Not sure if true or not but I hear thru a friend who heard thru a

doctor that some GW Vets are using LDN for their GW Syndrome and some

with success so it's well worth a try. No guaratees but certainly

worth a try.

I have often wondered what the cause of Gulf War Syndrome is. Most of

the studies seem to be pointing fingers at pesticides such as the flea

collars soldiers wore. The last study that made it into the popular

press was insecticides PLUS nerve gas.

I read a link to an article from a Lyme health page. This guy was

writing about low molecular weight chemicals trapped in our bodies.

Allegedly our bodies can not remove these small molecules and we get

sick. That caught me eye as I had unknowingly lived on top of an old

landfill when I got sick.

A colleagues father, who was a welder, was involved in a welding shop

fire. The father became quite ill, lost a lot of weight, lost his

strength, and then died. The Mayo clinic had diagnosed the father

with " Toxic Neuropathy " . Anyway, the only treatment that helped the

guy was dialysis. Unfortunately, this was tried very close to the time

of his death.

To tie this post back to LDN, for whatever illness I have, the LDN did

not seem to help. I've assumed that might be pointing to the wrong

disease being treated. That and $1.00 will get a cup of coffee.

Get yourself tested by a Bradford Variable Projection Microscope. It

will check your viral, fungal, heavy metal and mold loads and can

detect lyme and a few other things.

Where do we find a a Bradford Variable Projection Microscope? Where

do we find someone that can make sense of the data?

I am now 13 days into a doxycycline prescription for potential Lyme

type things. Sometimes the Lyme world can be rather clandestine too.

I was able to find an allegedly very competent Lyme Literate Medical

Doctor (LLMD) in the lower 48 states. It was a 3-month wait to see

this person.

The Lyme tests, from Fry Laboratories and IgeneX, were both

inconclusive. The doxycycline was prescribed based on a thorough

medical history and a hands-on physical exam.

Once I recover financially from switching treatments and an automobile

wreck where some loser-idiot totaled car, I can pursue the Bradford

Variable Projection Microscope analysis.
