For nearly two weeks, I have felt great. In fact, the past four or five days, I have felt normal. As in before Lyme normal. It has been absolutely amazing. I haven’t really even said anything to anyone because I didn’t want to jinx myself with it. But it has been really great to get a glimpse back at what normal is.

Many times when I would go to the doctor for check-ups, she would ask me how I felt as a percentage in relation to how I was before I got sick. And I would always come up with some random number. But I felt like I didn’t really know what normal was anymore so it was hard for me to judge.

Now I remember. And when you feel good again, even if it’s for a short bit, you realize just how bad you actually felt before. And it was bad.

Yesterday, I didn’t feel quite as great. Not bad, but not as good as I had been feeling. Today, it hit me full force again. The brain fog came rolling back in and the headaches started again. It has been quite some time since I’ve had a headache. Before my treatment started, I was having headaches daily every afternoon without fail. So that is certainly an unwelcome return.

I’m hoping it’s just a fluke with today because this isn’t even going along with the cycle of my period (I’m on day 17 of my cycle). So I don’t really know what is going on but I’m hoping for the best. I don’t go back to see my Lyme doc until the first week of May.

Fingers crossed….
