I Can Add!
This new antibiotic seems to be working much better. I can add again, which is really a nice thing. I used to get 99% on my math report cards, but some strange Lyme disease side effect made me lose all ability to do math, including balancing checkbooks. I also can multi-task again, which is also very useful, especially when you are teaching.
Unfortunately, I still have swollen fingers and ankles and my joints still hurt, although some of them do not hurt quite as bad as they used to. I stopped taking pain killers because the Dr. thought they might be causing the swelling, but no change. Hopefully, I will continue to improve and the pain and swelling will go away.
