Strikingly low incidence compared to what the official line is today. The 20% number comports more with the ILADS folk. Except what he had been...
So the timing dovetails with the case study of Lyme arthritis. But when did it first arrive in Europe? Why didn't he nail it as a causative agent...
I am a bit confused by this article, @chrisb. WB discovered the cause of Lyme arthritis in the US around 1980, right? That was from Benach's...
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...
Three words that strike fear into Science enthusiasts.;)
Truly at the epicenter. All the lines radiate out from your location. Cool on a curious level, but scary for you and your friends and family.
CD 57 abnormalities are not restricted to Lyme, so it reduces this metric utility. This is like CXCL13 in CSF of Lyme patients: there seems to be...
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...
