I have been reading through the question and answer thread on Dr Jaeger's FB group and thought you might like to read my notes.
H.E.L.P. Apheresis and ME
Q. How many ME patients have been treated?
A. One who was bedridden for 7 years who is now walking. (Dr Jaeger also mentioned another who required 14 treatments.) A further patient has just started treatment.
Q. Does it cure LC?
A. At the beginning, the first patients responded quickly and it appeared to be a cure; however, now 200 have been treated and the cure rate is 20%, with the majority finding it an effective therapy. It cures POTS, screen sensitivity, PEM, air hunger etc. It reduces inflammation massively.
There seem to be two issues in LC: micro clotting/inflammation/fibrin, and viral persistence. H.A tackles both, but only in the blood. It improves blood flow by 20% and rejuvenates organs, including the heart. It results in the healing of damaged organs.
For some patients a co-treatment is necessary to reduce viral persistence. This has just been started. Ivermectin high-dosed long-term, Autophagy, Clofoctol and MABs are currently showing results. The earlier it is treated, the better, as after several months, it becomes chronic. Fibrin becomes very hard with time and less responsive to treatment.
Q. I feel much worse after stress. Why?
A. Patients become strongly symptomatic after stress. It is caused by the micro-clots.
Micro clots are in ALL LC patients so it is not necessary for any test to show them prior to HA. It requires a confocal fluorescent microscope, which only a few researches or unis have, to detect micro-clots. There is no available test. Scientists are working on that.
Vaccine injured require H.A. as the vaccines are causing micro-clots. So far 7 Vax-LCs have been treated, it shows that generally they react even better/faster than classic LCs.
Yes, there were full recoveries, some are still in treatment, so too early to say for all who have been treated.
High levels of alpha 2 antiplasmin could be a key in the micro-clotting diagnostic? Prof Pretorius will publish on this soon.
Patient with LC improved on Valtrex.
Has anybody researched the possibility of downregulating the levels of alpha2-antiplasmin, since this seems to hold a key role in the dysfunction of fibrinolysis? (No answer)
Q. Why are the treatments spaced out?
A. Because on a sick person the treatment can take quite a toll (relapsing etc) and the regeneration needs time. Some relapse with each treatment, but the relapses are temporary. Some can only tolerate one treatment a week.
Q. Is there treatment required prior to HA?
A. Yes, blood thinners under supervision of a GP/PCP are recommended. Have a look at protocol 2.1 in the file section. People have started Help with and without prior protocols. Protocols seem to speed up regeneration massively
NB. It is not a miracle cure. It appeared to be from early results, but after 200 patients, about 20% make massive improvements. After 18 months- two years the disease becomes chronic and takes many more cycles to improve. Also, treatment with blood thinners prior to treatment makes a 'massive' difference to the success of the Apheresis. It is not sufficient alone and requires careful pacing, diet, and, sometimes, removal of autoantibodies.
Q. How variable are the responses?
A. It varies widely; if not to say extreme. Some walk out of the clinic after one treatment and 4 weeks later are at 100%. Others needed up to 14 treatments and/or many months. It obviously depends on several factors: degree of micro-clots, fibrinogen on the endothelium, inflammation cascade, viral persistence and sometimes autoantibodies
Q. What symptoms does it cure or improve?
A. POTS, Dysautonomia, Orthostatic Intolerance, PEM, light sensitivity, air-hunger etc. We can only repeat: It is not about symptoms, it is all about removing the root cause, microclots + fibrin, viral persistence, inflammation cascade and, in rare cases, autoantibodies
Question about lack of published paper:
See media reports:
https://apheresisassociation.org/media
A.It was not published as it is an opinion paper - patients were healed but there was no time to collect data prior and after treatment as the focus was solely to save patients' lives. And as the medical journal world has rules/standards and does not care about patients/lives saved, it was not published during corona times. Now this move cost thousands of lives and quite frankly we are beyond disgusted about this but there is nothing that can be done about this elitist arrogance. Several patients and organisations wrote to the journals, all letters and emails were ignored
