Lyme disease is the most common vector-borne disease in the Northern Hemisphere.

Perspective on Adrenal and other distress:

I am thankful to feelingrough for posting Burascano's new edition of 'tips...' and recommend everyone who is curious have a look... very long, and I am not even close to done, but very good. Lots of new findings. While reading I was struck by the hypothalamus/pituitary connection so started a tangential search and landed at this : http://www.rifelabs.com/heat-and-lyme.html
WOW.... do I ever see myself here, and thought those of you with dizziness, heart pounding/palpitations, energy, and other problems realted to hormone secretion give it a look; the impact of lyme on adrenal functioning is stunning. It has always been discussed, but I have never seen such a thorough explaination. I am not sure who the author is so obviously cannot vouche for his reliability... but it IS interesting.

my LLMD always turns out the lights and then shines a light in my eyes and then says, "your adrenals are still shot". he says he is looking at how long it takes for the pupils to home in on the correct dilation when the light hits them. It should be almost instant and go into the right position on its first try but those with adrenal fatigue they kinda jump around a little looking for their correct position.

Interesting, Julie... Could this same problem account for yet another weird symptom that I never told anyone about b/c it hasn't happened in a while. Jumping vision? My eyes ... my vision... used to snap up and down really fast. Small distances, but very unsettling. I never told anyone b/c it really scared me. It only happened a few times and I half expected to see it with treatment, but not so far. Couldn've been something else.

    I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
