When Everything Feels Hopeless: How Kim Found a Path Beyond Lyme Disease and Chronic Migraines

Kim’s Story

“You know, I really understand what you're going through right now. Chronic pain—especially when it's migraines—can make you feel like you're living in a constant storm. I’ve been there.

My migraines started after I got bitten by a tick and spent over a year undiagnosed for Lyme disease. That brain inflammation triggered migraines that lasted for over 30 years—nonstop pain that weighed on me every single day. It made me feel trapped in my own body.

I went to countless doctors, specialists, and clinics—even the University of Michigan Migraine Clinic for the last 30 years—trying everything under the sun. I tried medications and procedures, blocks, and off-label drugs. And you know what? Nothing really worked. It was just a series of bandaids that offered little relief.

Honestly, I got so desperate I thought maybe I’d never find a way out.

And yet, here I am today, sitting here talking to you because of something that completely changed my life—the Freedom From Migraine Method®.

When I first found Debbie’s Facebook group, I was skeptical, of course. After trying everything for so many years—with no success—you start to wonder, 'Why would this be any different?'

But when I joined, I realized their program had something no one else had offered me: a holistic approach. It’s not just throwing another medication your way and calling it a solution.

FFMM teaches you how everything in your life connects—the science behind why migraines happen and how to address not just your symptoms but the root causes.

It hasn’t erased everything overnight. Healing chronic pain like this takes time, patience, and commitment. But I'll tell you what—it gave me hope again. For the first time, I could see a real difference.

My migraine intensity came way down. There was even a day recently when I had a pain level of 2. Do you know how long it’s been since I felt that kind of relief? Life-changing.

But beyond just the physical relief, FFMM helped me feel empowered. Before joining, I was at the point where I couldn’t see a way forward. I was so depressed—so desperate to the point I honestly didn’t know how I’d keep living this way.

And then suddenly, I had a community to lean on, real answers, and tools to fight back against my pain.

If you’re feeling scared to try something new or skeptical because nothing has worked for you in the past—I get that. I’ve been there too. But, trust me, this program is different.

It’s not about putting you on yet another drug or leaving you guessing how to get from point A to point B. Debbie and the FFMM method give you the framework, the education, and the support you need to reclaim your life step by step.

You deserve to feel better. You deserve a world where migraines don’t control your every move. And I’m telling you—with everything in my heart—it’s possible.

You just need to take the first step. For me, that first step was the hardest, but now I finally have hope again. And if I can do it, I believe you can too.”
