Jeff, I'll give you what I know... but there are many very informed folks on this list, so I look forward to other answers and info.the cystic form is when the bacteria covers itself with a non-bacteria-like shell. within this 'shell' it can reproduce via transverse fission. This shell, because it doesn't have the markers that your immune system recognizes, can hide from your body's defenses. Also, because the shell structure is not reproducing ( the spiros are reproducing within, but the shell itself is not splitting and multiplying), it is not vulnerable to antibiotics. Antibiotics work by disrupting the formation of the cell wall during reproduction, causing the cell to break apart during formation. I think that the only medications known to be specifically effective against the cystic form of Bb are anti-parasitics. lab studies done by PhDs show them effective, but the MDs

are not sanguine about using them because they are often so dangerous. that is a general overview, i don't know about specific current studies in vivo.

I’ve probably read this somewhere already but can someone please explain the cyst thing to me? Is there a way to tell when the spirochetes form cysts and is that how the disease will sometimes stay dormant for extended periods of time? If I’ve been using my fir sauna and have now experienced less sweating than previously could this be a sign that this is what is happening now and would that be the reason for my increase in energy?

Thanks,

Jeff
