thank you so much for this wonderful session! This is so validating and helpful. Love that quote you never get Lyme disease until you get Lyme disease. Really great from you, and Dr. Ball was just wonderful. We are indeed gaslighted by the medical community.
Great episode! As a chronic Lyme disease patient myself, this is Spot On! -Thank you for sharing these insights. Very helpful insights/information for family & friends of us who are dealing with chronic Lyme disease!
Great interview I bought her book. Never thought about the oak tree with acorns in my yard being a magnet to critters and birds that carry ticks. I sent this very informative book of tick facts to my grand daughter who is a school nurse.
🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:06 *🎙️ Dr. Shelley Ball discusses the neurological and cognitive impacts of Lyme disease and co-infections, emphasizing their prevalence and severity.* 02:23 *🩺 Dr. Ball shares her personal experience with Lyme disease and co-infections, highlighting the challenges faced in diagnosis and treatment.* 04:27 *🧪 Dr. Ball's background as a research scientist and biologist motivated her to write a book about Lyme disease, aiming to make complex scientific information accessible to the general public.* 05:51 *📚 Dr. Ball discusses the psychiatric impacts of Lyme disease, including anxiety, depression, and personality changes, often overlooked in conventional medical assessments.* 07:28 *🧠 Dr. Ball describes her personal symptoms of Lyme disease and co-infections, emphasizing neurological issues such as short-term memory loss and executive functioning challenges.* 10:45 *🔬 Dr. Ball explains the neurological impacts of Lyme disease, attributing them to brain inflammation caused by microbial presence and systemic inflammation.* 13:48 *🩸 Dr. Ball discusses the autoimmune aspect of chronic Lyme disease, explaining how the immune system's overreaction exacerbates inflammation and symptoms.* 15:56 *🤝 Dr. Ball addresses the isolation experienced by Lyme survivors, highlighting the dwindling support from both the medical system and loved ones over time.* 18:24 *🗣️ Dr. Ball advises Lyme survivors to acknowledge their struggles openly, despite societal pressure to hide symptoms, and encourages seeking support and understanding from loved ones.* 18:39 *🧠 Cognitive issues with Lyme disease are constant battles, while psychiatric symptoms may fluctuate.* 19:22 *😡 Lyme disease can induce intense psychiatric effects like rage, leading to a loss of control and personality changes.* 20:32 *🤝 Personality changes due to Lyme disease can lead to isolation and a lack of empathy from others.* 21:56 *💊 Treatment for Lyme-related brain symptoms is complex and may involve anti-inflammatory botanicals and neural retraining.* 25:10 *🧠 Neural retraining based on neuroplasticity shows promise in alleviating brain-related symptoms of Lyme disease.* 28:39 *🙏 Gratitude and support are vital for both Lyme survivors and their caregivers to navigate the challenging journey of Lyme disease.* Made with HARPA AI
I know how frustrating it is. Can you afford to see a functional medicine doctor with Lyme disease expertise? Neurological Lyme can have overlapping symptoms with dementia, Alzheimer's, MS and more. A Lyme-literate functional medicine doctor will have treatment options to explore and won't just slap a dementia or Alzheimer's diagnosis on it. I hope you can find the right help.Wishing you the best.

So what if doctors have decided it’s dementia and won’t treat anything else? Or Alzheimer’s? And trying to tell them it’s Lymes, falls on deaf ears?
