Clinical Strategies for Neuropsychiatric and Neurological Recovery
Join Dr. Aylin Ozdemir for an expert-led exploration of the neurological and neuropsychiatric complexities of Lyme disease and associated co-infections, based on a recently published peer-reviewed research paper (June 2025).
This webinar examines why Lyme disease is frequently misdiagnosed in patients presenting with cognitive, behavioural, and neurological symptoms, and how expanded diagnostic approaches can reveal underlying immune dysregulation and neuroinflammation when standard testing falls short.
Drawing from real-world clinical cases, viewers will learn about integrative therapeutic approaches to support neurological and neuropsychiatric recovery. We’ll explore practical strategies to better recognise, treat, and support recovery in complex neuro-Lyme presentations:
Why Lyme disease often presents as psychiatric or neurological illness The limitations of standard testing How expanded diagnostics improve detection Clinical insight: Real-world case examples Recognising complex neuropsychiatric presentations Integrative therapeutic approaches: Antimicrobial strategies Immune modulation Neuroprotective and mitochondrial support Long-term maintenance protocols to help reduce relapse Dr. Kunal Garg provides a brief overview of the application of CARE Guidelines, highlighting the importance of rigorous case documentation and high-quality publishing in advancing evidence-informed Lyme disease care.

Abstract

The diagnostic tests available to identify vector-borne pathogens have major limitations. Clinicians must consider an assortment of often diverse symptoms to decide what pathogen or pathogens to suspect and test for. Even then, there are limitations to the currently available indirect detection methods, such as serology, or direct detection methods such as molecular tests with or without culture enrichment. Bartonella spp., which are considered stealth pathogens, are particularly difficult to detect and diagnose. We present a case report of a patient who experienced a spider bite followed by myalgia, lymphadenopathy, and trouble sleeping. She did not test positive for Bartonella spp. through clinically available testing. Her symptoms progressed and she was told she needed a double hip replacement. Prior to the surgery, her blood was submitted for novel molecular testing, where Bartonella spp. was confirmed, and a spirochete was also detected. Additional testing using novel methods over a period of five years found Bartonella henselae and Borrelia burgdorferi in her blood.
This patient’s case is an example of why new diagnostic methods for vector-borne pathogens are urgently needed and why new knowledge of the variable manifestations of Bartonellosis need to be provided to the medical community to inform and heighten their index of suspicion.

You will recognize Marna Ericson’s name as her son had a severe bartonella infection.  She managed to take advanced imaging techniques on samples and found Bartonella alive and well in tissues surrounding where a PIC line had been removed.  She has teamed up with other researchers investigating Bartonella.  We can be extremely thankful for their work.

H.R. 7879 Puts State Dept in Charge of Organizing Foreign Govs For Next Pandemic ‘Vaccines’ & Drugs

New Bill Puts U.S. State Department in Charge of Organizing Foreign Governments for Next Pandemic Vaccines and Drugs: H.R. 7879

U.S. government operatives are preparing and organizing the global vaccine and drug response for the next pandemic before the next pandemic has even occurred.
Jon Fleetwood
Mar 12, 2026

A new bill introduced earlier this week in Congress would require the United States Department of State to organize foreign governments and international institutions behind the development and commercialization of medical countermeasures for future pandemics.

Pandemic preparedness is normally managed by domestic health agencies, not the State Department, meaning the bill would place the United States Department of State at the center of organizing foreign governments around vaccines, drugs, and other countermeasures for the next pandemic.

The current Secretary of State is Marco Rubio, a former republican senator from Florida (funding).

The Secretary would have the highest level of authority over the international coordination described in the bill.

The new federal legislation, H.R. 7879, was introduced March 9 by California Representatives Mike Levin (D) (funding) and David G. Valadao (R) (funding) and referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.

Officials within the U.S. government are constructing the worldwide system for distributing pandemic vaccines and treatments before the next pandemic has even begun.  (See link for article and contact information if you wish to express your opposition to pandemic orchestration)

The Great Alzheimer’s Scam & the Proven Cures They’ve Buried For Billions

The Great Alzheimer’s Scam and The Proven Cures They’ve Buried for Billions

Decades of neglect in understanding the actual causes of dementia have transformed it into one of the most costly diseases in existence.
A Midwestern Doctor
Oct 05, 2025

• Alzheimer’s disease is commonly thought to result from abnormal plaque buildup in the brain that gradually destroys brain tissue. As a result, almost all Alzheimer’s research has been directed toward eliminating amyloid, even after the basis for much of this work was shown to stem from fraudulent research.

•As such, despite decades of research and billions of dollars spent, this model has completely failed to produce useful results. The costly “groundbreaking” Alzheimer’s drugs only slightly slow dementia progression—at the expense of causing brain bleeding and swelling in over a quarter of those treated.

•In contrast, numerous affordable treatments have been developed for Alzheimer’s disease that target the root causes of the disorder, producing significant benefits at a fraction of the cost and without any toxicity.

•One neurologist, for example, proposed that amyloid serves a protective function in the brain and treats Alzheimer’s by identifying the underlying process causing dementia (which can often be diagnosed through symptoms). Remarkably, despite the method being proven in clinical research, awareness of it or the fact there are completely different types of “Alzheimer’s disease” which require different treatments remains almost nonexistent.

•Likewise, a strong case can be made that impaired cerebral circulation, along with impaired venous and lymphatic drainage, plays a pivotal role in Alzheimer’s disease.

•This article will review the common causes of cognitive impairment and dementia (e.g., cells becoming trapped in a shocked state where they no longer function) along with the forgotten treatments for neurodegenerative disorders—some of which, like DMSO, have extensive evidence supporting their use.

Dr. Dale Bredesen detailed in The End of Alzheimer’s, a few pivotal conclusions:

  • Amyloid protein is a protective mechanism the brain uses to protect itself from other stressors that endanger brain tissue.
  • Rather than there being one type of Alzheimer’s, there are actually three with different symptoms, and it is essential to recognize which type someone has before initiating treatment.
    • Type 1: Inflammatory – often metabolic or infectious
      • Type 1.5 Glycotoxic (hybrid of types 1&2) insulin resistance and chronically elevated blood sugar
    • Type 2: Atrophic – deficiences in nutrients, hormones, and other factors
    • Type 3: Toxic – exposure to mold, chronic infections such as Lyme disease, Herpesvirus, cytomegalovirus, fungal infections, etc. heavy metals, and household chemicals
    • Type 4: Vascular – hypertension, atherosclerosis, or anything causing chronic restriction of cerebral blood flow
    • Type 5: Traumatic – brain injury
  • The brain is designed to be able to adapt to the needs of life, so it is always creating or pruning neural connections and brain cells. Alzheimer’s, in turn, results from the loss of signals that sustain brain cells, and the dismantling of neural connections outweighing the formation of new ones, gradually compounding over the decades.

As such, his formula was fairly straightforward: identify the type of Alzheimer’s someone has, eliminate its causes, and gradually wait for the physiological momentum to shift from neurodegeneration to neurodevelopment.  (See link for article)

FREE: ‘Vaccine’ Free QuickStart Guide For Parents

Vaccine Free QuickStart Guide for Parents

By Larry Cook

The vaccine topic is very controversial and the amount of information about this topic on both sides (pro & anti) is staggering. I understand that it can be very difficult for you or any parent to sift through mountains of information and make heads or tails of it all. So, on this page I’m going to try and give you the fastest possible, most important points, with links to more information so you can do the in-depth research that you MUST DO in order to come to a conclusion that vaccines are neither safe, nor effective, and therefore, are not needed for your children, and were never needed for children. Let’s begin!

Vaccination & Natural Immunity

  • Vaccines never saved us: DEATH from all infectious diseases dropped over 98% before most vaccines were introduced. Measles deaths dropped 99.96% before the vaccine was introduced. Death from Scarlet Fever also dropped in the same way, and there’s no vaccine for it.
  • Unvaccinated children are healthier than vaccinated children according to numerous studies and the parents who have both (scroll down for more info).
  • Vaccines destroy immune CAPACITY, which is why unvaccinated children recover from illnesses faster than vaccinated children.
  • HEALTHY children do not die from infections – malnourished children do. Vaccines are not the solution – proper nutrition is. Vitamins A & C easily treat measles, for example.
  • HOMEOPATHY was used in the 1800s and early 1900s to stop disease outbreaks, but was stopped in the early 1900s by the allopathic medical lobby to make way for toxic vaccines and drugs.
  • High dose vitamin C – in the form of IVs, IMs and oral use – was used successfully to treat and cure a wide variety of diseases, including polio, since the 1950s, and is still used today by alternative doctors.
  • Vaccines do not confer immunity – meaning, they do not work. When a child winds up with the symptoms the child was vaccinated for, the unvaccinated are blamed, instead of the faulty vaccination PROCESS.
  • Healthy, well nourished children recover from childhood illnesses, and respond well to herbs, homeopathy, nutritional supplements and other safe and effective remedies – see book below.
  • Vaccines SUBDUE immune response, but this is NOT immunity – infections just go deeper into the body.
  • Vaccines aggressively overstimulate the immune system in order to create antibodies to injected antigens, but again, that is not immunity AND that overstimulation of the immune system never dies down entirely, giving rise to chronic health ailments.
  • Children have lived on in spite of being poisoned by vaccines, NOT BECAUSE OF IT (extremely important).
  • Vaccines cause autoimmune disorders, type 1 diabetes, cancer, asthma, allergies, eczema, seizures, autism, death, and dozens of other lifelong damaging ailments. See Vaccine Dangers for full overview.
  • Vaccines ALWAYS cause some harm, and often cause a lot of harm. See my Vaccine Injury Treatment Guide if your child is vaccine injured.
  • VACCINE EXEMPTIONS are available in most states in order for children to attend school or daycare without vaccines. Click either exemption information or California exemption information for details.
