Cognitive issues following a stroke due to Lyme disease

A recent study examined the relationship between infectious agents and their impact on cognitive decline in older individuals. The authors concluded that exposure to certain viruses would, in fact, result in cognitive deterioration. Clinicians treating Lyme disease patients have expressed concern about cognitive problems developing from an infection with the Borrelia spirochete, as well. Numerous studies have documented cognitive issues in Lyme disease patients years after treatment.
