Chronic Lyme Disease symptoms can include everything from the arthritis and neurological symptoms of untreated, disseminated late-stage Lyme to the so-called "post-Lyme" fatigue, joint pain, headache, brain fog, and other symptoms that persist even after treatment with antibiotics. The truth [...]
As scientists delve deeper into the actual biology of Borrelia burgdorferi, rather than just treating the symptoms it causes, they've begun to make discoveries with exciting implications for Lyme Disease treatment. One new finding is that the bacterium seems to [...]
In one of the great ironies of medical science, Lyme Disease symptoms often worsen significantly just before the patient begins to recover. In fact, many patients claim that they've never been sicker. This is due to something doctors call the [...]
It's a medical fact that chronic Lyme Disease symptoms, especially that suite of neurological effects called neuroborreliosis, are sometimes mistaken for Alzheimer's Disease (AD). It's not too much of a cognitive leap to wonder: is it possible that LD could [...]
In advanced cases, Lyme Disease symptoms can include neurological problems: mood swings, brain fog, memory loss, facial palsy or paralysis, changes in sleep patterns, tingling in extremities, shooting pains, weakness in the legs... and worse. Some of these effects are [...]
Ionic foot baths represent one of the most promising new treatments for the scourge of Lyme Disease, offering gentle palliative care that involves no harsh medications or painful procedures. They're especially useful for those working through the painful detoxification process [...]
Even after decades of research, some things about Borrelia burgdorferi, the Lyme Disease bacterium, still evade scientific comprehension. For example, we still don't really understand how it causes the bewildering array of symptoms that LD patients can present. But we [...]
Expeditious Lyme Disease treatment is critical for children, even more than it is for adults. Unless immediately treated, Lyme Disease can absolutely ruin a kid's childhood, making them old before their time with the attendant pain, joint problems, and crushing [...]
Although the disease is highly mutable and never seems to present the same way in every patient, standard Lyme Disease treatment protocols don't seem to change much. Sadly, even doctors who want to treat LD aggressively are hamstrung by ineffective [...]
As the medical profession has learned long since, it can be difficult to define universal Lyme Disease treatment guidelines. Leaving politics aside, the biggest problem is that the disease is amazingly protean, varying from stage to stage and from person [...]
