tell his Grandparents about the incident - straight away my parents said "oh no that's not right, William should be able to talk about your disease, you're his Mum and he worries about you." In a nut shell - I had a meeting with the school social worker. She had some concerns she wanted to share with me about William, which turned out to be nothing!! other than the truth - but it is how it gets interpreted by an Adult when they over hear the conversation from a child. William has spent most play times and lunch times sitting at the office due to the doctors orders and mine, that he was NOT to play or run. We want the elbow mended in 6 weeks not 6 months. I told her of this incident with the teacher, but it was kind of blown off. Gosh look at the time!!! I have to go, will be back later today.

I need to vent and this thread seems to be the most appropriate place.
The denial of LYME in Australia is having a catastrophic roll on effect from the sufferer (victim) to all family members, friends and acquaintances.
My son for example and believe me it's really hard to open up about bad things about my son but I have too. It is NOT his fault. He had a Father who sadly had alcoholism as well as the biggest disease you could ever have to deal with LYME and MORGELLONS. Without going into deep detail, Alcoholism becomes and family disease, and all members conform without even knowing. It's all very tragic.
My son, he has had so many confused messages from such a young age, the first 5 years of a child's life are the most impressionable. Child Protection destroyed the 3 of us, roll on effect to my extended family. We were told by a child protection officer "never mind conspiracy theories".....if I could just sit down with that man today and say to him "look at the outcome from LIES...if I were truly schizophrenic and delusional, which were the reasons you took my son, why is it then that I have not had 1 antipsychotic pass my lips since April/May 2009?.....hmmmmm..."
My son struggles with respect toward me and struggles to believe what I say. He witnessed myself and his Dad argue, fight - domestic violence at it's worst - which is extremely typical of Lyme. His Dad, Tony was a placid man, you couldn't get him annoyed if you tried....ahhh but then his drinking disease progressed and so did all the other diseases and nothing more than death was Tony's end, his wish, but selfish in a way. The brain damage so bad, he had forgotten to sign his last "will".....so now we are in a terrible battle for the rights of William to have the money. The Superannuation company aren't the problem - they said "YES" last November and "YES" again at the start of March. It's Tony's brother and he is trying to ruin me, and I tell you this is near on killing me.
I spoke with an old work mate of mine & Tony's the other night. This guy once shared a house with Tony, so we all knew each other so well. This guy was contacted by another friend (via my instruction) last year when Tony died. He & I have just made contact with one another via the internet. When we spoke the other night he said "oh word has it from Tony's family that you are the "evil" one of the East and are the cause of Tony's death"......
This guy is dying of lung and brain cancer. He was once married to an Alcoholic and has a son a little older than Will who lives with him. This guy doesn't have much time left to live and he's only 56. He's living up North in Paradise and we're going in the July school holidays. We both know we are in a race against time with our health. Unfortunately he doesn't have a full grasp of my disease and I wouldn't push that on him. I said a few things on the phone about being locked up!! He said "sounds like you would have great stories to tell!!"....yep that's the truth of it all. I try to keep my smart wit, and quick draw humour, but somewhere along the line this disease rises up and keeps trying to crush me.
I scream on the inside, if only Tony's family knew the TRUTH, if only this country would allow the truth to be told. No one should live their life this way of what if's and still being looked at like I'm a crazy person. Quite frankly I do NOT care how people perceive me. I care about how I perceive me. I am a beautiful strong woman who will not give up until the death rattle!!
I will get my son into shape, even my parents have vowed this also!! It's killing my parents literally to watch me be the best Mum I can and yet no one else around me knows how much I suffer. The school hasn't a clue and they don't want to know. I don't talk about Lyme to any parents anymore, I felt I pushed people away. When people can't understand something their reaction is to turn away and not help because they don't get it and will never get it.
I got a brand new car on Wednesday, bright red. It's all mine, I own it. This has been a long time coming and I still can not believe it. I am driving like a little old lady, which I think is great!! I'm nervous on the roads. I tuck the car in the garage so it's safe at night. The car was due to be Friday but came two days sooner. I worked my butt off Wednesday morning clearing the garage - there is NO ONE to help me with all these tasks. I was feeling unwell already. I had tried a treatment of a protein bath; milk, honey, egg. I also tried oat meal, milk, honey, and egg on my face. The stress with the lawyers was eating me. The itch at night OMG OMG OMG!!!! ice packs, up and down all night....going around the bend!!!!!!!
This cold I have, I've not had one like this in a long time, and wouldn't you know it - the blisters on my right cheek. Mum said she thinks I have an infection as she phoned me and said I sounded terrible. I've been in bed the biggest part of the day. I was a zombie this morning getting breakfast for William - I ate, then went back to sleep. Up for lunch and then a rest for about an hour. My sleep very delirious feeling. My poor boy, whenever I'm unwell he is on his own, yeah he comes in the bedroom to be with me, but it isn't FAIR to HIM. I am one woman and I am doing the best I can. William was told by a friend of mine only recently, he stayed a couple days, came down from the country. He told William that he was a very lucky boy, saying "your mum does everything for you, look at the meals, how clean your home is....not many kids are treated this well".
My son does have a Mentor he sees once a week at school - the Mentor is 77yrs and the organisation is affiliated with the school. This organisation is connected to a church, and the Mentors are for kids at "risk". The only risk for my son is his Mother dying prematurely....and the bloody sad part about it all is that NOT ONE OF THEM realise this.
Thanks.

Itchen, imagine you were this sick and had no idea why your mind and body was so convoluted, and painful.
They are dragging our ranks now for Autistic adults.
I know this is part of our disease, it is a direct result, I do not know your finances but if they deny lyme, Morgellens, as a disability, do Autism.
You may have to look into the repercussions of being a mother with a child and Autism, this may be a problem.
For the masses of you with no where to go Autism can very well fit us into a disability.
The reason I am quite sure this malady has been with mankind for a very long time is this, if you looked at the aged of 90 or 100 years old they had many of our attributes, skin problems, white spots, brown spots, senile angiomas (by the way, I got senile angioms at 20 years old) this was unheard of in my day at this age, (SENILE ANGIOMAS bright red material is the same material in the lesion/TUMORS.
Either this issue has been mutated by mankind on purpose or by accident with the overuse of antibiotics.
It does seem to me these are the only two possible scenarios to me.
This alone should be a cause for study, senile angiomas and eczema the very first aspects of this disease, does that trip your switch. I saw a clear skinned orb form on a flesh vein or capillary, it was super duty building vascular stuff inside of this orb that sat right on top of a super inflamed vein or capillary. The capsule was very tough I could not break it, so I finally stuck it with a hot pin.
This issue came the night after a sexual encounter. THAT QUICK.
Anyway, we all have our issues, yours strained by having to take care of a child but your keeping it together and you got a new paid off car, WOW.
What kind of chariot is it?
Anyway, keep a stiff upper lip, we all have to work hard to keep it together. I am very tired of the fight, it leaves little time to organize my life so things come together.
In fact, the problem is the my mind once a powerhouse of directions and scematics is now just jumbled up and hard to organize.
I need a helper to get out of what I am in, seems impossible.

Another mystery brain disease, or should I say, another brain short circut from this disease, IT IS RELEVENT, news.msn.com/in-depth/misdiagnosed-bipolar-one-girls-struggle-to-get-the-right-treatmentThe doctors stake their reputation on it that the disease is a infection, if they only knew, if someone would only tell them. They are caring enough to get the mainstream drug dealer doctors to stop poisoning this young lady. Think this isn't part of the symptoms of our disease, it is. I garantee you take a blood test and you will find our fibers in these childrens blood.

Here we go 7% of ALL US children are on anti Psychotic drugs, hmmmmmm, why in the world would that be, BECAUSE they have a disease that destroys their brains, thats why. It was only after I got this disease from RISKY sexual experience, that I had any issue, my health was perfect and I was near flawless until one day EVERYTHING changed, especially my mental clarity. My skin and a insidious itching so intense that you could wish for death to visit. Here is the article, do not imagine disease symptom relations are relevant, LOL. Your brain is compromised, you do not have the ability to think only point at shiny stuff. So many believe the most common and erroneous of words spewed by doctors, you have allergies, your under stress, your getting older, they told me this at 19, I had eczema because I was getting older. idiots. Well, now we know, the itching after all was all in our heads and a internet disease. This from all your doctors, after all how many times did you say your doctor WAS THE BEST, up until you showed up with a REAL problem, LOL, sorry dear your delusional. So are these children fighting their way through life with REAL handicaps because people will not pay attention to all these symptoms have one vector behind them. healthyliving.msn.com/diseases/adhd/1-in-13-us-schoolkids-takes-psych-meds-report-1yup

Today I google disease on the rise, and guess what is right at the top of the page, LYME DISEASE. It does not seem to me that this would be the MOST IMPORTANT disease on our humanity list. Neither does Celiac disease but there they were right at the top, this seems more like we are being SOLD a disease to fit our symptoms, sold by someone that wants us to imagine this is what we are suffering from. Just like agent orange was sold to the Vietnam veterans as the causes for their huge pile of symptoms, we are suffering from the same item, whatever it is and it is BIOLOGICAL. Could it be LYME DISEASE, it could, I was out in the fields of Asia, could it have been mutated by the overuse of antibiotics, if Syphilis a spirochetes disease, then so could LYME. The only proof we have that we are united in disease symptoms is the fact that fibrous material is in every part of us including our blood, if we have a lesion that will not heal, it will exude these fibers, seemingly out of nothing. It was suggested to me by another member (lostintime) that they would try to sweep our issues under the table by suggesting Lyme disease as our malady, it seems now it begins. www.google.com/search?q=disease+on+the+rise&rls=com.microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=ie7&rlz=1I7ADSA_en

Hello everyone,
Not been around for a while, nor on the internet and now I have my own computer I find it hard to get the energy together to turn the thing on.
Myself and my son have been unwell, all the school holidays prior to Easter we were struck down with a virus. Then this year (with some push from my Mum) we had the flu vaccine, that was on Tuesday just gone. By Saturday we were both ill again. I am back on Bactrim DS because the bug I had during school holidays was the most horrid sinus infection. My son William is on a liquid steroid and puffer steroid, so this virus has triggered his asthma. The doctor said I had fluid behind my ears - I do suffer from bilateral Eustachian tube dysfunction.
I remember the argument once was "you can NOT get sick from the flu vaccine"....well the doctor said the other day that it is the vaccine that has made us both ill.
Baraka, I don't know what to think anymore about the Lyme issue. It is never mentioned in Australia. Tonight the Government are handing down the budget - and this one is a killer. The hardest hit are going to be those on a Disability Pension, so there will be cuts. Also they are cutting the Family Tax Benefit - those of us with young children get a small allowance, so they are taking from this also. Petrol is going up, and already has. It is becoming near impossible to survive in Melbourne - which is now the 4th most expensive city in the world and sorry to say the place is a shite hole.
There is something I am concerned about and have mentioned to no one around me. As you know William shattered his elbow and had surgery to put pins in. Healing went well - the fiberglass cast was changed every fortnight as the pins needed to be cleaned. On the 9th April the cast came off for good, he is doing really well. My concern however is that his left arm (the one that had the broken elbow) has grown very long dark hairs, his right arm has no hair. What should I make of this?
I will mention that when we were sick during school holidays we had to visit the doctor on a Saturday which is only for emergencies in our case. We were both that bad we needed to see a doctor. We had to see a different doctor at the same surgery. My face had come up in big lumps that ran along my sinus tract. I said to this doctor (who has issues with Lyme disease) "about 10 years ago I developed a sinus infection that a doctor said had penetrated my skin and that is when the Lyme really went crazy in me". This doctor was so rude and said "I don't want to talk about your disease".....I casually said "neither do I"....and proceeded to ask him for an antibiotic and antiviral as I had had a massive shingle out break too with the virus. This doctor did not want to budge and give me the prescription. On my third attempt of asking for Bactrim DS and an antiviral I said to him "if you can not prescribe for me these drugs, which are non addictive, to ease my suffering there is nothing else left for me to do other than to jump off a bridge"....he then turned to the computer and gave me the prescriptions.
Of course my threat of jumping off a bridge was all said very calmly because I wasn't thinking that at all. I was making a point to this idiot that how dare he refuse me medicine because he is an ignorant SOB.
I don't know what to do about this disease anymore. The fatigue is overwhelming, and now that winter is here I just want to hibernate. The itching has settled, though low and behold I was woken last night with my left hand on fire, itching like you wouldn't believe. I had to put ice on it. I am due to see this Dermatologist next month and I really don't know what I'm going to say. I don't want to go but Mum wants me to. Oh well see what next month brings.

You know what you say to a rude SOB like that doctor, at one point in time idiots imagined the earth was the center of the universe, people that contradicted this fallacy could be put to death because of this fallacy wielded by idiots as fact, you sort of resemble these idiots. If you were born before the microbes were found to cause disease, there you would stand with your bloody apron calling the scientist that suggested clean cloths and implements a fool.
Here in America they change the name of entitlements and hand out different kinds of entitlements to confuse the people that never got them before, people that do not know others that work the system.
In America if you want to know how the system works ask a black person, they know it all.
So, go to the office where you apply for entitlements and ask the other women just how you get the money you will need.
Go to a church and ask them, go to the state and county and ask them what is available.
GOOGLE all the questions you can think of, Melbourne Australia help for paying bills, buying food, help for familys, help for the needy, just keep whacking away at the computer and you will find many answers.
Call the family services dept ask all kinds of questions.
Public assistance used to be called welfare, now, its HUD housing, food stamps, EBT and others. The county will pay your electric bill or reduce the amount you pay, this is but the tip of the iceberg, there is plenty more depending where you go, how you act when your there, if you make people laugh you can usually get way more than you imagine.
You have to understand something, if you did not have a disease like we have you would be a naysayer also, you would look at a friend that would not stop itching and digging crying about the doctor saying it was her nerves making her sick or she was delusional and you would suggest to listen to the doctor, or go to another doctor.
You would not imagine that persons pain and suffering if you had never experienced it, neither would you possibly imagine doctor incompetence unless you had this disease.
I myself may have said to a person always feeling bad, stop worrying its all in your head, if they would have said there are bugs crawling all over me, I would only understand crazy if I could not see them, Do not talk about the DISEASE, it will only give people the heebee jeebee's if you must talk about disease talk about a rare blood disease or something they can align with.
It is better to be only ill then to be ill and made to feel like a persecuted, everyone save yourself the aggravation!!
Hope it works out for you.

You know what you say to a rude SOB like that doctor, at one point in time idiots imagined the earth was the center of the universe, people that contradicted this fallacy could be put to death because of this fallacy wielded by idiots as fact, you sort of resemble these idiots.

It is better to be only ill then to be ill and made to feel like a persecuted, everyone save yourself the aggravation!! Hope it works out for you. My apologies, though Thank YOU Baraka. I think my post was speaking for our society in Australia as a whole. I am very lucky compared to others. I stopped going to the Food Bank when the car engine blew up last year. Besides, it was becoming embarrassing for me, they loved me and could not understand why I didn't take more food. What do you say to someone without stating the obvious? The food at the Food Bank is not donated, this charity have to pay for it from the Supermarkets. The vegies are rotting and dairy is out dated. We can not eat the processed food and or the bread they had. So it wasn't my decision to stop going it just happened. I was forced literally for the first time in 12 years to pay bills, budget...hahaha!!...I can't stop shopping. The Budget has caused an UP ROAR in Australia. For those with the energy they took to the streets. For someone like me, I was losing myself with my parents and my son and the garden and looking at all the craft projects I have lined up. In Melbourne you can only get help with your electricity bill ONCE. In Melbourne if you want to know how to get support ask the lost souls who live in the rooming houses - 3 X 3 death holes - mainly men with ISSUES. I tried via a recommendation of someone and the charity were reluctant to give me a $25 food voucher. They came to my home, you see everything is temporal and peripheral. Just because my home is beautiful, doesn't mean I'm well off. I did eventually get the $25 voucher and much to my shock on the back of the card it was able to be used at a Liquor outlet (alcohol). So that's how that guy got $75 worth of vouchers.....everything is upside down. There is NO emergency housing in the suburbs. I live for the NOW. Worrying is a waste of food and oxygen.

Disease Australian doctors don't recognise aca.ninemsn.com.au/video.aspx?vq=lyme%20diseaseMaddie is suffering a seizure, stricken by a disease our doctors still refuse to recognise. But for thousands of Australians it's all too real. And with winter here, the cause could be in your backyard. 11 Jun 2014 ** I am unsure what is happening with the above link. It takes you straight to the ACA website. The Lyme Story is "Disease Australian Doctors don't recognise" and it was on 11th June 2014. This should help you navigate to the video. Of course media is a 9 day wonder and has anything changed? Not on your friggin life. My last postings here at LB I deleted as I was on a down hill slope to suicide. Lucky, I am still here.

Lyme-like disease may result from related unknown bacteriaA government investigation into whether Lyme disease exists in Australia and how to treat it has ended without being able to resolve the issues. But there is a plausible explanation for why people here report a Lyme-like disease. Instituted by the chief medical officer, the Clinical Advisory Committee on Lyme Disease was set up in 2013 to work out how to diagnose and treat what it called “Lyme disease-like syndrome”. But the committee says that can’t be done until we know what causes the illness and how it is spread. theconversation.com/lyme-like-disease-may-result-from-related-unknown-bacteria-14152#_=_
