To achieve a more complete diagnostic picture, the functional medicine physician carefully listens to each patient. They analyze medical histories, environmental, genetic, and lifestyle components. The physician then works towards treating and preventing complex, chronic disease through an individualized treatment plan. https://www.prohealthgroupinc.com/lyme daily 0.75 2024-02-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b6ffb45c4e064858290fae/1624683890369-MGXW85Y6TR1729ID4919/tickpic_2.jpg Lyme Disease - About Lyme Lyme disease is an infectious bacterial disease caused by a spiral-shaped bacteria (spirochete) known as Borrelia burgdorferi. There are approximately 300 strains of Borrelia worldwide which lead to complexity in diagnostics and treatment protocols. In its early stages, Lyme disease commonly results in a rash, joint pain and headaches. Later-stage Lyme disease is characterized by arthritic pain, cognitive difficulties, fatigue and other symptoms that can have an enormous effect on a patient’s life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b6ffb45c4e064858290fae/1624694353234-JXPUEZBP3620WST5WUO1/lyme-in-every-state-622x622528x363.jpg Lyme Disease - Make it stand out Image courtesy lymedisease.org https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b6ffb45c4e064858290fae/1624693410477-WAME3ST64NN86HSZM7N9/unsplash-image-Yizrl9N_eDA.jpg Lyme Disease - Prevention Walk in the middle of trails. Avoid sitting on logs and leaning on trees. Wear a hat, tuck in hair if possible. Wear a long-sleeved shirt fitted at the wrist. Wear shoes, no bare feet or sandals. Wear long pants tucked into high socks. Consider DEET for skin and permethrin for clothes. Do tick checks immediately and then again 3 days after outdoor activity. Taking a shower reduces chances of missed ticks as they often travel to warm protected areas of the body. If you find a tick, remove it carefully (see below) and save it. Ask your vet about protection for your companion animals. Also try Damminix Tick Tubes. Studies have shown that Damminix Tick Tubes reduces the risk of exposure to an infected tick by up to 97% on a treated property.

This test focuses on a single strain, B31 – mainly associated with arthritic symptoms. However, there are 12 known genospecies. One of these genospecies has over 100 strains in the United States and 300 strains worldwide. Due to testing problems, less than one 1 out of 2 people who have Lyme have a positive test. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has advised physicians that Lyme disease should be diagnosed based on the patient’s clinical symptoms and not the laboratory test. The laboratory test is merely used to report cases as a field study to the CDC. Find out why someone may have a false-negative test result.

While outside Olivia noticed a tick on her dog, Mo (short for Missouri). Olivia & her mom watched the tick start to burrow into Mo’s leg. They quickly found needle nose tweezers to properly remove the tick from Mo. As Olivia was removing the tick she asked her mom, “Is there an app that can show what ticks are around us?” That night Olivia looked online and found that currently there was no app to help track, report, and educate people about ticks. This gave Olivia the idea to create the TickTracker app to help keep everyone safe.

"If bitten, early symptoms include headaches, nausea, numbness, muscle aches, extreme fatigue and Bell’s palsy,” Lehman says of the manifestations on the more minor side of the spectrum. Severe symptoms include dementia and arthritis. It can affect people physically, cognitively and psychologically.” According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over 25,000 Americans were diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2013, but Lehman says this number is “significantly underestimated” due to factors such as imperfect testing and symptoms that mimic those of Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis and lupus." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b6ffb45c4e064858290fae/ed128c81-a205-44a5-b5ce-5314b3c3d28f/MB.png Erica Lehman, MD - Methylene blue–a new/old drug for treating Lyme disease LymeDisease.org – March 27, 2024 By Dr. Erica Lehman Excerpt: “This revolutionary medication has gained a positive reputation in the world of tick-borne diseases, similar to when disulfiram was repurposed for Lyme disease in 2016. I have found clinical success in using MB for many symptoms of Lyme disease, including fatigue, depression, brain fog, anxiety and much more. With its antimicrobial properties, using MB has enabled me to minimize the use of antibiotics and therefore avoid their potential side effects.” Read more https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b6ffb45c4e064858290fae/1625943996006-U611Z4WW9EMXDHA1YAX3/hellogiggles.jpeg Erica Lehman, MD - HelloGiggles Magazine, August 2017 "Dr. Erica Lehman, a California-based physician and tick-borne disease specialist says that as Lyme goes untreated, there are a host of frightening and debilitating symptoms reported by patients, including “swollen glands, light sensitivity, sound and smell sensitivity, heart palpitations, muscle and joint stiffness, psychological manifestations such as depression, panic attacks, anxiety, and suicidal ideations, twitching of muscles, Bell’s palsy, brain fog, forgetfulness, poor short term memory disorientation, word finding problems, tremors, seizures, blurry vision, vertigo, tingling, numbness, stabbing sensations, chronic cough, sweats, weight loss, weight gain, hormone imbalances, poor digestion, changes in bowel habits, chronic yeast infections, and poor immune function.”" https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b6ffb45c4e064858290fae/1656966093625-7W70IFVN14WVNASQYY3B/pamela_weintraub_article.jpg Erica Lehman, MD - A New Look at Chronic Lyme “Integrative physician Erica Lehman, MD, is another practitioner who now treads more softly in her treatment of Lyme patients. “A ­decade ago, I was more heavy-­handed with antibiotics,” she recalls. But a retrospective analysis of her patients’ outcomes has made her rethink her approach. She still uses antibiotics, including IV treatment to reduce the load of infection, but then she switches to lower doses and herbs as soon as possible. “Slow and steady wins the race,” Lehman says. Years of experience have helped her recognize patient clusters: those with neurologic disease versus illness that hits the gut, the endocrine system, joint tissue, and more. Each cluster has a different treatment protocol and separate path to wellness; though their problem may have started with a tick-borne disease, they face other issues now. (Much of her approach is informed by MyLymeData, a patient-powered Lyme-disease research project.) Because no two chronic-Lyme patients are the same, treatments must be highly individualized.” https://www.prohealthgroupinc.com/returning-patients daily 0.75 2021-12-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b6ffb45c4e064858290fae/1624678881626-IC6D27JWV1NZA381C7OD/arron-choi-bZDPN6pf7DM-unsplash.jpg Returning Patients - Returning Patients Patients of Erica Lehman, MD can purchase supplements from Wellevate, Emerson Ecologics, and Researched Nutritionals by using our patient code provided to you during your initial consultation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b6ffb45c4e064858290fae/1624679561989-MUP465G7SQHS1A0QXVL3/unsplash-image-Hcfwew744z4.jpg Returning Patients - Telemedicine Phone consultation (telemedicine) is available for long-distance patients out of state or overseas.
