(prHWY.com) March 15, 2012 - Scottsdale, AZ -- A strep throat diagnosis 4 years ago brought far more than Teri ever could have expected. "What happened was that the antibiotics I was prescribed depleted the good bacteria in my GI system resulting in C-Dificile. That was the beginning of my downward spiral.
In the days, weeks, and months to come, Teri was overrun by fatigue, memory loss, lack of focus, and was barely able to concentrate. She adds, "If I wasn't so exhausted all the time, I would have been paralyzed from my inexplicable symptoms of disorientation, blurred vision, red swollen eyes, respiratory problems, weakness, and pains in my GI, neck, and jaw. My neck would actually creak and I was constantly fighting sore throats, cough, mood swings, irritability, and even hair loss! I was getting desperate."
Teri's family doctor was unable to identify the cause for her endless barrage of maladies. Teri explains, "She had sent me to innumerable specialist in Chrohn's disease, Celiac, MS, Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia. I certainly didn't want to have any of these diseases, but all the tests coming back negative added an additional element of concern. I knew my symptoms were real."
Finally, the clouds broke when Terri was referred to Envita to check for Lyme disease.
"I was hoping that they would have answers," admits Teri, "My life had become nothing more than struggling through the work day only to come home and collapse in a heap. All the joy was gone."
Teri was diagnosed with Lyme disease complex and heavy metals toxicity and promptly began treatment. "Though results came quickly," she adds, "It took a full year for me to recuperate. Each day I take another step toward regaining my old life. I have begun dancing again and virtually all symptoms of the Lyme disease have vanished. At this rate I think I will be able to say I am 'normal again' in a few more months. What a relief."
One of the most shocking aspects of Teri's journey came when her family doctor sent her to a clinic for infectious disease. Their medical team insisted that it was not possible that she had Lyme disease as she didn't have signs of a tick bite or a rash. "Learning what I have from Envita, it is almost unfathomable that a center for infectious disease could be so ill-equipped and lack the essential knowledge necessary to help patients in need."
