> BB seriously not trying to be uncivil or anything but is there nothing that is not lyme related? If so most on the board have lymes. I'm off this thread which was tivastal
That's ok.
Fact: People with MS have recovered, and their MRIs recovered as well, when treated with antibiotics. Likely a minority, but it happens, what can I say? And who knows, maybe not a minority. How we would know? No one has ever looked into it.
I just think it is better for a random reader to see as many pieces of a topic as possible, rather than half pieces or half truths.
Most of everything under the sun is probably not Lyme related.
In my studies on the lives and stories of Lyme patients, I have come to believe that many more in the psychiatric care arena are ill with infectious diseases than anyone has a clue of. A lot. Does that mean everyone here? Obviously no. I couldn't begin to make an estimate of what percentage here might have Lyme or Lyme-like, but for sure it is more than just you and me. That I have zero doubt.
I've noticed over the last few weeks as I talk here about various causes of depression, with Lyme being one of the more frequent ones, I get almost hostile responses from people. From you. Even SLS gets hostile at my observations. That is very unlike him.
I was talking to my spouse and a friend about it all. They said people don't like to hear the truth. People don't like to have their boats rocked. They would rather have them sink than admit maybe they missed something. That makes sense. I couldn't think of any reason myself why people here get hostile at learning new stuff.
And yeah I'm sorry I am off the thread to.
