Opinions on rife

[Guest guest]

Evening all,

I was hoping you might be able to help me with a few queries.

The background:

I was diagnosed with Lyme, Bartonella and Chlamydia pneumoniae last November, it

being likely that I contracted one or all in late 2009. Needless to say I'm

suffering and the lyme has gone chronic - my CD57 is 27.

I am currently on a second round of abx. So far I have done 3 months of doxy

alone and now i'm mid way through 3 months of amoxi, azithro and tini.

Whilst I have improved somewhat, I havent improved nearly as much as I had

hoped. For this reason and because I'm not particularly overawed by the prospect

of taking abx forever and a day I'm investigating alternatives.

I am already working with a herbalist who is out of the Buhner school.

I have to opportunity to work with someone using a Doug Coil machine.

What I would like to know is:

1) Is the use of the coil machine with abx completely contraindicated. I

understand that the theory is abx force Bb into its cyst form which is not

accessible by most abx and rife, and additionally that this can serve to

compound the problem as Bb has the capability to multiply on exiting the cyst

form. That said I am uncomfortable abandoning the abx at present, understand

that tinidazole is active against cysts, and would like to attack the bacteria

from as many angles as possible.

2) How effective is the coil machine against a) Bartonella and Chlamydia

pneumoniae. Would it be a viable approach to, for example, continue to treat Bb

with my triple abx combination whilst target the coinfections with rife? I am

particularly interested in this as my LLMD wishes to treat Bb with abx first,

whilst I attribute many of my overwhelming symptoms to coinfections.

3)If abx push the lyme into an inaccessible cyst form why do herbs not have the

same effect? Is this true and in this case is the use of the DC with Buhner/

cowden/ Byron White herbs viable?

I appreciate responses are opnions and do not represent medical advice

Many thanks for your input,

Hugh
