Lyme Disease mimics more than 350 diseases, several of which may have been present before the onset of Lyme Disease and may have even predisposed the patient to developing Lyme Disease. Some of the disease processes that mimic Lyme Disease can be brought on by chronic illness and therefore may have been caused by the Lyme infections. Many of these co-conditions make it much more difficult for a patient to get well after all of the Lyme microbes are gone. Dr. Cowden will discuss these various conditions and how to treat them so that Lyme Disease (borreliosis plus co-infections) as well as these co-conditions can be more easily identified and resolved
