Why some people with Lyme disease fail to recover after antibiotic treatment is a question that touches not only on them but on other commonly post-infectious illnesses like ME/CFS, FM and POTS.
A study may have identified why some people with Lyme disease stay ill after being treated
Further work is needed but an answer could be at hand. Not only did a recent study identify an immune hole which may be allowing the Lyme bacteria to proliferate during treatment, but it pointed to a new treatment option that no one had been considered before Plus it may have also laid the groundwork for a better diagnostic test.
The fact that all of this came from a small non-profit indicates that you don’t need to be big to potentially make a major difference in a nasty disease. Find out about all that and a similar study underway in ME/CFS in a Simmaron Research Foundation sponsored blog
Post Treatment Lyme Disease Unmasked? Immune Hole in the Illness Identified
Appreciate your amazing work Cort! Also thank you so much for live tweeting the Stanford Symposium this past week – it made me feel like I was right there!
I don’t have a Twitter account so apologies for coming to this platform to ask you this question, as I would have asked on there. As someone who’s only been in this field since 2017 (when my illness came on), I’m curious to hear your two cents after this last week on where you think research/collaboration for CFS/ME is today and how it compares to the last 10-20 years, since I value your opinion as someone who has been engaged in this field for a long time.
Do you sense we are close / have a high level of confidence progress is being made?
Thanks for any input Cort!
My husband was diagnosed with ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) when he was 61 years old 4 years ago. The Rilutek (riluzole) did very little to help him. The medical team did even less. His decline was rapid and devastating. His arms weakened first, then his hands and legs. Last year, a family friend told us about Rich Herbs Foundation (RHF) and their successful ALS TREATMENT, we visited their website www. richherbsfoundation. com and ordered their ALS/MND Formula, i am happy to report the treatment effectively treated and reversed his Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), most of the symptoms stopped, he is able to walk and able to ride his treadmill again, he is pretty active now.
My Wife was diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease) when she was 72 years old 4 years ago. The Rilutek (riluzole) did very little to help her. The medical team did even less. Her decline was rapid and devastating. Her arms weakened first, then her hands and legs. Last year, a family friend told us about Organic Herbal clinic and their successful ALS TREATMENT, we visited their website www. organicherbalclinic. com and ordered their ALS Formula, i am happy to report the treatment effectively treated and reversed her Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), most of the symptoms stopped, she is able to walk and eat well, sleep well and exercise regularly., she is pretty active now and her attitude is extremely positive.
My first symptoms of ALS/MND occurred in 2011 but were diagnosed in 2013. I had severe symptoms ranging from shortness of breath, balance problems, couldn’t walk without a walker or a power chair, difficulty swallowing, and fatigue. I was given medications that helped, but only for a short period. In 2020, while researching ALS, I found a multivitamin herbal cure with so many great reviews, and without a doubt, I immediately ordered the formulas. I wasn’t sure if it was a permanent cure, but the result I received from my neurologist has shown that all my symptoms have been fully eliminated. I am back to my store. Since the 2020 pandemic, after using the herbs, my ALS recovery story has changed many people’s lives who thought there was no true cure for MND. If you or someone you know have ALS or any MND disease and would like to see results like mine, contact the multivitamincare .org
