Free Chronic Lyme Summit!

[Remy]

There is a free, online chronic Lyme summit from April 4-11...they have a very extensive line up covering the gamut of topic including testing, treatment, and nutrition topics. There's even one on TCM that looks interesting to me!

Drs. Cowden, Minkoff and Horowitz, notably, are also giving presentations.

It should be a good one for anyone wanting to learn more about Lyme.

I signed up - thanks for the link! I watched the free bonus interview with Dr. Minkoff and he seemed to hit every nail on the head, summarizing all the main issues we face and real, science-based treatments that are available within 40 minutes or so. Then, I did a google search on him and found out he was cited for malpractice in 2001 for prescribing meds to a lady he had never met, as they were both in the same Scientology community. So, he's a Scientologist...

My grandma lives about 5 minutes from his office, so I'm considering placing a call. Do we know more about this guy? Anybody out there visited his clinic? @Cort, perhaps you've seen his name pop up before?

Gosh, that is kind of disturbing. Any chance he's left the church in the last 20 years? I hate to discriminate based on someone's religion, but Scientology is in a class by itself.

I'll be following up with his office sometime this week, and I intend on asking them straight up if he's still affiliated with Scientology and how his intake procedure works. I agree that one shouldn't discriminate based on religion, but it's a stretch giving Scientology that kind of credit. Thanks again for the link, Remy!

[Greg Zanchelli]

Been taking notes all week...really stellar stuff. Thanks again, @Remy

 

[Greg Zanchelli]

Sounds interesting, are you able to post some of your notes on this?

Cheers

I could probably just copy and paste them into this thread, but I don't know if that's the best way to organize them. Also, most are in short-hand and have reduced to what's relevant, or what I thought was relevant, to my particular situation. I'd be happy to email them as well

 

[Remy]

Just a short post on what you found of interest would be good. That should stimulate chat from there??

Yeah, I agree. It doesn't have to be anything comprehensive. Just anything that stuck out at you and made you say hmmmmm.....

I had a lot of those moments myself. In particular from the talk about the iSpot Lyme testing. That one is a stimulated cytokine test so it gives a baseline level of inflammation. He said if your baseline level is elevated (mine is!) it's unclear if you actually have Lyme, even if the Lyme result is positive because it might be a false positive based on an overall increased level of inflammation. In those cases, they start with interventions to reduce inflammtion and retest to see if anything changes rather than going straight on to antibiotics.
