Being Lyme Brave

LymeBrave founder Susan Pogorzelski has partnered with leading Lyme organization Global Lyme Alliance as a regular contributor to their #MyLymeLife essay series.

"My herxes now seem mild in comparison: a few days recovering in bed, some muscle aches that are soothed with baths, words that still don’t come easily but aren’t lost completely. I recognize it now as the price to pay for eradicating the germs from the body—germs that desperately try to cling to their host with everything they’ve got, the herxes serving as one last moment of triumph, begging us to give up and give in.

We’re stronger than that. We’re stronger than the Lyme."
