For 4 years I've been experiencing odd symptoms. Struggling at times because they were debilitating, painful & left me feeling like I was going crazy. After years of no answers from several doctors, I took matters into my own hands and hired a private naturalistic doctor to conduct extensive testing and labs on me. In today's video, I'm sharing my results. While it's not good & certainly not what I wanted to hear, I am glad that I finally have answers. It turns out that I am positive for Lyme disease + 4 other bacterial infections...all of which were passed to me via a TICK bite from an infected tick. Lyme bacteria travels throughout the body & can affect all of your systems to include neurological, cardiac etc., It's slowly been multiplying & traversing my body for 4 years that I know of (going off of when symptoms started). Now, I have to work with my doctors on a path for recovery. Thanks for watching & as always we appreciate your continued support of our family & our TH-cam channel. Cheers...
Here's the Naturopathic doctor that helped me:

Btw Tina, I've watched your channel since you lived in Virginia, and I so look forward to the next post. I don't get on here and and chit chat, say yo Momma, you go girl, or Amen. Funny, but I just don't feel like that's contributing much. This time I do feel like I have something to offer by telling you a bit of my story as I did in my last post. I'm supporting your decision to take the holistic route 💯, so now I'm laughing saying, yo Momma, you go girl, and Amen. Be calm, stay strong, and remember life is about learning to dance in the rain...
Hey Tina! I watched this video and I would really love to help you any way I can. I’m a Registered Dietitian in Texas with a major grocery chain here. I know I have some resources that could help and I would love to meet with you to discuss them if you can make some time to meet. I really truly want to help as your channel has really helped me relax and feel better on long days. So, I’d like to return the favor and make you feel better.
I was recently diagnosed with hypothyroidism and vertigo
The meds cause many days of feeling like Blah blah blah.
Me who never took a day nap now I do
I take every day as a blessing and enjoy the times I feel good.
You have a great support system and you can do this ❤
And I am a nurse and healthcare is NOT what it used to be for sure and YES they really don’t listen enough to properly diagnose and start with what’s easy
I am so grateful to have come across this video.
Wow amazing
God bless you!!
Gods got you ❤
Us truthers some people won’t ever understand 😊
I have the same family too
Toxic awful mean
If it’s not your story don’t tell it
Amen!
Your health is more important than TH-cam. We will be here for you
Tina, you don’t know me but I’m Denny DeKubber from Lynden Washington and have been following you since before you moved to Alaska and absolutely love your channel. I am a spirit filled bon again believer and love watching your channel. I just watched your last one when you finally found out you have limes disease and it brought tears to my eyes and felt so much sympathy and compassion for you I stopped the video and prayed a long and lengthy prayer for you and your family. I’m 77 years old and not able to do the things I used to, last year I sold my boat, pickup and camper after 27 years of fishing the same lake in eastern Washington. It was hard to do but am so great full for those years, the LORD has blessed me with a wonderful life. Part of my prayer was that either the Lord will completely heal you or completely get it under control so that you can get back to normal that would make me very happy and I’m sure it would you too, say hi to Joe from me, and without ever knowing our meeting you, I consider you a friend. I live 4 miles from the Canadian border, and I know you went through one of the border is very close to me either Blaine, Lynden, or Sumas. I am about as far far north and west in Washington state as possible. I do hope and pray for your soon recovery Tina. May the Lord bless you and your family your friend, Denny. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Oh Tina! I’m so sorry to hear this news of the Lyme’s AND C-Diff! I’ve been watching you for quite a few yrs and when anyone hears this kind of prognosis you have to feel sorry for that particular person. back a few yrs ago I was in the hospital for a few weeks due to C-Diff. I lived on the toilet and lost a lot of weight. I am also a double lung transplant recipient since that, and I’ve done well… YOU do what your plan is, and I think the Doc you are seeing (Elaine) (that’s my first name as well) will steer you out of the feeling you have had. Praying that you will feel better, soon…. very soon!
I really enjoy all you put on your channel. I would love to travel there, but $$$.. You know who YOU are, and you do now have to cater to haters on your channel. I ❤️how you and your family are close and even closer to Our Lord! You have a good life there! I pray you will feel somewhat better very soon! God Bless ……Elaine Manor Of ‘Upstate’-up from Albany, NY
God blessyou dear sweet Tina for sharing your heart. You have brought so much joy into my life and I appreciate all the time and energy you put into your U tube
Channel. Love and prayers to you and yours from a 77 yr old viewer who adores you.
Hi Tina. Thank you for being so candid about your family and health struggles. I am so sorry about your medical condition and the difficult time you have had dealing with this. I too (ref. previous comment) am Spirit-filled, baptized in the only saving Name of Jesus (Acts 2:38) and live for Him daily. Anyone who has been critical of your channel has no idea what commitment, sacrifice and thoughtful professionalism you have invested into this extraordinary production you share with us weekly. Your talents are phenomenal as far as i am concerned. Joe is a wonderful and dedicated husband and father. He sets such a great example for your son. Thank you for having given us more than 30 mins in the past - i always hated to see your program end. From now on only do you what you can - according to His will. I will be praying for you and the family.
Hey I am from Lynden WA too!!
Lisa not Bob,Tina so sorry but glad you have answers. I’m gluten free and it is not that hard and I use an App that reads labels to tell you if it is GF that helps me a lot. I have had C Dif 2 times and meds took care of that. Can’t believe you have had it for a year. It was so painful I really wanted to die. I don’t know anything about Lime disease but I hope that changing your diet and meds for the C dif will help you feel a lot better. Please keep us updated we Care.
Yes! Because it's life! ❤
I am so sorry you've been going through this. Our health care system is horrible. I went through very similar symptoms for nearly 6yrs with doctors saying things like "You have anxiety" (turns out I have a heart Murmur), "You just need to exercise more, do more stretches" (MRI showed 2 bulging discs and a slipped disc), "Welll, women of a certain age...." (I was 45. And have since been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and a neurological disorder). So, I understand your frustration and disappointment with the "care" you have received. Good for you sticking to your guns and seeking "out of network" help. I wish you all the best!
DearTina You come first. You are "allowed" to shorten your videos. I'd rather you take care of yourself. An update or a sign of life is enough...we will survive. Stay strong.
Amen!
I understand this 100%. Went through an 8 year journey, 3 years of declining health, followed by 5 years of recovery. You had every symptom I had, I additionally developed Bells Palsy (my face on one side). I did have, however, the bullseye rash on my back, so I didn’t see it right away…..this was in 1987. In 1990, I found a doctor, who saved my life!
One thing I know is that you and your family are loved. Thank the Lord we serve a living God. You are in my prayers. Remember God is a God of miracles
Watching this brought me to tears because I relived my Lyme Journey through you. I was misdiagnosed for over 8 years, told I was depressed, had anxiety, etc. I came to find out one of my very first symptoms, panic attacks, are a classic Lyme symptom. When I finally found a doctor who believe me and knew about Lyme and finally diagnosed it was too late for a cure and I too have chronic lyme along with bartonella and babesia, and host of other autoimmune and neurological issues caused by it. I did wind up on massive doses of antibiotics but it didn’t clear it. I also did herbal treatment using Japanese knotweed, houttuynia, sida acuta, just to name a few. I will tell you that, even though this sounds insane, I get flare ups nearly every full moon and new moon. I was told it has something to do with the bacteria’s reproductive cycle. Whether that’s the reason I don’t know but for me it’s like clockwork for a flare. I pray you are able to get your symptoms under control.
I’m a Lyme fighter and I’ve been on every medication and every herb! MY LIFE SAVER HAS BEEN MY RIFE FREQUENCY MACHINE!!!
More info on this machine please? Which frequency?
@@baus7 I have the GB-4000 and I run different frequencies. I started out with the Detox frequencies and now I run EBV, Candida, mold, etc frequencies that go along with Lyme Disease 🦠
Have you watched Dr. Chris Motley? He’s amazing when it comes to Lyme. I know it gets very overwhelming. I have Lyme and mold and it’s a tough one to get rid of. Best recovery wishes to you! ❤
@@Mindfulmaven19 yes 🙌🏼 my mold levels were high! After I done heavy detox first then I tackled mold. It’s such a long process.
@@SunshineSarah74 it truly is. I’m wishing you more healing than ever. 🤍
What ever you need, do it. We will be here forever. Get better, thank goodness you got a proper diagnosis. Bless you, Joe and Parker.
Absolutely 💯!
Girl those of us who watch your channel and love your channel will still be here. Your health comes first! Take care of you! I will be praying for you🙏🏻 lots of love❤
Omg! I’m so sorry about your family honey. I relate to the family judginess, secrets, & smear campaigns. This is the first time watching you and I so feel the same-including the physical illnesses. Keep doing what you’re doing! The world needs your message more than ever. Sending so much love and healing energy. 🙏🙏🙏
I have hashimotos and anxiety problems I have tons of the same symptoms. I would highly recommend going strict keto or carnivore for awhile with intermittent fasting. Also Wim Hof breathing techniques are amazing. I’ll be praying for you so glad you found a functional medicine doctor to help . I need to find one too ❤
Hi Tina, this is Vicki Joe's Aunt and I want to let you know how proud I am of you both. You take care of yourself, I am glad you finally got some answers. Joe and Parker need you. You are a wonderful mother and wife. You take all the time you need for yourself to get better. Just found your channel a few months ago. Lexi has grown up since I saw her last, she has grown into a beautiful young lady.
My therapist's husband has Lyme's and it was so bad he couldn't get out of bed. He started Ozone therapy and it has changed his life. His days get better and better where he is able to function again and do things with the family. Good luck to you Tina and love and prayers to you all. Those of us that care about all of you are here no matter what that looks like. 😉💕🙏
I use oxygen ozone therapy at home. It's great because there are so many different applications of use to target specific areas. It's kept me my husband and mom out of the hospital many times. I can't imagine our lives without it.
Many of our "dis-eases" are linked to parasites. Just type one in with the word parasite.
Even "Cancer"
This makes what we see you do in the videos even more amazing! I'm sure it is a relief to finally have a diagnosis and a plan. Praying for you and your family as you navigate this, sweet friend! ♥
Thank YOU! One day at a time.🫶🏻
Please let your primary doctor know what he missed. So others who present with similar symptoms can be helped, and they are screened for Lyme rather than being dismissed. Lifting prayers for you for healing! ❤
Yes so important to do that. Love to hear what they say. Please take care of yourself hunny. Just get well.Sending ❤ from Rosie O from Devon England 🏴
I am so sorry that you're going through all of this. I am old enough to remember when doctors cared more about the patient than the money. I am old enough to remember when doctors determined the course of action, not the insurance companies. I miss those days, for many, many reasons. You will be in my prayers.
With that being said, let me say that you do whatever you have to do with the channel. Remember, we are friends here and friends share the good, the bad and the ugly. Don't let anyone tell you how to run your channel! We'll be here no matter what you want to share with us.
YOU SAID IT SOOO WELL DEB AND I AGREE🎉🎉🎉❤😊
I am a nurse and you are exactly right. I live in Canada, but the pharmaceutical companies have sadly given our doctors great incentives to write prescriptions to treat every symptom!
I'm so sorry, Tina. When I heard you describing the symptoms, my first thought was Lyme disease because my daughter has been going through this for years. It took over 10 years for her to get her chronic Lyme diagnosis and other doctors wrote her off just like yours did. It has taken tons of research, trial and error and money trying to heal her from this. She was also diagnosed with CIRS (chronic inflammatory response syndrome) and her CIRS is genetic, which makes it harder for them to clear the Lyme because of the CIRS. She has leaky gut, problems with gluten, and on and on, just like you. She also takes a natural approach to her health and has switched to a Carnivore diet to help control her CIRS and Lyme. She had lost her mobility for years because of her excruciating neck and upper back pain but thankfully she can drive now and has come a long way. I wish you the best and will keep you in my prayers as I know the pain and frustration that goes along with Lyme Disease. Hopefully you feel some peace as you finally have the answer as to why you have felt this way and now you can move forward. Using your platform and describing in detail your symptoms will help others in their own Lyme journey. Bless you! You are a strong woman and will defeat Lyme!
Yes, glad your daughter is healing, praise God! I also was going to mention the carnivore diet. Dr. Ken Berry wrote a book about what the doctor's won't tell you, the lies they was taught and push..he's an out of the box doctor. Anyway, he has his own fb page and youtube channel. Dr Ken Berry endorses carnivore for healing the body and his wife has Hoshimoto disease. His wife calls her diet ketovore, she does both. They have a fb live I believe on Monday night. Check out his videos and be encouraged. Dr Berry lives the carnivore life. Tina we love you and your family. Remember Jesus is the balm of Gilead, our healer and protector. May God bless you, and keep you and shine His face upon you and be gracious to you, and the Lord will lift up His countenance to you and give you peace. Amen Amen Numbers 6:24-26.
Carnivore is not the best diet for inflammation. She needs anti-oxidants.
Whole Food Plant Based diet (organic if possible) is very beneficial for your symptoms. It’s done wonders for me, like a miracle.
I have a very similar story and have chronic Lyme arthritis and nerve damage. It’s a daily struggle.❤
i have CIRS caused by Lyme also its just aweful im so sensitive to any mould
Bless you 💕 you are a precious child of God and He's got you!!
You are doing a service to others by sharing awareness about this horrible illness. I wish you well
You have my sympathy. My brother was bitten by a tick last summer, and he didn't know until he was sick he was rushed to the hospital and they found it in the bottom of his back. No idea how long it was there. Also had multiple infections,as well as the Lyme Disease. He was always very healthy, but he was in and out of the hospital multiple times with the infections. Over a period of 4 months he was back and forth in hospital and ultimately the antibiotics wouldn't work anymore, and he passed away on Nov. 11, 2023, which is rather significant ,
it being Veterans Day and he was a Marine. My heart goes out to you and your struggle with this disease. It is very dangerous to be bitten by a tick, most especially when it isn't treated immediately. I will be praying for you and your health . God bless you. Just know God is holding you in the palm of His hand. ❤❤
Prayers to you on loss of your brother 🙏
Omg, I'm so sorry for your loss Ellen. I'm 36 and currently going through a nightmare health scare that I can't get diagnosed. I'm petrified it's cancer and that I'm going to leave my young daughters without a Momma 😢 if I ever get better I'm never taking my health for granted ever again.
Im sure 99% of ur followers support any choice/changes u make to the channel, we're behind u 100% so if its a 20min vid or an hr we are fortunate to have u and ur family in our lives, im a 62yo man who got afib and very thick blood which has caused a slew of other problems but watching ur channel helps me cope, will b praying for u and family to get thru hard times and b able to enjoy the wonderful life u have created ✌️❤️🙏
I am sitting here, almost numb.. literally everything you've described is what I've been dealing with the last 2-3 years. Multiple ER trips thinking I was having a heart attack.. 4 different doctors telling me I just had anxiety and depression and acid reflux. I did listen at first and went in antidepressants.. but 4 months later I KNEW that I needed to come off of them, and I did. I've been researching and trying different herbal regimes just trying to heal myself. And there have been improvements but I still felt I was missing something. But now I'm going to insist on being testing for lyme disease. Thank you for doing this hard thing and sharing your journey. You just may have changed my life too.❤
Same here
My son has been experiencing these symptoms. Thank you for sharing. I am going to ask him to get tested for Lyme
I'm having the same exact symptoms as well for a few yrs now and this video was suggested to me tonight. Crazy how that works.
Several in our family have dealt with similar situations/symptoms of Lyme as well along with 5 other tick carrying diseases. They were able to get treatments to help keep at bay. You can do this life change... you seem to be already so knowledgeable about the disease and have been through so much in many various ways. So thankful for answers and praying now that you can treat symptoms and you can feel better soon.
I told my new Doctor about my husbands symptoms and she knew right away what he had. He was diagnosed with lymes, He did use the antibiotic with success. Three years have past and he still takes one to two naps a day. He used to work from morning to night, now he cuts grass and he needs to take a nap. Take care of your self. We will still be here when you do post!!
ABSOLUTELY ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉😊
Please take care of yourself! Your family needs you!❤
I’m so sorry 😢 I’ve had chronic fibromyalgia for 23 years and it’s so crazy that all these autoimmune and neurological illnesses are increasing and no one is listening . Prayers and love 💕 to you and your family
I’m praying for you. 🙏
I have a friend that developed bells palsy and it turned out to be from Lyme disease. He went to a homeopathic Dr and did hyperbaric chamber treatments and took lyme-stat and was cured. I believe the natural doctors are better than establishment doctors that are sponsored by big pharma. I'm glad you finally got an answer to your symptoms and wish you the best in your recovery💗🙏
Thanks for your honesty. At 80 years old I wish I had gone to a functional doctor years ago. I think my many medical issues could have been prevented or solved much easier. You might be the angel sent from Heaven to help someone through your journey. Praying for you and your journey.❤
Oh hon, I can relate... So many things... So many!! Thank you for sharing 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Neurogenic bladder, one of the issues with Lymes. I have lymes and this has been an issue. Benfotiamine, a powerful form of Vitamin B1, has been a life savor for me, greatly helping this issue. Sending love and healing energy. Take care of yourself, this condition can be healed/controlled.
Stay strong we are behind you
45 minutes, 20minutes or 1video a month. It doesnt matter. True fans will be here to watch. God is good and HE has your back. Love you girl. Please take care of yourself. Joe and Parker need you more than us!!
Prayers for you to get better very soon. I know of other people who have gone through years of health problems only to find out it was caused by Lyme’s disease. I would think doctors would check for that, sooner.
Whatever you feel like doing and sharing will be ok. I enjoy all you post. You don’t have to make long ones, we will stay with you. 💕🙏🏼
💯❤️
❤
SHE SAID IT PERFECTLY!! ❤
New subscriber, so sorry for all your problems, take care of yourself and pray, I’ll put you on our prayer list…God Bless You and your family and take care.!!!🙏🏻❤
I am so happy for you that you found a provider who listened and was thorough. Your symptoms are very similar to mine. I have also tested positive for Lyme and alpha gal. I didn’t expect it, and wasn’t sure I believed it. With the alpha gal, I decided to cut out all alpha gal foods just to see if I would notice a positive change. Long story short, I got my life back. I feel so much better. I can leave the house without mapping out the nearest bathroom. I encourage you to check for alpha gal
GodBless to you sweetie and your family .May the good lord heal you 🙏.
Block the hate and miserable people who love to infuse their misery on others who are good, God Bless
Girl do what you can when you can. We will be here!
sitting here watching this video was like listening to my life story , i was bitten by a tick in my late 20's
I'm 66, I moved to WV in 2019 but I was diagnosed with Hypothyroid in 2016 and Fibromyalgia in 2018. Also, Lupus anticoagulant, have gone to the ER 3 times in that TIME PERIOD AND I'm having a scope in Aug. I lived in VA Beach for 35 years and was bitten numerous times by ticks. I can't eat anything that doesn't hurt my tummy. I'm not saying I have Lyme, but I have the same Anxiety symptoms and feelings. I am an organic farmer and i try to eat non processed foods. You are an inspiration, and I will be following up with my doctor.
You need the thyroid test that uses an iodine capsule that is swallowed and you come back the next day and they track the capsule it tells them everything about your thyroid and how well it is functioning!! If you are getting anxiety attacks it could be coming from your thyroid! 95%of thyroid comes from your immune system attacking your thyroid!! Its goal to kill your thyroid as it’s dying your at risk for Graves’ disease. Huge symptom is anxiety! As it advanced raising pulse and heart palpitations that’s what causes the anxiety!! Ask for this test!
Tina, I’m going through this journey as we speak. The doctors just tell me I need to calm down. I’ve had the same symptoms for years. I stopped going to the doctors because they just don’t listen.
Read up on ADHD….
Tina shouting from Pennsylvania-“Girl you scream from the mountains” share your heart and health and continue to praise Jesus - Focus on you - God is right beside you and so are we❤️🙏🏻
Praying for you!!
As a couple who has been in & around the medical profession for all of our adult lives, We hear you. I have had run around after run around because of my medical. The Neurologist called them "Ice Pick Headaches". I applaud you for standing up for yourself & fighting to find the root cause. I fight that battle constantly w the V.A. You are Absolutely Right when you say Nobody knows your body like you. Keep your eyes on God & he will help you thru this all.
Tina you're human,if you need to cry, we are here for you.
Letting people know about these medical issues can help others. All because they are family doesn't mean you can't block them-there are stupid everywhere. I am 67 and started to eliminate chemicals in my life, they are getting worse. Good luck and God's love and comfort for you and your family
Just found youur channel & am in chills. YOU WILL MAKE IT! God will give you the necessary things to heal you. My hubby of 40 years had Hashimoto's & we never knew it. It was 2002. We owned our own business. I saw changes but could not pinpoint. He swelled up, one eye was wider. I wouold find him in a park ready a book right near our house. His work became nothing, He stole from a vendor! And BAM! He wanted a taco salad one night, Talked to our new neighbor @ installing water equiptment. We showere at 8;00 ( every night). I was in office, & he was already in bed. No kiss, nothing. The next morning we did our morning, I kissed him going out the garage & WOW i COULD SEE THROUGH HIS EYES! i SHOULD HAVE CALLED 911. I felt something was wrong. 2 hrs alter I found phone & pager on his desk! i got in my car & drove to nephews work. " Dont' worry". I drove & drove. 4:00 got home & cops, my daughter. I walked in & she was with boyfriend in tears. HE KILLED HIMSELF! Let me just say my life took a BIG TURN in MANY WAYS! Sorry Im writing a book here. I post yearlt for people to get bloodwork for Hashimotos. Love & Blessings from Fla.
I'm Sooooo sorry for your loss I've had been dealing with hypothyroidism and hashimoto's disease I was diagnosed in January 2012. My anxiety and depression got wasayyyyy worse I was sleeping all the time. I was in the hospital and they did blood work and an endocrinologist came and put me on meds. The year before my TSH looked NORMAL but I was still experiencing symptoms they told me it was my mental health. Now when I'm stressed or too active I am Sooooo sore the next day or I'll be in bed. I'm soooo sorry your Husband didn't get proper medical care and y'all went through such a horrible loss. Sending lots of Prayers love and hugs.
I’ve Hashimotos Disease since diagnosed in ‘89. 35 yrs I’ve always kept my Synthroid medication at the proper strength as Thyroid is very important. I’ve no association with Depression or Suicidal thoughts and in all my years of having & learning I’ve never seen a connection to Suicide due to Hashimotos. Regardless I send Sincere Sympathy to You. 🕊️
Good on you. Yes, pls look after yourself. Everyone here will live. Until you've been thru illness it's hard for ppl to understand. All that matters is what God thinks of youand doing our best for God. Take care. Best wishes for a full recovery ❤

Girl, don’t feel obligated to anyone but you and your family. Don’t give one drop of energy to haters. Please remember, you are a remarkable person. Your posts are always inspiring and a joy to see. Keep doing you, get the rest you need. Hoping for a speedy return to great health ❤
We love you guys! 😊
You know, Tina, for over a year now, I've been asking myself how in heaven you were able to handle everything! Sometimes I don't comment just because I don't want you to use your energy in answering back.When I discovered your beautiful channel, it made me reflect on my own experiences, like the time I spent nine whole months living in the jungle. But right now, my focus is on you. Remember, you will do what is best for yourself, and we, your followers, will always be here to support you. You truly are a unique individual, and I firmly believe that everything happens for a reason, something you understand better than anyone else. You are blessed, and you bring blessings to all of us. I can only reassure you that you can find peace in knowing that you are doing what is best for the best of reasons and everybody knows that. WE ALL LOVE UUUUU!!!
Happy Father's Day to Joe. He is a loving Dad and spouse and deserves the best.
Hope you start feeling better.
I watch a blog where he says "We show all the good, the bad and the ugly" I love honesty You take care of yourself first and the blog later. Most blogger's have sponsors.
Please don't give up. We love you , your family and your content. 💚
Stay strong Tina. Take whatever time you need for yourself and family. Your health is your number one priority.
I just found your channel. My heart breaks for you. In 1990, I had all of the symptoms you mention. It took me 10 years to finally get a Lyme disease diagnosis. I heard the same anxiety, depression bs. 34 years later, I have chronic Lyme, Hashimotos, Lupus, and diverticulosis. I pray for you and your family. I'm 67yo, and keeping on kicking. Your life changes, but you'll find a way. Kindest Regards, Nancy Curtin
I had belly issues (vomitting, nausea etc) for 8 years and have had every GI test out there. Recently found out it was stage 3C Ovarian cancer. Stay strong and keep pushing until you find the answer. Glad you finally have a diagnosis and a plan moving forward.
I’m sitting here in my living room crying. Praying and crying. Our God is a healer and I believe in healing. I love your videos (short or long). You and the family will be in my prayers ❤
This to shall pass 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 praying for you my dear.🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Just found your channel. Never be embarrassed, you do know your body and drs don’t listen. If you have Lyme, gluten free diet will. really help. I’ve been gluten free for 15 years now. My wife and myself are both nurses for almost 30 years each. We moved to a homestead 3 years ago. Tick bites ALL the time. I had Rocky Mountain spotted fever two years ago. My wife had bullseye rash from tick bite a year ago. Treated immediately so hopefully nothing dormant. Due to a birth defect (they discovered when I was 14)
I’ve had kidney disease all my life.
Ran 21 marathons. (Boston twice yes qualified) Bike across Kansas, Nebraska,Missouri and Oklahoma. One year ago my kidneys finally failed and I started dialysis. Also diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. Two back surgeries. I’m 57 now.
I need a kidney transplant…tears are OK because Wrapping your head around a major health crisis isn’t something they teach you in high school or college to deal with!! Sadly, there is not an alternative medicine to restart or jumpstart the kidneys. I’m at the mercy of western medicine. Everything you have shared about you and your family, MOST FAMILIES go through the same!! People are struggling everyday and everywhere. TEARS are ok!!! You’re free to make a living too!!
You HAVE to be your own advocate too!! Make calls, write letters, follow up!! DONT expect a broken medical system to be your advocate. It won’t!! If you do start conventional antibiotics. BE AWARE! The antibiotics used for Lyme will make your skin EXCEEDINGLY sensitive to the sun!! COVER UP!! Moving forward, keep doing what you’re doing. Get gluten free, NOW.
Dairy free too most likely. Read the scriptures stay in church (I’m the church drummer) and remember marriage is a COVENANT we need to honor God with!! Tears are NORMAL!
(That’s what one of my dialysis nurses told me one day when I was crying quietly to myself watching my blood circulate through the machine)…and keep reaching out to others who are struggling!!! Peace be the journey for you dear ones!!
Very well said!
My heart broke for you and I'm so sorry life has thrown so much at you. I stopped the video and said a prayer for you. Thank you for sharing some of what you're having to do for your kidneys. I pray you receive you transplant soon, very soon. Isaiah 53 3-5 is my go to Bible verse for healing. God bless you always and lot's of love from Oklahoma
@@maryfolks9368thank you for stopping that moment to pray. This is how it’s supposed to be ! Lifting each other up! Peace be the journey!!
I can relate,,on the same Page with you,,,Hate that this is me at 60,,Yet,,Get up each day,,and do what I can.... Don't sweat the small stuff,,,You know What works for you,,,Keep going!! You Are not Alone..❤
Lifting you in prayer sister in Christ. ❤ 🙏❤ I'm glad you received the diagnosis so we can pin point our prayers. Much love from Virginia.
Praying all goes well and you will be completely healed soon.
You made a wise choice in choosing the doctor who will care for you. ❤
Wow.., Mercy..,
Dear Tina, I'm so glad you are sharing all this with us because we love you and are able to pray to Jesus for you. We don't want you to be like this.
Praying for you!! Your videos could be five minutes and I would still look forward to them. Concentrate on your health and know we’re behind you ❤❤❤❤
Awesome being authentic! Bring it to the light. God shines through the lace of our lives. He is our strength.
Sorry to hear that you have all these health issues. I hope you will find a way to manage all your symptoms. You’re beautiful inside and out . Sending you prayers
Tina we all are here for you just like you are here for us. We love you very much so please if you want or need to vent away and share with us. Prayers to you ❤️❤️🙏🇺🇸
I always appreciate you and your family's honesty, don't ever quit being yourself! TH-cam is your business so do what you need to do for you and your family. Real friends and viewers won't mind some promotions. I mean seriously if they don't want to watch the promo they can just skip through it. Take care of yourself, prayers to y'all....God Bless!
I just found your channel and I really do love the way u speak....family r the worse.. B strong love u
Thank you so much!
We love you Tina & your family. We all want the best for you. I am sending a virtual hug. You need to take care of yourself first. I will pray for you 💖. Stay healthy. As far as the haters, negative Nellies they have lost their ever loving minds. You are honestly one of the most sincere, adorable, grounded, caring & humorous person on U tube.
Dearest Tina, I’m one of your newbies! I happened to catch a video as you guys were preparing to move to Alaska and I was “hooked!” When you were listing all the results you found out and you mentioned “C-Diff,” I immediately started crying uncontrollably!! I had “C-Diff” about 12-15 years ago and I was so very sick for months and had to be on the medication that made me feel so bad that I truly wanted to die! So, dear Tina, I’m so thankful that you found this new doctor to help you maneuver through all of this! I’m a believer in
Jesus Christ as my personal Savior and I’m adding you and your family to my Prayer List! Who else cares for and loves like our Lord Jesus🙏!
Tina ..we all love Joe and Parker and you and the fur babies….Please , please take care of yourself..without you Joe would be lost and Parker..Take your time we are here for you and get well soon..God Bless you and your family!!🙏✝️☮️🦋🌸🌹🌈😇😇😇🌺🇺🇸. Happy Father’s Day to Joe!!
Thank you for sharing your life issues. I am a retired nurse and reading responses you are helping so many people. May God’s healing spirit take care of you and your family!
Aww Tina! I’m so sorry for everything happening right now but it will all be better from now on! ❤️❤️ keep your head up! We’re here for all of it & we love you guys!
It's not complaining. You are just letting everyone know what's going on. I have been keeping you in my prayers with what's been going on with your health. I know it wasn't what you wanted to hear but you know what it is and can better deal with the symptoms. Cdif can be treated. My mom had that and it was treated and went away. I will continue to pray for your health and that it gets better. If you don't put a video out every week it's ok. We all have family that causes drama. And you tell it like it is and some people don't like that and don't know how to take it. I appreciate your channel. And I thank you.
Praying for you and your family. You will get through this.🌷🌷🌷
Live life while you heal.
Have faith. Miracles do happen. God bless
You and your family will be in my prayers. You will get through this. You are stronger than you know. Give it to God and get out of His way! ❤❤❤❤
Hi Tina... I'm so so glad you finally have a diagnosis, I know before I was diagnosed with a few years ago, I felt like I was being fobbed off and almost give up trying to find answers. Then ONE nurse actually listened to me and done what needed to be done and bingo, I had answers and the care/meds that made my health much much better. I'll never be healed but God is doing what He needs to do with me and for me and that's good enough for me.
My heart goes out to you in so many ways, positive and supportive ways and I know God will carry you through whatever journey He has you on. You are such a good, strong lady and I'm here for that!
As for the neggies out there... that's their business, delete and block...even in life, ignore and leave. That's what I've come to learn in my life in recent years. It speaks so much about them, not you.
Now, tell me why I've started a YT channel to put myself out there?!!! Lmao Well, because God made no shrinking violets, did He?!! I'm here for helping and reaching out to others, even if it's just one person it's all worth it.
So...I love your videos, I love your lifestyle and I love your vibe... God made you to be you, and you are doing a wonderful job at it. xxx
ps. the only time I don't like your videos is when they end!! lmao
With are friends daughter they gave her high does of liquid vitamin c in germany

Do what you have to do we will miss you do a lot of lives if you can
I TOTALLY AGREE 100%🎉🎉🎉 ❤❤❤❤❤😊
Oh my gosh I am so glad that I came across your video. I have been dealing with the same health problems that you have been naming off. I would say 98% of the things that you were talking about I'm going through right now. It is so scary!!! I've even thought maybe I was losing it LOL. You are a answer to my prayers!!! Thank you so much for speaking out. This is my first time watching your video. I'm doing a project and I was watching another video that ended and yours came on and I've just been listening to it. I believe everything happens for a reason, I believe the Lord wanted me to watch your video possibly having the same problem that you've been diagnosed with. I love how God works. He is an amazing Father that takes care of his children. I have been going to the doctors for probably over 2 years and even to the hospital. Thank you for speaking out and being opened with all of us. And please don't pay attention to the negative people that want to speak nonsense. If you didn't speak about what you were I may have not learned from your video. I will be keeping you in my prayers and I will be following your journey. God bless you and your Family ❤️🙏
Look up doctor Kan Berry and his wife Nisha. Nisha has Hashimoto’s and she has been able to get it under control with a good diet.
Look up doctor Kan Berry and his wife Nisha. Nisha has Hashimoto’s and she has been able to get it under control with a good diet.
She named almost every one of the same symptoms that I have been dealing with too and this video just happened to be in my suggestions list tonight. God is Good.
Hang in there! I know it is hard to deal with. Been suffering for many, many years and about 3 years ago I was finally diagnosed with Lyme. Still figuring out how to manage the chronic fatigue. The chronic fatigue is the worst for me. I am slowly learning how to pace myself. Praying for your healing!
As a chronic illness sufferer I hear you, I know the stress and struggle. I also homeschooled my 4 children who are now grown. I learned that as the kids got older I could restructure their schooling and be more of a supervisor supporting role model than teacher. They took control of their learning in all the areas they could. That and removing all the toxic people from my life has been healing in itself.
I hope the treatment works well. It must be a relief to have a diagnosis at last. Take care. ❤
I was sick two years nauseous weight loss gut issues. Finally found i had c dif both strains, h pie Laurie and geardia. 8 years later I still feel like death. I’ve spent probably 100,000 out of pocket. Also a veteran who gets 0 benefits from the va. 😢 ill be praying for you. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I had H. pylori and C Diff. The first was treated with two different antibiotics for 14 days. They gave me Vancomycin for the C Diff. I take probiotics now including Florastor which is GREAT.
Unfortunately, we have unvetted people coming into our country bringing diseases. Tuberculosis is in the rise, too. And cholera. Infected people who work at restaurants aren't washing their hands because they come from unhygienic countries where they're not taught the importance of hand washing. It's going to get worse here...
I'm so sorry for your suffering. I have been deathly ill from toxic mold exposure. 4 years of treatment and still sick with CIRS, MCAS, and a brain injury, vision loss. We also have spent thousands and thousands. I will pray for you
My husband is a Veteran (Honorable) who gets 0 benefits as well. Our VA is also another thing that's very messed up.
We will be keeping you in our prayers. You got this! You are one HELL of a strong woman! With Joe, Parker, Lexxy, and James in your corner you’ll have this beat in no time. Take all the time you need Tina we love you and your whole family and want you to get better.
I will pray for you and your family. I hope that sharing all the things helps you to deal with everything. God bless you all. 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Tina, the Lyme’s Disease is a major diagnosis, but all of the other diagnoses you mentioned are major all on their own, including the gluten intolerance related to the Hashimoto’s! Your fortitude and strength are amazing! And God’s hand is obviously on you! I am glad that you will continue to minister via your channel and that you are so transparent. I really believe many will be blessed through this. I will keep you and your family in my prayers. Angela
You’re a beautiful soul, glad you’re sticking to TH-cam. Thank you for being here for us.
Thanks for sharing. Keep praying. Love and lean hard on Joe, Parker, Lexy and James. And know we love you.
Oh sweet lady you're in my prayers. Don't ever forget how AMAZING and strong you are! God holds us in his hands... we good 😊.
We love you will keep you in our prayers. PLZ DONT STOP!
Thank you for not quitting. This channel is so important to so many. We love you and your family and we will be praying for you and with you ❤
Happy Father's Day,Joe!!
