Guest guest Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 Hi - I'm not a doctor, so I'm learning as I go here - the bacteria like lipids and so they attack the fatty myelin sheath around neurons. I also learned that cholesterol, lecithin and fatty acids, plus proteins, make up the myelin sheath, and that magnesium is needed for the production of the first three. So that's another Lyme angle, since magnesium gets depleted in Lyme disease. I know that people do VitB12 for nerve repair. Many have also had stem cell injections, which stopped their MS symptoms. There may be other treatments too - as I said, I'm not a doctor, so have to research, like any of us here, about what people are trying for repair efforts. Yes, Lyme is complicated and needs to be studied for what it is, how it operates in the body, how the body responds, and what people are doing. I call it going to Lyme school. Yes, looks like gov'ts worldwide messed with the spirochete. I think it's been going on for a 100 years, starting with the Japanese, then US, Russia, Germany, and two more countries I read - forget which ones. Plum Island off the tip of Long Island was centrally involved here. Some think they mixed brucellosis, visna virus and mycoplasma - it's a theory, with patents. We have to stay positive and choose to learn and then plan how to deal with it. I had a miraculous recovery in one week's time from fibro and joint swelling when I started the clindamycin. I also treated many other symptoms along the way when I didn't know I had Lyme. In that way, I'm like you all in that I didn't know what was going on and so threw things at my body. Some of them worked. But now I know why - it's the complicated biology of the interplay between the spirochetal bacteria and the body. - Robin Fibromyalgia and Multiple Sclerosis > > > > > > Hello, My name is Sharon and I'm wondering if anybody has Fibromyalgia and Multiple Sclerosis? I have both couples with Post Polo Syndrome and all the pain symptoms are the same. Can anybody relate to this? > > > > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
