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.
