Not a rabbit hole per-se, but I've found at least three accounts of different people suffering some kind of dementia. One of them in particular was actively deteriorating and was paranoid that she was suffering Lyme disease. She wasn't; she was losing her mind and it was obvious from her post history. So sad.
