At Gordon Medical Associates, we are deeply committed to the topic of Lyme disease treatment due to the prevalence of misinformation surrounding its management. Both acute and chronic Lyme disease are frequently treated inappropriately, which exacerbates the problem and contributes to the increase in chronic cases.

Recognizing the urgency and complexity of this issue, Dr. Steven Harris and Dr. Myriah Hinchey addressed it comprehensively during the recent Healing from Lyme Summit, providing valuable insights to help navigate this often controversial subject.

Episode highlights include:

- Understand the primary modalities and strategies used in effective Lyme Disease treatment

- Learn the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in Lyme treatment, including the role of natural and herbal remedies

- Discover how to personalize treatment plans for Lyme, considering unique needs and co-infections

The connection between the mitochondrial network, chronic fatigue, and Long COVID is rooted in the critical role mitochondria play in cellular energy production. Chronic fatigue and Long COVID both often result from mitochondrial dysfunction, where the cells' energy factories fail to meet the body's demands, leading to persistent fatigue.

Modern-day stressors, such as insufficient sleep, physical inactivity, and elevated psychological stress, exacerbate this issue by inducing oxidative stress and inflammation, leading to mitochondrial shutdown. COVID has highlighted these underlying issues, as the virus's impact on the body often triggers a cascade of immune responses and inflammation that disrupt mitochondrial efficiency, bringing previously latent chronic fatigue conditions to the forefront.

Dr. Eric Gordon sits down with Ari Whitten to take a deep dive into how to optimize cellular repair and renewal.

Episode highlights include:

- What is causing our fatigue?

- Mitochondria, beyond being the “powerhouse of the cell”

- The critical role hormetic stress plays in mitochondrial optimization

- Autophagy and mitophagy

- The gut-mitochondria axis

- Practical steps to improve mitochondrial function

Hypercoagulation and persistent microclots represent another component to explore as we study complex chronic illness. Long COVID has brought this issue into the limelight and has intensified the research into this issue.

Hypercoagulation has been suspected of contributing to autoimmune disorders, Lyme Disease, ME/CFS, and fibromyalgia. Dr. Jordan Vaughn has brought the work of Dr. Pretorius and Dr. Kell on Long Covid and hypercoagulation to the chronic disease community in the USA.

Dr. Eric Gordon sits down with Dr. Jordan Vaughn to discuss his research, testing, and how to begin to promote recovery.

Episode highlights include:

- COVID-associated coagulopathy, how COVID makes the coagulation system respond in a very different way

- Benefits of fluorescent microscopy for detecting blood abnormalities

- The tendency of patients with ME/CFS and fibromyalgia to hypercoagulate

- What Dr. Vaughn has found to be the most helpful in an attempt to help the body break down persistent microclots

- Thrombo-inflammation: thrombosis and inflammation of superficial veins

- Impact of venous pooling and insufficiency

- How to address POTS and lower-extremity pain

- Research on blood clotting and spike protein

About Jordan Vaughn MD, ABI

As owner and CEO of MedHelp, Dr. Vaughn has directed his organization to the leading edge of early outpatient treatment of COVID-19 for his patients and the greater Birmingham community.

Dr. Vaughn's treatment protocols are driven by understanding the spike protein's ability to cause endothelial damage and clotting in the microcapillaries. He also uses immunofluorescent microscopy to diagnose the presence of amyloid fibrin in the blood. Dr. Vaughn is the founder and president of the Microvascular Research Foundation and is a clinical collaborator alongside Dr. Jaco Laubscher, Prof. Etheresia Pretorius, and Professor Douglas Kell.
