Welcome to Dr. Lyd's Relief Rub Page. I have suffered with pain and fatigue since I was a teenager. I would just push through. As I got older it seemed to get worse. I had spoken with my doctor about my symptoms and he said it was more than likely fibro. He prescribed some meds, but I did not like how they made me feel, so I just went back to my go to and pushed through the pain. I went several years just hoping it was all in my head and it would stop. It got so bad that I would think about if I really needed to get up and go do whatever (ie go to the bathroom, get some food, walk the dog, go grocery shopping) as it was painful and I was so tired due to not being able to sleep. I would even count steps and knew how many steps were in between each of the major locations that I had to walk. I just couldn't believe that this was what my life should be like. I was thinking I am in my 30's, and I feel like I am in my 70's or older. What is life going to be like? There where days it hurt so bad to hold my son. I felt horrible that on most days I could not even take care of my kids. When it got to a point that my son asked "mommy hurts?" that day became my turning point. I decided to try and see what the doctors can do, as this was no way to live. My P*P sent me to a neorologist and then a rheumatologist which gave the diagnosis of fibro and to his surprise lupus. It hit me hard, as there is essentially no cure. All they can do is try this and that hoping that maybe this med will give 5-10% relief mixed with this to see another 5%, which adds to the quality of life. Since these things affect everyone different there is no tried and true method. I made up my mind later that week that I was not going to let this condition define who I was. I was going to do my best to have a better quality of life and take my life back and my Joy. I went through many combinations of medication, none of which I wanted to take, but knew what I was doing wasn't the best choice either. It was hard, since several of the medications caused severe reactions landing me in the ER. Still get anxiety thinking about the one medication that made me not able to move or respond or talk, I could hear everything but could not communicate. I felt like I was trapped in my own body! At this point in time I started using what I know and have been trained to do which is scientific research. I came across essential oils during some of my research and at first was like what is the deal. From a scientific standpoint I was like where are the regulations, where are the standards. What makes the essential oils so wonderful? After research more and experimenting with various oils and application types I found a new "hobby" that has turned into a way of living. I started using my knowledge from researching and formulations to find something that might help take all this pain away or at least give some relief. The more I studied the more I was convinced God was giving me wisdom. I was so excited that I was able to use natural products that God made to bring some relief to my pain and it didn't hurt that it smelled good while doing it!😊 I started noticing a difference when my doctor was amazed at how the swelling in my joints had decreased. He was like what are you doing different? I haven't changed any medication. I told him that I had been using an essential mixture and seeing if any of the natural properties might help me. He said well I would say that they might be, because I am amazed! Keep doing it!! There were some friends of mine that also suffer with pain for various reasons and I hated seeing them in pain. Since the essential oils are so expensive, I told them about what I was using and said if they wanted to try it, they could to see if they might get some relief. To my surprise, they were amazed at how well it worked! They were asking to buy it! The more people I shared this rub with the more feed back I got that I need to get this out there to people that are in pain. After being in pain for many years, I can relate. After much prayer, my husband and I have launched the product line of Dr. Lyd's Relief Rub! My mission is to bring much needed relief to those suffering day in and day out, and to be able to provide an alternative using the natural world my great Creator made.
