Since my last blog I was diagnosed with Hoshimottos disease. This came after a series of five biopsies on a growth called nodules on my thyroid that a nurse practitioner found while examining my throat, which had never been done before! About the same time I was diagnosed with Hoshimottos I got what appeared to be strep but the culture came back negative. After completing antibiotics and steroids I felt good for a day or two and relapsed with what appeared again to be strep but once again came back negative. A friend of mine asked me did I think I might have mono? Well I finished another round of antibiotics and my Dr. did the blood work but forgot to do the mono test. I went back and had the mono test and this past weekend I started getting bronchitis!
Well I went to the Dr. today and I have tested positive for mono! Even though I have good moments and bad moments I'm so glad I know now what I have, because I seriously thought what I was experiencing was from the Hoshimottos, so this gives me new hope!
This is a little set back for my music while I recover!
I will get back to blogging because I have so much to share with you regarding my music journey and what I'm actually working on now!
For those of you who haven't heard of Hoshimottos it's an auto immune disease where antibodies in your body attack your thyroid. Since my Limited Edition video I had gained weight and was having a hard time losing it! I'm in a closed group on Facebook and most of the people that have it recommended a gluten free diet! I have fought doing this way of eating once I learned what all has gluten in it!
A dear friend challenged me to try Whole 30! I started April 6 so today I am 17 days on Whole 30! It has been hard to tell how I feel because of my symptoms with the mono! I can tell that I am losing! Most of the people with Hoshimottos that have chosen a gluten free diet have even caused their Hoshimottos to go into remission! I am praying for healing. My blood levels are fine so my Dr. doesn't want to put me on any meds.
I'm anxious to get back to my music videos because they motivate me when it comes to self discipline and self control! Well I'm getting tired but I wanted to update you on where I am and what I've been going through! Y'all know me well enough that I'm not going to let anything stop me from achieving my dreams and destiny that God desires for me! I have overcome a lot of obstacles in my life and I will once again overcome!
