I’ve always been really active. We lived in the country and we were big campers - always outside, always in nature. Looking back, I probably picked up Lyme disease somewhere along the way, but I never saw a tick, never had the classic bull’s eye rash. So I had no reason to suspect anything.

What I did have, though, were symptoms that made absolutely no sense.

It started years before I was diagnosed - easily 10 years. Things would come and go, and they were always strange. I had this terrible rash on my arms at one point - so painful it would almost bleed. I went through all the testing … allergies, everything … and nothing showed up.

Then my hand stopped working. Just one hand at first; I couldn’t even pick up an empty plate. That lasted about six months, then it switched to the other hand. Then eventually, just like that, it went away. No explanation.

Later, I got this rash on my neck that spread to my face. It got so bad that when I went to the hospital, they thought I had been in an abusive situation. I had to convince them that wasn’t the case. I still left with no answers.

Everything was spaced out over time, but eventually I started thinking, “Okay … what’s going to happen next?”

And then it got scary.

I remember going for a walk and suddenly feeling like I was having a stroke. I saw specialist after specialist - ears, heart, internal medicine - you name it. Test after test came back normal. One doctor even told me it was all in my head and suggested antidepressants.

But I knew it wasn’t in my head.

The real turning point was when I was driving home one day. Out of nowhere, everything went black. I managed to pull over near a hospital, thank God. They kept me there all day, ran tests … still nothing conclusive.

After that, my body just crashed. I couldn’t walk properly. I was constantly in the bathroom. I knew something was very, very wrong.

It wasn’t until my aunt pushed me to get my blood tested in the U.S. that I finally got an answer. I was diagnosed with Lyme disease at the very end of 2016 but by then, I’d been dealing with symptoms for years.

I started treatment with a Lyme specialist and I was on antibiotics for about a year. Honestly, it nearly killed me. I went from about 122 pounds down to 100. My skin turned grey. I looked, and felt, like I was fading away.

And then there were the side effects.

At one point, I had a reaction so severe mentally that I didn’t even feel like myself. I remember lying in bed, feeling completely out of control, like something had taken over my mind. It was terrifying. That was the moment I knew I couldn’t keep going like that.

So I stopped.

From there, I tried more natural approaches with a naturopath. Some things would help for a while, but it was always temporary. I’d feel better for a few months, and then everything would come back. It was a constant roller coaster.

Then I met someone who had gone through Lyme and actually recovered.
He introduced me to the Bob Beck Health Protocol.
That’s when things started to shift for me.

I started using the wrist pulsing unit every day. At first I was wrist pulsing about 20 minutes a day, but pretty quickly I worked up to an hour and on most days, even two to three hours. I was also making my own ionic colloidal silver and using it consistently.

Within a few weeks, I noticed something I hadn’t felt in a long time. I felt calmer. My system wasn’t as reactive. I wasn’t as on edge all the time.

And then it built from there.

I had more energy. I could get through my days more normally again. It wasn’t this dramatic overnight change, but it was steady - and for the first time, it actually felt like something was helping instead of just masking things or giving me a temporary boost.

That was huge for me.

I also used the magnetic pulsing unit at times, and recently I’ve started incorporating it again. Even now, when I use it for an hour or more, I notice it right away - especially with my sleep. The first time I used it again recently, I had one of the best nights of sleep I’d had in a long time.

These days, my symptoms are very different from what they were back then. Most of the physical issues are gone, but I still deal with neurological sensitivity - things like sensory overload. Too much noise, too much light, too much going on… it can be a lot.

But now I understand it. I know when I need to step back, quiet things down, and support my system.

And I have tools that actually help me do that.

Wrist pulsing regularly and making ionic colloidal silver became a really important part of me taking control of my health again. It wasn’t the only thing I did, but it was one of the few things that consistently made a noticeable difference.

What this whole experience taught me is that you really have to listen to your body. I saw so many specialists, and not one of them gave me answers. Some of them dismissed me completely.

But I knew something wasn’t right.

Today, I’m living in Mexico, in a small town by a lake. It’s quiet, it’s calm - and for me, that matters. I’ve come a long way from where I was.

If I could say anything to someone going through something similar, it would be this: don’t ignore what your body is telling you. Keep asking questions. Keep searching.

You’re not crazy.

And you’re not stuck.
