Lyme disease doesn't directly cause cancer, but it suppresses your immune system and triggers chronic inflammation. This creates conditions where tumors grow more easily and cancer treatments become less effective.
Let's talk about something most doctors do not mention. Infections have been known to bring about cancer. Do we claim Lyme alone causes cancer? The answer is no. It can suppress the immune system, make it difficult to treat it. But if they have chronic inflammation suppressed immunity. The tumor is growing, and you need to do something about that. That could lead to resistance in the treatment of cancer.
