Read. Read. Read.

500mg TID for 3 weeks might help a LOT.

If the infected cells are resistant to dying (efflux pumps), the addition of Oregon Grape Root (which is a different form of berberine and contains an efflux pump inhibitor) MIGHT work in synergy.

Start with Wikipedia’s explanation of berberine and Oregon Grape Root, then accumulate all the “legit” abstracts (from edus). There are many.

It is amazing.

Until we have IV hypericin and Yellow laser therapy available (cutting edge, Germany. legit)…

ICHT (way too dangerous IMO electrolyte-wise) can CAUSE death. GcMAF not effective, photon therapy helps, but does not appear to cure, Rife therapy helps also. Non-stop abx. for years is NOT a good idea, IMO.

As with MANY diseases, mitochondrial dysfunction IS happening. The infected cells DO need to die – as with “chemo”, not too many too fast or sepsis will happen.

p8 that Bb picks up in the tick’s saliva plays a huge part.

Kyn-Tryptophan pathway in full swing (as it is in HIV and MS too).

If caught FAST, initially, Mino. is a better choice as 1st line, IMO.

Bb “recruits” friends…makes the body vulnerable to a slew of other pathogens.

Obviously, genetics plays a big part too…genetic predisposition (look closely at the “Ice Man”) + infection -> “autoimmune” or worse case…cancers.

While inflammation is a part of healing, *ongoing* inflammation is very harmful to US, but beneficial to many infections, sort of “pave the way” for invasion.

We need more researchers like you! Please investigate these links thoroughly, because we know that CDC and Infectious Disease Society of America (and of course the morally bankrupt insurance companies) are on the wrong side of history here. But we need hard science to back us up.

I hope you take all the work of the brilliant researchers who have been waging this war from behind their microscopes (Alan McDonald – we love you!) and fight alongside all the people with Lyme, Alzheimers, ALS, Parkinsons, MS, Fibromyalgia and other debilitating conditions.

We are all in this together, and you have our support, love and gratitude.

I’m 53 years old and can’t do stairs. In the last 8 months I’ve gone from playing volleyball twice a week, being active to not being able to participate. I used to walk at a fast pace, now I hobble (not on purpose) down the hallway. I’m very unsteady on my feet and desperately scared of falling. My arms and legs are weak and very painful, I’m afraid I couldn’t get up. Some days I have high inflammation days very painful to walk, sit or do anything, some days are tolerable. NIGHT TIME IS UNBEARABLY PAINFUL, I’m in excrusating pain. it feels like pain in my bones, like my bones are breaking. I have muscular pain, nerve pain and I think my tendons are affected. I’ve been on antibiotics for more than 8 weeks on doxy and 6 weeks on minocycline with no changes. my thyroid and adrenal glands have been affected. I now have something called Polymyalgia Rheumatica (automimune disease) I’ve tried chinese herbs from a lyme doctor, i’ve taken them for more than 8 weeks with no results. I’m taking vicodin and muscle relaxers just to take the edge off to sleep. IN NO WAY, do these stop the pain…but, make it tolerable for sleeping a couple hours at a time. I’ve gone to an ENDOCRINLOGIST who said she knows nothing about LYME . I’ve tried PHOTON THERAPY, BIOFEEDBACK with no change. I’ve found more people willing to say they can help if I pay them…then find out no change afterwards. I find it interesting that in 2013…no one in the medical field has a way to fix this.

There is a desperate need for LLMD neurologists. In fact there are only half a dozen at most in the entire U.S. and even those really mostly specialize in lyme and know little about the coinfections. As you know from your research of the medical literature there are very few medical journal articles describing patients with even 2 tickborne infections and few if any describing patients with 3 or more tickborne infections — but these are the patients with the most severe neurological symptoms that the average neurologist can’t relate to and they frequently end up being sent to psychiatrists instead of LLMD’s.

Good luck with your future studies.

I am a Chronic Lyme Sufferer and have also wondered about these and other diseases which at times I share some of their symtoms. Please excuse my spelling and grammer, Lyme has cause many more problem than pain for me. Getting my thoughts from brain to paper is a daughting task.

I also I feel there are links to many more “Unknown caused diseases” like MS, ALS, Fibermialgia, Lupis, many nerological problems like depression, bipolar, and a host of others beyond your list.

Had the people studing Lyme disease taken your systematic and unbiased approach, things might have been much different for Lyme sufferes and the other “so-called unknown caused diseases ” as well.

Many now, will not waste their time and health on anybody other than a Lyme Literate Medical Doctor (LLMD).

I am not going to elaborate on the obvious reasons why so many within the medical fraternity, etc, deny, ignore or just downright obstruct any beneficial research or information on these wide spread stealth infections/Vector-borne diseases coming to fruition and/or being disseminated, but as you know, this information is available for those who genuinely want to get to the cause and core of their patients suffering.

In time, those who are not literate in the area of Vector-borne disease/Borrelia and co-infections, will become redundant, word is spreading quickly, as so many are infected now and they have been horrendously maltreated and misdiagnosed and are forced to research, diagnose and treat themselves and/or their children, those who are lucky enough to discover the truth, turn to an LLMD and usually get major beneficial outcomes in their health for the first time in years/decades of progressively getting worse and after continually being diagnosed with further ongoing “unknown caused” conditions.

But in the meantime (the dark side) the denialist’s of the true cause are doing everything they can in an attempt to discredit LLMDs, leaders in medicine, true healers, those versed in Vector-borne disease, just as mainstream medicine have done to so many alternative true healers all along.

Anyone who threatens their rein is in the line of fire, no matter how many are unnecessarily suffering and dying of these wide spread infections.

Sarah, there are so many, including children, suffering horrendous painful, debilitating conditions caused by these Infections being allowed to spread and Spirochetes being allowed to multiply within sufferers, that otherwise could have been avoided with correct and adequate treatment in the early stages.

Only those who are conscientious, who genuinely put the patients well being before themselves and their earnings, those with their head and heart in the right place, like yourself, can call themselves healers and can hold their head high with pride in saying so.

All the very best to you Sarah, don’t let the dark side bring you down.

If you are not already, become a member or look into (ILADS) International Lyme and Associated Disease Society for the most accurate information, these are the true experts/ healers and they and their members will be remembered as the saviours of this planet.

Also a tip, if you ask your patients either in the medical history forms they will fill out before seeing you and/or verbally, whether they remember an experience with birds just prior to the onset of Lyme symptoms, such as a nesting at their home or workplace, etc, perhaps getting bitten in an infested mattress, below these nestings, or rescuing a wild or sick bird, their cat bringing a bird into the house, etc, etc.

You will be inundated with yes answers, not always immediately, because of outdated and misinformation/myths that are continually being disseminated about how Lyme is contracted, most do not link something so common to their progressively worsening health, but after your patient has had a bit of time to reflect on this and becomes aware of the link, most if not all, who do not remember a specific tick bite, will recall an incident, usually unpleasant with birds, just prior to becoming sick.

This will enable you to diagnose and treat a broader range of Lyme sufferers, rather than the questions that are usually asked, such as, have you been in the vicinity of Deer or seen a blood engorged tick attached to you for days.

As you are probably aware, most don’t remember a tick bite and/or a rash, or seeing a Deer, this is because they more than likely got it from birds, this explains why it is so wide spread and easy to catch now.

Ruling out Lyme for those who answer no to the questions about Deer and ticks only narrows down the true extent of this plague and misses so many who are suffering Lyme.

Due to Deer culling, deforestation, denial, changes in the environment, mismanagement of the disease, etc , ground foraging birds have become competent reservoirs and the ultimate hosts of Borrelia and co-infections and are the most efficient, wide spread carriers of not only these infections but a multitude of the disease Vectors, such as lice, mites, fleas and all stages of ticks.

We now live amongst minefields of microscopic pathogen filled syringes, especially when we are around colonies and/or nestings of birds.

Once the paramount role birds play in the spread of Borrelia and co-infections, becomes common knowledge, so much suffering and so many infections and chronic illness will be avoided, as people will understand that Lyme is not rare, hard to catch, easy to treat or confined to bush walkers, enabling them to educate themselves on how to minimise the risk for them and their family contracting these infections and/or of letting it become so systemic that it causes them chronic illness.
