Starting

I have had this blog for a week now, but haven't posted. I have been worrying about getting everything perfect -- creating the best header image, making sure that I have all the link buttons I will ever want, choosing all the gadgets. I finally realized this morning that I just need to start, and the blog will evolve as I go. So, here I am.

I decided to put up this blog to track the progress of my treatment for neuroborreliosis after reading similar posts on Wellsphere by Dr. Phuli Cohan, an MD who is also a Lyme patient. I have found it difficult to find anecdotal information from patients about their treatment, and Dr. Cohan's posts really helped me feel less alone with my illness. I'm hoping that this blog will help other late-stage Lyme patients in the same way.

I was also impressed with the treatment record Dr. Cohan ended up with from her posts. My idea for this blog is to use it to track my treatment, symptoms, and reaction to the herbs and medications. Other stuff will probably worm its way in here too. I'll see how it goes, as it goes.
