Nausia and update

I was nautious today. had a headache like no other. nothing helps it. stretching helped a little today. i was able to walk a bit. run a few errands now that we can drive our car again. Considered moving to Oregon and Mike was up to it.

Here's some questions i'm going to ask my doc this friday:

1) I’m concerned that my illness is not Lyme Disease. Is there any chance it could be something else? Have we exhausted all other possibilities? (autoimmune diseases, viruses, cancer, Rheumatoid diseases, other infectious diseases?)

2) What do you think of the Marshall Protocol? Rife Machine?

3) How long do you think it will take before I get well?

4) Is there anything else I can do for the pain? My head is hurting so bad. I’ve been using “Head On” and Excedrin and Tylenol and Advil. It barely helps. I even cut all my hair off.
