Lyme Question

[Guest guest]

Dagmar-

Here is what I posted earlier about MS, which I suffer from.

" ILADS has reported that up to 50% of MS, Parkinson's, ALS, etc... are actually

misdiagnosed and have aggressive strains of Lyme. The fact that researchers in

these different illnesses are currently researching with antibiotics is telling,

to me anyway. If you do a google search you should be able to see the Vanderbilt

University research with antibiotics and MS. They are having a lot of success

with it. There are a group of researchers that believe that MS is a complex

infection. Sound familiar? My MS symptoms are almost in remission because of my

treatment for Lyme and Mycoplasma infections.

It will be interesting to keep up with the MS research and finally get an

answer. "

They may very well be one in the same or it is just another complex infection.

Take care-

PS-

s Hopkins is working with a Lyme doc to treat ALS patients with antibiotics.

Welcome. Are you sure you have MS? Lyme is so often misdiagnosed as MS

since it has the same symptoms. The only difference is that if you can get the

Lyme treated the symptoms of MS go away. I hope you only have Lyme. Sorry

about the husband being away. You could really use the support now. We are

here to talk, but I suppose that is not the same as having your spouse home.

As for the heat looking like rash. Lyme germs can get in your skin close to

the surface and literally make you skin thinner. Heat is supposed to kill

them there. Try the hottest soaks you can stand and some soothing

hypoallergenic lotions. Hope that helps.

Take care.

I was reading the posts about Lyme and Mold. Recently my Lyme IGM is

coming up positive, although I had no tick bite (only ever a wasp sting

during all these crazy symptoms). My IGG's are all negative.

I was just wondering what everyone else's Lyme Western Blot showed. I

had 41KD and 23KD positive, but nothing else. What bands did everyone

else have positive? I really don't want to take antibiotics

again.........took Doxy for about 3 weeks at one point, but the yeast

kicks my butt worse than anything becuase I'm so overrun with it anyway

from all the treatment attempts.

Interesting though how so many have a positive Lyme test that have been

exposed to mold.

Thanks
