I have read about both sides of the vaccine debate. I have looked closely at research and listened to every documentary there is on this subject. These are the articles and documentaries that helped me make up my mind on where I stand on this matter.<br />

Health tip of the day: This is the second tip in a series on understanding what it really takes to get the quality of life back that was lost due to infections, such as Lyme disease. So much has been written by doctors and researchers about how to kill bacteria and dissolve biofilms.<br />
<br />
It has been ingrained into our core beliefs that in Lyme Disease and other chronic infections that a person will <span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;">not get well until all the bacteria are killed. This is a myth in medicine.<br /><br />I guarantee that even if you could be irradiated, like a hunk of meat, and kill every single Lyme bacteria instantly, you would still have most if not all of your symptoms for a long time, if that was all you did. Health is not the absence of bacteria. It is the restoration of optimum coherence on every level of human existence.<br /><br />While bringing down the bacterial population is desirable, the reality is that you will be well when the structural integrity and function integrity of the entire human organism has be restored.<br /><br />So many people are dutifully taking their antibiotics, either prescription or botanticals, and running frequencies to kill various bacteria, and have been doing so for years wondering why they are not feeling any better.<br /><br />For those of you who are doing a very much comprehensive approach and are still not getting well, that just means that either your doctors are missing some key issue, or time is what is needed for the body's tissues to heal.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">I ask that you consider every infection you have ever had. Generally, you might have taken an antibiotic for a short time, or just waited, and your body got over it. All of the bacteria and viruses were not completely killed, yet your body was able to control them and restore the balance.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Following are examples of various doctors who have achieved lasting health restoration in many people previously diagnosed with LD by identifying the primary areas of interference. </span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">It must be understood that optimum health is the point at which the body, mind, and spirit can adapt instantly and correctly to any changes in their internal and external environment. Loss of this adaptability arises prior to the occurrence of what is known as LD. </span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Every aspect of the human condition must be explored, identified, and corrected at its source before lasting health can restored. </span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Latent or recent infection with Lyme bacteria leading to the eventual diagnosis of LD, in each case, is secondary to the underlying interferences from either inherited or acquired disturbances to adaption.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Dr. Osvaldo Font, M.D. in Puerto Rico, who was recently nominated for the Nobel Prize in Medicine for his development of Electro-Neuro-Medullar Therapy, has identified an electrical resistance or blockage in the spinal cord, which causes a short-circuit in the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. Once this accumulated energy is discharged and the current is restored, the neurological symptoms and pain fall away. It has been reported that Dr. Font’s treatments have facilitated almost 500 people to be able to get out of their wheelchairs, many of whom were previously thought to be suffering from chronic Lyme disease.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">The point here is to show that once the diagnosis is made of Lyme disease, 99% of doctors focus their primary efforts toward annihilating the bacteria and coinfections, and all of the other treatments revolve around that primary focus. </span><br />

FONAR Corporation (NASDAQ-FONR), The Inventor of MR Scanning™, reported
today the cessation of symptoms in a 41-year-old female patient with
multiple sclerosis following noninvasive treatment. The treatment was
based on a recent major diagnostic breakthrough about the cause of
multiple sclerosis achieved with the advanced FONAR UPRIGHT® MRI.<br />
Misaligned cervical vertebrae in the patient (specifically, the
vertebrae in the neck known as C-1, C-2, and C3) were causing blockage
of the flow of cerebrospinal fluid. The malrotations of these vertebrae
were initially discovered and visualized by the FONAR UPRIGHT® MRI,
which showed that the vertebrae were rotated 5-6 degrees from their
normal alignment.<br />
When the vertebrae were successfully realigned,
the patient’s symptoms subsided. The realignment was achieved by Dr.
Scott Rosa, (Rock Hill, NY), using the noninvasive Atlas Orthogonal (AO)
instrument, a device that can be used to tap the vertebrae back into
normal alignment.<br />
The patient is currently being maintained free of
her MS symptoms, (vertigo and vomiting on recumbency) when recumbent,
by weekly treatment with the AO instrument.<br />
In the original study
on which the diagnostic breakthrough was based, the Upright MRI further
revealed that the cervical misalignments in the patient resulted in
impairment of the flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) on the posterior
side of the spinal cord at the cervical joint between C-2 and C-3. When
obstructed, the 500 cc of CSF generated daily within the ventricles of
the brain cannot exit the ventricle and circulate normally down the
spinal canal and return to the brain. The resulting buildup of CSF
pressure gives rise to leakages of CSF fluid into the brain tissue<br />

<b>Diagnosis ~ Lyme Disease</b><br />
<br />
When I first heard that my 2 year old son had lyme disease I had no idea
our journey would take us 14 years back to me.. I had spent years and
years back and forth to doctors. I had enough anti depressants thrown at
me to open my own pharmacy. The looks and sighs from office staff as I
came back over and over. The thoughts even crossed my mind. Am I going
nuts? Is this in my head? I was diagnosed with polycystic ovarian
syndrome, Celiac disease, hashimotos thyroid, heart disease, borderline lupus.<br /><br />I was told I would never have children by several " specialists" funny
how I view those same specialists now. I met my husband 16 years ago, a
very different woman than I am today.<br />
<br />
My story seems to mimic many lyme stories.. All of us searching , all of
us scared and unsure.. All of us not taken seriously.. Infact the
doctor who diagnosed my lyme told me it was not lyme, it again was lupus.. I have a cdc positive test and still dismissed.. My doctor refused to take my calls after that day..<br />
<b><br /></b><div class="content noh direction_ltr" id="msg.b4c48966f981500d53c06be384b30bb689">
<b>Its
criminal.. and a shame and not for me or my husband who now has lyme as
well . But for my children.. 2 of my 3 battle this. Given to them from
me, congenitally.</b><br />
</div>
<div class="content noh direction_ltr" id="msg.29699a54e46ae88e3cb139a68ea2f88153">
How
can the children be ignored. Not just mine but the thousands of other
lyme kids. Kids who don't know what its like to live without pain. Kids
whos daily routine doesn't just includes brushing teeth, and homework
but taking pills and pain medication.</div>
<div class="content noh direction_ltr" id="msg.dae9c954e26851b60edb7cc38bc90f5f80">
Supplements and detoxing.<br />
</div>
<div class="content noh direction_ltr" id="msg.f362fc2e857a42a9693cbc5be55fed5621">
And
that's just if it can be afforded. For us its not about making the
choice between treatment or a summer family vacation.. It's about do we
pay the electric bill this week or get more supplements. Family fun and
vacations are the dreams of our children just out of our reach.<br />
<br />
<div class="content noh direction_ltr" id="id.348370445256678">
The
doubt and distrust that you begin to have for doctors, nurses and
medical professionals, is disheartening. The incredible links that you
learn exist, between Lyme and other diseases and yet you find such a
lack of research and awareness.<br />
</div>
<div class="content noh direction_ltr" id="id.154590761348186">
The
friends that you lose because they do not understand how one day you
can cheer on your child in a sports game and then just a day later be in
extreme pain , unable to get out of bed.</div>
<div class="content noh direction_ltr" id="id.444387855612287">
This disease takes so much from families and its time to be taken seriously.<br />
</div>
<div class="content noh direction_ltr" id="id.490326457652331">
I
do not want to end this on a negative note, I would like to say that my
faith keeps me going. The faith that God has created good decent human
beings who will take a stand for all the suffering people.. Especially
the children. God has truly put some wonderfully amazing people in my
life due to Lyme. That is the silver lining in all of this chaos.
People that I feel honored to stand with in the fight for Lyme disease.
God bless!!</div>

<strong>Brain scans detect fibromyalgia</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Dr. Oz show that was aired in 2012, showed
a picture of a brain scan of someone with fibromyalgia. That scan
showed an area down the center of the brain and across the top of the
frontal cortex in a bright blue. It was explained that this area of the
brain had a very low blood supply. It was also explained that this was
the area of the brain that was directly connected to pain processing
and emotional responses to pain. No wonder the brain doesn’t know when
to shut off its pain sensors, it’s not nourished. The scan that detects
these changes in brain function is called a photon emission computed
tomography (SPECT) scan. It’s nice to know that <em>brain scans detect fibromyalgia</em>. Here is the link to this show <strong><span style="color: black;"><a href="http://www.doctoroz.com/videos/fibromyalgia-real-illness-pt-1#cmpid_FB_LINK">http://www.doctoroz.com/videos/fibromyalgia-real-illness-pt-1#cmpid_FB_LINK</a></span></strong>. It’s in two parts and the second part is listed below this video.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
On November 3rd a study was release from Marsielle, France. This study included <a href="http://jnm.snmjournals.org/content/49/11/1798.full.pdf">thirty women</a>,
twenty had fibromyalgia and ten were normal. A 100 question
fibromyalgia test was given to these women. This test also showed
differences in brain function between the women with fibromyalgia and
those without. This study was conducted by Dr. Guedj and his colleagues.
The twenty women with fibromyalgia were diagnosed according to tests
that the American College of Rheumatology uses.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
An increased score on this test
indicated that low blood flow occurs in the left anterior temporal
cluster. This area of the brain sets at about the area of the ear on the
left side. This hypoperfusion (low blood flow) showed up the most in
the polar and mediobasal cortices.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to Dr Guedj the results of
this test indicated that fibromyalgia is a disorder of the central part
of the brain where pain sensations are heightened.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The results of these findings might explain why doctors can’t find any physical reasons for fibromyalgia.</div>
Other tests were given to these women besides the 100 questions.
They were given tests that rates pain on a scale, a French version of
the McGill Pain Questionnaire, the Questionnaire Doleur de Saint-Antoine
scale, and the Tubingen Pain Behavior Scale.<br />
The only results that were compared to the SPECT scans were the results from the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire.<br />
“The relationship between somatosensory hyperperfusion and
fibromyalgia clinical severity is reported for, to our knowledge, the
first time and reinforces the central sensitization hypothesis,” they
wrote.<br />
Low blood flow to the left anterior temporal region, which is part of
the limbic system, could lead to an explanation regarding another
aspect of fibromyalgia – Brain fog.<br />
There was another study from the <a href="http://www.anapsid.org/cnd/diagnosis/brainpain.html">University of Michigan</a>
Health Services. This study shows that persons with fibromyalgia
suffer more pain from a gentle pinch that persons who don’t have it. In
fact, the pressure from the pinch has to be twice as much for the
persons who don’t have fibromyalgia to feel as much as those who do. The
sense of pain shows up in different areas of the brain than the
individuals with fibromyalgia.<br />
This study also included fMRI’s that were performed on sixteen
patients with fibromyalgia. fMRI is an extremely fast form of MRI. It
is reported that the results of these tests give a road map of where the
pain is felt in the brain.<br />
Simply put, low blood flow to the central and left temporal portions
of the brain could very well be a leading cause for the pain and
confusion that we fibromyalgia patients suffer with. Thank goodness
it’s not “in our heads” like some physicians still think it is. Then
again, it looks like maybe it really IS in our heads. It’s nice to know <span style="text-decoration: underline;">brain scans detect fibromyalgia.</span><br />

Abstract</h3>
Venous
vascular contributing factors to multiple sclerosis (MS) have been
known for some time. Only recently has the scope of their potential role
become more apparent with the theory of chronic cerebrospinal venous
insufficiency (CCSVI). As research expands to further explore the role
of vascular pathology in the MS population, it is expedient to review
the evidence from an imaging perspective. In this paper, we review the
current state-of-the-art methods using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
as applied to imaging MS patients and CCSVI. This includes evaluating
imaging signatures of vascular structure and flow as well as brain iron
content. Upon review of the literature, we find that extracranial
venous anomalies including stenosis, venous malformations, and
collateralization of flow in the major veins of the neck have been
observed to be prevalent in the MS population. Abnormal flow has been
reported in MS patients both in major vessels using phase-contrast flow
quantification and in the brain using perfusion-weighted imaging. We
discuss the role of quantitative flow imaging and its potential in
assessing possible biomarkers for abnormal flow. Finally, it has been
suggested that the presence of high iron content may indirectly indicate
progression of existing vascular pathology. To that end, we review the
use of susceptibility-weighted imaging in monitoring iron in the
thalamus, basal ganglia, and MS lesions.</div>

Abstract</h3>
<h4>
OBJECTIVE: </h4>
To
describe the clinical and laboratory findings as well as results of
treatment in patients with Lyme disease associated with fibromyalgia.<br />
<h4>
DESIGN: </h4>
Observational cohort study. The mean duration of observation was 2.5 years (range, 1 to 4 years).<br />
<h4>
SETTING: </h4>
Diagnostic Lyme disease clinic in a university hospital.<br />
<h4>
PATIENTS: </h4>
Of
287 patients seen with Lyme disease during a 3.5-year period, 22 (8%)
had fibromyalgia associated with this illness, and 15 (5%) participated
in the observational study.<br />
<h4>
MEASUREMENTS: </h4>
Symptoms and signs of fibromyalgia, immunodiagnostic tests for Lyme disease, and tests of neurologic function.<br />
<h4>
RESULTS: </h4>
Of
the 15 patients, 9 developed widespread musculoskeletal pain, tender
points, dysesthesias, memory difficulties, and debilitating fatigue a
mean duration of 1.7 months after early Lyme disease; the remaining six
patients developed those symptoms during the course of Lyme arthritis.
At the time of our evaluation, late in the course of their illness, 11
patients had positive immunoglobulin (Ig) G antibody responses to
Borrelia burgdorferi by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), one
had a positive Western blot, and the three seronegative patients had
positive cellular immune responses to borrelial antigens. Four patients
had abnormal cerebrospinal fluid analyses that showed an elevated
protein level, a slight pleocytosis, or intrathecal antibody production
to the spirochete. The signs of Lyme disease resolved with antibiotic
therapy, usually intravenous ceftriaxone, 2 g/d for 2 to 4 weeks, except
in one patient with persistent knee swelling. However, 14 of the 15
patients continued to have symptoms of fibromyalgia. Currently, only one
patient is completely asymptomatic.<br />
<h4>
CONCLUSIONS: </h4>
Lyme disease may trigger fibromyalgia, but antibiotics do not seem to be effective in the treatment of the fibromyalgia.</div>

<a href="http://owndoc.com/lyme/multiple-sclerosis-is-lyme-disease-anatomy-of-a-cover-up/" target="_blank">Multiple sclerosis is Lyme disease: Anatomy of a cover-up</a></h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Perhaps the biggest ongoing medical
scandal of the past hundred years is the fact that it has been known
since 1911 that Multiple Sclerosis is caused by a bacterium, and that
the medical establishment covered this up, in order to make money
selling symptom relievers to MS patients. Since 1911, overwhelmingly
much medical research has been conducted where living Borrelia bacteria
were found in the brains of people who were diagnosed with MS.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Time and time again. By at least a dozen
medical researchers. In at least ten countries. Since 1911 – the past
one hundred years. Several older but also recent autopsy findings linked
to in this article found that <b>all deceased MS patients’ brains harbored living Lyme spirochetes</b>.
Even when tests, notorious for their large percentage of false
negatives were used on living MS patients, staggeringly many tested
positive for active Lyme borreliosis.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Then why isn’t this common knowledge? Surely, those thousands of MS experts and MS researchers can’t be all wrong?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Let’s examine the reality on the ground.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>1. Multiple Sclerosis Societies.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://www.owndoc.com/uploads/Lyme-Multiple-sclerosis.jpg"><img alt="" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1633" height="254" src="http://www.owndoc.com/uploads/Lyme-Multiple-sclerosis.jpg" title="Lyme-Multiple-sclerosis" width="270" /></a>Every
Western country has at least one MS Society. Each of those tax-exempt
societies typically receives tens of millions of dollars in funding from
various sources, year after year. The people running those societies
usually award themselves CEO-level salaries and run them as one would
run a highly commercial corporation. Advertising is used to solicit
funds but if you don’t read ads then you’ll bump into them, one day,
begging you for money on the street. For all those billions that have
been pumped over the decades in those hundreds of MS societies
worldwide, not a single one has ever done anything really useful for MS
patients. The worst that could possibly happen for the bosses of those
setups is that the cause of MS would become known. A known cause would
either mean the development of either a cure or at least better symptom
relievers, and that would rapidly result in the obsoleteness of their
money making machine – the chicken that lays the golden eggs if you
will. Such MS societies are working in concert with MS “researchers”
employed by Big Pharma.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>2. Big Pharma.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Multinational pharmaceutical
corporations are the only ones doing MS research nowadays, mainly using
donations to MS societies. Those multinationals decide which researchers
get the cash. Researchers wanting to test the postulation of bacterial
etiology of MS are shunned as if they were crackpots. Big Pharma makes
billions a year on MS symptom relievers and they trickle millions down
to their footsoldiers, the “MS experts”. A cure would be a severe
financial blow. Even more so, because there is strong evidence that many
other neurological illnesses are caused by germs as well. Because due
to the phenomenon of immune privilege there is an inadequate immune
response in the brain and spinal cord, making these organs the ideal
place for certain slow-dividing spirochetal bacteria to entrench,
multiply and cause lesions. The entire concept of antibiotic-resistant,
hard-to-test-for chronic CNS infections leading to a dearth of
neurological syndromes has to be suppressed and what can’t be suppressed
will be craftily discredited. Better to give every expression of a
neurological infection its own name such as “MS”, “Alzheimers”,
“Parkinsons,” “ALS” and “Fibromyalgia”. And fund armies of ignorant
“experts” to obfuscate the issue, whilst boycotting, firing, censoring,
smearing and suing those few real experts that refuse to stay in line.
Big Pharma is in business to make money, and money is made when people
are ill, not when they’re healthy. Anyone standing in their way is
relegated to the sidelines. Patents are being bought and shelved so that
cures will never see the light of day.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>3. Patient advocacy groups.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
MS patient groups are, without
exception, populated with clueless individuals for the simple reason
that those who did their homework and read the relevant research have
been ostracized by the group. They always were and they always will,
because that’s how group dynamics works. As soon as you insist on
voicing an opinion outside of the mainstream, no matter how well argued –
you’ll be an outcast, a pariah. They don’t want rogue activists, “lone
nutters”, giving them a bad name. Also the advocacy groups are raking in
the dough and are run by folks whose main concern is that membership
dues are paid in time. No MS, no advocacy group. Of course if there ever
will emerge a lobby group insisting on more microbiological research
pertaining Multiple sclerosis, they’ll be branded “lunatic fringe” and
their efforts will be in vain.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>4. MS “experts”.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Those “experts” get away with calling
themselves thus, because Big Pharma gives them their seal of approval in
the form of research grants and medical media exposure. However they
are only experts in doing exactly what Big Pharma wants them to do:
Obscuring the cause of Multiple Sclerosis! In return, the “experts” get
regular cash injections for their “promising research” and other goodies
such as all-in holidays to exotic destinations. There never will be a
cure for MS until the scandal breaks and new antibiotics are developed
that work better than the few currently available antibiotics that cross
the blood-brain barrier. As it stands, it has been more than twenty
years ago since any new antibiotic was developed. As soon as it was
found that Minocycline helped with MS, its manufacturer, Lederle,
tripled its price.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
After long consideration I came to the
conclusion that at least a crucial part of this debâcle was due to a
real conspiracy – mainly a conspiracy of silence of those few MS
researchers bright enough to realize that the cause for MS has been
known for at least a hundred years. As is always the case with medical
cover-ups, it continues to exist due to a mix of ignorance,
indifference, cowardice and corruption. The saying goes: “Do not
attribute to malice that what can be adequately blamed on ignorance”.
All the “experts” really are interested in is being “experts”, not
curing Multiple sclerosis. However it still is a conspiracy. It is
completely normal for conspiracies to succeed because the lion share of
the people who could point it out don’t care, are too lazy to get
educated or feel too intimidated to stick out their necks.
Microbiologist Tom Grier calls them cowards. The fact that most
conspiracies are silently facilitated by an army of “useful idiots” with
a stake in it being kept under the rug does not make it any less a
conspiracy.</div>
<h2>
Evidence for a conspiracy of silence</h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now I’ve given my opinion. You may find it harsh – I call it mild.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You don’t have to believe <i>me</i>,
when I say there is a conspiracy. Believe Alzheimer and Parkinson’s
disease expert Dr. Alan B. MacDonald M.D., Staff Pathologist at the St.
Catherine of Siena Medical Center. He <a href="http://www.medical-hypotheses.com/article/S0306-9877%2806%2900275-1/abstract">wrote</a>:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
(published online 10 July 2006 in Volume 67, Issue 4, page 819-832 in Medical Hypotheses)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>“Conventional thinking about spirochetal cyst forms is divided between two polar spheres of influence; <b>one a majority community that completely denies the existence of spirochetal cyst forms</b>, and a second group of <b>academically persecuted</b>
individuals who accepts the precepts of such antebellum scientists as
Schaudinn, Hoffman, Dutton, Levaditi, Balfour, Fantham, Noguchi,
McDonough, Hindle, Steiner, Ingraham, Coutts, Hampp, Warthin,
Ovcinnikov, and Delamater. Microscopic images of cystic spirochetes are
difficult to ignore, but as has been the case in this century, <b>academic
“endowments” have nearly expunged all cystic spirochetal image data
from the current textbook versions of what is the truth about the
spirochetaceae</b>. If the image database from the last century is
obliterated; many opportunities to diagnose will be lost. Variously
sized cystic spirochetal profiles within diseased nerve cells explain
the following structures: <b>Lewy body of Parkinson’s disease, Pick
body, ALS spherical body, Alzheimer plaque. Borrelia infection is
therefore a unifying concept to explain diverse neurodegenerative
diseases</b>, based not entirely on a corkscrew shaped profile in
diseased tissue, but based on small, medium and large caliber rounded
cystic profiles derived from pathogenic spirochetes which are hiding in
plain sight.”</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Note how he claims that the majority of
researchers deny the existence of spirochetal cystic forms. Denial is
defined as knowing that something exists, but deliberately refusing to
acknowledge it for ulterior motives. By putting “endowments” between
question marks, he implies that Big Pharma <i>bribes </i>universities and publishers into censoring the very existence of spirochetal cysts from medical textbooks.</div>

New Ideas About the Cause, Spread<br />and Therapy of Lyme Disease<br />by Dr. James Howenstine<br />
<br /><b>Townsend Letter for Doctors and Patients, July 2004</b><br />
<br />Lyme Disease was initially regarded as an uncommon illness caused by the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi (Bb). The disease transmission was thought to be solely by the bite from a tick infected with this spirochete. The Bb spirochete is able to burrow into tendons, muscle cells, ligaments, and directly into organs. A classic bulls-eye rash is often visible in the early stage of the illness. Later in the illness the disease can afflict the heart, nervous system, joints and other organs. It is now realized that the disease can mimic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, Bell’s Palsy, reflex sympathetic dystrophy, neuritis, psychiatric illnesses such as schizophrenia, chronic fatigue, heart failure, angina, irregular heart rhythms, fibromyalgia, dermatitis, autoimmune diseases such as scleroderma and lupus, eye inflammatory reactions, sudden deafness, SIDS, ADD and hyperactivity, chronic pain and many other conditions.<br /><a href="http://bms411.com/clients/2969/documents/lyme-disease-spread.pdf" target="_blank">Read More</a>Blog Administrationhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13671091292515316492noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2638919082423518879.post-1487475194304496402012-09-13T20:02:00.001-07:002012-09-13T20:02:21.721-07:00Dehydration/Neurological and Autoimmune Disorders <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
If you have been diagnosed with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, you might suffer from low blood volume here are some tips that may help.<br />
<br />
1. Increase Water Intake<br />
<br />
2. Increase salt in diet<br />
<br />
3. Sleep with your head elevated. This does not mean just a pillow over your head. But put a couple books under the head of you bed, or get a pillow wedge which lifts you up from the waist up. <br />

This is a letter one of Dave's daughters wrote explaining their family, and her attempt
to protect the Doctor who she knew may have saved her Dad. Since this
letter was written her older sister is now being treated for Chronic
Lyme.<br />
<br />
Hi, my name is Kelsey and I am a 20-year-old college student from
northern Illinois. I have a mom and a dad, two older sisters, a
wonderful extended family including a brother-in-law and an 8-month-old
neice that we all absolutely adore. You could say that it sounds like we
have a pretty great family right there but one thing about us makes our
family life a little more difficult than an average family of that
status. My father has chronic Lyme disease. If you do not have anyone in
your family suffering from Lyme you probably can not imagine what it is
like. In order for you to see a little of what it is like I will
attempt to show you into our little world.<br />

<br />
Like I stated previously, my father David Marsh has Lyme. My 'father
David Marsh who has Lyme' is not the same 'father David Marsh who does
not have Lyme'. Growing up I saw my dad at night just like most families
like mine ... unless he was working late; on those days I did not see
him. My father was a hard worker. He worked outside, stayed late at
work, went in early and went to work whenever he would get called to. He
never used his sick days and not once did I see him call into work.
When he was not at work, he went hunting, fishing, did yardwork, played
outside with his children & his dogs and mostly just enjoyed the
outdoors. Lately I do not see my dad as much; but not because he is not
around. Sometimes I wish I could spend more time with him but it is not
always that easy. I am a college student now; I have my own life outside
of my mom and dad, I go to school and I work 40-50 hours a week during
the summer. My father used to be the one working all the time; he
probably worked more than 70 hours some weeks. He can not do that
anymore. The father I just introduced you to was the daddy I had before
Lyme disease had him.<br />

<br />
The father I have now is often confused, very paranoid and always
worrying about Lyme. Some times it gets frustrating trying to talk to
him because he has a hard time concentrating. He is always thinking
about his Lyme, his doctors and his finances. My dad does not trust most
doctors anymore; for years he would complain about his doctors and how
they were not helping him at all. I do not hear that anymore since he
has been seeing Dr. Hoffman. I also never really saw my dad worry about
money as much before he had Lyme. He was able to work more often and
bring in more income. My father can not work as much anymore; he is
often in pain, his arms, back and legs have started to give out and his
hearing is progressively getting worse. My father has also become very
depressed since he became ill.<br />
<br />
About seven or eight years ago is when my father became ill. Doctors did
not know what to do. They told him it was all in his head, they made
random diagnoses and they even put him on a lot of medication. My father
is not a stupid man; he may get a little confused some times now but he
certainly is not stupid. He was smart enough to realize that these
doctors he was seeing were not going to help. I honestly do not know as
much about my father's disease as I should because I am not always
around and because of that I am not sure how he came across Dr. Hoffman
but I do know that he truly cares about the man. Dr. Hoffman, I believe,
saved my father's life. Since my dad began seeing Dr. Hoffman he has
been much happier. Now that Dr. Hoffman's license is being questioned
for suspension, my father is devastated. If you take away his license,
you are also taking away my father's hope and once again, his happiness.
In my eyes, Dr. Hoffman is a savior to the Lyme community.
Unfortunately, I have never met him but he must be an amazing man to do
the things he knew.<br />
<br />
If you choose to suspend Dr. Hoffman's license, I want you to see that
you are not only effecting him and his patients that adore him, you are
also breaking the hearts of their loved ones. No one has helped the way
Dr. Hoffman has and these people really need him.<br />
In order for you to fully grasp our family I have also included a few
photos for you. I hope it helps you to recognize how important Dr.
Hoffman really is.<br />
<br />
This is my dad and my neice. Her name is Addison Grace and<br />
she makes my father happier than I have seen him in a very long<br />
time. My dad does not smile much anymore but this little girl right<br />
here and Dr. Hoffman have begun to bring out that smile again.<br />

This is part of my father's support group. He really does love this<br />
group. As you can see, most of the members are adults but not<br />
that little girl right in the center. She also has Lyme. If you take<br />
away Dr. Hoffman's doctor you are taking away her life. Dr.<br />
Hoffman is also that wonderful little girl's doctor. No one has<br />
helped her family the way he has.<br />

I hope you took the time to read this and I hope it let you in just a
little to what it really is like to live with someone with Lyme disease.
Dr. Hoffman has been a savior to my father's life and I truly can not
imagine having to go back to times without him.<br />
