The Lyme pandemic exposed by Covid is a compelling topic for medical care providers as long haulers continue to grow. Bruce Patterson of Incelldx joined us to present new data on Lyme and the use of Long Hauler Index (LHI) and Severity Score (SS) to diagnose and monitor Long COVID. Most importantly, this combination of algorithms has allowed the diagnosis of Chronic Lyme disease. In this video, he describes the Lyme pandemic that covid uncovered, and how they are using machine learning to understand better what patients are going through.
New algorithms were discussed in his presentation with easy interpretation of the IncellKINE 14-plex cytokine panel for use by all physicians. A new report format will be shown that gives the probability of LC, Lyme, ME-CFS, or acute COVID during the initial visit to the Chronic COVID Treatment Center (CCTC). He also announced that all CCTC tests can be ordered by ANY practitioner now including MD, DO, NP, and PA. You can find him at www.covidlonghaulers.com.
Kristina has been on Dr. Patterson's protocol beginning in September of 2021, and has seen great success in lowering multiple elevated markers! We are very grateful for doctors like Dr. Patterson that conducts research without subjective bias, to truly put patients' well being first. He will be conducting a clinical trial for the Lyme community and look forward to sharing his updates as it comes out.
You will need a doctor to prescribe your protocol recommended by Dr. Patterson. His office will help you find one if you need it, direct any questions to his nurses and office that you may have. Texas Lyme Alliance, Kristina Bauer or any of our associates do not recommend using this video as medical advice. You can send this video to your doctor so they can learn about this application.

With 477,000 newly infected Lyme patients every year, and 40% of those are pediatric, Lyme patients need a working diagnostic and effective treatment. New developments out of Duke University, carried forward from the late Oncologist and Lyme patient, Dr. Neil Spector, shows promise to solve every Lyme patients nightmare for accurate testing and an effective treatment. Inspired by research that targets cancer tumors, these new findings in Lyme could also lead to novel R&D strategies for other diseases.
PORTOLA VALLEY, Calif., Nov. 01, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bay Area Lyme Foundation, a leading sponsor of Lyme disease research in the US, today announced the development of a potential new drug, HS-291, that targets and destroys Borrelia burgdorferi, the bacterium that causes Lyme disease. Published in the peer-reviewed journal Cell Chemical Biology, this laboratory study represents a novel paradigm shift for anti-microbial treatment research as it is the first to target and inhibit Borrelia burgdorferi HtpG (high temperature protein G), a specific type of enzyme within the bacteria that causes Lyme disease— a condition affecting nearly 500,000 new patients annually. The research was conducted at Duke University School of Medicine, with collaboration from University of North Carolina, Tulane University, and Stanford University, and HS-291 is currently in preclinical stage testing at UC Davis.
“As Lyme disease is currently treated with broad spectrum antibiotics and there are no targeted treatments, we are particularly excited about this discovery, and hopeful that our novel Lyme disease therapeutic HS-291 will specifically destroy the Lyme bacterium without off-target effects or antibiotic resistance,” said Timothy Haystead, PhD, professor of Pharmacology and Cancer Biology, Duke University School of Medicine, Bay Area Lyme Foundation grantee, and co-lead author. “This research has been an incredible opportunity to leverage knowledge from oncology to Lyme disease in order to design an investigational therapeutic that could one day benefit hundreds of thousands of patients with Lyme.”
This new discovery has implications beyond Lyme disease as it demonstrates that using the drug HS-291 to deliver cellular toxins to HtpG, a type of non-essential enzyme that assists the folding or unfolding of large and complex proteins, greatly expands what can be considered druggable within any pathogen and opens a whole new area of infectious disease research.
This work will require around a $10mm total investment to bring to the public. We are bringing this presentation to you today from Dr. Tim Haystead to show you the power of this work and why it's important to join us to support ensuring Dr Spector's mission is successful through donations. Every amount helps, so please donate at www.TXLymeAlliance.org/donate and subscribe to our channel to support our efforts to open access to care for Lyme patients.

Dr. Dan Kinderlerer discusses how he treats a lot of patient with THC and CBD to help lesson Lyme symptoms. These symptoms include lowering neuro inflammation, less night terrors, and lower pain and anxiety with great success. Every human has an endocannabinoid system only for processing marijuana, and nothing else as far as we know to date. Many studies validate it's use in MS, for pain, and many other benefits, one study is: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK425767/.
Please excuse the camera exposure as my old equipment was going out but I didn't want to not share the great information, I adjusted it as much as I could. *Not intended as medical advice. Medical THC/CBD is legal in Texas now and in a lot of states. Search your area for details, but in Texas a lot of people use Texas Originals: https://texasoriginal.com/.

This interview discusses challenges from neurological changes that can affect vision. Visual symptoms are common with tick-borne disease, and also can be associated with head concussions. Symptoms can include: blur, visual fatigue, diplopia (double vision), headaches associated with visual activities, photophobia (light sensitivity), losing place when reading, seeing words appear to double or become double when reading, and more obscure problems often not associated with vision such as difficulty with balance, spatial orientation, memory, comprehension, feeling of being over-whelmed by being in a busy-crowded environment with movement of people and objects, sensitivity to sound, to name a few.
The cause of the visual symptoms is due to the tick-borne diseases affects on visual processing in the brain. The visual processing dysfunction will affect function, performance, cognitive and balance related activity. Dr. Padula discusses that 30/35 patients tested positive based on Tick/borne biomarkers he discovered in patients eyes, then confirmed these findings in blood tests. His work is pioneering, and continues to evolve.
Listen to learn tips for protecting the visual and auditory process. Disulfiram has become a popular treatment and Dr. Padula discusses it's potential impact on brain processing. Compensation can create habits and coping skills that will need to be corrected through resetting and rehabilitation of the visual process. To reach Dr. Padula's office, email or call
[email protected], 800-591-1160. Physicians can take his training workshops and learn more about the impacts of tick-borne illness at https://padulainstitute.com/lyme-disease-and-vision-problems/.

NEW BOOK DISCUSSION ON GUT HEALTH & LYME RELATED EATING DISORDERS
Thank you for joining me for another discussion on your book, Recovery from Lyme Disease, The Integrative Medicine Guide to diagnosing and treating tick-borne illness.
Dr Kinderlehrer bio:
Dr. Daniel Kinderlehrer is a Lyme Literate internist in Denver CO. After completing a residency in Internal Medicine in 1979, he opened one of the first practices in the US in what was then called Holistic Medicine. After becoming an expert in nutrition and environmental illness, he became ill himself with Lyme disease complex. His long road to recovery has given him insights into what patients are going through; his background in internal medicine trained him to understand the complexities of his multi-systemic illness; his knowledge of environmental illness has enabled him to evaluate immune dysregulation; and his study of energetic medicine, spiritual alignment, and healing from trauma has yielded insights into how to help patients shift their belief systems to being well.
Recovery from Lyme Disease is by far the most thorough book available on Lyme Disease Complex. It will provide patients with information that will guide them on their healing journeys, as well as supplying doctors with instruction on appropriate diagnosis and treatment approaches. Dr. Kinderlehrer enjoys teaching his patients and the medical community, and we are honored to host him again!
His book is available on Amazon in March, please don't forget to leave a review.
How do you identify a Lyme related eating disorder?
What are they? anorexia, bulimia...
How do you treat them?

This podcast interview discusses why Kris wrote the book Bitten, and makes a call for new researchers to enter the field of tick-borne illnesses. We discuss how PTLDS blocks access to care for patients and the need to treat underlying infections. She describes how she and her husband got sick with Lyme and coinfections after a vacation to Martha's Vineyard, and how they could not get diagnosed and treatment. After a year passed after their infection and $60,000 spent, they got a diagnosis and treatment. They are now doing well but could've avoided so much by getting the help they needed early on. Her book info found here https://www.krisnewby.com/.
The views shared are of the person giving them and not of Texas Lyme Alliance or it's board members and affiliates. Nothing mentioned is medical advice. We encourage the audience to do their own research, read Bitten and watch Under our Skin free.

Very few Lyme patients appear to know that the Affordable Care Act (ACA) or Obamacare is written to give you health insurance coverage for persistent Lyme and all its complications. Learn about ACA's legislative language that protects your access to care in this video interview organized by Kristina Petterson Bauer, the Director of Texas Lyme Alliance.
This interview discusses ACA coverage for persistent Lyme and complications, the medical fraud of Post Treatment Lyme Disease Syndrome (PTLDS), the new Lyme medical codes in the ICD11, and government accountability regarding the Lyme epidemic.
This interview discusses the relationship between the Affordable Care Act/ACA and Post Treatment Lyme Disease Syndrome/PTLDS for Lyme patients' access to covered care with insurance companies. Lyme patients used to have covered care into the mid-1990s. Our discussion explores what that was, how we lost it, and why.
Watch the next 2 videos (loading soon) for the complete picture and what we can do to improve access to covered care and treatments that work.

This interview explains Biologix proprietary phage therapy that is showing success clearing Persistent Lyme Disease, or PLD and coinfections in a gentle way, even for the most sensitive of patients 45 days after treatment. Kristina discusses with Dr. Hart what a potential patient might expect from treatment at Biologix and why phage therapy. It does not treat known illnesses, rather supports the body in being able to do the work by providing the phages specific to each strain a patient presents.
Phage is a holistic treatment that has the potential of supporting the body to clear a multitude of pathogens such as Lyme, cancer, COVID, viruses, parasites, and persisters. A clinical study is underway to show the results of 30 patients. It will be shared on Facebook @ Texas Lyme Alliance, Twitter @TexasLyme on online at www.TexasLymeAlliance.org.
Did you know that your immune system should not be made solely responsible for killing the infections in your body? Phages—or viruses that do not infect human cells—are well-known entities whose sole purpose is to swarm host microbes and replicate themselves in order to attack and kill them. Using Induced Native Phage Therapy, we at the Biologix Center have discovered exactly how to access the bacteriophages (phages that attack bacteria), mycophages (phages that attack mold and fungi), and virophages (phages that attack other viruses) that already reside inside your body and induce them to eliminate, in most cases, all infectious microbes wreaking havoc there.
