Integrative Lyme Solutions with Dr. KarlfeldtAuthor: Dr.Karlfeldt SB Studios
Welcome to Integrative Lyme Solutions Podcast With Dr.Karlfeldt where you will hear hundreds of stories from incredible fighters against Lyme disease. If you or anyone is suffering from Lyme, you are not alone. Lyme Disease mimics over 350 different illnesses. It is known as the great imitator because the symptoms express as those of many other ailments such as Parkinsons, MS, Chronic fatigue, Fibromyalgia, and many other auto-immune and complex chronic health conditions. It is estimated that more than 300,000 people are diagnosed annually. This number may be too low because our current testing methods are notorious for producing false negatives, which you will hear many stories about in this podcast. It is not uncommon for a Lyme patient to spend hundreds...or even thousands of dollars to resolve their condition frequently without results. Help shorten your learning curve and save money and frustration by tuning in as Dr. Karlfeldt interviews guests who have successfully resolved their Lyme Disease and have saved their own lives using integrative approaches.

Carter and Payton Bradsky: Building “Ella,” the AI Companion Helping Lyme+ Patients Track Symptoms, Treatments, and Progress
Episode 237
Wednesday, 21 January, 2026
Carter and Payton Bradsky—siblings, co-founders, and the CEO/CTO team behind LymeLess Health—join Dr. Karlfeldt to share a deeply personal and practical conversation about navigating Lyme+ illness and how they’re using technology to change the patient experience. With Carter’s lived experience battling Lyme disease, Babesia, Bartonella, and mold toxicity—and Payton’s background as a former Google software engineer and product manager—this episode connects real-world patient pain points to a new kind of solution: Ella, an AI-powered companion built specifically for Lyme+ patients. Learn more (and find the app) at https://lymeless.com/.You’ll hear how their family’s journey began with their mother being dismissed after years of symptoms and dozens of doctors—until one chance conversation led to Lyme testing and answers. Carter and Payton break down what it was like to be kids and caregivers, how symptoms can show up differently in each person (from brain fog and anxiety to seizure-like episodes and misdiagnosis), and what actually helped them move toward remission. They also explain why Lyme care is so difficult to manage day-to-day—and how Ella helps patients track symptoms, treatments (including pulsing protocols), and lifestyle factors, then turn that data into actionable insights and shareable reports to improve doctor visits.If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed trying to remember what changed, what helped, or what triggered a flare—this episode offers a new framework: reduce the burden of “managing Lyme” so you can focus on living again. From weekly insights to provider-ready summaries and a future vision for research breakthroughs driven by patient data (with patient privacy and ownership at the core), this conversation is packed with hope, clarity, and next-step tools.Key Topics CoveredThe Bradsky family’s “Lyme was a family affair” origin story—and how diagnosis finally happenedMedical gaslighting and dismissal: “It’s all in your head” and the toll it takes on familiesBeing a child/caregiver while a parent becomes bedridden: trauma, coping, and shifting family dynamicsCarter’s symptoms (brain fog, anxiety, dissociation) and the impact on athletics and college lifePayton’s seizure-like episodes, epilepsy misdiagnosis, loss of license, and eventual Lyme/Babesia/Bartonella diagnosisWhy Lyme recovery is rarely linear: flare patterns, stress effects, and measuring progress when memory is impairedIntegrative treatment approaches: herbals + antibiotics, detox support, probiotics, and pulsing protocolsThe “appointment gap” problem: forgetting symptoms, underreporting, and losing clinical time to catch-upHow Ella works: daily check-ins, trend detection, symptom/treatment tracking, and weekly insightsProvider-facing reporting (“warrior report”) and the long-term goal of precision medicine + research breakthroughs via opt-in anonymized data _______________________________The Karlfeldt Center offers the most cutting-edge and comprehensive Lyme therapies.
