RE: Re: Bacteria linked to MS

[Guest guest]

I am going to try to find Dr, Sriram and speak to him. I wrote the Tennessean newspaper and asked for their help in contacting him or the man who has MS in the article,Brad Lamons.

On Monday I will try Vanderbilt to try to track down the doctor.

Perhaps they didn't mention it to you Kim, because of it was only anecdotal at the time.Who knows? I went to the Mayo Clinic last March and when I got home there was an article that came out from there, saying NOT to get on the CRAB drugs immediately after a diagnosis of MS. The week before they told me I should be on a CRAB!Go figure.

Dr. Sriram is located in Nashville, TN - he is affiliated with

Vanderbilt University Medical Center, which is where my son was when

he originally became ill. We did not see Dr. Sriram, but we did see

one of his associates, and this was never mentioned to us once we had

the MS diagnosis, so I am wondering if this sort of died in the

water. If you will notice, the article is dated April of 1999, so

it's hardly new "news". My son was became ill in Sept. of 2001, so

they would have been very remiss at not ordering this testing on him

at Vanderbilt, don't you think? Very interesting with all the talk

about minocylcine, though! I've been reading about this particular

information for quite some time on other boards. This is not normal

testing that would be ordered on spinal fluid, and I've looked over

my son's results and do not see any results for chlamydia pneumonia.

Looks like our good old researchers dropped the ball again, as far as

I'm concerned.

Have a great weekend!

Saskia,

Thank you so much for the phone #'s. I called this am and spoke to a wonderful lady there who answered all my questions very patiently.Prof Sriram's study has ended and now Dr. Moses is starting a new one. She said the results of Prof Sriram's study were "promising". If anyone is interested, he is still accepting new enrollees. You must first get a spinal tap to see if you have the C pneumonia bacteria in your spinal fluid. You can participate in the study if you do. It is a double blind study, so some will get antibiotics and some won't.

As much as I hate the idea of getting another spinal tap(my first one was botched badly!), I think I may do this, with my history of pneumonia when I was a kid.

The lady I spoke to said the antibiotics were cheap, that one would be taking.

Thanks again for the phone #'s.

Here is an email address of a reporter for the Tennessean, who has MS

and has written an article about her struggles! She may help you find

Dr. Sriram.
