    Anything like this in the works for long term/chronic Bartonella? Would the ELISPOT currently be the best current test? I recently tested 1:256 IGG on the IFA for Henselae despite not leaving the house for 2 years. I had the striae appear 15 years ago and PANS symptoms since. The only reason I can't entirely trust the IFA results is apparently the test has cross reactivity with essentially most pathogens (brucella, mycoplasma, ehrlichia etc)

I am in a magnetic Lyme treatment now and will probably need treatment for at least a year. I’m also doing LDA (low dose allergy) immunotherapy for food allergies/ sensitivities. I’ve only just begun and that will be at least 2 years. A long road but I am more than determined to get my life back!

I’m now seeing a new doc, I only want to test once! Also having a MRI done soon, we late folk are high risk for brain damage. I’m about 80% physically better, but mentally I’m not well.

    If you think you were infected 7 years ago, will this test have a good chance of not picking up any antibody proteins? How long is too long to detect antibody proteins? And is that in general or just for this test? My ELISA came back negative. Not 1 maker reacted. My Wester Bolt came back positive. 2 out of the 3 reacted. Just not marker 41. Would this text be good for me to confirm?

      Our mission at Galaxy is to advance sensitivity of direct detection using novel technologies and approaches. The costs of new innovations are often prohibitive for many patients. We are working towards insurance reimbursements which will help. Multiplexing is another approach that we are exploring to bring down costs. Finally, we expect the costs of the innovative systems we use will come down over time which will allow us to pass savings onto those who pay. When people order from Galaxy, they are supporting both diagnostic innovation and advances in clinical research in this very important area of emerging infectious diseases.

      Try Keto for a couple of weeks and herbs for Lyme. All the crab nourish on carbs . Without carbs they become vulnerable and can be treated with herbs. Some die out when their bacteria friends are killed. Bacteria are not isolated . They live ingroups with different species. Lyme is not only borellia.

  • @davidsolomo8701
    @davidsolomo8701 6 років тому

    With these kind of infections you must look at the whole picture. There is a host/pathogen interaction. Why do these people not clear the bacteria in the CSD phase of infection? And when they develop chronic bacteremia, why do some have symptoms and others not? Also, without a sufficient host response, most antibiotics that are only bacteriostatic will fail. This is true for almost all intracellular infections that require a reservoir to survive. Since acute CSD doesn't require antibiotics in most individuals or at least does nothing to speed recovery, and chronic infection is the result from an insufficient host response, using antibiotics for this chronic phase that are not bactericidal is highly contradictory. We must find better solutions than prescribing rifampin/macrolide or rifampin/tetracycline treatments because 6 months fails, 12 months fails and 18 months fails with regular dosages in most of these patients. There is no treatment that works when the patient does not tolerate rifampin.

The symptoms such as burning and stinging moved down my legs. I experienced pain in my shins and heels and balls of my feet. I developed tinitus that would come and go and eye floaters in my left eye. I asked my dumb ass doctor for a lyme test. Of course, he only requested the elisa for b. burgdorferi. Which came back negative. The symptoms worsened. I developed grandulomas around the capillaries near my toes and ankles. I broke out on my shins almost in a mirror pattern on both sides. I thought maybe toxo or something. I presented it to my shitty doctor and her prescribed my scabies shit, which didn't work. I asked for blood work and the cock sucker told me it want necessary.
