Dormant Microbes Causing Chronic Illness
About The Event The number of patients experiencing chronic illness has grown over the past decade. But many people may not know what or why they are experiencing chronic symptoms. With Lyme and other tick-borne diseases, symptoms may not develop until many months or years after infection, as the spirochete can evade immune responses and remain dormant in the human host for long periods. In longstanding or persistent Lyme disease infections, bacterial spirochetes may harbor inside major organs, including the heart and brain, where they could continue to wreak havoc over time. Dr. Bill Rawls believes these, and other dormant microbes may be the root cause of many chronic illnesses. He joins Project Lyme to further discuss how dormant microbes can react and create chronic symptoms, as well as how he addresses this in his patients.
