Understanding Chronic Infections
Chronic symptoms can often be linked to infections that are not immediately apparent, such as Babesia, Borrelia, and Bartonella. These infections, commonly misunderstood as gastrointestinal issues, can produce a wide range of symptoms including joint pain, anxiety, and digestive disturbances. Studies suggest that if three or more chronic symptoms are present, this may indicate an underlying infection, prompting the need for further investigation. A questionnaire known as the M-CIDS 38 can aid in identifying the likelihood of these infections by correlating symptom presence with potential underlying causes.
