Kris Newby? In all seriousness, I also do not hold store with coincidence. It's a small, small world, especially when it comes to biological agents.
One item here is flat-out wrong. Whatever you may think of the Lyme controversy, even the most strident and conservative IDSA stalwarts will admit...
A US Lyme forum has picked up the story. Not a lot of posts yet, but still interesting. If anyone cares to see how the other side of the coin sees...
@Dechi, my infectious disease doctor wants me on it but I deferred for the time being until more results come in (plus I've just come off a long...
Are you suggesting it should not be important to patients that their disease be labeled as accurately as possible, and without mistakes that would...
Shame on them, too, if true. How many long-term patients would err that way?
Ok. Then arguably little excuse for referring to our disease as chronic fatigue? Different types of tests, if I recall. In a way, apples and...
Strangely, I suppose, most things associated with Columbia U leave me a bit frightened.
@ahimsa , I'm right there with you. I've written too much today and my brains are addled and I cannot tell if what I mean to impart with word, I...

A couple of observations: First, chronic Lyme is a poisoned diagnosis. Discard it. The question is does a patient have Lyme disease. Second, the...
They'd have to show something on their labs. If their labs show nothing suggestive of Lyme exposure, then imo they should not be diagnosed with...
Cannot - or should not - extrapolate from n=1. There are doctors projecting their biases through potential misdiagnoses in many medical realms....
@Dolphin , you really trust any researcher who refers to ME/CFS as chronic fatigue? :) Also, do you know he's not referring to Armin labs? He's...
One way to get a feel for its prevalence is by checking out canine incidence. This is one method by which scientists are mapping Lyme's spread...
Yeah, I'm going to have to call foul on that one. If it's true, it is true on an exceptional basis. What do you imagine one of the main points of...
Right, @Medfeb , and there's the rub. According to CDC criteria, these Lyme patients still qualify as having active Lyme, ie, they are CDC Lyme...
Where in the world did you get that idea? People who thought they had Lyme never had symptoms of Lyme? What? Of course chronic Lyme has to be...
Separate names with a comma.
