CDC Asks Public to Help on Swine Flu Vaccine Call!!!

URGENT READ – You can help save the pending Swine Flu vaccine fiasco with your input. Please read and note it may not be too late to change things.

Beginning in August, the federal health agency is holding day-long public meetings at 10 sites in the nation. About 1,000 citizens will take part in the intensive meetings. Registration is open to everyone. (http://www.keystone.org/H1N1)

Biofilms and Lyme Disease

Summation: Biofilms of Borrelia Burgdorferi by Alan B. MacDonald, MD, May 17, 2008
1)  Biofilms of Borrelia are indispensable elements for species survival in hostile environments.
2)  Biofilms of borrelia provide protection to the microbes which live inside of the matrix.
3)  DNA of Borrelia (externalized) constitutes a portion of the borrelia biofilm matrix.
4)  Exchange of genomic material occurs between the borrelia in the biofilm.
5)  Morphologic diversity of borrelia within biofilms (cyst, granular, L form, and spiral forms) is
evident.
Biofilms has become one of the hottest topics within the Lyme communities. Doctors from all parts of the world are focusing on biofilms and how it effects treatments of chronically ill patients, as well as Lyme patients.  Pathogens and toxins we are carrying in our bodies prevent us from beginning the dissolving process.  We must begin a process to help dissolve these pathogens and toxins that are helping to keep the biofilms in place.
I have been using several things to break down the biofilms, which are residing in my body. Continued

Unraveling How to Best Treat the Disease

“The focus of the hearing is science and that’s what Dr. Eugene Shapiro, a Yale pediatrician who served on previous IDSA guidelines panels, plans to talk about. Many patients who have received diagnoses of chronic Lyme disease do not even have the condition, Shapiro says. And the ongoing symptoms they struggle with are simply unexplained and unrelated.”

Unraveling How to Best Treat the Disease – Newsweek – By Claudia Kalb :::::

It is sad to say the least that doctors from Yale, like Dr Shapiro, have not been able to look beyond his findings, and instead of saying “unexplained and unrelated”, he would look further in “our toxic world”. It is hard for me to understand how doctors with his training have not written about the over burden of pathogens and toxins that are slamming our bodies on a daily basis, not just from our environment, but from our foods, drinks and conventional medicines that are given to these very sick people as a “band-aid” ????

Neuropsychiatric Lyme Disease Online Resources

While I have the utmost respect for Dr Robert Bransfield, I can’t help but ask the question, “how much of the psychiatric symptoms and aggressiveness could be avoided IF we were to reduce the pathogen and toxin level, especially in those of us exposed to chemicals??

What do we do to reduce those pathogens and toxins? Continued

Welcome to my new blog.

Hello to all and welcome to my new blog.  I want to share what worked for me in my healing and detox journey.

I only wish I knew then what I know now through the first Lyme infection.   Detoxing is not just cleaning the terrain.  When I first began my detox journey I spent a lot of time in the bathroom, BUT it was worth it.

I don’t need no scientific evidence to tell me what works.  I’m not trying to prove anything to those who are interested.  I encourage people to prove to ME what I am doing does not work.

When I first began the protocl I’m on now, I had no idea my body would go through as many changes it has.  My skin and hair have changed.  My mind is more clear and we all know that Lymies have problems with “brain fog”…..

Diet is key in reducing pathogens and toxins.  It took me a long time before I got it through my head that “gluten” was not good for me.  Then to make it worse I didn’t pay attention to the deadly effects of GMO foods….

I hope to open up discussion here and share my personal experiences during my healing and detox journey….

Please do not hesitate to ask questions…..

Vaccines and Therapies for Vaccine Damage

I am participating in the Medical Doctors Vaccine Webinar Series this Wednesday evening, 7/22/09, 8:00 PM – 9:00 PM CDT with Mayer Eisenstein, MD, JD.  I will be speaking with him about vaccines and therapies for vaccine damage.

Sign up link is:

This is just one in an on-going series, that takes place on Monday and Wednesday evenings, and is co-produced by two great people:

Nick Haas, whom you will all one day thank, as a concerned parent who is making this lifesaving information about the dangers of vaccination available to the public.

Mayer Eisenstein, MD, JD, who practices in Chicago and is a prolific writer, outstanding physician and freedom fighter.

This vaccine issue is particularly pertinent now with the Swine Flu scare and the possibility of mandatory vaccinations in many countries. Continued

We Are All ‘Living In A Sea Of Toxins’

Mark Hyman MD has done an excellent job at the 13th Annual Functional Medicine Conference of organizing thoughts about the EFFECTS of environmental and exogenous chemicals on our health, and why blood testing underestimates the extent of the problem.

I draw your attention to a few paragraphs from his extensive presentation, which discusses some of the impact of chemicals and toxins on our health.

LIVING IN A SEA OF TOXINS: THE PROBLEM

Why should we worry about toxins unless we work with toxic chemicals or spray pesticides for a living? Isn’t exposure minimal? Unfortunately, risks of exposure are substantial, pose significant public health risks, and can no longer be ignored. Continued
