Thank you all, so very much, for your prayers!! I have had such an easy heart all afternoon, and I know it is because I have you all behind me.

Bill's appointment went well. Basically the second opinion agrees with the first - all the tests are indeed normal, and he is still weathering the effects of the Lyme disease. He must not over-exert himself and he must get WAY more rest than he is getting now.

I am relieved that it is nothing more serious, but it bothers me so much to have him feel so poorly. What a number this disease has done on him! I tell you, I will gladly send him to bed early and let him sleep in late every morning if it means he will get better - and feel better - sooner.

The specialist wants Bill to call him in two months to report in on how he's doing. Hopefully with a concerted effort (or lack of effort, lol!) he will feeling much better in March.

Also, btw, the doctor doesn't think the tick we found on him last March was the one. He said you almost never find *the* tick that makes you sick. I have a feeling Bill had this disease a lot longer than we thought.

Thanks again, for all your prayers. I just don't know what I would do without all of you.

Wow, it sounds like you have to take it easy like when you have mono. He can't overdo it!

Glad the appointment went well, but now you have the struggle to keep him down! Do you have a breakfast in bed tray yet?

Two of my kids have had Lyme disease (Jack and Carrie) - in both cases we saw a rash and they were put on antibiotics. The doc said that the tick has to be on the body for 2 days in order to transmit. He said the same thing yours did - you very rarely find the offending tick.

I hope Bill is feeling better soon. Feeling flu-ey for an extended period must be miserable.

Glad to hear it isn't anything "new" in addition to the effects of Lyme. Prayers going up for the symptoms to be mild and the disease to clear out of his body.

We'll keep up the prayers, Dawn! It sounds as if the news is as good as it could be ... now we just have to pray that you guys can *schedule* rest and stick to it!

Take care of yourself, too!

I will pray for his full recovery. It is so hard to have your DH in less than good health. Such a worry.

So happy to hear that the appointment went as well as could be expected. We'll just continue to pray that by March the doctor will be amazed at Bill's progress
