Is Your Lyme Anxiety Spiking from Afferent Vagus Nerve Overload?
Why Calming It Has Been Missed — And What Actually Helps

Many Lyme patients tell us their anxiety doesn’t feel psychological.

It comes in sudden waves — sometimes hourly.
No clear trigger. No racing thoughts beforehand.
Just an abrupt surge of panic, tightness, nausea, pressure, or the urge to escape.

If this sounds familiar, your anxiety may be coming upward from the body to the brain, not the other way around — through afferent vagus nerve overload.

WHAT AFFERENT VAGUS NERVE OVERLOAD FEELS LIKE
Patients often describe:
- sudden anxiety spikes without emotional triggers
- anxiety linked to digestion, inflammation, or pain
- waves of panic after eating, exertion, or stimulation
- feeling worse with supplements or “calming” vagus devices
- relief when lying down, fasting, or being very still

This pattern is different from generalized anxiety or stress-based anxiety.

WHAT’S REALLY DRIVING THESE ANXIETY SPIKES
The afferent vagus nerve carries signals from the body to the brain.
When it becomes overloaded, the brain receives constant danger signals.

Common drivers include:
- Lyme and co-infections irritating the gut–brain axis
- Mold toxins and inflammatory byproducts activating vagal signaling
- Chronic gut inflammation sending distress signals upward
- Stored inflammatory or post-infectious trauma patterns in the nervous system

The brain responds by activating fight-or-flight — even when nothing threatening is happening.

WHY VAGUS NERVE STIMULATORS CAN MAKE THIS WORSE
Many patients try vagus nerve stimulators, cold exposure, or aggressive breathing exercises — and feel more anxious.

When the vagus nerve is already inflamed or overloaded, additional stimulation increases signal traffic instead of calming it.

What’s needed first is gentle unloading and calming, not activation.

HOW THE ADVANCED SCAN HELPS IDENTIFY VAGUS OVERLOAD
The Advanced Scan helps identify:
- vagus nerve inflammation and reactivity
- infection and toxin patterns driving afferent overload
- gut–brain inflammatory signaling
- nervous system overload vs. deficiency
- which therapies calm the system instead of overstimulating it

This allows treatments to be matched precisely, not guessed.

TREATMENTS THAT HELP CALM AFFERENT VAGUS OVERLOAD
Based on scan findings, care may include:
• Auricular Acupuncture
Targets vagal-reactive points on the ear to gently calm afferent signaling.

• Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM)
Reduces vagus and afferent nerve inflammation, calms overactive signaling, and helps release stored neuro-inflammatory patterns.

• 670 nm LED Therapy (Abdominal Vagus Zones)
Soothes inflammatory signaling from the gut and supports vagus regulation.

• Vagus-Focused Breathing (Calming, Not Stimulating)
Uses slow, gentle patterns designed to reduce overload rather than increase vagal firing.

• Molecular Hydrogen Inhalation
Lowers oxidative stress and inflammation affecting the vagus nerve, brainstem, and gut-brain axis.
These approaches focus on reducing incoming danger signals, not forcing relaxation.

OVERWHELMED BY HOURLY ANXIETY SPIKES?
If your anxiety comes in waves, worsens with stimulation, or feels physical rather than emotional,

Six Reasons Lyme Symptoms Flare In Winter — And Why Normal Tests Miss Them

Flare-ups of fatigue, joint pain, malaise, neuropathy, and gut instability that worsen after Thanksgiving and into the colder months are rarely random.

When symptoms worsen with:
- seasonal shifts
- holiday stress
- dietary changes
- cold exposure
- increased inflammation
it often points to hidden drivers that standard testing doesn’t fully capture.

These patterns frequently involve six layered issues:
1. lingering Lyme or co-infections
2. unresolved mold or mycotoxin exposure
3. chronic immune activation
4. mitochondrial energy depletion
5. nervous system overload
6. impaired detox and drainage

Many people have already:
- treated Lyme with antibiotics
- addressed parasites
- cleared diverticulitis surgically
- “normalized” lab work
- tried fasting, acupuncture, PT, osteopathy, vibration therapy, wearables, and supplements
…and still feel like something is missing.

WHAT THE ADVANCED SCAN LOOKS FOR THAT IS DIFFERENT THAN OTHER TESTS
The Advanced Scan is designed to identify what’s still stressing the system, including:
- hidden infections or co-infections still triggering inflammation
- residual mold or mycotoxin burden even after “treatment”
- neurological stress patterns contributing to neuropathy
- immune dysregulation driving post-holiday crashes
- mitochondrial energy bottlenecks behind fatigue and malaise
- blocked drainage pathways that keep symptoms recycling

When these drivers aren’t identified, people often spend years treating symptoms instead of causes.

TARGETED TOOLS WE USE WHEN THE REAL DRIVERS ARE IDENTIFIED
When the Advanced Scan reveals what’s actually fueling relapsing symptoms, treatment often includes:

• Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM)
Targets inflamed nerves, joints, gut tissue, and brain regions while helping drain infection- and toxin-driven inflammation that medications often miss.

• Molecular Hydrogen Therapy
Rapidly lowers oxidative stress, supports mitochondrial energy production, and helps calm systemic inflammation driving fatigue, pain, and neurological symptoms.

• Nanoparticle Herbs & Essential Oils
Formulated for deeper delivery past biofilms to address hidden infections, mold toxins, and inflammatory debris that standard supplements can’t reach.

• Targeted Detox & Drainage Support
Matched to the individual toxin burden to reduce crashes, Herx reactions, and symptom flares as treatment progresses.

• Mitochondrial Energy Repair & Nervous System Stabilization
Supports cellular energy, stress-response regulation, and recovery capacity in patients who relapse after exertion, stress, or seasonal change.

These tools are not used generically.
They are selected and sequenced based on what the Scan shows needs attention first.

WHY THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING
Many people rotate:
supplements → medications → diets → therapies
without ever knowing which driver must be addressed first.

That sequencing mistake is often why symptoms keep returning.

ARE YOUR SYMPTOMS STILL FLARING DESPITE “DOING EVERYTHING RIGHT”?
If fatigue, pain, neuropathy, or gut issues keep flaring despite normal tests and years of treatment,

📞 Call us at 301-228-3764 to discuss how the Advanced Scan can help identify what’s still driving your symptoms — and build a clinically effective plan to heal the hidden issues causing fatigue, pain, neuropathy, and gut issues faster.

Is Your Myasthenia Gravis Really Being Driven By Hidden Infections?

For many people, a diagnosis of Myasthenia Gravis (MG) feels final — an autoimmune disease with one explanation and one treatment path.

But clinically, that is not always the full story.

THE MOST COMMON HIDDEN INFECTION PATTERNS THAT CAN LOOK LIKE MYASTHENIA GRAVIS
In practice, three patterns account for the majority of MG-like weakness, fatigue, and neuromuscular instability we see:

1. MYCOPLASMA (ALONE OR DOMINANT)
Very high overlap with MG
Known to interfere directly with acetylcholine signaling at the neuromuscular junction, leading to fluctuating muscle weakness, rapid exhaustion, and fatigue.

2. MYCOPLASMA + MOLD / MYCOTOXINS
Nearly identical presentation to MG
Creates mitochondrial shutdown, impaired oxygen use, severe fatigue, breathing weakness, and exercise intolerance.

3. MYCOPLASMA + EPSTEIN-BARR VIRUS (EBV)
Very high overlap with MG
Drives immune exhaustion, post-exertional crashes, and poor neuromuscular recovery.

These hidden drivers are frequently missed by standard testing.

HOW THESE INFECTIONS DRIVE MG-LIKE SYMPTOMS
These infections can:
- Trigger intense neuroinflammation
- Produce toxins that impair nerve–muscle communication
- Create Herxheimer-type reactions that worsen weakness and fatigue
- Disrupt detox and drainage pathways
- Infect and inflame the basal ganglia and anterior cingulate, triggering MG-like weakness and neuromuscular instability
- Damage mitochondrial energy production, leaving muscles unable to sustain contraction or recover normally

WHY IMMUNOSUPPRESSANTS DON’T ADDRESS THE FULL PROBLEM
Immunosuppressive medications may reduce antibody activity —
but they do not remove infections, toxins, or restore cellular energy.

When hidden infections and mitochondrial dysfunction are present, immunosuppression can:
- Allow infections to persist
- Further suppress energy production
- Worsen fatigue and muscle weakness over time

This explains why many MG patients feel weaker, not stronger, despite treatment.

HOW THE ADVANCED SCAN CHANGES THE APPROACH
The Advanced Scan helps identify:
- Hidden Mycoplasma and EBV patterns
- Mold and mycotoxin burden
- Inflammatory and metabolic blocks affecting muscle strength
- Mitochondrial energy suppression
- Which treatments the nervous, immune, and energy systems respond to best

This allows treatment to focus on removing underlying drivers while rebuilding energy, not just suppressing immune activity.

NATURAL TREATMENTS THAT MAY HELP RELIEVE HIDDEN DRIVERS OF MYASTHENIA GRAVIS
Based on Advanced Scan findings, treatment programs may include:

MOLECULAR HYDROGEN THERAPY
– Lowers oxidative stress, neutralizes toxic byproducts, improves mitochondrial efficiency, and supports neuromuscular energy production

FREQUENCY-SPECIFIC MICROCURRENT (FSM)
– Uses targeted antimicrobial, detox, and immune-regulating frequencies while also supporting mitochondrial and neuromuscular recovery

MITOCHONDRIAL ENERGY REMEDIES (INCLUDING NAD+ AND CREATINE)
– Help replenish ATP, support muscle endurance, improve recovery, and reduce crushing fatigue associated with MG

ADAPTOGENIC HERBS
– Help regulate immune signaling, support adrenal function, and stabilize energy during autoimmune flares

ANTIMICROBIAL ESSENTIAL OILS
– Target underlying infections while helping disrupt biofilms and reduce toxin load

GERMAN BIOLOGICAL HOMEOPATHICS
– Support immune balance while gently addressing hidden infections

REGENERATIVE PEPTIDES
– Accelerate tissue repair, mitochondrial recovery, and neuromuscular healing

SAAT ALLERGY ACUPUNCTURE
– Helps reduce autoimmune flares and retrain immune responses
Each plan is customized based on Advanced Scan results, not trial-and-error.

Exhausted By PANS (Pediatric Acute-Onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome) Flares Driving Brain Pain And Inflammation?

Many families dealing with PANS describe a brutal pattern:
Sudden spikes in brain pain, inflammation, anxiety, irritability, OCD behaviors, sensory overwhelm, and neurological crashes—often triggered by treatment attempts that were supposed to help.
Inside our clinic, we see this repeatedly.

WHY PANS FLARES CAN BECOME TOXIC AND HARD TO CONTROL
PANS is rarely driven by a single infection.

In the Advanced Brain Scan, we frequently identify layered, hidden infections including:
- Strep
- Bartonella
- Borrelia (Lyme)

These infections can:
- Trigger intense neuroinflammation
- Produce neurotoxins that flood the brain
- Create Herxheimer reactions that feel worse than the original symptoms
- Disrupt brain drainage and detox pathways
- Infect and inflame the basal ganglia and anterior cingulate, triggering classic PANS symptoms such as OCD behaviors, rage, anxiety, tics, and cognitive instability

When treatment kills pathogens too aggressively—without supporting detox and drainage—the result is often toxic flares instead of healing.

WHY REPEATED ANTIBIOTICS OFTEN FAIL IN PANS
Many PANS patients have already tried multiple antibiotic rounds.
The problem is not lack of effort—it’s biology.
Antibiotics may fail because of:
- Drug resistance
- Biofilms protecting multiple species
- Poor pe*******on into inflamed brain tissue
- Unaddressed toxins driving Herx reactions
- Immune overactivation worsening inflammation

Without identifying which infections, which toxins, and which brain regions are involved, treatment becomes trial-and-error.

HOW THE ADVANCED SCAN CHANGES THE APPROACH
The Advanced Scan Brain Sweep helps identify:
- Hidden Strep, Bartonella, and Borrelia patterns
- Neurotoxins driving pain and inflammation
- Regions of brain congestion and impaired drainage
- Triggers behind severe Herx reactions
- Which remedies the nervous system responds to best

This allows treatment to focus on lowering toxicity first, not just killing microbes.

TARGETED TREATMENTS WE USE FOR PANS FLARES
Based on scan findings, treatment plans may include:
- Nanoparticle Antibacterial Herbs and Essential Oils
Anti-Strep and anti-Bartonella oils formulated for deeper brain delivery and biofilm disruption
- Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM)
Anti-Strep and anti-Bartonella frequencies that lower neuroinflammation, Herx reactions, and brain pain
- German Biological Anti-Strep and Anti-Bartonella Homeopathics
Help lower symptom intensity, immune reactivity, and open brain drainage pathways
- Molecular Hydrogen Inhalation
Rapidly reduces oxidative stress and inflammatory toxicity in the brain
- Photoactivated Methylene Blue
Supports antimicrobial activity and mitochondrial brain energy
- Berberine and Curcumin
Broad-spectrum antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory support
- Nanoparticle Toxin Binders (Including Zeolite)
Bind neurotoxins for faster brain detox and reduced Herx reactions

Each plan is customized to address the top neurological symptoms and dominant patterns found in the Scan, not guesswork or one-size-fits-all protocols.

THE GOAL IS NOT MORE TREATMENT — IT’S LESS BRAIN TOXICITY AND INFLAMMATION
When toxin load drops and brain inflammation calms, many PANS symptoms soften quickly.
That’s when real healing begins.

EXHAUSTED BY TOXIC PANS FLARES DRIVING BRAIN PAIN AND INFLAMMATION?

Struggling With Shortness of Breath? Hidden Lung Issues That Restrict Your Breathing

Many Lyme, Mold, Long Covid patients experience ongoing shortness of breath that keeps coming back—even after inhalers, steroids, or breathing treatments.

What makes this frustrating is that very different underlying conditions can create almost identical symptoms.
We see this pattern frequently in patients with:
- Babesia infection
- Long COVID
- Mycoplasma infections in the lungs
- Parasitic lung infections (including lungworms)
- Toxic mold sensitivity and mycotoxin exposure

Why These Conditions Feel So Similar
Despite different causes, these conditions often overlap in how they affect the lungs and oxygen delivery.

Common overlapping symptoms include:
- air hunger or feeling unable to take a full breath
- chest tightness or pressure
- shortness of breath with minimal exertion
- fatigue that worsens with breathing effort
- dizziness or lightheadedness
- anxiety triggered by breathing difficulty
- symptoms that improve briefly, then return

Because the symptoms look the same, treatment often focuses only on symptom suppression.

Why Inhalers and Steroids Are Often Only Temporary
Inhalers and steroids may:
- reduce surface inflammation
- relax airway muscles
- temporarily ease breathing

But they often don’t address the root problem, such as:
- infection inside lung tissue or blood (Babesia)
- post-viral inflammation and microvascular injury (Long COVID)
- intracellular bacteria like Mycoplasma
- parasites or inflammatory debris deep in the lungs
- toxic mold–triggered immune reactivity and lung irritation
- impaired oxygen exchange from hypercoagulation or toxic congestion

That’s why symptoms often return once medications are stopped.

How the Advanced Scan Helps Identify the Real Cause
The Advanced Scan helps us evaluate:
- infections affecting the lungs or blood
- inflammatory patterns in lung tissue
- oxygenation and energy delivery issues
- toxic congestion and impaired drainage
- mold sensitivity and mycotoxin-related lung stress
- whether the driver is infectious, inflammatory, parasitic, or a combination

Most importantly, it helps determine which treatments your body responds to best, rather than guessing.

Treatments We Often Use to Restore Healthy Breathing
Based on scan findings, programs may include:
• Molecular Hydrogen Inhalation – lowers lung inflammation, improves oxygen utilization, and supports detoxification of lung tissue
• Frequency-Specific Microcurrent (FSM) – rapidly reduces lung inflammation, helps clear scar tissue patterns, and supports tissue repair
• Acupuncture – energizes lung function, supports immune regulation, and helps release toxic stagnation from the lungs
• Cupping and Bloodletting – helps pull deep inflammatory congestion and toxic buildup out of lung tissue
• Peptides – such as BPC-157 and Thymosin Beta-4 support faster repair of damaged lung tissue and recovery of healthy lung function
• Lung-Supporting Essential Oils – such as Peppermint for opening airways and clearing congestion, and Eucalyptus for reducing inflammation and breaking up deep phlegm
• Chinese Lung-Healing Herbs – including Astragalus to strengthen lung Qi and immune defense, and Mulberry Leaf to clear lung heat, inflammation, and congestion

Each patient's treatment program is customized to their hidden causes discovered on the Scan.

Still Struggling With Air Hunger or Shortness of Breath?
If your breathing issues keep relapsing and you’re looking for more than temporary medication relief,

📞 Call us at 301-228-3764 to discuss how the Advanced Scan can help identify the underlying causes of your lung constriction— and develop an optimal treatment program to restore healthy breathing faster.

Why Brain Fog, Fatigue, and Gut Issues Keep Returning — Even When Tests Are “Normal”

Many people struggle with a frustrating trio of symptoms:
• Brain fog that makes it hard to think clearly
• Fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
• Chronic gut problems like bloating, food reactions, constipation, or diarrhea

What makes this especially confusing is that these symptoms often look the same across different conditions — even though the underlying causes can be very different.

We see this pattern frequently in patients with:
- Lyme disease and co-infections
- Mold and mycotoxin exposure
- Parasite infections
- Long COVID

Why These Symptoms Look So Similar
Brain fog, fatigue, and gut dysfunction are often driven by
- overlapping pathways:
- chronic inflammation
- toxin overload
- immune dysregulation
- mitochondrial energy depletion
- gut dysbiosis and impaired detox

Lyme, mold, parasites, and post-viral illness can all trigger these pathways — which is why symptoms alone don’t tell the full story.

Why Standard Testing and Treatments Often Miss the Cause
Many medical tests struggle to detect:
- hidden or low-level infections
- chronic mycotoxin exposure
- lingering viral or spike protein effects
- biofilms that protect microbes
- subtle neurological inflammation
- gut dysbiosis driving systemic symptoms

As a result, patients are often told:

“Your labs look normal.”

And medications may help symptoms temporarily — but don’t resolve the underlying toxicity, inflammation, neurological involvement, or gut imbalance driving the problem.

How the Advanced Scan Helps Identify What’s Really Going On
We use the Advanced Scan to help identify:
- hidden infections contributing to brain fog and fatigue
- mold, spike protein and toxin burdens affecting the brain and gut
- inflammatory compounds impacting neurological function
- gut dysbiosis and detox bottlenecks
- mitochondrial energy suppression
- which systems are most stressed — brain, gut, immune system, or all three

Most importantly, the Scan helps determine which treatments your system responds to best, instead of guessing.

Targeted Treatments the Scan Helps Us Personalize
Based on scan findings, programs may include:
• Molecular Hydrogen Therapy – supports brain function, lowers oxidative stress, and improves cellular energy
• Frequency-Specific Microcurrent – brain-gut detox and drainage treatments to reduce inflammation and support healing
• Nanoparticle antimicrobial, anti-toxin, anti-inflammatory herbs – target hidden infections and toxins
• Anti-biofilm, brain-protective essential oils – help reduce microbial protection layers and calm inflamed brain tissue
• Peptides – support faster tissue repair and immune regulation
• Functional Medicine gut-healing and mitochondrial energy supplements – restore digestion, detox, and cellular energy
• Adaptogenic herbs – help regulate immune stress and lower chronic inflammation

Each plan is customized to the hidden issues identified on the scan.

When these issues aren’t identified, people often spend years treating symptoms instead of causes.

Still Struggling With Brain Fog, Fatigue, and Gut Issues?
If you’ve had negative tests, tried countless supplements or medications, and still don’t feel better,

📞 Call us at 301-228-3764 to discuss how the Advanced Scan can help identify the hidden conditions contributing to your symptoms — and create a targeted plan for clearing hidden infections, restoring energy and focus, and healing your gut more effectively.

WHY OVERTHINKING IGNITES BRAIN BURNING — THE MISSING STEP INFLAMED NEUROLYME PATIENTS NEVER GET

Many patients describe a very specific, disturbing experience:

“My brain feels like it’s on fire.”
“I’m thinking too much and can’t shut it off.”
“It feels like my brain is being squeezed or compressed.”

This is not anxiety in the usual sense.
And it’s not just stress or overthinking.

In many NeuroLyme patients, this pattern reflects neuroinflammatory sensitization.

WHAT IS NEUROINFLAMMATORY SENSITIZATION?
Neuroinflammatory sensitization occurs when brain tissue becomes inflamed and hyper-reactive, causing normal sensory input, thinking, or emotional processing to feel overwhelming or painful.

Instead of regulating stimulation, the brain becomes over-responsive.

Common contributors include:
- Lyme and co-infections
- Mold mycotoxins
- Post-viral inflammation
- Chronic immune activation
- Repeated Herxheimer reactions
- EMF reactivity (electromagnetic field sensitivity)

Over time, the brain loses its ability to “turn the volume down.”

HOW IT FEELS TO PATIENTS
Patients often describe:
- racing or looping thoughts
- pressure inside the head
- a squeezing or tight sensation in the brain
- intolerance to thinking, reading, or conversation
- worsening symptoms with mental effort
- relief only in silence or darkness
- burning sensations that feel like the brain is on fire

Patients also frequently say:

“Thinking drains my energy and eventually my brain just shuts down.”

Many add:
“If I think too much, my brain gets exhausted or inflamed.”
These are hallmark signs of sensitized neural circuits.

WHAT’S HAPPENING INSIDE THE BRAIN
Neuroinflammatory sensitization often involves:
- activation of microglial cells (brain immune cells)
- excess inflammatory cytokines
- overactivation of the limbic system
- impaired inhibitory signaling (the brain’s braking system)
- autonomic nervous system stuck in “on” mode

EMF exposure can further aggravate this state by:
- increasing calcium influx into neurons
- amplifying oxidative stress
- worsening microglial activation
- lowering the brain’s threshold for overstimulation

In an already inflamed brain, EMFs can act as an additional stressor that pushes symptoms over the edge.

WHY STANDARD TREATMENTS OFTEN DON’T HELP
Medications may:
- blunt symptoms temporarily
- sedate the nervous system
- suppress emotions

But they often do not resolve the underlying inflammation, toxin burden, infection, EMF-related reactivity, or drainage blockages driving the sensitization.

That’s why many patients say:

“Nothing actually fixes it — it just dulls me.”

HOW THE ADVANCED SCAN HELPS
The Advanced Scan helps identify:
- inflamed and over-reactive brain regions
- neurotoxic compounds affecting the nervous system
- infections contributing to brain inflammation
- autonomic dysregulation patterns
- EMF sensitivity patterns that worsen neurological symptoms
- glymphatic drainage blockages that prevent brain detox and pressure relief
- which treatments reduce reactivity instead of increasing it
This allows us to target the drivers, not just the sensations.

TREATMENTS WE USE TO CALM A SENSITIZED BRAIN
Based on scan findings, programs may include:
- Molecular Hydrogen Therapy to rapidly lower neuroinflammation and oxidative stress
- Frequency-Specific Microcurrent (FSM) to calm inflamed brain circuits and stabilize overactive signaling
- Neuroprotective and anti-biofilm essential oils to reduce limbic overactivation and increase glymphatic brain drainage
- Detox and drainage remedies to clear inflammatory and neurotoxic byproducts
- Scalp electroacupuncture to downshift overactive brain regions and support glymphatic flow
- Mitochondrial and neurotransmitter support to restore regulation and resilience
- EMF exposure reduction strategies when sensitivity is identified

The goal is not sedation — it is restoring the brain’s ability to self-regulate and drain inflammation.

DOES OVERTHINKING SQUEEZE YOUR BRAIN AND SET IT ON FIRE?
If thinking, stimulation, EMF exposure, or mental effort consistently drains your energy and causes your brain to shut down,

📞 Call us at 301-228-3764 to discuss how the Advanced Scan can help identify what is sensitizing your brain — and which targeted treatments can calm inflammation, restore drainage, reduce reactivity, and help your nervous system recover.

Still Crashing After Minimal Activity? Why Long COVID Fatigue Doesn’t Improve Like Other Fatigue

Many Lyme patients with Long COVID have described a type of fatigue that feels unlike anything they’ve experienced before.

It’s not just tiredness. It’s collapse after minimal effort, shortness of breath, brain fog, and a body that no longer rebounds the way it used to.

This matters — because Long COVID fatigue is driven by different mechanisms than Babesia, mold, EBV, or Lyme-related fatigue.

HOW LONG COVID FATIGUE SHOWS UP
Patients commonly report:
- extreme exhaustion after light activity
- delayed crashes hours to days later (post-exertional malaise)
- shortness of breath or air hunger
- brain fog and slowed processing
- dizziness, heart rate swings, temperature intolerance
- feeling “wired but exhausted”

Rest alone doesn’t fix it — and pushing through often makes symptoms worse.

WHAT’S DRIVING LONG COVID FATIGUE
Long COVID fatigue is primarily a system-wide dysregulation problem, not just an infection issue.

Key drivers include:
- persistent immune activation and inflammatory signaling
- endothelial injury and impaired microcirculation
- microclotting and hypercoagulation limiting oxygen delivery
- autonomic nervous system imbalance (POTS-like patterns)
- mitochondrial stress and impaired energy production

Even when standard labs look “normal,” oxygen and nutrients may not be reaching tissues efficiently, especially the brain and muscles.

WHY MEDICATIONS OFTEN DON’T RESOLVE THE FATIGUE
Many medications are designed to:
- suppress symptoms
- target acute infection
- manage inflammation broadly

But they often don’t address:
- microvascular injury
- hypercoagulation
- autonomic dysfunction
- mitochondrial energy failure

As a result, patients may see partial improvement — but fatigue, brain fog, and crashes persist.

HOW THE ADVANCED SCAN HELPS
Our Advanced Scan helps identify:
- patterns of reduced oxygenation
- inflammatory drivers still active after COVID
- microcirculation and coagulation stress
- nervous system imbalance
- mitochondrial and energy deficits

Most importantly, it helps determine which treatments your system responds to best, instead of trial-and-error.

ADVANCED SCAN–GUIDED TREATMENTS FOR LONG COVID FATIGUE
Based on scan findings, programs may include:
- Molecular Hydrogen Therapy – lowers oxidative stress and inflammation while supporting cellular respiration and oxygen utilization
- Frequency-Specific Microcurrent (FSM) – targets inflammation, autonomic imbalance, and tissue recovery at a deep level
- Fibrinolytic Enzymes – help break down microclots and improve microcirculation and oxygen delivery
- Cupping and Bloodletting – support circulation, reduce stagnation, and relieve inflammatory load
- Antiviral Essential Oils – such as Eucalyptus globulus to support antiviral and respiratory pathways
- Antiviral / Anti-COVID Herbs – including artemisia annua and turmeric selected to support immune regulation rather than overstimulation
- Targeted Supplements – including quercetin to support antiviral activity, inflammation control, and endothelial health

The goal is not just symptom suppression — but restoring circulation, oxygen delivery, nervous system balance, and energy production.

STILL STRUGGLING WITH LONG COVID FATIGUE?
If extreme fatigue, shortness of breath, or brain fog isn’t improving after months of medications or treatments,

📞 Call us at 301-228-3764 to discuss how the Advanced Scan can help identify the underlying drivers of Long COVID fatigue — and determine optimal treatments to help resolve it more effectively.

Our Story

We use advanced research methods to formulate microparticle “liposome” remedies to help our patients get rid of persistent neurological and systemic Lyme disease symptoms. These microparticle liposomes can carry antimicrobial remedies deeper into the brain, cells, and organs where Lyme and co-infections hide out. We use natural remedies like essential oils, organic and wildcrafted herbs, and supplements in our liposomes.

In addition to remedies, we use an advanced electrical frequency scanning system to detect over 500 different infection frequencies. We also scan for toxins, heavy metals, and inflammatory compounds. We custom formulate remedies for each patient to target their biggest infections, toxins, and symptoms.

We also custom design antimicrobial microcurrent treatments to clear out infections, toxins, inflammation in different regions of the brain, inside cells, and under biofilms.
