How Co-Infections Keep Chronic Illness Alive

In this episode of Rethink My Health Radio, Dr. Gez Agolli and Dr. Cheryl Burdette uncover one of the most overlooked reasons people remain chronically ill: co-infections.
If you’ve been treated for Lyme disease, mold exposure, viruses, or another chronic infection—but still don’t feel better—this episode explains why healing may have stalled. Dr. Agolli and Dr. Burdette break down how multiple infections can coexist in the body, overwhelm the immune system, and keep symptoms cycling even after treatment.
From stealth pathogens and immune suppression to inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and toxin burden, this conversation reveals why treating one infection is often not enough. You’ll learn how co-infections are missed in conventional care, which symptoms raise red flags, and how a functional, root-cause approach can finally bring clarity.
This episode is especially important for anyone struggling with chronic fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, autoimmune symptoms, or relapsing illness with no clear explanation.
In this episode:
-What co-infections are—and why they’re commonly missed
-Why antibiotics or antivirals may not fully resolve symptoms
-The connection between Lyme, mold, viruses, parasites & chronic illness
-How co-infections suppress the immune system
-Functional testing that uncovers hidden infections
-Why personalized, layered treatment is essential for recovery
If you’ve ever felt like something was missed—or that your body just won’t heal—this conversation may finally explain why.
