Fw: [NH] SunToads Health News 189. Mycoplasma: The Linking Pathogen inNeurosystemic Diseases

[Guest guest]

Biological Warfare Agents have been around our military programs for quite a

while. I sometimes wonder why MOST people do NOT succumb to the

infections--this is the part we should be concentrating on.

>PATHOGENIC MYCOPLASMA

>

>A Common Disease Agent Weaponised

>

>There are 200 species of Mycoplasma. Most are innocuous and do no harm;

only

>four or five are pathogenic. Mycoplasma fermentans (incognitus strain)

>probably comes from the nucleus of the Brucella bacterium. This disease

>agent is not a bacterium and not a virus; it is a mutated form of the

>Brucella bacterium, combined with a visna virus, from which the mycoplasma

>is extracted.

>

>The pathogenic Mycoplasma used to be very innocuous, but biological warfare

>research conducted between 1942 and the present time has resulted in the

>creation of more deadly and infectious forms of Mycoplasma. Researchers

>extracted this mycoplasma from the Brucella bacterium and actually reduced

>the disease to a crystalline form. They " weaponised " it and tested it on an

>unsuspecting public in North America.

>

>Dr Maurice Hilleman, chief virologist for the pharmaceutical company Merck

>Sharp & Dohme, stated that this disease agent is now carried by everybody

in

>North America and possibly most people throughout the world.

>

>Despite reporting flaws, there has clearly been an increased incidence of

>all the neuro/systemic degenerative diseases since World War II and

>especially since the 1970s with the arrival of previously unheard-of

>diseases like chronic fatigue syndrome and AIDS.

>

>According to Dr Shyh-Ching Lo, senior researcher at The Armed Forces

>Institute of Pathology and one of America's top mycoplasma researchers,

this

>disease agent causes many illnesses including AIDS, cancer, chronic fatigue

>syndrome, Crohn's colitis, Type I diabetes, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's

>disease, Wegener's disease and collagen-vascular diseases such as

rheumatoid

>arthritis and Alzheimer's.

>

>Dr Engel, who is with the US National Institutes of Health,

>Bethesda, land, stated the following at an NIH meeting on February 7,

>2000: " I am now of the view that the probable cause of chronic fatigue

>syndrome and fibromyalgia is the mycoplasma... "

>

>I have all the official documents to prove that mycoplasma is the disease

>agent in chronic fatigue syndrome/fibromyalgia as well as in AIDS, multiple

>sclerosis and many other illnesses. Of these, 80% are US or Canadian

>official government documents, and 20% are articles from peer-reviewed

>journals such as the Journal of the American Medical Association, New

>England Journal of Medicine and the Canadian Medical Association Journal.

>The journal articles and government documents complement each other.

>

>

>

>How the Mycoplasma Works

>

>The mycoplasma acts by entering into the individual cells of the body,

>depending upon your genetic predisposition.

>

>You may develop neurological diseases if the pathogen destroys certain

cells

>in your brain, or you may develop Crohn's colitis if the pathogen invades

>and destroys cells in the lower bowel.

>

>Once the mycoplasma gets into the cell, it can lie there doing nothing

>sometimes for 10, 20 or 30 years, but if a trauma occurs like an accident

or

>a vaccination that doesn't take, the mycoplasma can become triggered.

>

>Because it is only the DNA particle of the bacterium, it doesn't have any

>organelles to process its own nutrients, so it grows by uptaking pre-formed

>sterols from its host cell and it literally kills the cell; the cell

>ruptures and what is left gets dumped into the bloodstream.

>

>

>

>II & endash; CREATION OF THE MYCOPLASMA

>

>A Laboratory-Made Disease Agent

>

>Many doctors don't know about this mycoplasma disease agent because it was

>developed by the US military in biological warfare experimentation and it

>was not made public. This pathogen was patented by the United States

>military and Dr Shyh-Ching Lo. I have a copy of the documented patent from

>the US Patent Office.1

>

>All the countries at war were experimenting with biological weapons. In

>1942, the governments of the United States, Canada and Britain entered into

>a secret agreement to create two types of biological weapons (one that

would

>kill, and one that was disabling) for use in the war against Germany and

>Japan, who were also developing biological weapons. While they researched a

>number of disease pathogens, they primarily focused on the Brucella

>bacterium and began to weaponise it.

>

>>From its inception, the biowarfare program was characterised by continuing

>in-depth review and participation by the most eminent scientists, medical

>consultants, industrial experts and government officials, and it was

>classified Top Secret.

>

>The US Public Health Service also closely followed the progress of

>biological warfare research and development from the very start of the

>program, and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the National

>Institutes of Health (NIH) in the United States were working with the

>military in weaponising these diseases. These are diseases that have

existed

>for thousands of years, but they have been weaponised--which means they've

>been made more contagious and more effective. And they are spreading.

>

>The Special Virus Cancer Program, created by the CIA and NIH to develop a

>deadly pathogen for which humanity had no natural immunity (AIDS), was

>disguised as a war on cancer but was actually part of MKNAOMI.2 Many

members

>of the Senate and House of Representatives do not know what has been going

>on. For example, the US Senate Committee on Government Reform had searched

>the archives in Washington and other places for the document titled " The

>Special Virus Cancer Program: Progress Report No. 8 " , and couldn't find it.

>Somehow they heard I had it, called me and asked me to mail it to them.

>Imagine: a retired schoolteacher being called by the United States Senate

>and asked for one of their secret documents! The US Senate, through the

>Government Reform Committee, is trying to stop this type of government

>research.

>

>

>

>Crystalline Brucella

>

>The title page of a genuine US Senate Study, declassified on February 24,

>1977, shows that Merck, of the pharmaceutical company, Merck Sharp &

>Dohme (which now makes cures for diseases that at one time it created),

>reported in 1946 to the US Secretary of War that his researchers had

managed

> " for the first time " to " isolate the disease agent in crystalline form " .3

>

>They had produced a crystalline bacterial toxin extracted from the Brucella

>bacterium. The bacterial toxin could be removed in crystalline form and

>stored, transported and deployed without deteriorating. It could be

>delivered by other vectors such as insects, aerosol or the food chain (in

>nature it is delivered within the bacterium). But the factor that is

working

>in the Brucella is the mycoplasma.

>

>Brucella is a disease agent that doesn't kill people; it disables them.

But,

>according to Dr MacArthur of the Pentagon, appearing before a

>congressional committee in 1969,4 researchers found that if they had

>mycoplasma at a certain strength--actually, 10 to the 10th power (1010)--it

>would develop into AIDS, and the person would die from it within a

>reasonable period of time because it could bypass the natural human

>defences. If the strength was 108, the person would manifest with chronic

>fatigue syndrome or fibromyalgia. If it was 107, they would present as

>wasting; they wouldn't die and they wouldn't be disabled, but they would

not

>be very interested in life; they would waste away.

>

>Most of us have never heard of the disease brucellosis because it largely

>disappeared when they began pasteurising milk, which was the carrier. One

>salt shaker of the pure disease agent in a crystalline form could sicken

the

>entire population of Canada. It is absolutely deadly, not so much in terms

>of killing the body but disabling it.

>

>Because the crystalline disease agent goes into solution in the blood,

>ordinary blood and tissue tests will not reveal its presence. The

mycoplasma

>will only crystallise at 8.1 pH, and the blood has a pH of 7.4 pH. So the

>doctor thinks your complaint is " all in your head " .

>

>

>

>Crystalline Brucella and Multiple Sclerosis

>

>In 1998 in Rochester, New York, I met a former military man, PFC

>Bentley, who gave me a document and told me: " I was in the US Army, and I

>was trained in bacteriological warfare. We were handling a bomb filled with

>brucellosis, only it wasn't brucellosis; it was a Brucella toxin in

>crystalline form. We were spraying it on the Chinese and North Koreans. "

>

>He showed me his certificate listing his training in chemical, biological

>and radiological warfare. Then he showed me 16 pages of documents given to

>him by the US military when he was discharged from the service. They linked

>brucellosis with multiple sclerosis, and stated in one section: " Veterans

>with multiple sclerosis, a kind of creeping paralysis developing to a

degree

>of 10% or more disability within two years after separation from active

>service, may be presumed to be service-connected for disability

>compensation. Compensation is payable to eligible veterans whose

>disabilities are due to service. " In other words: " If you become ill with

>multiple sclerosis, it is because you were handling this Brucella, and we

>will give you a pension. Don't go raising any fuss about it. " In these

>documents, the government of the United States revealed evidence of the

>cause of multiple sclerosis, but they didn't make it known to the

public--or

>to your doctor.

>

>In a 1949 report, Drs Kyger and Haden suggested " the possibility that

>multiple sclerosis might be a central nervous system manifestation of

>chronic brucellosis " . Testing approximately 113 MS patients, they found

that

>almost 95% also tested positive for Brucella.5 We have a document from a

>medical journal, which concludes that one out of 500 people who had

>brucellosis would develop what they call neurobrucellosis; in other words,

>brucellosis in the brain, where the Brucella settles in the lateral

>ventricles--where the disease multiple sclerosis is basically located.6

>

>

>

>Contamination of Camp Detrick Lab Workers

>

>A 1948 New England Journal of Medicine report titled " Acute Brucellosis

>Among Laboratory Workers " shows us how actively dangerous this agent is.7

>The laboratory workers were from Camp Detrick, Frederick, land, where

>they were developing biological weapons. Even though these workers had been

>vaccinated, wore rubberised suits and masks and worked through holes in the

>compartment, many of them came down with this awful disease because it is

so

>absolutely and terrifyingly infectious.

>

>The article was written by Lt Calderone Howell, Marine Corps, Captain

>, Marine Corps, Lt , United States Naval Reserve, and

>Captain Henry Bookman. They were all military personnel engaged in making

>the disease agent Brucella into a more effective biological weapon.

>

>

>

>III & endash; COVERT TESTING OF MYCOPLASMA

>

>Testing the Dispersal Methods

>

>Documented evidence proves that the biological weapons they were developing

>were tested on the public in various communities without their knowledge or

>consent.

>

>The government knew that crystalline Brucella would cause disease in

humans.

>Now they needed to determine how it would spread and the best way to

>disperse it. They tested dispersal methods for Brucella suis and Brucella

>melitensis at Dugway Proving Ground, Utah, in June and September 1952.

>Probably, 100% of us now are infected with Brucella suis and Brucella

>melitensis.8

>

>Another government document recommended the genesis of open-air

>vulnerability tests and covert research and development programs to be

>conducted by the Army and supported by the Central Intelligence Agency.

>

>At that time, the Government of Canada was asked by the US Government to

>cooperate in testing weaponised Brucella, and Canada cooperated fully with

>the United States. The US Government wanted to determine whether mosquitoes

>would carry the disease and also if the air would carry it. A government

>report stated that " open-air testing of infectious biological agents is

>considered essential to an ultimate understanding of biological warfare

>potentialities because of the many unknown factors affecting the

degradation

>of micro-organisms in the atmosphere " .9

>Testing via Mosquito Vector in Punta Gorda, Florida

>

>A report from The New England Journal of Medicine reveals that one of the

>first outbreaks of chronic fatigue syndrome was in Punta Gorda, Florida,

>back in 1957.10 It was a strange coincidence that a week before these

people

>came down with chronic fatigue syndrome, there was a huge influx of

>mosquitoes.

>

>The National Institutes of Health claimed that the mosquitoes came from a

>forest fire 30 miles away. The truth is that those mosquitoes were infected

>in Canada by Dr Guilford B. at Queen's University. They were bred in

>Belleville, Ontario, and taken down to Punta Gorda and released there.

>

>Within a week, the first five cases ever of chronic fatigue syndrome were

>reported to the local clinic in Punta Gorda. The cases kept coming until

>finally 450 people were ill with the disease.

>

>

>

>Testing via Mosquito Vector in Ontario

>

>The Government of Canada had established the Dominion Parasite Laboratory

in

>Belleville, Ontario, where it raised 100 million mosquitoes a month. These

>were shipped to Queen's University and certain other facilities to be

>infected with this crystalline disease agent. The mosquitoes were then let

>loose in certain communities in the middle of the night, so that the

>researchers could determine how many people would become ill with chronic

>fatigue syndrome or fibromyalgia, which was the first disease to show.

>

>One of the communities they tested it on was the St Lawrence Seaway valley,

>all the way from Kingston to Cornwall, in 1984. They let out hundreds of

>millions of infected mosquitoes. Over 700 people in the next four or five

>weeks developed myalgic encephalomyelitis, or chronic fatigue syndrome.

>

>

>

>IV & endash; COVERT TESTING OF OTHER DISEASE AGENTS

>

>Mad Cow Disease/Kuru/CJD in the Fore Tribe

>

>Before and during World War II, at the infamous Camp 731 in Manchuria, the

>Japanese military contaminated prisoners of war with certain disease

agents.

>

>They also established a research camp in New Guinea in 1942. There they

>experimented upon the Fore Indian tribe and inoculated them with a

minced-up

>version of the brains of diseased sheep containing the visna virus which

>causes " mad cow disease " or Creutzfeldt & endash;Jakob disease.

>

>About five or six years later, after the Japanese had been driven out, the

>poor people of the Fore tribe developed what they called kuru, which was

>their word for " wasting " , and they began to shake, lose their appetites and

>die. The autopsies revealed that their brains had literally turned to mush.

>They had contracted " mad cow disease " from the Japanese experiments.

>

>When World War II ended, Dr Ishii Shiro--the medical doctor who was

>commissioned as a General in the Japanese Army so he could take command of

>Japan's biological warfare development, testing and deployment--was

>captured. He was given the choice of a job with the United States Army or

>execution as a war criminal. Not surprisingly, Dr Ishii Shiro chose to work

>with the US military to demonstrate how the Japanese had created mad cow

>disease in the Fore Indian tribe.

>

>In 1957, when the disease was beginning to blossom in full among the Fore

>people, Dr Carleton Gajdusek of the US National Institutes of Health headed

>to New Guinea to determine how the minced-up brains of the visna-infected

>sheep affected them. He spent a couple of years there, studying the Fore

>people, and wrote an extensive report. He won the Nobel Prize for

> " discovering " kuru disease in the Fore tribe.

>

>

>Testing Carcinogens over Winnipeg, Manitoba

>

>In 1953, the US Government asked the Canadian Government if it could test a

>chemical over the city of Winnipeg. It was a big city with 500,000 people,

>miles from anywhere. The American military sprayed this carcinogenic

>chemical in a 1,000%-attenuated form, which they said would be so watered

>down that nobody would get very sick; however, if people came to clinics

>with a sniffle, a sore throat or ringing in their ears, the researchers

>would be able to determine what percentage would have developed cancer if

>the chemical had been used at full strength.

>

>We located evidence that the Americans had indeed tested this carcinogenic

>chemical--zinc cadmium sulphide--over Winnipeg in 1953. We wrote to the

>Government of Canada, explaining that we had solid evidence of the spraying

>and asking that we be informed as to how high up in the government the

>request for permission to spray had gone. We did not receive a reply.

>

>Shortly after, the Pentagon held a press conference on May 14, 1997, where

>they admitted what they had done. Russo, writing for the Toronto

>Star11 from Washington, DC, reported the Pentagon's admission that in 1953

>it had obtained permission from the Canadian Government to fly over the

city

>of Winnipeg and spray out this chemical--which sifted down on kids going to

>school, housewives hanging out their laundry and people going to work. US

>Army planes and trucks released the chemical 36 times between July and

>August 1953. The Pentagon got its statistics, which indicated that if the

>chemical released had been full strength, approximately a third of the

>population of Winnipeg would have developed cancers over the next five

>years.

>

>One professor, Dr Hugh Fudenberg, MD, twice nominated for the Nobel Prize,

>wrote a magazine article stating that the Pentagon came clean on this

>because two researchers in Sudbury, Ontario--Don and his son, Bill

>--had been revealing this to the public. However, the legwork was done

>by other researchers!

>

>The US Army actually conducted a series of simulated germ warfare tests

over

>Winnipeg. The Pentagon lied about the tests to the mayor, saying that they

>were testing a chemical fog over the city, which would protect Winnipeg in

>the event of a nuclear attack.

>

>A report commissioned by US Congress, chaired by Dr Rogene , lists

>32 American towns and cities used as test sites as well.

>V & endash; BRUCELLA MYCOPLASMA AND DISEASE

>

>AIDS

>

>The AIDS pathogen was created out of a Brucella bacterium mutated with a

>visna virus; then the toxin was removed as a DNA particle called a

>mycoplasma. They used the same mycoplasma to develop disabling diseases

like

>MS, Crohn's colitis, Lyme disease, etc.

>

>In the previously mentioned US congressional document of a meeting held on

>June 9, 1969,12 the Pentagon delivered a report to Congress about

biological

>weapons. The Pentagon stated: " We are continuing to develop disabling

>weapons. " Dr MacArthur, who was in charge of the research, said: " We are

>developing a new lethal weapon, a synthetic biological agent that does not

>naturally exist, and for which no natural immunity could have been

>acquired. "

>

>Think about it. If you have a deficiency of acquired immunity, you have an

>acquired immunity deficiency. Plain as that. AIDS.

>

>In laboratories throughout the United States and in a certain number in

>Canada including at the University of Alberta, the US Government provided

>the leadership for the development of AIDS for the purpose of population

>control. After the scientists had perfected it, the government sent medical

>teams from the Centers for Disease Control--under the direction of Dr

>A. , their investigator into the 1957 chronic fatigue epidemic in

>Punta Gorda--during 1969 to 1971 to Africa and some countries such as

India,

>Nepal and Pakistan where they thought the population was becoming too

>large.13 They gave them all a free vaccination against smallpox; but five

>years after receiving this vaccination, 60% of those inoculated were

>suffering from AIDS. They tried to blame it on a monkey, which is nonsense.

>

>A professor at the University of Arkansas made the claim that while

studying

>the tissues of a dead chimpanzee she found traces of HIV. The chimpanzee

>that she had tested was born in the United States 23 years earlier. It had

>lived its entire life in a US military laboratory where it was used as an

>experimental animal in the development of these diseases. When it died, its

>body was shipped to a storage place where it was deep-frozen and stored in

>case they wanted to analyse it later. Then they decided that they didn't

>have enough space for it, so they said, " Anybody want this dead

chimpanzee? "

>and this researcher from Arkansas said: " Yes. Send it down to the

University

>of Arkansas. We are happy to get anything that we can get. " They shipped it

>down and she found HIV in it. That virus was acquired by that chimpanzee in

>the laboratories where it was tested.14

>Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/ Myalgic Encephalomyelitis

>

>Chronic fatigue syndrome is more accurately called myalgic

>encephalomyelitis. The chronic fatigue syndrome nomenclature was given by

>the US National Institutes of Health because it wanted to downgrade and

>belittle the disease.

>

>An MRI scan of the brain of a teenage girl with chronic fatigue syndrome

>displayed a great many scars or punctate lesions in the left frontal lobe

>area where portions of the brain had literally dissolved and been replaced

>by scar tissue. This caused cognitive impairment, memory impairment, etc.

>And what was the cause of the scarring? The mycoplasma. So there is very

>concrete physical evidence of these tragic diseases, even though doctors

>continue to say they don't know where it comes from or what they can do

>about it.

>

>Many people with chronic fatigue syndrome, myalgic encephalo-myelitis and

>fibromyalgia who apply to the Canada Pensions Plan Review Tribunal will be

>turned down because they cannot prove that they are ill. During 1999 I

>conducted several appeals to Canada Pensions and the Workers Compensation

>Board (WCB, now the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board) on behalf of

>people who have been turned down. I provided documented evidence of these

>illnesses, and these people were all granted their pensions on the basis of

>the evidence that I provided.

>

>In March 1999, for example, I appealed to the WCB on behalf of a lady with

>fibromyalgia who had been denied her pension back in 1993. The

vice-chairman

>of the board came to Sudbury to hear the appeal, and I showed him a number

>of documents which proved that this lady was physically ill with

>fibromyalgia. It was a disease that caused physical damage, and the disease

>agent was a mycoplasma. The guy listened for three hours, and then he said

>to me: " Mr , how is it I have never heard of any of this before? I

>said: " We brought a top authority in this area into Sudbury to speak on

this

>subject and not a single solitary doctor came to that presentation. "

>VI & endash; TESTING FOR MYCOPLASMA IN YOUR BODY

>

>Polymerase Chain Reaction Test

>

>Information is not generally available about this agent because, first of

>all, the mycoplasma is such a minutely small disease agent. A hundred years

>ago, certain medical theoreticians conceived that there must be a form of

>disease agent smaller than bacteria and viruses. This pathogenic organism,

>the mycoplasma, is so minute that normal blood and tissue tests will not

>reveal its presence as the source of the disease.

>

>Your doctor may diagnose you with Alzheimer's disease, and he will say:

> " Golly, we don't know where Alzheimer's comes from. All we know is that

your

>brain begins to deteriorate, cells rupture, the myelin sheath around the

>nerves dissolves, and so on. " Or if you have chronic fatigue syndrome, the

>doctor will not be able to find any cause for your illness with ordinary

>blood and tissue tests.

>

>This mycoplasma couldn't be detected until about 30 years ago when the

>polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test was developed, in which a sample of

>your blood is examined and damaged particles are removed and subjected to a

>polymerase chain reaction. This causes the DNA in the particles to break

>down. The particles are then placed in a nutrient, which causes the DNA to

>grow back into its original form. If enough of the substance is produced,

>the form can be recognised, so it can be determined whether Brucella or

>another kind of agent is behind that particular mycoplasma.

>

>

>

>Blood Test

>

>If you or anybody in your family has myalgic encephalomyelitis,

>fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis or Alzheimer's, you can send a blood

sample

>to Dr Les Simpson in New Zealand for testing.

>

>If you are ill with these diseases, your red blood cells will not be normal

>doughnut-shaped blood cells capable of being compressed and squeezed

through

>the capillaries, but will swell up like cherry-filled doughnuts which

cannot

>be compressed. The blood cells become enlarged and distended because the

>only way the mycoplasma can exist is by uptaking pre-formed sterols from

the

>host cell. One of the best sources of pre-formed sterols is cholesterol,

and

>cholesterol is what gives your blood cells flexibility. If the cholesterol

>is taken out by the mycoplasma, the red blood cell swells up and doesn't go

>through, and the person begins to feel all the aches and pains and all the

>damage it causes to the brain, the heart, the stomach, the feet and the

>whole body because blood and oxygen are cut off.

>

>And that is why people with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome have

>such a terrible time. When the blood is cut off from the brain, punctate

>lesions appear because those parts of the brain die. The mycoplasma will

get

>into portions of the heart muscle, especially the left ventricle, and those

>cells will die. Certain people have cells in the lateral ventricles of the

>brain that have a genetic predisposition to admit the mycoplasma, and this

>causes the lateral ventricles to deteriorate and die. This leads to

multiple

>sclerosis, which will progress until these people are totally disabled;

>frequently, they die prematurely. The mycoplasma will get into the lower

>bowel, parts of which will die, thus causing colitis. All of these diseases

>are caused by the degenerating properties of the mycoplasma.

>

>In early 2000, a gentleman in Sudbury phoned me and told me he had

>fibromyalgia. He applied for a pension and was turned down because his

>doctor said it was all in his head and there was no external evidence. I

>gave him the proper form and a vial, and he sent his blood to Dr Simpson to

>be tested. He did this with his family doctor's approval, and the results

>from Dr Simpson showed that only 4% of his red blood cells were functioning

>normally and carrying the appropriate amount of oxygen to his poor body,

>whereas 83% were distended, enlarged and hardened, and wouldn't go through

>the capillaries without an awful lot of pressure and trouble. This is the

>physical evidence of the damage that is done.

>

>

>

>ECG Test

>

>You can also ask your doctor to give you a 24-hour Holter ECG. You know, of

>course, that an electrocardiogram is a measure of your heartbeat and shows

>what is going on in the right ventricle, the left ventricle and so on.

Tests

>show that 100% of patients with chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia

>have an irregular heartbeat. At various periods during the 24 hours, the

>heart, instead of working happily away going " bump-BUMP, bump-BUMP " , every

>now and again goes " buhbuhbuhbuhbuhbuhbuhbuhbuh " . The T-wave (the waves are

>called P, Q, R, S and T) is normally a peak, and then the wave levels off

>and starts with the P-wave again. In chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia

>patients, the T-wave flattens off, or actually inverts. That means the

blood

>in the left ventricle is not being squeezed up through the aorta and around

>through the body.

>

>My client from Sudbury had this test done and, lo and behold, the results

>stated: " The shape of T and S-T suggests left ventricle strain pattern,

>although voltage and so on is normal. " The doctor had no clue as to why the

>T-wave was not working properly. I analysed the report of this patient who

>had been turned down by Canada Pensions and sent it back to them. They

wrote

>back, saying: " It looks like we may have made a mistake. We are going to

>give you a hearing and you can explain this to us in more detail. "

>

>So it is not all in your imagination. There is actual physical damage to

the

>heart. The left ventricle muscles do show scarring. That is why many people

>are diagnosed with a heart condition when they first develop fibromyalgia,

>but it's only one of several problems because the mycoplasma can do all

>kinds of damage.

>

>

>

>Blood Volume Test

>

>You can also ask your doctor for a blood volume test. Every human being

>requires a certain amount of blood per pound of body weight, and it has

been

>observed that people with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, multiple

>sclerosis and other illnesses do not have the normal blood volume their

body

>needs to function properly. Doctors aren't normally aware of this.

>

>This test measures the amount of blood in the human body by taking out 5

cc,

>putting a tracer in it and then putting it back into the body. One hour

>later, take out 5 cc again and look for the tracer. The thicker the blood

>and the lower the blood volume, the more tracer you will find.

>

>The analysis of one of my clients stated: " This patient was referred for

red

>cell mass study. The red cell volume is 16.9 ml per kg of body weight. The

>normal range is 25 to 35 ml per kg. This guy has 36% less blood in his body

>than the body needs to function. " And the doctor hadn't even known the test

>existed.

>

>If you lost 36% of your blood in an accident, do you think your doctor

would

>tell you that you are alright and should just take up line dancing and get

>over it? They would rush you to the nearest hospital and start transfusing

>you with blood. These tragic people with these awful diseases are

>functioning with anywhere from 7% to 50% less blood than their body needs

to

>function.

>VII & endash; UNDOING THE DAMAGE

>

>The body undoes the damage itself. The scarring in the brain of people with

>chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia will be repaired. There is cellular repair

>going on all the time. But the mycoplasma has moved on to the next cell.

>

>In the early stages of a disease, doxycycline may reverse that disease

>process. It is one of the tetracycline antibiotics, but it is not

>bactericidal; it is bacteriostatic--it stops the growth of the mycoplasma.

>And if the mycoplasma growth can be stopped for long enough, then the

immune

>system takes over.

>

>Doxycycline treatment is discussed in a paper by mycoplasma expert

Professor

>Garth Nicholson, PhD, of the Institute for Molecular Medicine.15 Dr

>Nicholson is involved in a US$8-million mycoplasma research program funded

>by the US military and headed by Dr Engel of the NIH. The program

is

>studying Gulf War veterans, 450 of them, because there is evidence to

>suggest that Gulf War syndrome is another illness (or set of illnesses)

>caused by mycoplasma.

>Opinions expressed in material written by others are their opinions, not

We

>We are aware that there are often volumes of intentional disinformation and

>Occasionally we are blasted by a venomous reader shrieking nasty remarks
