Lyme Disease and Chronic Fatigue: Connecting the Dots

This episode is brought to you by Functional Nurse AcademyAn often overlooked cause of chronic fatigue is chronic Lyme disease—a complex condition that is frequently missed in conventional medicine. Approximately 2.5 million Americans suffer from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), yet the traditional medical model rarely investigates underlying causes, focusing instead on symptom management with medications that do not address why patients are unwell.In this episode, I share my personal journey of overcoming chronic fatigue syndrome through a functional medicine approach that addressed underlying chronic Lyme disease.  I also discuss ongoing concerns surrounding guidance from organizations such as the CDC and how current diagnostic and treatment frameworks for Lyme disease can contribute to missed diagnoses and inadequate treatment. Functional medicine training for nurses:Interested in becoming a functional medicine nurse?  Join Melissa live at the next webinar www.functionalnurseacademy.com/webinar-registrationLearn more about the Functional Nurse Academy https://www.functionalnurseacademy.comFunctional medicine training for all other healthcare specialties and health and wellness coaches:https://www.christianfma.comThis show is also syndicated every Tuesday at 10am EST on The Nurses Report on America Out Loud Talk Radio
