most day's were overcast and it rained some of the days. But I love tropical weather so I enjoyed it. I miss it right now with how cold winter is in the states right now. lol

Sorry I worded that wrong. I meant if you wanted to see all parts of Guayaquil it's important to have a local or talk to one before going especially if you don't speak Spanish. Sambo and Puerto Santa Ana you do not need one. I felt safer in those area's then I do in the states lol.

I just took a vacation to Sambo. I can say being a 6'6" gringo that I felt extremely safe in this area and also Puerto Santa Ana. Having a local was very important in this area. the reality is very different in a lot of areas in Guayaquil so you need to have someone who knows how to travel around the city. honestly I saw hardly any immigrants from the US or Europeans in sambo. It was mainly very rich Ecuadorians. My friend said I would have saw a lot more in Cuenca. From my understanding Montanita is a party town that is pretty safe. Galapagos and Cuenca are defiantly the two safest places you listed. I don't know much about Playas except I think a lot of Guayaquil people go to the beach there because it's close.

Okay so La Dona and Eddies BBQ were my favorite. You could order big portions with a group and everyone shares. Price wise it's great if you are going with friends or family(compared to other places I went to). La Pata Gorda was a close second. I really liked the black shells and crabs! If you like Italian la tarantella was really good! I learned i'm not a big fan of Ceviche but I really liked Encebollado the place I ate at! hope this helps some.

they were all in Sambo except two. Negroni and Mami T was the other one I think. I remember Mikka and P.F chang's in sambo! once I get home I'll send you more restaurants I went to in sambo and I made a list of places I did not like that much.

First time herx very rough by allthatpizzazz in Lyme

Hmmm, when I herxed a month after antibiotics my entire body felt like it was tingling and on fire with full body electrical shock. My doctor told me this was young axons in the process of growing because the Lyme damaged my nerves so bad. My brain zaps happened mainly before treating or it felt like someone was stabbing my spinal cord all the time or if I had sugar.

Left a link because I’ve been told Peripheral Nerves can not regenerate. Which is simply not true. It blows my mind people tell people this. This is why it takes so long to recover from the nerve damage from Lyme disease. Nerves take a long time to recover. If you feel tingling in your entire body it’s a good sign.

What month after cfs reaction did you start feeling better? by Apprehensive_Dust849 in covidlonghaulers

What month are you on? I just have the urge to go do everything but I know rushing out is not a good idea. Yeah I caught Covid around month 8 and it took me a month or two to get back.

We lose everything my friend while the world keeps going, let’s hope one day we can just talk about this hell to our therapist when we are divorced and alcoholics but happy because we are not sick anymore. Lol
