Lyme disease can mimic many illnesses—fatigue, brain fog, joint pain—leading to misdiagnosis and delayed healing. At Patients Medical in New York City, we use integrative Lyme testing to go beyond basic antibody screens. Our functional approach digs into active infection, co-infections, immune response, and nutrient status—so you can heal from the ground up, not just treat symptoms.
We address the whole system, not just the lab numbers.
Lyme disease is caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi, transmitted by tick bites. Early signs may include fever, rash, or flu-like symptoms—but these are often missed. Chronic Lyme or Post-Treatment Lyme Syndrome (PTLDS) can cause persistent issues affecting joints, the nervous system, and mood kaplanclinic.com time.com.
Because it’s hard to detect directly, many conventional Lyme tests rely on antibodies—though these can lag, persist post-infection, or miss chronic, stealth infections. A multi-faceted testing plan is essential danielcameronmd.com columbia-lyme.org.
Kevin, age 45, endured years of debilitating fatigue, joint pain, and cognitive fog. Conventional Lyme tests were negative. With an expanded functional panel—including IGenex serology, Babesia co-infection panel, and nutrient tests—we discovered dual infection and nutritional deficits. His personalized protocol included herbal antimicrobials, nutrient IVs, liver detox, and brain-supportive supplements. Over six months, his energy restored, pain subsided, and cognitive clarity returned.
