https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2021/07/210701120703.htm New research has shown that many of the symptoms in fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) are caused by antibodies that increase the activity of pain-sensing nerves throughout the body. The results show that fibromyalgia is a disease of the...

Indeed. I hope this doesn't sound wrong, but this pandemic could represent an opportunity for us. Who's gonna deny corona funding, even if it's a post corona infection syndrome. Or whatever you call it. We have to surf the corona wave.

@Abdallah A lot of supplements seem to work in the beginning but the positive effects tend to decrease or stop after some days/weeks. I've recently started taking agmatine and it seems to help clearly. Hopefully the effects will last.

The results are very spectacular; in the majority of the patients the pain is completly gone or almost completly gone if metformin (500 mg, 2 a day) is combined with standard treatment (e.g gabapentine, amitryptiline,..) However, this study quoted another study saying the incidence of FM is...

(Prof Carmine Pariante, Kings College London) This is the youtube presentation of this study. Unfortunately he doesn't mention his kynurenine or tryptophan findings in this presentation... If anyone has the article, I'd like to know the details of kynurenine / tryptophan findings.

The Effects of Noninvasive Vagus Nerve Stimulation on Fatigue and Immune Responses in Patients With Primary Sjögren's Syndrome. Tarn J1, Legg S1, Mitchell S1, Simon B2, Ng WF1. Author information Abstract OBJECTIVES: Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) sufferers have rated chronic fatigue as the...

So, what if Borrelia is doing the same EBV seems to be doing...... Could explain chronic lyme symptoms etc.

Keep in mind that fast filling with iv fluids like Na Cl 0.9% causes hemodilution and gets your hematocrit more towards 30%. The optimal oxygen delivery of blood is achieved with a hematocrit of around 30%, because you have a good balance between rheology (viscosity; the lower the Hct, the...

In Belgium doctors prescribe them like candy. GPs are "advised" by pharma reps to give avelox as a first line treatment for pneumonia. Many do so. Ciproxine and tavanic are very easily prescribed for cystitis/ pyelonefritis, also by specialists.

BTW, OspA is a protein essential for maintenance of the spirochete within the tick environment, so its even rather suprising to be found in chronic patients since one would expect it to be down regulated by that time. So maybe the actual group of chronic patients with active Bb infection is ( a...

Hey, I've been using agmatine for quite a while now. I does seem to help with the fatigue without giving that wired feeling. What is it doing to you? I take 1g (2 capsules) 2 times a day. Funny thing is this seems to be the only supplement that's cheaper here in Belgium than in the USA...

Wouldn't it just be easier to take a silicon supplement? Instead of drinking expensive water, which will probably have far less silicic acid anyway. For Exemple; JarroSil is a patent pending Activated Silicon formula supplying stabilized molecular clusters of silicic acid. Stabilized silicic...

I can't use this to transfer money from Belgium. There is someting missing in the BIC. It should be 8 to 11 letters. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_9362) For example: http://swift-code.bankslookup.com/BIC/Spain/MADRID/BANCO%20SANTANDER%20S.A.

I'm positive for the LTT and negative for another test, but don't know wether it is western blot or antibodies, should look it up. DML starts wich antibiotics untill you have some degree of functioning (like part time working), then he continuous with samento/ banderol ( + biofilm defense ). My...

I'm in treatment with DML and I'm positive for Borrelia (LTT) and Bartonella. I' don't have fluctuating symptoms, they do not migrate through my body, i don't have artritis or any kind of pain, I never had a ECM of Bartonella stripes. In other words I'm not what you would call a typical lyme...

I have Bartonella and Lyme and I've been taking Clarithromycin 500 1/d for about 2 months now. In the beginning i had a mild herx raction; some headache and some joint pain, wich i usually don't have. Those symptoms faded away after couple of weeks. I am, however, improving smal step by step. I...

3 mg, one hour before bedtime. Now brand (iherb).

It's also KDM who's treating me. It's indeed Kirkman Biofilm Defense he prescribed. PQQ is a vitamin like substance which supports the mitochondria. http://www.iherb.com/Kirkman-Labs-Biofilm-Defense-60-Capsules/38176

Hi Filfla, Did he prescribe any biofilm destroying things for you? I intitially tested negative for Borrelia and positive for Bartonella, about 1.5 year ago. This month i tested positive for Borrelia on LTT. (now i gonna start on clarithromycine 500mg, biofilm defense, PQQ, and berberine)

I recently tested positive for Borrelia by kdm. I was allready diagnosed with Bartonella about a year ago. I haven't got his letter here with me, and i'm still ordering things (Biofim defense was out of stock at iherb...), so i should read again what doses to take in what amounts, but this is...

Another tip: If the injection hurts, even with xylo, warm the hydroxo up to bodytemperature. I just put it in a cup of hot water for 10 min. (wouldn't recommand microwave ;-) ) Makes a lot of difference to me. If there would be any doubt; the hydroxo 10 mg is twice a week for ... well kinda...

I also avoid MSG (monosodium glutamate) like the plague. This means eating home cooked unprocessed foods for the most part. Manufacturers use a ton of different names to hide it, and even "natural flavors" must be considered suspect. There's an article on pubmed about MSG and fibro...

I take the train to Brussels Nord and then the train to Vilvoorde (direction Antwerp). Then you have to take bus 47 indeed. When you leave the station of Vilvoorde bus 47 is on your left, it's a different bus (MIVB, orange and grey ) then the others (De Lijn, jellow and white). You stop at...

No, I've allready been diagnosed with Bartonella by dr.DML and I'm on rifampicin and lymecyclin currently.

I'd go for intracellular. Because; -it's more logical; it's harder for the immune system to get them, making them chronic more easily -lately he's really getting into Bartonella, which is intracellular -if it was 'just' intercellular, i don't think he would emphasize it that much Anyway, i see...

I've put below a link of an article about a specific HERV and MS, some lines from the article and an image expressing the general hypothesis. Since MS is kind of put forward as a possible model for ME, this could be relevant. Anyway, i think it's interesting...

I gonna quote from the article; So the antibodies that you make to attack HERV proteins also (accidently) attack other cells/parts in the body. At least, this is how is see it.

have fun
