A YouTube interview (Feb 7, 2025) featuring Robert Whitfield MD discussing hidden symptoms of Lyme disease, focusing on neural trauma, stress responses (limbic/sympathetic activation), the therapeutic role of EMDR, and microbiological aspects such as adrenaline-mediated strengthening of Borrelia biofilms.
Or another, you know, key thing I think for your audience is, you know, maybe having. I don't know if you see a lot of this, but I would imagine there are certain people where you're doing the removal and it's a hard process like the removal. They don't handle it maybe as well. Is that true?
Right. So I think, you know, from a neural standpoint, this is a very stressful event that, you know, a lot of people would do. They would be benefited greatly by going through EDMR or other therapy to help them. Because if someone goes back to a traumatic state, and we'll say in this instance it's a physical appearance, it creates somewhat unwanted memories from surfacing, so you could get in a very bad neural loop. And we see that a fair amount.
Well, and another link here that I hear in what you're saying is when we're thinking about the limbic system and that stress response and the need to do some of that neurological reprogramming brings us to that conversation of sympathetic, of that fight or flight adrenaline, nervous system overdrive. And we often see that adrenaline is something that makes the biofilms of Borrelia, the bacteria that causes Lyme. It makes the biofilms stronger, and it can actually lead to the biofilms creating a better cell to cell communication network between all the different Lyme bacteria. What do we do in microbiology when these bacteria communicate better together?
