In this podcast episode, the host interviews Evelyn (“Evie”), who runs Green Medicine of Wisconsin, a cash-based integrative clinic specializing in tick-borne disease in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Evelyn shares her childhood tick bite and classic bullseye rash leading to a clinical Lyme diagnosis, later symptoms like fatigue, headaches, and sore throats, and her path from trauma neurosurgery and primary care into Lyme-focused practice. They discuss 2026's increased tick concerns, Evelyn's high household tick encounters, and a wood tick that tested positive for Powassan virus. She describes common clinic presentations (fatigue, cardiac abnormalities, cognitive issues), challenges with testing, and the importance of foundations like sleep, nutrition, stress, and light exposure. Prevention strategies include tick checks, avoiding tall grass, permethrin-treated clothing, proper tweezers removal, and optional tick testing. Treatment may involve antibiotics, herbals, homeopathics, peptides, HDC helminthic therapy, ozone/IV therapies, and intravenous light therapy, with many patients improving over time.— Connect With EvelynIG: https://www.instagram.com/thefusionfnp/https://www.gmofwi.com/ _________Sponsored By:→ VivaRays | This episode is sponsored by VivaRays - VivaRays Blue - code YOGI https://vivarays.com/→ Bon Charge | Go to https://boncharge.com/products/demi-red-light-device?rfsn=8108115.26608d & use code SARAHKLEINER for 15% off storewide._________Timestamp:00:00 Tick Symptoms Surge01:15 Why This Episode Matters02:13 Podcast Intro And Disclaimers03:26 Meet Evelyn Tick Specialist04:41 Evies Lyme Origin Story07:21 From Trauma NP To Lyme Clinic14:41 Modern Tick Boom And What We Can Control37:34 Why Medicine Misses Lyme38:32 Terrain First Foundations39:50 Stress Hormones and Pregnancy41:19 Tick Bite Prevention Basics46:26 Tick Testing and Next Steps54:04 Treatment Options Beyond Antibiotics01:02:49 Testing Advocacy and Finding Help——— This video is not medical advice & as a supporter to you and your health journey - I encourage you to monitor your labs and work with a professional!________________________________________Get all my free guides and product recommendations to get started on your journey!https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/all-free-resourcesCheck out all my courses to understand how to improve your mitochondrial health & experience long lasting health!

Tick season is upon us yet again, and tick bite-related emergency room visits in the Northeast are higher than normal right now. It's hard not to resent these disease-spreading arachnids. Ticks spread pathogens like anaplasmosis, babesiosis, Powassan virus, and Lyme disease.  We're joined by David Allen, an associate professor of biology at Middlebury College to talk about the different types of ticks in the region, the diseases they spread, how to prevent tick bites, and how he learned to embrace one of the most detested parts of the animal kingdom. But first; the chair of the education committee in Vermont's House of Representatives will not seek reelection this fall. Rep. Peter Conlon (D-Cornwall) has served in the state legislature for a decade. He's focused his efforts in the last few years on education reform and the ongoing school redistricting debate.

The last time I spoke to Shannon LaDeau at the Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies, in February, we were in the middle of our first classically cold winter in several years, thanks to a wonky polar vortex. I asked Shannon if all the deep freezes might lead to a down year for ticks and tick-borne illnesses. She reminded me that blacklegged ticks, the buggers responsible for Lyme disease, are well-adapted to cold weather. However, to pass pathogens to us, the ticks must feed on an infected animal, typically a deer or a white-footed mouse. If the brutal cold affected them, we could frolic with less concern. Unfortunately, it appears we will not have a carefree tick season. LaDeau and her colleagues are starting their annual tick counts in Millbrook, and there isn't any hard data yet on the deer and mice populations, but "the ticks so far do not seem to be showing any signs of suffering from winter effects," she said last week. The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says that emergency room visits for tick bites are three times what was reported at the same time last year. That's especially bad news considering a report that LaDeau and the Cary Institute just put out with researchers at SUNY Albany: Ticks in the Hudson Valley are becoming more likely to carry more than one pathogen, increasing the chances that you could get multiple diseases from just a single bite. The Cary Institute has been studying ticks for more than 30 years. It has decades of data and ticks placed in cold storage in anticipation of additional funding and improved technology. For the recent study, the researchers screened 10 years' worth of nymphal blacklegged ticks — the poppy-seed ones that are so difficult to detect — for 16 pathogens. They found that about 10 percent were carrying more than one pathogen, but that the rate had increased over the years. The most prevalent pathogens were those that cause Lyme disease and babesiosis, a malaria-like disease that can be devastating for some but has little effect on others. (I found out seven years ago that I had it only because it came up in a test when I gave blood.) If there's good news, it's that diseases such as the Powassan virus, which can cause brain inflammation and meningitis, only showed up in a single tick, and the bacteria (Bartonella henselae) that cause "cat scratch disease" didn't show up at all. The researchers also didn't find any ticks with alpha-gal, a molecule that can cause allergic reactions to red meat. That's not surprising, because lone star ticks are most likely to cause alpha-gal syndrome. While they have been found on Long Island, they are not prevalent in the Hudson Valley and haven't been found at Cary. But the researchers did find a few ticks carrying pathogens responsible for Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, which usually isn't found in blacklegged ticks. What's causing these changes? It's not clear, but LaDeau has some hypotheses. If nymphs carry more than one pathogen, it's likely they picked them up from the animal they bit, because they're probably too young to have had multiple meals. That would suggest deer and white-footed mice can also carry multiple pathogens, possibly from having been bitten repeatedly over years. Contracting one pathogen might also make hosts more vulnerable to infection from a different pathogen. "There are some lab studies that suggest that that's possible," said LaDeau. If you find a tick has been feasting on you for at least 12 hours, get tested for multiple infections. LaDeau worries that the prevalence of Lyme disease in the Hudson Valley has made doctors less likely to test for other infections or to start patients right away on an antibiotic such as doxycycline, which is not the best strategy for other infections. For instance, treating babesiosis requires anti-malarial drugs. It's also worth noting that Pfizer recently announced that its Lyme vaccine, which has completed Phase 3 trials, is 70 percent effective and has no repo...

On a warm spring afternoon in the northeastern United States, a walk through tall grass can feel harmless, even restorative. Yet hidden in the undergrowth is a growing public health concern that few people recognize by name. The Powassan virus is rare, but it is dangerous, and its quiet rise is reshaping how scientists think about tick borne disease, climate change, and neurological illness. In a recent review published in the journal Virulence, researchers Manpreet Kaur, Monica Adam, and Prof. Megan Mladinich Valenti bring together decades of scattered research to tell the evolving story of this virus and the risks it poses.

Dr. Bobbi S. Pritt joins Tick Boot Camp Podcast for a scientific deep dive into Lyme disease diagnostics, co-infections, and emerging tick-borne pathogens. Dr. Pritt is Professor and Chair of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology at Mayo Clinic and Director of the Clinical Parasitology Laboratory in Rochester, Minnesota. An internationally recognized expert in vector-borne diseases, she is globally known for discovering new tick-borne pathogens—including Borrelia mayonii and Ehrlichia muris eauclairensis—and for advancing cutting-edge molecular and metagenomic diagnostic testing used nationwide. This episode offers essential clarity for anyone navigating Lyme disease, unexplained symptoms, or confusing test results. Dr. Pritt explains why standard tests often miss early Lyme, how PCR and molecular tools can detect active infection, and what metagenomic sequencing may offer for more accurate and comprehensive diagnostics in the future. Episode Summary Dr. Pritt breaks down how Lyme and other tick-borne diseases are detected through antibody testing, PCR, tissue analysis, and cutting-edge molecular methods. She explains how her lab discovered multiple new pathogens in the upper Midwest, the role of tick species in disease transmission, and why co-infections complicate diagnosis. This conversation also explores geographic spread, climate change, tick behavior, and the strengths and limitations of today's test algorithms. Key Topics • Discovery of Borrelia mayonii as a second cause of Lyme disease in the U.S. • Identification and characterization of Ehrlichia muris eauclairensis • Geographic hotspots and why the upper Midwest produces unique pathogens • Tick species differences: blacklegged vs. lone star ticks and their hunting strategies • Co-feeding in ticks and its role in pathogen evolution • Why early Lyme tests often return false-negative results • The science behind false positives and cross-reactivity • PCR advantages and limitations for detecting Borrelia • When skin biopsies can outperform blood tests • Differentiating Lyme, B. miyamotoi, Anaplasma, Babesia, and Powassan virus • When clinicians should order a full tick-borne disease panel • How climate and ecological changes drive new tick-borne threats • The promise of metagenomics and immune-signature diagnostics What You'll Learn • Why current Lyme testing algorithms struggle in early infection • How new tick-borne pathogens are discovered and validated • Why lone star ticks are more aggressive and changing regional risk • When and why molecular testing is more effective • What symptoms point to co-infections needing additional testing • Why doxycycline is not effective for certain pathogens like Babesia • How metagenomic sequencing could identify every pathogen in a single sample • Where diagnostic innovation is heading and what patients can expect

Lyme Disease and Your DogWelcome to our educational series on Lyme disease. Today, we'll discuss how to protect yourself and your loved ones, including your pets, from tick-borne diseases.Let's start with a story. One of my patients took precautions by using DEET and wearing clothes treated with pyrethrum. He also had a dog that wore a tick collar and was checked for ticks regularly. Despite this, he woke up with a deer tick attached.Ticks can carry several diseases, not just Lyme disease. These include Ehrlichia, Anaplasmosis, Babesia, and the Powassan virus. It's crucial to be aware of these risks."Many patients use DEET, recommended by the CDC, for tick prevention. However, DEET is more effective against mosquitoes. I've had patients report tick bites despite using DEET."Pyrethrum is another option. It can be applied to clothing, but not directly to the skin. It's effective, but can cause side effects like dizziness and headaches. Also, its effectiveness decreases with washing." Risks with DogsDogs can increase your risk of tick exposure. They can pick up ticks outside and bring them into your home. Even with tick prevention measures, ticks can still be a problem.I recommend using a dust vac on furniture before sitting next to your dog. This can help reduce the risk of ticks in your home."It's best to avoid letting your dog sleep in your bed. Ticks can leave your dog and bite you without you noticing."Special Concerns for Pregnant WomenPregnant women need to be especially careful. Tick bites can pose risks to both mother and baby. Avoiding tick bites is crucial, and if you do get bitten, consult your doctor immediately."Practical AdviceHere are some practical tips:1. Use a dust vac on furniture before sitting with your dog.2. Avoid letting your dog into the bedroom.3. Perform regular tick checks on yourself and your pets after spending time outdoors.4. Pregnant women should consult their doctor if bitten by a tick." Conclusion While dogs are wonderful companions, they can increase your risk of tick exposure. By taking these precautions, you can protect yourself and your loved ones from tick-borne diseases. Thanks for watching, and stay tuned for more tips on staying safe from Lyme disease.

Dr. Harsha Rajasimha, Founder and Executive Chairman of IndoUSrare.why global collaboration is required in rare disease research to promote cultural diversity and sufficient clinical trial patient recruitment to improve the efficacy of research outcomes.   The U.S. is dealing with a rise in rare insect-borne diseases, including eastern equine encephalitis (EEE), which has a 30% fatality rate, that has led to two cases and one death in Alabama. Connecticut reported its first four cases of the tick-borne Powassan virus, while the country is facing its first locally transmitted malaria cases in two decades, with seven in Florida, and one each in Maryland and Texas affected.  These developments underscore the heightened public health challenges in the identification and treatment of rare diseases.  About 7,000 rare diseases, mostly genetic, affect around 350 million people worldwide, with approximately 75% of such rare diseases appearing in childhood.  With 95% of these conditions having no treatments, the lack of representation in clinical trials is problematic because it raises questions about the applicability of the findings, since different patient groups may respond differently to identical treatments.  The median number of patients participating in rare disease clinical trials is 29, as compared to a median of 69 for non-rare diseases. In the face of rising public health challenges, how critical is it to address the lack of representation in clinical trials for rare diseases affecting millions worldwide? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Lexi Czar is a 27-year-old young woman from Creston, BC, Canada. She created Lyme disease awareness apparel and is and is thinking about relaunching her brand in the future. Prior to suffering the extreme symptoms of Lyme disease, Ms. Czar was a full-time student with a part-time job and was involved in many extracurricular sports and activities. She traveled throughout British Columbia and Alberta and was an extremely happy person with a great group of friends. Ms. Czar struggled with health issues as a child after a bad case of mono, but once she entered college her symptoms became more persistent. She had severe migraines and chronic fatigue which were dismissed and attributed to being a stressed college student. Unfortunately, Ms. Czars symptoms continued to worsen and expand, including body pain, insomnia, restless legs, bone issues, anxiety, and depression. After contracting dengue fever and being exposed to toxic mold, she was finally diagnosed with Lyme disease when she was 22. Ms. Czar was bit by another tick and reinfected with Powassan virus, Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (RMSF), Babesia, and Bartonella after making progress recovering from her initial Lyme diagnosis. Some of the treatment modalities she has used over time include stem cells, kambo, peptides, microdosing (with psilocybin), herbal antibiotics, ozone, light therapy, Rife, the FREmedica WAVE device, and more. If you would like to learn how a young woman from Canada is using a variety of non-standard treatment protocols to recover from chronic Lyme disease and co-infections, then tune in now!

What is anaplasmosis and Powassan virus and why are we so concerned about these infections? 8. What can we do to protect ourselves from tick bites? 9. What do I do if I've been bitten?
