Stuff Done

[cjsmith]

Lyme results sent to my local GP.
Lyme results sent to New York doctor.
Consent-to-treatment form sent to diagnosing doctor.
Minor Web research done; reply on this subject e-mailed to my family.
Appointment set up with diagnosing doctor for day after tomorrow.

I feel like a poser saying this has any emotional impact, because basically, for a 17-year Lyme patient (if indeed that's truly what I am), I'm incredibly healthy. Still, it kinda does.

Think I should do some work related to my job now?

I hope this leads to some good outcomes. I understand and sympathize with the "maybe THIS will explain it" vibe. The hope, the despair, the despair over the hope, etc. I am crossing all available appendages on your behalf, and hoping that appropriate treatment might bring miracles your way.

Yes indeedy. It's funny how the world becomes divided, when you've been through something like that, into those who get it and those who don't. It's so strong a perception that I'm tempted to pull out that old cliche' and say that the last five years have changed my whole sense of priorities. Of course, I was kind of an oddball to begin with, so I can't really lean too hard on a soundbite like that even if it does sound all spiffy and profound. :-)
