Like so many of us infected with Lyme and tick-borne illness, Tashia never saw a tick or bite mark. She suddenly developed a pain in her wrist which started affecting her ability to teach yoga. She finally went to the doctor and gratefully that doctor knew about Lyme and was able to make an early diagnosis because nothing else made sense as an option. Once Tashia started on treatment, she started feeling some other symptoms like fatigue, which can happen because of a reaction know commonly as "herxing" where your symptoms become more pronounced after starting treatment as the die off is too extreme for your body to process out fast enough. She was referred to a nutritionist who had experience with Lyme and had gone through her own ordeal having lost the ability to walk at one point. Tashia felt like she was in the right place for treatment and she learned a lot from the nutritionist about how to help herself heal. She currently still maintains the diet she was taught because she simply feels better, with or without having the Lyme. But she has learned also what happens when she doesn't take care of herself. She bought a busy yoga studio about a year ago and hasn't had as much time to dedicate to the self-care routine she established. She is working on a healthy balance between self-care and work so she can maintain her health and thrive with her career. Lyme becomes a permanent accountability coach for us to maintain a healthy lifestyle or old symptoms can reappear. That is not necessarily the worst thing as an outcome but can be frustrating at times.

Sam began experiencing symptoms from Lyme and tickborne illness when she was in high school. This was a very difficult time in life to be diagnosed, as she missed out on most of what is to be one of the best times of a young person's life. She was constantly incredibly fatigued, and had to take naps, had swollen joints, full body pain, and was hardly able to make it through a day. She's very grateful for the support of her mom, as she really helped her get through this time and get the right diagnosis.

Like so many people trying to get an accurate diagnosis, Sam went to numerous doctors in an effort to understand what was happening to her body. She was told things like that she was too stressed to that she was possibly suffering from an eating disorder, but no one seemed to take her symptoms seriously on a physical level.

She finally got an accurate diagnosis and began treatment, but it certainly was not an easy journey back to health. She actually thought she was well enough to go to college, but found it easier to hide her symptoms there because people didn't know her as well as her family, and when she came home for break, her parents were not willing to let her go back to school because she was still so sick.

It took a few more years for her to regain her health, and for her to be able to go back to school and finish her degree. When she did return to school, she had a new passion for learning about healing the body and has now double majored in biology in Spanish, and is now studying to become a chiropractor in Spain. Her life has completely transformed as a result of her contracting, Lyme and tickborne illness, and her mom, Carrie, has been a past guest on my show (episode 20: https://youtu.be/G-oC9uDiCUI?si=KCnSC85cGDehYjwm)

Her mom started an organization called Sam's Spoons, to help others afford the treatment of Lyme and tickborne illness as her family knows all too well, the expenses incurred that are not covered by insurance to help her daughter get better. Many people cannot afford these treatments and subsequently suffer unjustly. If you'd like to contribute to the organization, here is the link: https://www.samsspoons.org/

Sam is another example of someone whose life has been so deeply impacted by this sickness, that it completely changed the course and direction of her life. Gratefully, as we need more doctors to understand what Lyme and tickborne illness looks like and can do to people. There is still far too much misunderstanding about it. You can follow her journey on IG. Look for Sam.Perry7💚
