Chronic Lyme Disease

Understanding Chronic Lyme Disease

“When symptoms linger, it’s not in your head — it’s in your body. And there is hope.”

What Is Chronic Lyme Disease?

Chronic Lyme disease refers to persistent or relapsing symptoms after infection with Borrelia burgdorferi, the bacteria that causes Lyme disease. While conventional medicine may refer to this as Post-Treatment Lyme Disease Syndrome (PTLDS), many patients continue to suffer from complex, systemic symptoms beyond the acute phase of illness.

📚 Research-Based Overview

Why Symptoms Persist

Chronic Lyme often involves multiple contributing factors:

➤ Persistent Infection

Studies show Borrelia can persist in tissue despite treatment, especially when protected in biofilms or low-metabolic forms.

📚 Embers et al., PLOS ONE (2012)

➤ Co-Infections

Ticks commonly transmit other pathogens like Babesia, Bartonella, and Ehrlichia, which complicate recovery.

📚 NEJM: Coinfection Study

➤ Biofilms & Immune Evasion

Borrelia can create protective biofilms that limit immune penetration.

📚 Sapi et al., PLOS ONE (2012)

➤ Immune Dysregulation

Ongoing inflammation, molecular mimicry, and even autoimmunity-like reactions may drive symptoms.

📚 Aucott et al., Quality of Life Research (2013)

Common Symptoms of Chronic Lyme

  • Fatigue and exhaustion

  • Brain fog, memory lapses

  • Joint and muscle pain

  • Headaches

  • Mood changes: anxiety, depression

  • Sleep issues

  • Digestive disturbances

  • Numbness, tingling, and nerve pain

  • Light/sound/chemical sensitivity

  • Hormonal imbalances

Symptoms may fluctuate or migrate, making diagnosis difficult and often dismissed.

Diagnostic Challenges

Most conventional tests (e.g. two-tier ELISA/Western Blot) miss a significant number of cases, especially late-stage or chronic infections.
