I had untreated Lymes for 20 years. I was diagnosed, had to gain my health back, then get treatment. I almost died 3 times. It's a horrible disease to go through, all by yourself. No family near me. I was helped by a Naturopathic Doctor, who saved my life. All the other numerous doctors couldn't figure it out. They tried so hard to tag me with mental illness. Now it's been 25 years, and I still feel the ravages of this disease. I'm better, but, it just dosent go away. Dreadful disease. If it weren't for answered prayers, I would not be alive. 💜🙏💜
Brilliant! (and funny "two swinging spirochetes" lol.) This series of interviews is the best education on Borrelia /Lyme, biofilms etc! I am thankful for Dr.MacDonald's time, dedication and global perspective.
Cindy Nilsen the governments made it you need to thank the doctors who are fighting to get us treatment they need to do away with the INFECTIOUS DISEASE SOCIETYOF AMERICA better yet infect them since they do not believe there are cronic conditions of lyme if they believe it then infect them.
Because I thought I had lyme (diagnosed by natural Dr)the hospital (Sanford in ND) diagnosed me with numerous mental illnesses and tried to have me committed. They based it on ridiculous number of lies- that they did get caught in, refused to allow me to see my medical records, said biofilm did not exist, tried to keep me from any outside contact ( restricting phone use), owned my lawyer who refused to get my med records or allow me any witnesses, and were going to court mandate me to be forced medicated before hearing. After leaving I was diagnosed with lyme and babesia through Igenx. And all the above is not even the crazy parts of the story. It was only through a miracle that I could smuggle a letter out to the judge that I was court ordered to be released. Does this happen to others?
I pray to God someone can reach out to me in this research community. I have had this for over 20 years, I am disfigured neck up.....from this. My skin needs to be tested for this fight against CDC. I just learned from all my reading and videos I've seen from wonderful people like Dr. Alan MacDonald, I KNOW I have this, in every form.I can not get any help, even with a diagnosis. ....I am TAGGED in my medical records as delusional. ...God Give Me Strength
One has to ask why the study and treatment of Lyme, Alzheimer's, and associated spirochete illnesses have been so hard to study and treat. It almost appears as though the CDC is fighting all research and publishing regarding these illnesses.
CDC has certainly failed with lyme....malpractice on a global scale. I wonder if the bosses at those public health agencies realize that it compromises their reputation in all areas by their negligence and incompetence with lyme. Of course, lyme is not their only failure. People with chronic fatigue/ME, autistic children, and others have also been failed.
Great video series, thank you Dr. MacDonald you have been a wealth of information that is easy to understand and is very interesting! Kudos to you and the amazing work you have contributed to Lyme Disease and Biofilms.
You want to know something Dr Macdonald? You are the best. Just the best. Thank you for these beautiful insights and explanations. Would really love to snag a copy of Modern Clinical Syphilology for my own education but boy oh boy it is impossible to find. I imagine most copies are tied up in institutions and in the collections of medical practitioners.
I bought one years ago on ebay, or was it amazon. Anyway, there are rare copies out there. Then after some years, I sold to another lyme person online. After seeing it, I was wishing such a volume could be produced for lyme. A truthful one.
Thank you Dr Alan Macdonald, you have given me a confidence in understanding the problems I am facing. Now, how to educate a doctor in Australia ??? -to approach a treatment plan. I am very glad for your in depth knowledge and the ability to impart it. Australian seems quite ignorant in medical profession's approach to this very real and debilitating problem. They don't have a test- so therefore they don't want to acknowledge a problem exists at all and in fact this was the very statement made a few nights ago on a documentary segment on TV. It is a bit like going to do a research degree - where they want the answers before you commence the study. If it doesn't fit in the box, then it doesn't exist or is not legitimate. Not your Average Yogi Bear... or should I say Karamello Koala. It is amazing how irrational conventions make intelligent people sound blatantly stupid...Thanks for giving me the right info to put in my arsenal....Happy Christmas to you!
this is the perfect bio-weapon for the drug industry if left undiagnosed, you can sell the hole plethora of medications for all the varying symptoms of Lyme disease.
Great information, I keep coming back and rewatching, and relearning-brain fog, but also there is so much to learn to be a good advocate for yourself. All this great info was dismissed by my doc and the "infectious disease specialist" doc here in mid coast Maine. This is science. So why is America so dismissive of science? Self destructive and ignorant of us.
I need more information on the existence of Lyme and Borrelia in South Africa ~ it is unacknowledged here, and people , myself included, are misdiagnosed and suffering because the medical profession will not investigate. Any lab tests done will show negative because the tests are not specific to South African tick species.
Thank you for this wonderful lecture! I would like to ask Dr. Alan MacDonald: what he thinks about the following: what species/genotype cause Morgellons in people?
so why if you all know this much,, do I have doctor's telling me there is not chronic Lyme? Some go so far to say no lyme disease in arkansas or missouri, doc told me I am just depressed, Even tho i did finally get a positive test result, treated but when i did not get better the doctor went nuts on me, and back tracked on me and tried to tell me he never said i had lyme,, BUt I called my insurance people and yes, it is in my records, now why did he do me that way? my feet hurt everyday, joint pain, tummy problems, I have had a brain scan that showed white matter, which i was told might be MS, he sent me to neuro who said the brain scan looked to be stroke, I had numbness, pain all over, fatigue,. eye problems, have given up ,, I want someone to look at my brain when i die,
I'm so glad that I came back to watch these videos again. I posted on the 1st video that I had Lyme Meningitis 2 1/2 years ago. One month ago I was diagnosed with MS. In searching for information on MS I just found that the NIH and the CDC has given Chronic Lyme Disease a fairly new name; Post-Treatment Lyme Disease Syndrome, PTLDS. They're also now confirming that there are three stages. I have only found a couple of sites stating that there is a connection with Lyme and MS. They said that it's been Under Diagnosed, but here in the North East it's been an epidemic for the past 10 years at least. I'm getting relief from changing my diet to a strict Keto/IF per my Rheumatologist; this has been my first step. I hope more people find this information. Thank you for still having this information up.
So how do we get rid of these monsters since they are so intelligent. Drs do not address the issue and make you think you are bonkers. How do we get help!
I've heard about a new ultraviolet machine called the UVLRx that's being used for Lyme patients. It uses a fiber optic thread which is inserted directly into the vein and the treatment lasts for an hour, so all the blood is treated. Has anyone tried this?
I appreciate your work and knowledge, but wonder why you still think borrelia only comes from ticks? Many of those infected have never been bitten by one and would like to see research and discovery of other vectors included in the study.
Lyme Help thanks, I had just ordered some the other day. How often did you take it and what else did you take with it? .... and what brand did you order?
I ordered a teasel organic on eBay. However I stopped it because I was not making progress. So I tried mms again seeing what it would do and it is working. This is where I ordered it from. You choose 2 pet bottles or 2hdpe bottle. PM me for more information www.wps4sale.com/SPD/wps1-4oz-kit--basic-starter-kit--4oz-kit--ia1378180625825.jsp In terms of improvement 20-30% in days. It still takes a while to heal. .
Lyme Help thanks for the reply. I'm pretty sure what I thought was lyme was mold poisoning. I feel much better except now have low blood pressure and feel like I'm going to faint anytime a stand or walk in the early morning..... I ordered an mms kit years ago and never used it because I'm more into herbs and not chemicals. If that is working for you then great though do some more research and check out emu oil. that is supposed to go directing thru the skin and into the joints also, then just mix with your essential oils. - let me know if you check any of that out and what you find out.
I will make a follow-up video when I can. I am using MMS (critic acid + sodium chlorite) IV diluted in distilled water and its working very well for the first day. I would say its more powerful than IV antibiotics I received back in 2014. Stay tuned.
Brilliant, now where is our cure, 16 years still sick, do I always have Lyme meningitis/encephalitis where it has been in my brain all these years . Do Oral antibiotics even touch it. Do they cross the blood brain barrier or am I going to die witj Alzheimer's disease I am fourty-seven an feel mentally incompetent at times. I have narcolepsy like coma States, I don't pass out and sleep but I absolutely must sleep. Shaking in my brain and involuntary noises or spasms.
+Linda Lane I'm so sorry to hear of your condition. My wife and I have both had success with long-term antibiotic therapy. To do that you'll have to find a Lyme-aware doctor. The ILADS website can help you to find one in your area-- as you may know. My case was discovered (by me, of course) two to three years after probable infection. I was age 64 at the time. I'm now 70 and pretty healthy with only a lingering knee condition. (It probably began with a meniscus injury in my youth, but may well have been aggravated by the Lyme). My wife then discovered that she had Lyme (Borreliosis), which we estimate to have been contracted 12 years earlier. She had a multiplex of symptoms, and still suffers some after 7 years of treatment. But now at age 73, she is so much better--the brain fog and other debilitating symptoms are mostly gone. She is convinced she would be a cripple now, if we hadn't discovered and treated it. Arthritis, and a variety of other symptoms still linger, but a manageable level.
"Oh my God I think I have malignant Malenoma, its brown and it wasnt there the last time I looked....but it has legs." lol too funny. Watch for engorged ticks!
Tammy Rogers What is BS? I said they don't spend any on cure, but you also have to realize that there are doctors using bad lab tests that give false positives and that is BS too. I think the best test is the Ceres Nano antigen test developed by George Mason University. If you aren't positive on that test then I think you don't have it. I was negative on that test. I did however develop neuropathy and eczema as chronic conditions from taking antibiotics from an igenx using doctor. Ceres nano will add Bartonella and Babesia to the test in the end of 2016, so you can get tested for Bartonella then too and I plan to. Who knows, it is possible we have Bartonella, not Borrelia. The NIH wasn't really interested in developing high sensitivity antigen testing for these chronic infections.
I had my son tested by a private doctor Leicester England and he tested positive ...he’s going through psychosis and the NHS here are terrible and have no understanding of people having this over a long period of time . My son had meningitis at 3 could this have been when he was bitten ? He’s 16 now that means over 13 years . I’m looking at lots of different treatments I’m doing antibiotics but I don’t feel good about that and going to go back to herbal once I have the money . He also has 4 co infections .
Thomas and ADR Support: What about the Igenex test? Also, what about ditching the IDSA and adopting the ILADS guidelines for Lyme testing and treatment?
Dr. MacDonald: what do you think of the research done by James J Collins in Boston regarding using nano particles of silver against gram-negative bacteria? stm.sciencemag.org/content/5/190/190ra81.short
Well, Barbour did some good microbiology work but failed at understanding how to treat it. In that he is right with the Steere gang, and so you have to wonder if the good he did is exceeded by the evil he has visited on so many sick people.
Maybe Elon Musk has a reason to go to Mars that actually has to do with Lyme Disease... Makes me think twice about why the Tesla Model X has Bio Defense Mode.. Musk almost died of "something" he cought once , must of made his big brain think..
One of my HEROS :) Dr Alan MacDonald is an amazingly dedicated pioneer 💚
I agree, love this man
I’m so scared of the new young doctors. They do not care as much as the older generation did. They just want to drive a Ferrari.
I had untreated Lymes for 20 years. I was diagnosed, had to gain my health back, then get treatment. I almost died 3 times. It's a horrible disease to go through, all by yourself. No family near me. I was helped by a Naturopathic Doctor, who saved my life. All the other numerous doctors couldn't figure it out. They tried so hard to tag me with mental illness.

Hope, pls see some of my comments from today's date, the products may help.
what herbs did you use that helped you?
Brilliant! (and funny "two swinging spirochetes" lol.) This series of interviews is the best education on Borrelia /Lyme, biofilms etc! I am thankful for Dr.MacDonald's time, dedication and global perspective.
Dr Macdonald is a hero
Brilliant man
Wish he was still working on borrelia and Alzheimer’s
He's retired, but he still is in his own quiet way. He's amazing.
Wow...no wonder I'm getting nowhere fast with getting an accurate diagnosis! These governments need to wake up...now!
Cindy Nilsen the governments made it you need to thank the doctors who are fighting to get us treatment they need to do away with the INFECTIOUS DISEASE SOCIETYOF AMERICA better yet infect them since they do not believe there are cronic conditions of lyme if they believe it then infect them.

In Canada as well,any bioweapon covered up (morgellans) Docs are told by those on top ,deny existence and claim in the mind.
Wow!

Have you seen a LLMD ? What region are you in?
Sad....
One has to ask why the study and treatment of Lyme, Alzheimer's, and associated spirochete illnesses have been so hard to study and treat. It almost appears as though the CDC is fighting all research and publishing regarding these illnesses.
Because, there is more money to be made in treating disease than curing it
it will hurt profits simple.
CDC has certainly failed with lyme....malpractice on a global scale. I wonder if the bosses at those public health agencies realize that it compromises their reputation in all areas by their negligence and incompetence with lyme. Of course, lyme is not their only failure. People with chronic fatigue/ME, autistic children, and others have also been failed.

@Maciej WrOtEk Data that can be used to find treatment.

Cassandra, Please see Crescent Moon in Maine- I had success self-treatment with their Lyme Tincture.
Thank you, Dr. MacDonald.

I learned I had Chronic Lyme Meningitis, I used Ivermectin and it worked very quickly.
this guy is great.

Thank you so much you are a great man
That is the big secret isn't it. That enough is/was known about Borrelia to weaponize it quite a long time ago.
I appreciate your work and knowledge, but wonder why you still think borrelia only comes from ticks? Many of those infected have never been bitten by one and would like to see research and discovery of other vectors included in the study.
I'm assuming some of you here are struggling with Lyme. Give teasel root organic a try. It helped me find HUGE relief in a 4 year Lyme battle.

oh lord,law makers,this man should be a adviser to government,
Nope! As you can see he is quite lucid, passionate and knowledgeable.
"Oh my God I think I have malignant Malenoma, its brown and it wasnt there the last time I looked....but it has legs." lol too funny. Watch for engorged ticks!
How much money does the NIH spend on a Lyme disease cure? $0?
+MrApplewine My BF was un diagnosed for 8 years.We live in NH also.Its just such BS!!!

They spend their money to disprove lyme is chronic. Give them more money and they will just spend it that way too.

Thomas and ADR Support: What about the Igenex test? Also, what about ditching the IDSA and adopting the ILADS guidelines for Lyme testing and treatment?
Do all the genotypes have the same ospA and will work with the antigen test?
Good question Thomas. Of course, the technology and knowledge exists -- so why don't they?
Do all the forms of the bacteria have ospA?
It seems like ticks are not the only vector pathway - some mites like bird mite species may be as well.
What needs to happen for an expanded array of testing? Can labs develop tests with the Bb strains that the ncbi has on file?
Dr. MacDonald: what do you think of the research done by James J Collins in Boston regarding using nano particles of silver against gram-negative bacteria? stm.sciencemag.org/content/5/190/190ra81.short
Do you mean ticks or humans?
