    Well, I got all my test results back. So to recap, it's not the Flu, Covid, Strep, and now, It's not any of the 5 Tick Borne diseases they tested me for, and it's not Lyme. Now, the Lyme test could have been too early, but who can say. This doxycycline they have me on seems to be helping. I've been feeling decreasingly fatigued as the days go on, but I still have some moments where it comes back. Yesterday afternoon, I needed to take a big Advil to tamp down another fever... I'm starting to wonder if I injured my hernia repair, but I don't really have a lot of pain in that area. Anyway, follow up on Monday with the GP I'm not a fan of, so lets see what happens next.

      Shit, dude, I'm really sorry to hear that you're going through that. Once again it's pretty cold comfort to hear it's not a bunch more stuff.

      Sending vibes is all i can do but they're on their way

        I appreciate it. It's very strange. The only other thing I can think of is that when moving that damn rider lawnmower, I might have injured my hernia mesh repair in some way, and my body is freaking out internally. I would have assumed, though, that would come with abdomen pain, and I don't really have any.

          I know someone who fell off their longboard as a young adult and shattered their hip. They were able to walk to the hospital and felt no pain. Sometimes you don't realize how your body reacts to shit.

      Damn, that sounds beyond frustrating. Hope blasting you with drugs manages to at least sort it out.

      how're you feeling? hoping the doxycycline helped and it definitely wasn't your hernia repair, that sounds scary.

        I'm feeling better but I am having some abdomen discomfort. It's mild though, and I really only notice it at the end of the day. Like I've been doing crunches. But my legs feel like that too. Hard to know if its because of my inactivity catching up with me or something else.

        Thanks for checking in on me!
