Trista Sutter Offers Update on Ryan’s ‘Scary’ Lyme Disease Battle

Trista Sutter offered an update on her husband Ryan Sutter’s ongoing battle with Lyme disease.

“He definitely has a lot of ups and downs still and really would like to feel better at least most of the time. He says he’s about 80 percent,” she said. “I would go to his doctor’s appointments with him because he is so incredibly humble. So he’s like, ‘Oh, I don’t want to complain about whatever’s going on with me,’ even if it’s really significant.”

Lyme disease is an illness transmitted through the bite of an infected black-legged tick, with early-stage symptoms including flu-like symptoms, joint pain, fatigue or a bullseye-shaped rash around the area of the bite, per Mayo Clinic. In its later stages, symptoms of Lyme have been known to include paralysis, agonizing joint pain and headaches, neurological problems, as well as inflammation of the brain and heart, among other symptoms.
