Zapping brain fog: new study tests tDCS for Lyme-Related cognitive issues

NCT ID NCT06915324

First seen May 06, 2026 · Last updated May 06, 2026

Summary

This study tests a new approach to treat brain fog in people with post-treatment Lyme disease. Over 4 weeks, 110 participants will play computer-based cognitive training games at home while receiving either real or fake transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), a gentle brain stimulation technique. The goal is to see if the combination can improve processing speed and whether any benefits last for 8 weeks after treatment ends.
