I started talking to this client in the spring about her debilitating and mysterious health symptoms that seemed to have stumped her local medical community. After inconclusive labs and tests, she was told that perhaps her health symptoms were psychological and she was recommended to see a mental health doctor. That's when she stumbled on me and we began discussing Lyme disease and the Lyme coinfections Bartonella and Babesia.
Lyme disease and its coinfections have an incredibly long list of symptoms that include a HUGE host of neurological disorders. It can also affect your hearing, vision, digestion, cause disorientation, muscle pain, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and is oftentimes misdiagnosed as autoimmune conditions.
There are only a couple of labs that test for a vast array of Lyme and coinfection species (Igenex being one of them) which is why most run of the mill Lyme tests are negative. That results in misdiagnosis and mistreatment.
Thankfully this client fought for her health and was able to get the peace of mind she needed with comprehensive Lyme panels. Now we can start the healing process through detox, diet and lifestyle tweaks.
When it comes to your health, you have to be your own advocate! Doctors are people too and sometimes you need a second, third and fourth opinion before a medical practitioner can make sense of what you're working with.
If you're told that you're very real physical symptoms are "just in your head".... it's probably time to find a new health care practitioner.
