In this episode of Integrative Lyme Solutions, Dr. Karlfeldt talks with Ali White about her extensive journey with Lyme disease. Ali shares her personal experiences, including the challenges of getting diagnosed and the treatments that ultimately helped her recover. The discussion delves into the complexity of Lyme disease, co-infections, and various innovative treatments she explored, such as IV therapy, infrared saunas, SOT treatment, and NAD IVs. Ali also emphasizes the importance of maintaining a positive mindset, lifestyle adjustments, and building a supportive community.
Ali White is the co‑founder and voice behind The Tick Chicks. Her journey began after nearly a decade of debilitating, mysterious symptoms — from severe nerve pain and fatigue to swelling, cognitive fog, and immune system collapse. For years, despite multiple tests, scans, and consultations with specialists (including podiatrists, neurologists, and a fibromyalgia expert), she received no conclusive diagnosis. At times, the excruciating pain made even simple tasks like tying her shoes impossible; she would later describe seeing her nerves “popping” under her skin.
After receiving a confirmed diagnosis of Lyme disease (following additional testing for co‑infections like Chronic Epstein‑Barr Virus and Cytomegalovirus), Ali shifted from patient to advocate. Determined to help others avoid the prolonged uncertainty she experienced, she channeled her journey into building The Tick Chicks — a platform dedicated to education, healing, and support for Lyme warriors around the world. Through storytelling, honest sharing, and community‑building, she aims to bring experts and survivors together and give hope to those still searching for answers.
