Could You Have Lyme Disease and Not Know It? Part 1
Dr. Darvish and Dr. Marian examine why Lyme disease so often goes undiagnosed, leaving patients struggling with unexplained symptoms for years. This first installment explores the complexity of tick-borne infections, the shortcomings of conventional testing, and how chronic Lyme can masquerade as a wide range of other conditions.
Topics discussed:
- Why Lyme disease frequently goes undiagnosed or misdiagnosed
- Common co-infections including Babesia and Bartonella
- Limitations of standard Lyme testing and the need for advanced panels
- Chronic versus acute Lyme disease presentations
- Symptom overlap with conditions such as chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, and autoimmune disease
