In this episode of the Tick Boot Camp podcast, we have the privilege of hearing from Dr. James Neuenschwander, an integrative medicine and emergency medicine physician. Dr. Neuenschwander discusses his extensive experience in treating chronic illnesses in children, with a special focus on those on the autism spectrum. With over 35 years of experience, Dr. Neuenschwander is also the president of the Medical Academy of Pediatric Special Needs (MAPS). Key Takeaways: Defining Chronic Illness in Children: Chronic conditions in children, such as asthma, autism, and PANS/PANDAS, often persist for more than a month or two and can significantly affect their quality of life. Immune System Differences: While children generally have a more robust innate immune system, they are more vulnerable to Lyme infections and neurological complications due to their porous blood-brain barrier. Inflammatory Response and Brain Inflammation: Although children may not show severe inflammatory responses to tick bites, brain inflammation can lead to developmental regression and psychiatric symptoms, further complicating diagnosis and treatment. Co-Infections and Diagnostic Challenges: Co-infections such as Borrelia, Babesia, and Bartonella are common in pediatric chronic illnesses, making diagnosis more complex and requiring an integrated approach to treatment. Environmental Factors and Autism: Infections, toxins, and immune system activation are factors that can induce brain inflammation and increase the risk of autism, contributing to the rising prevalence of autism spectrum disorders. Importance of Integrative and Holistic Approaches: Dr. Neuenschwander emphasizes the need to address the whole ecosystem in treating children with chronic illnesses, focusing on gut health, nutrition, environmental factors, and immune system balance, rather than just targeting specific infections. Role of MAPS in Training Practitioners: The Medical Academy of Pediatric Special Needs (MAPS) plays a vital role in educating healthcare providers on integrative techniques for managing complex chronic conditions in children.

Welcome! Today, we're discussing my concerns with a single dose of doxycycline for a tick bite. Case Study: Ineffective Prophylactic Treatment I had a patient who took a single 200 mg dose of doxycycline within 24 hours of removing an engorged tick, thinking it would prevent Lyme disease. Unfortunately, seven months later, he was chronically ill with Lyme disease. He never developed a rash, and his lab tests for Lyme disease were negative. He eventually resolved his chronic illness with doxycycline followed by a combination of atovaquone and azithromycin. Co-Infections and Their Impact Ticks can harbor multiple infections, not just Lyme disease. In the Northeast, common co-infections include Ehrlichia, Anaplasmosis, Babesia, and Bartonella. These can lead to acute and chronic illnesses such as Lyme arthritis, Lyme carditis, chronic neurologic Lyme, Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), and Pediatric Acute-onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome (PANS). The Need for Effective PreventionEffective prevention following a tick bite remains a challenge. One study found that a ten-day antibiotic course failed to prevent Lyme disease. Another study suggested that a single 200 mg dose of doxycycline could be effective if taken within 72 hours of a deer tick bite in endemic areas.However, a single dose of doxycycline hasn't been shown to prevent common Lyme disease manifestations like Lyme arthritis, Lyme carditis, Lyme meningitis, POTS, or PANS. It also doesn't prevent co-infections such as Babesia. Concerns with Single Dose ProphylaxisA single dose of doxycycline raises several concerns. It may prevent the erythema migrans rash, which is crucial for early diagnosis and treatment. It might also prevent a positive test result needed to confirm Lyme disease early.Discussing Treatment Options I discuss with my patients the risks of prophylactically treating with a single dose of doxycycline versus not treating at all. I've seen patients return with acute and chronic neurological symptoms after a single dose of doxycycline.I generally follow two approaches. Some patients are monitored closely without treatment and followed up after a month to check for any signs of Lyme disease or co-infections. Blood tests can be helpful in these cases. Other patients are treated for 3 to 4 weeks with a follow-up to assess the outcome.  Patients and their families unfamiliar with Lyme disease are more likely to opt for monitoring. Those with prior experience with Lyme disease often agree to antibiotic treatment with follow-up. Conclusion We need a preventive measure that effectively prevents both acute and chronic manifestations of Lyme disease and its co-infections. Although we're not there yet, understanding these challenges helps us move closer to effective solutions. Thank you for watching, and stay tuned for more insights on Lyme disease.

Welcome back to another episode of The Wellfuel Podcast! In this episode, I will be sharing an update on my personal journey with mold exposure, including a recent exposure and the effect that had on my health and that of my little dog, Henry. I'll also talk about the connection between co-infections and mold, as well as my experience with treating mold and the positive changes I've noticed in my symptoms. This is a quick, easy-to-consume episode, but it's packed with information, so feel free to listen more than once! Takeaways Mold exposure can have a significant impact on health and can be a hidden cause of symptoms. Co-infections, such as Bartonella, can be connected to mold exposure and may require treatment. Testing for mold may not always be conclusive, and symptoms should be considered alongside test results. Mold treatment may involve both conventional and herbal approaches. Remediation of the moldy environment is crucial for long-term health. Toxicity from mold can affect the nervous system and contribute to symptoms. Gratitude and support are important aspects of the healing journey.

One of the hardest things about real estate investing is taking the initial step. Risk and failure can scare a lot of us, and we often talk ourselves in and out of taking the leap. But with so many resources at our disposal, various investment options available, and the ability to seek out mentors, there are a multitude of ways to make it less scary. In this episode, former professional skier turned real estate agent and investor, Athena Brownson, shares her journey into real estate and the importance of lessons learned from taking risks, thinking outside the box, and seeking out mentors for ultimate success.   The biggest key to any sort of investing is the necessity to fall on your face here and there in order to learn the biggest lessons and skill sets you'll use in the future. -Athena Brownson   Three Things You'll Learn In This Episode   Why failure is often inevitable and a part of everyone's path to success What skill sets and lessons can we learn from our failures to make better decisions in the future? The importance of coaches and mentors Can coaches and mentors make the path to success shorter and less treacherous? Why we need to look outside our sphere for new opportunities How do we find opportunities outside of our sphere of influence?   Guest Bio Athena Brownson is a Realtor and former professional skier. She is also the daughter of a real estate developer and an interior designer. Initially she was drawn to the interior design business, Athena found herself getting her real estate license and was able to take her passion for interior design and put it to work in a meaningful way. Her eye for aesthetics quickly gave her a leg up in her ability to get client's homes sold and helped build her reputation.   4 years ago, while recovering from a disc replacement surgery in her cervical spine, an injury incurred while skiing professionally, Athena was diagnosed with Chronic Lyme disease and Co-Infections. Unfortunately, the disease quickly overtook her immune system leaving her with countless autoimmune diseases and a long journey ahead when it came to treatment. At that point, Athena had already been in Real Estate for four years and had a thriving business and the skills necessary to succeed. Athena was determined to not let the diagnoses stop her, despite being told that many in her position would be on long term bed rest.   Today, despite the numerous health challenges she faces, Athena's business continues to grow year over year. She prides herself on being one of the most active and accessible agents in the Denver area, despite battling chronic fatigue and on-going treatment. Additionally, Athena has ventured into flipping and new construction real estate investing.   For more information, follow @athenabrownsonrealtor on Instagram, Facebook and  Youtube.

In this episode, we have Vanessa Bighinatti. Vanessa struggled for years with Chronic Lyme Disease, Bartonella, POTS, EBV, SIBO & Leaky Gut, Chronic Fatigue & Pain, and Parasites.At 24 years old, she was bound to a cane, at rock bottom, and thought she was missing out on the most important years of her life. After abandoning pastas, breads and cheeses, she realized how much food has an effect on her symptoms. This diet shift, though drastic, gave her hope for remission and changed her life. Now, Vanessa is happy to say she is in remission from most of these symptoms. She continues to heal each and every day, becoming more herself through nutrition and a holistic lifestyle. Where she once saw her illness as a curse, she can now find gratitude for the path on which it's taken her--to  becoming a certified holistic health coach! Vanessa is so inspired to help others find their own way and is happy to be able to guide others on their own unique journey, emotionally and physically, because healing is a lifestyle. FOLLOW VANESSA HERE▶ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/healingw.ness/▶ Website - https://www.healingwness.comFOLLOW US ON SOCIAL▶ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/TheChronicComeback▶ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thechroniccomebackSUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST▶ Apple Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-chronic-comeback/id1533970626▶ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCW_BGsN1LaeL4iudgSNUw7A▶ Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/71485tI9o4JPPkg1IpmDaX

Lindsay's story of chronic illness began as a teen when she tested positive for Epstein-Barr virus. While studying to be a physician assistant in South America, She fell ill to various parasites that kept her fatigued with gut issues after returning to the U.S.During a trip to the Redwoods, a tick bite unleashed the “perfect storm” — a build up of biological and environmental toxins due to years of exposure.She tested positive for Lyme disease, multiple parasites, systemic candidiasis, and other co-infections.Her doctors told her to make herself comfortable—that her diagnoses were something she'd have to deal with for the rest of her life. But she rejected this.I began reading about the brain's ability to change—a concept referred to as neuroplasticity—and made the decision to begin brain retraining.Once she begin to master this process and learned how to calm the stress response, her symptoms didn't just improve...they began to disappear and within 8 months, she was totally betterFast forward to 2018, Lindsay founded Vital-Side - a neuroplasticity based healing program that helps chronically ill or stressed people go from fight-flight-or freeze to rest-and-digestThis is a really exciting subject for me to talk aboutFOLLOW LINDSAY ON INSTAGRAM▶ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/myvitalsideFOLLOW US ON SOCIAL▶ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/TheChronicComeback▶ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thechroniccomebackSUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST▶ Apple Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-chronic-comeback/id1533970626▶ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCW_BGsN1LaeL4iudgSNUw7A▶ Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/71485tI9o4JPPkg1IpmDaX

Episode 14 of Real Talk with @butyoudontlooksickofficial and @noel_elie Noel and I both deal with multiple illnesses, as a significant amount of chronic patients do. We talked about the oftentimes complicated balance of life between the conditions, personal advocacy for our healthcare, full schedules, and mental health. The balance is not simple, but we discuss this balance further and how to prioritize your health and self amidst the sea of needs. Noel and I discussed our experiences in constantly having to advocate for belief, medicine, proper care, or even just the bare minimum in the medical system like many patients do. Chatting with Noel we related so much in our experience, and after covering a wide range of topics I'm sure our listeners this week will have something to relate to as well.

Shuailin Li, a PhD Student at the Jenner Institute in the group of Prof Helen McShane, studies the link between cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection and M.tuberculosis infection or tuberculosis(TB) disease. Infections rarely, if ever, happen in isolation: humans are infected with 10 chronic viruses on average and this imprint shapes our response to other pathogens. On this episode, find out how data from a vaccine study cohort uncovered a detrimental association between CMV infection and TB, the likely immunological mechanisms for this effect and the possible implications of these findings in endemic regions.

Why are chronic, persistent infections like Lyme, Bartonella, Babesia and others like long-COVID and Epstein-Barr Virus so difficult to diagnose and treat? Infectious Disease specialist, Dr Bela Chheda, MD, walks us step by step through testing options including Elisa, Western Blot, PCR, Immunoblot (Igenix, Vibrant America), FISH testing for Babesia (Igenix), and some of the uncommonly tested parts of the immune system like the T-cells (InfectoLab). She also reviews how these bacteria can hide deep within tissue compartments and intracellularly, and that they can change themselves to hide from our immune system as well as changing our immune system itself. This flows right into the discussion about treatments with a focus on antibiotics: when to start them, when to stop them, how long they may be used for and what they can or can't do for recovering from chronic persistent infections. Dr Chheda explains why the CDC-criteria for Lyme disease set in the 1990's to target surveillance of population health lacks the sensitivity to find the cases of Lyme disease out there that can be responsive to treatment and discusses the critical importance of interpreting all test results in the clinical context of the individual patient. This one-hour show cracks the nut on how to think about testing and treating of these tricky vector-borne diseases that can trigger a chronic persistent infection that impedes optimal health.

In this episode Dr. Wakely gives listeners an in depth overview of what Lyme disease is, how Lyme is being overlooked and current treatments. Doctor Wakely also explains why Lyme tests like the Elisa and western blot are not always 100% accurate. Furthermore, Doctor Wakely explains the patients he treats are complex and the patients he treats are usually the ones that have been to multiple doctors who have just thrown up their hands and don't know what to do anymore.Doctor Wakely also talks about the signs and symptoms that he typically sees in patients. He talks about why Lyme bug(s) hides, some fascinating stats on what's happening with children getting sick, and why Lyme isn't just the only thing you need to look for when treating a sick patient.Lastly, Doctor Wakely discusses Secondary infections called Co-Infections, and other toxins that can need to be addressed with Lyme patients. And how simple things you can start doing today to start the healing process from home.BIO: Dr. Wakely is a fully licensed physician, trained in both conventional and natural methods, Dr. Wakely's job is to “add so much health” to his patient's lives that there is “no room for discomfort, pain or illness.” His fascination with health and the human body led him to medicine after losing his mother and grandmother to cancer at a young age. He became disgruntled with the lack of cure and prevention in the conventional setting and decided to pursue naturopathic medicine.He graduated from Bastyr University in Seattle, WA with a doctorate in naturopathic medicine (ND). He works with patients all over the USA experiencing complex chronic illnesses and immune dysregulation who have typically seen between 11-15 physicians before seeing him. His focus is on environmental medicine and infectious diseases including Lyme disease, cancer, POTS, mycotoxin illness, heavy metal exposure, mast cell activation, pain, PANS, PANDAs and chemical sensitivity and leaky gut. He also has extensive training and clinical experience helping patients with autoimmune disorders such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis and rheumatoid arthritis using biologic and functional medicine. Because he is a wonder seeker, his current passions include orthopedic joint regeneration and metabolic issues like weight loss, type-2 diabetes, pre-diabetes, cardiovascular and metabolic syndrome and believes that it is possible to heal from these disorders.Dr. Wakely uses many tools to help patients get well including autonomic response technique (ART), depuration, drainage, herbal remedies, neural therapy, prolozone, neuralprolotherapy, low-dose allergen & immunotherapy, IV therapy, orthopedic regeneration, homeopathy, peptide therapy, nutrients and pharmaceuticals.You can find doctor Wakely at: www.holistichealingarts.orgOr find his videos on youtube: @top5withdoctorwakelyCoach Tavia is a business entrepreneur, a real estate mogul, a wife, a dog mom, and has a passion for helping people.Learn More: For more info go to www.healthcoachtavia.com

My guest this week is Lisa Rudy Williams, the author of Biohack Your Way Beyond Lyme: An Inspired Guide for Recovery. Lisa went from being a healthy, active kid to an adolescent with extreme anxiety and panic attacks – not long after her mother recalls finding a tick on her daughter. She was eventually diagnosed as bipolar and put on several medications. That was accompanied by a host of other health problems, including allergies, asthma and gastrointestinal issues. It would take more than 20 years for Lisa to be diagnosed with Lyme disease and co-infections. And even then, she and her family had to ask for that testing. Since then, Lisa has become a coach, biohacking consultant and health educator with the mission to empower others to take action and experiment with open-minded curiosity in every area of their life. Lisa is grateful for all of the lessons it's taught her and wants to be of service to those that are ready to move forward in their own journey to better health.

Lyme is known in medical circles as the great imitator, meaning it can affect many different areas of the body and present as countless other conditions. Some challenges in testing have also made it both underdiagnosed and a controversial diagnosis. And yet the bacteria in various tick borne illness can be an underlying cause for many people who struggle with mysterious gut symptoms and chronic overlapping health problems. In today’s conversation, I’m joined by Dr. Tom Messinger to parse out how these bacteria differ from one another, how they behave in the body, and why they can lead to other co-infections like SIBO, mold toxicity, and mast cell activation syndrome. A quick taste of what we’ll cover: • The barriers to diagnosing lyme and the most thorough testing • Why tick borne illnesses become more severe over time • Strategies for treatment beyond antibiotics, but also how you can support your gut while taking conventional medications • Babesiosis, Alpha Gal syndrome, and other permutations of tick-borne illnesses • How to combat neurological damage from lyme • Why these conditions overlap with SIBO and which to treat first • And so much more… Resources, mentions and notes: The SIBO Made Simple Book – Available to Pre-Order!

While COVID-19 continues to surge unchecked across the country, influenza cases this season have remained low - so far. A handful of people in the United States, the U.K. and China have become sick with the coronavirus and the flu at the same time. Early evidence suggests such co-infections increase the risk for severe and protracted illness.

While COVID-19 continues to surge unchecked across the country, influenza cases this season have remained low - so far.

Early evidence suggests such co-infections increase the risk for severe and protracted illness.

In this week's podcast, Sarah speaks with Dr. Thomas Moorcroft, a physician from Connecticut who specializes in Lyme disease and Lyme-related infections. He explains what co-infections are and differentiates between infections that are contracted from a tick bite, and concurrent infections that people with Lyme disease may experience. During the 2020 International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society (ILADS) conference, he presented several cases of known tick bites in which individuals tested positive for 3-5 different pathogens. He explains the implications of having more than one infection on disease expression and test accuracy. Dr. Moorcroft talks about Bartonella, a co-infection of Lyme disease that can be transmitted not only from ticks, but also from fleas, lice and bites or scratches from cats - hence its other name “Cat scratch disease”. He explains some of the symptoms of Bartonella, including sudden behaviour changes in groups of children after a lice infection has gone through their classroom. Beyond some of the unusual symptoms of Bartonella infection such as foot pain and muscle fasciculations, Dr. Moorcroft points out the often debilitating cognitive effects of the disease. He gives some pointers on clinical signs helpful in the diagnosis of Bartonella, including characteristics of skin changes that occur due to the infection.Finally, Dr. Moorcroft explains a mentorship program through ILADS, in which physicians, often in Lyme endemic areas, share their clinical knowledge and time with physicians who want to learn more about how to treat Lyme disease and co-infections. He also touches on some of the emerging research that was shared during the ILADS conference, including research showing persistent infection and mental health effects of Lyme disease.Show notes and resourcesPhysician Training ProgramGrants for healthcare professionals

Our guest, Dr. Rawls, started out as a conventional OBGYN. In his 40's when he suffered from fibromyalgia and Lyme disease, he quickly realized none of his conventional medicine colleagues could help him, and this was his turning point. We're looking at why you might move away from antibiotics and into herbal medicine to use a herb or fungi's own anti-microbial properties to your advantage. Dr. J gets specific herbs with direct anti-viral and anti-bacterial properties mentioned, like cat's claw, andrographis, Japanese knotweed, garlic extract, and cryptolepis. Some others like reishi mushrooms, cordyceps, and salvia miltiorrhiza (red sage) work well with the support of glutathione. This is such a great podcast, some other topics covered are the quality of the herbs sourced, the stress and stories behind every patient, everyday nutrition, patient assessment and testing (and how Dr. Rawls differs), and much more. ===================================== Subscribe on I-Tunes: http://www.beyondwellnessradio.com/itunes Review us at: http://www.beyondwellnessradio.com/itunes Visit us at: http://www.beyondwellnessradio.com Have a question: http://www.beyondwellnessradio.com/question

Her eldest daughter was bitten by a tick. They went to a doctor, who told them because it had been imbedded for less that 24 hours she didn’t have lyme disease. She tried helping her daughter heal from her disparate symptoms of gastrointestinal (GI) issues, autism, methylation, heavy metal toxicity. They finally got a lyme disease diagnosis when her daughter was six. Then her family and home got infested with lice, and then her entire family got sick with lyme. She started researching and taking control of her families health and now she and her entire family are in radiant health. In 2016 she took the knowledge she had to help her family achieve wellness and published it on her website debugyourhealth.com

Lyme disease is the most common American tick-borne infectious disease and it often goes undiagnosed or becomes misdiagnosed. Caused by the Borrelia burgdorferi bacterium, Lyme disease has the ability to proliferate within every area of your body, hiding from and suppressing your natural immune system. In this series we discuss the illnesses that Lyme disease mimics such as the flu, headaches, muscle aches, stomach ulcers, constipation and joint pain to name a few. We also discuss the controversy surrounding Lyme disease testing, treatment, and co-infections. We dive into ways to prevent Lyme disease and finally we close the series with various effective treatment options if you have been diagnosed with Lyme disease.

Gas, bloating, diarrhoea, constipation, reflux. Modern allopathic medicine still does more harm than good for these common and chronic health complaints. I often think about what my life might be like now if I’d listened to my gastroenterologist and written off diet, lifestyle and infections as a potential cause of my gut issues. I wonder if by now I’d still be taking anti-inflammatory steroids or if I would have gotten to the point where I needed surgery. A better solution was to take a deep dive into gut testing to uncover the root causes underlying my bloating and diarrhoea. Stool testing allowed me to find amoebic and pinworm infections, urinary organic acids showed yeast overgrowth. Together with some diet and lifestyle changes these problems were treatable with botanical herbs and with just one prescription medicine. My guest today is physician, researcher, author, critical thinker, educator and health enthusiast Dr. Michael Ruscio. Michael is a functional medicine practitioner who emphasizes nutritional and lifestyle solutions to the types of problems described above. He runs a busy practice in Walnut Creek, California where he spends two days a week seeing patients and three days researching and writing. Together with a small team of researchers, Michael is in a unique position to help people through his experience both as a practitioner and researcher. Best of all, he’s willing to divulge all his trade secrets on my podcast! This interview might not be the best place to start if you’re new to the idea of functional medicine and testing. If that’s you then I’d highly recommend listening to some of the early episodes of Michael’s podcast. In this interview, Michael and I go in some technical details of SIBO and other infections like Blastocystis hominis, Yersinia, Toxoplasmosis and Epstein-Barr. We also talk about how some of these infections might interfere with vitamin D metabolism, either by interfering with the vitamin D receptor, or perhaps increasing conversion of 25-OH D to 1,25-OH D. As a result, we're seeing low levels of 25-OH D on a blood test, but that's because it's all been activated, which is potentially immunosuppressive. There's also some evidence that inflammation (certain inflammatory cytokines) upregulates the enzyme CYP27B1, which creates 1,25-OH D. Here’s the outline of this interview with Dr. Ruscio: [0:05] Christopher’s introduction of Michael and his podcast. [2:50] Michael’s upcoming conference in the UK. [7:58] What is the SIBO protocol? [8:28] Great results from a case study Dr. Ruscio did with Christine, a patient who he guided into a new protocol,and why the principles of what he did are more important than the methods. [11:32] How Dr. Ruscio came to understand the principles behind his approach to intestinal health, and how he was forced to think through the varying positions he was being taught. [13:13] How emergency medicine and functional medicine are vastly different for good reason when it comes to protocols. [14:24] An example of why it’s vital to think through the principles and not just follow protocols. [21:11] Why it’s important to be careful with therapeutic trials. [24:16] Why researchers fall prey to omitting facts or studies contrary to their position, and why it’s vital for everyone to raise the bar on the practice of sharing data. [28:25] The gut infections Michael has seen and what he does to treat them. [33:20] Why diet and lifestyle come first. [38:19] Why Dr. Ruscio works with patients in phases and how he goes about it. [39:35] What does Dr. Ruscio do with things he can’t “fix?” [43:02] The things looked for when testing for Epstein-Barr virus. [44:30] Michael’s increasing respect for natural treatments for virus conditions. [47:45] The relationship of Vitamin D to infections and health and some surprising opinions Dr. Ruscio has in light of the Vitamin D hype today. [54:44] How you can connect with Dr. Ruscio. RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE Michael’s podcast The SIBO protocol episode Re-find Health Conference in London for practitioners with Michael is on Jan 17, 2016 Melissa Hartwig of The Whole30 will be speaking at the same conference the day before
