Cerebrospinal fluid in adults with Lyme

Excerpt:

In acute LNB, all
patients had elevated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leukocyte counts. In
contrast to infections by other bacteria, CSF lactate was lower than 3.5
mmol/l in all but 5 patients. The CSF findings did not differ between
polyradiculoneuritis, facial palsy, and meningitis. The CSF in LNB
patients strongly differed from CSF in VM patients with respect to
protein concentration and the CSF/serum albumin quotient.

Monsanto plans to unleash its latest Frankenfood experiment

Linda’s comments:  THIS is criminal in my book.  Do they think we have stupid stamped on our foreheads?  We can stop this or at least make enough noise that Monsanto will think twice.  The main thing we can do is JUST SAY NO TO GMO and DO NOT PURCHASE THESE DEADLY FOODS.  The consumers are in control and need to take a stand.  We need to put our feet down and stand against these companies that have NO regard for our health and safety.  Cancers and autoimmune diseases are on the rise.  You can bet that GMO foods are part of the problem.  Think of your children and grand-children.  Don’t you want them to lead a healthy life and live to teach their grand-children??  How many more lives have to be lost to these DEADLY foods?  Stop and think about this, when your past presidents would not allow the GMO foods to be served to their families how can they allow Monsanto to continue??  Follow the money!!!

Lyme Encephalopathy

Encephalopathy is like fine art: Most people know it when they see it, but there is very little agreement on how to define it. At the 14th International Lyme Disease Conference, Brian A. Fallon, MD,[1] of Columbia University and the New York State Psychiatric Institute, New York, NY, tried to do just that. More importantly, he described the different ways one can define encephalopathy, the strengths and limitations of each approach, and significantly, what other aspects of life can give the impression of encephalopathy where none exists. First, one must evaluate patients with persistent Lyme encephalopathy by asking the following questions:

Is the diagnosis correct?
Are there comorbid psychiatric disorders that could be treated better? Does the patient have a psychogenic medical illness? What was the patient’s response to prior antibiotics?
Was previous treatment adequate? How long was the course, and what was the route of administration? Was there a subsequent relapse Continued

Lyme Disease: Arthritis by Infection

Linda’s Comment:  It amazes me that in the following publications do we find any suggestions about reducing our total body burden of pathogens and toxins.  It is a MUST that Lymies begin to reduce their total body burden of pathogens and toxins in order to begin addressing Lyme, Lyme Arthritis, Arthritis, and other chronic illness we see with Lyme patients.  Some people choose antibiotics…..I personally never went near antibiotics.  My whole detox and healing program was using anti-microbials, alternative medicine, alternative modalities, NO GMO foods, NO sugars, NO fast foods, NO soda’s, NO caffeine, NO coffee and I ate and still do eat organic foods.  I also have used a PhotonGenie since 2001 and use it daily.  I like it better than Rife, as I don’t have to worry about settings, I just turn it on and go.  I even sleep in mine.  The critters we Lymies fight LOVE heavy metals and especially GMO foods.  
 
There are also some foods that you don’t want to eat if you are having symptoms of Arthritis, however, it is more important to get rid of the GMO, sugars, coffee and soda’s to reduce the inflammation and pain.  The great thing about the fight program is you are dissolving biofilms and reducing inflammation on a daily basis.  So much of our pain comes from inflammation. 
 
I of course use many more things with my lifelong daily detox protocol.  If you can get IV chelation and do weekly colonics you can move things along faster.  However, you can start the program one step at a time and move at your own pace.  This is one protocol that must be done as suggested to get the full benefit of wellness.  The first three months are your toughest, but after that it is a breeze.  Yes, ever so often you have a day or two like you did when you first started, but I tell folks, it is like peeling an onion.  As you reach a new level you will have a couple of days where you keep your bathroom close.  At the end of 60 to 90 days and you begin to feel your life coming back to you, you will be very pleased that you began this journey.  Feel free to ask questions and I will share my journey with you.  Just remember JUST SAY NO TO GMO!!

On the Trail of a Vaccine for Lyme Disease

On the Trail of a Vaccine for Lyme Disease: Yale Researchers Target Tick Saliva
Published: November 18, 2009

New Haven, Conn. — A protein found in the saliva of ticks helps protect mice from developing Lyme disease, Yale researchers have discovered. The findings, published in the November 19 issue of Cell Host & Microbe, may spur development of a new vaccine against infection from Lyme disease, which is spread through tick bites. Continued
