May is Lyme Disease Awareness Month, a time dedicated to educating the public about Lyme and other tick-borne illnesses that affect so many lives each year. Lyme disease, caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi and transmitted through the bite of infected ticks, calls for increased vigilance as we spend more time outdoors during the warmer months, not to mention all the other tick-borne illnesses that can come along with ANY tick bite. Early detection and treatment are crucial to preventing long-term complications, making education and awareness invaluable tools in combating this condition.
As a holistic nurse coach specializing in Lyme disease and Zyto scanning, I'm passionate about providing not only your care but also educating and empowering those affected by Lyme. This summer, I'm excited to offer a series of FREE in-person events in the Central PA area designed to illuminate the path to health and wellness for individuals and families navigating Lyme disease.

Here is Part 2 of my Lyme healing story. It's where you will see that I’m not really getting "proper Lyme treatment," but yet, I start to find my healing path through all kinds of twists and turns.
At this point, I had just gotten an actual Lyme diagnosis and just finished a month of oral antibiotics with NO (or minimal) improvements. Now my gut was wrecked, I wasn’t “better” magically, and my well-meaning family doc turfed me off to specialists to help manage my symptoms...

Lyme disease and coinfections can be a BEAST in terms of symptoms. Most people complain about crippling fatigue at one point or another.
But what’s going on exactly? And what can we do about it to get our explosive energy back?
