Hi all, thanks for all your prayers and encouragement; after the initial

shock, I guess I have time to really do some research and listen to other's

stories. It's just that I was so stunned, thinking it was just a " retake " ,

that I was thrown for a loop....nothing comes easy in my family and I don't

have time for this......I've got enough going on with all of 's

appointments! I don't have time to be sick.

Usually from what I've been hearing, the cysts are benign and nothing further

is done unless you complain of severe pain, in which case they can drain the

liquid ones and remove the solid ones. I would not want anything done

surgically, as nothing hurts me......I've always believed if it ain't broke,

don't fix it, why start messing around?

Being a control freak, I hate the wait, but here I go....again......

Becky,

I'm so sorry (and you) are going through this! Is she feeling any

better?

Which BC did they put her on? If it happens to be one of Chris' products,

he is a Rep for Ortho and can make sure her doc is well-stocked with samples

if she is in his territory.

Keep us posted!

and Kelsey - (9 going on 19!)

zinc something.I've heard how people get rid of lumps in breasts, just wondered if it would work the same. Going to try it anyway.

It's worth a try. Iodine is anti microbial and bacterial so I would think

it would. It won't hurt.

Dr. Derry said that Lugol's Solution would work on sebaceous cysts, among

other kinds. The one kind he said it wouldn't work on were ganglion cysts,

and he considered that because of where they were and how hard it was to

deliver it to the right spot. He said they tend to break up, but not

dissolve completely.

Skipper,

I have a sabaceous cyst I'd like to try this on. Do you know if there is any special way to apply it? Would I just paint it on? If so, how often?

Thank you.

Just put a couple drops on the cyst, and rub it in. Usually, it's on the

head and you have to be sure to find a way through the hair. I have one,

and I start to get rid of it, but then forget, after it goes down abit.

So like once a day? Or would twice be better?

If I could remember I'd do it twice a day. Eventually, you might feel it

burning though. I just work my way through that.

I don't mean to butt in here; but I have one of these on my scalp the

size of a large pea, and will certainly try this! I almost had my Derm

take it off, but backed out. Also have another tiny one just starting

up. Luckily I have dark hair!

Sally, it is my understanding that the spirochetes convert into cysts

whenever they sense a hostile environment of any kind. Then,

conventional Lyme medicine says that the only thing that kills the cysts

is Flagyl or Tindamax (Tinidazole).

Surely others know much more than I and will post as well. ~Muriel

[ ] cysts

I read that some antibiotics (in particular penicillins) can encourage

the bacteria to convert into cysts. Is this true? Then what other

conditions contribute (unfavorable environments) to conversion into

cysts? Thank you... Sally

Hi Sally,

I can't remember if anyone's mentioned this recently, but

Rosner's books (Lyme Disease and Rife Machines, and The Top 10 Lyme

Disease Treatments) have a good, easy-to-read explanation of what

sends Lyme into cyst form and what doesn't. You can find them at

lymebooks.com. The books are full of great information and WELL worth

owning if you have Lyme.

Thank you for your answers. I have ordered the one book (10 treatments) and will

see what it says. I am specifically wondering (1) what antibiotics would send it

into cyst form (thinking thats a bad thing) (2) what other hostile environments

send it into cyst form.

Wondering if these women I have met who have had not treatemtent abx or

alternative med would have dormant lyme in cyst form or what? (one who suffered

for 15 years and the other who has had no symptoms for 5 years since tick bite

and rash) Or if they cleared it... if it's not actively swimming around, then

it's hiding in what form? And what makes it go there? Does it automatically go

into cyst form as part of its life cycle? When it gets into tissues and white

blood cells, is it in cyst form or just hiding out as a spirocyte doing damage

they are not aware of or doing no damage while hiding out in spirocyte form?

I'm thinking cyst form is more dangerous, but maybe I'm wrong... Maybe it's just

another form that has to be addressed and is not always addressed... then... how

do alternative treatments address cysts? They can't stay in that form forever,

so they are addressed when they come out? Are some saying that alternative

measures do not actually kill the spirocyte, just mask the symptoms?

Then do antibiotics drive the spirocyte into a harder to treat cyst form?

Thank you... Sally

Sally-

If you read the material regarding the microbiology I sent you, you will get

accurate answers to your questions that you have posed for the last week. It is

very dangerous to take the word of amateur scientists. When I was first learning

about this mess it was very frustrating because I kept getting conflicting

answers from sufferers. I decided to learn the microbiology as much as I could

comprehend by reading. I then wrote down all my questions and then I called the

researchers myself.

Take care-

From what I understand, the cyst form is not where you want the

spirochetes to go-- for one thing, they multiply in that form and

can't be reached by by antibiotics or other methods, let alone a

compromised immune system.

Most, if not all, antibiotics drive the spirochete into cyst form at

some point and even alternative methods can as well if not used

properly. Yes, those methods do kill spirochetes, but if used for too

long at one time, will send what's not killed into cyst form where

they can't be reached. That's the form the spirochetes use to

preserve themselves, and they will stay in that form as long as there

is a threat to their well-being. When the threat is gone (when abx

are stopped for long enough, or whatever it was that sent them there)

they will then break open and wreak havoc again. This is what causes

Lyme relapses.

This is a very inadequate explanation of things (it's too detailed to

go into without writing a book :)), but a taste of the interesting

things you'll find if you keep researching and reading. It's

fascinating. I personally found the answers to these questions in

's books, so am glad you're getting at least one of them. If you

can get your hands on his first book, I'd definitely get that one as

well. It's not one to skip. You do not have to do Rife to get a lot

out of it. I've also heard that Buhner's book Healing Lyme

has a good explanation of the disease and how it works. I haven't

read it yet myself, though.

also talks about ways to draw the cyst form out, which is a

great thing to know.

Ultimately, the only thing that can completely kill off a case of Lyme

Disease is your own immune system. Some folks who get bit by a Lyme

tick don't get the disease or the nasty co-infections-- why? Their

immune systems recognize the bad pathogen and destroy right away.

Getting the immune system back into shape, back to recognizing the bad

pathogen and killing it all, is the only thing I know of that can beat

this disease completely.

Hope this helps some.

Take care :)

Becky

P.S. If I've missed something or written something wrongly here, I

hope someone else who has read 's books feels free to correct me.

P.S.S. Thanks for posting 's new link! I see I got the

one I posted wrong anyway... it's: lymebook.com. Sorry about that.

Hi Sally :)

Some alternatives that kill Lyme pathogen(s) don't create a

threatening environment. Our antibodies don't either. I think that's

what you're asking anyway? :)

Hi Sally :)

Some alternatives that kill Lyme pathogen(s) don't create a

threatening environment. Our antibodies don't either. I think that's

what you're asking anyway? :)

> Thanks, Becky. I'll order that other book. I also have access to a

rife machine that my sister owns. I was wondering if antibiotics

created a hostile environment, then would alternatives that attack?

the bacteria... would our antibodies, themselves? I'm on antbiotics

because that is all I know to do right not and because I have felt

safer on them than off. I am not convinced on way or the other... tend

to be inclined to integrated... I am an OD who specializes in Chinese

meds and herbals as well as a LLMD (finally figured that one out).

Yes, I know people disagree on whether the cyst form can replicate...
