Part 2 – Lyme Disease

Lyme disease mimics many disorders. This leaves both doctors and patients without a clear cut answer as to what Lyme looks and feels like. Initial symptoms can look and feel like the flu. Headaches, fever, fatigue, swollen lymph nodes, and achiness wouldn’t immediately send you to the doctor. Lyme is usually not even on the list of diseases to check for. Chronic Lyme disease doesn’t “run its course” in a week or two like the flu. As it spreads in the body, more debilitating problems can arise.

Lyme disease symptoms are broad and not specific to Lyme alone. Symptoms can manifest as other chronic disorders like:

• Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
• Rheumatoid Arthritis and other joint pain
• Inflammation
• Lupus
• Multiple Sclerosis
• Autoimmune diseases
• Food allergies
• Neurological disorders like ALS, Parkinson’s, and Alzheimer’s
• Depression and anxiety
• Cognitive issues like brain fog and memory loss
• Headaches

With Lyme resembling these other diseases, the true cause behind them may remain unidentified.

There are huge misconceptions around the traditional tick bite “bullseye” rash. Doctors and patients think that if you don’t get the rash, you cannot have Lyme disease. Not every case of Lyme starts with erythema migrans (bullseye rash). Around half of people diagnosed with Lyme don’t remember getting the rash. As a matter of fact, it can be contracted without even being bit by a tick. Not too mention, most testing is so inaccurate

Can be contacted by all ticks, mosquitoes, gnats, mites, flies, ants, other biting insects, spiders, bees, wasps, hornets, lice, bed bugs, sex, animals, blood transfusions, biological fluids, urine, tears, saliva, gestation, lactation, birds, rodents, wild and domestic animals, raw milk, and some chemtrail exposure are all means of transmission which have been proven with medical research.

Most testing is so skewed and you will see so many false negatives. I personally chose DNA Connexions and found it to be pretty accurate after I encountered two negative western blot test.

This is an amazing video from Dr Klinghardt explaining the testing and why he too chooses DNA connexions..

There are so many ways to treat and try to heal your body, but it’s a hard long Journey that no one understands unless they have the illness. It’s a lifelong commitment and it takes so much drive and motivation. Healing is multi faceted.

Some will choose antibiotics, which I personally do not recommend, but opinions vary. I agree with these articles to why antibiotics are not the preferred choice of treatment.
