I read so much that I forget sometimes where I read stuff, but seems to me I read that many people with CFIDS are testing positive to Lyme without noticing any ticks or any typical lyme-type symptoms. I was going to follow up and research it some more, but haven't taken the time. I'd say, if the insurance pays for all or part of it, why not? I had Colorado tick fever and never noticed an imbedded tick so the doc didn't think to test for it until I'd almost run the course.

Guest guest Posted August 1, 2001 Report Share Posted August 1, 2001 Hi Nina, I've been wanting to ask someone this question and here's my chance. My understanding is that the Rife machines are designed to kill pathogens. Once these pathogens are killed, they must still be detoxified by the body. Is this correct? And do these machines have any way of assisting in the detoxification of the pathogens they kill? I was also diagnosed with Lyme disease. I was on antibiotics for a year. Since coming off of them I have been in worse shape than ever before in my life, almost completely bedridden. A recent Biological Terrain Assessment showed that every organ in my body is under extreme stress. Although I have done multiple cleanses, I can feel congestion in my liver and kidneys. My system seems to be overloaded with toxins and has so far been unable to move them out efficiently. I'm on supplements and homeopathics to support drainage and I had a treatment last week with a cold laser, and that provided the first real relief in the past few months. But the toxicity backed up again in only a few days. I will have another treatment in 2 days. Meanwhile, I'm wondering whether the Rife technology might have a place in my recovery protocol. Thanks.

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2001 Report Share Posted August 2, 2001 Preliminary in vitro and in vivo findings of Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment______________ in experimental Bb infection Pavia, PhD, NY Medical College School of Medicine; NYCOM Microbiology and Immunodiagnostic Laboratory of NYIT In these studies, we evaluated repeated HBOT for its ability to kill Bb in vitro, and in vivo, in a murine model of Lyme disease. Several North American tick-derived and recently obtained patient isolates were studied separately in our assay systems. To test for in vitro susceptibility, one-half to one million Bb were cultured in a small volume (0.1 - 0.2 ml) of BSK media using small snap-cap test tubes. With the caps removed, these cultures were then exposed, for one hour (twice daily for 2 consecutive days), to pure, filtered oxygen pressurized to 2-3 times normal atmospheric conditions. This was achieved using a specially constructed, miniaturized cylindrical chamber (length = 12 inches; diameter = 8 inches), equipped to accept any pressurized gas mixture through its portal opening. After the final HBOT, all cultures received an additional 0.5 ml of BSK media (making the final volume now 0.6 - 0.7 ml), and their caps were snapped shut. Matching control cultures received no HBOT. All cultures were incubated at 33oC for 2-3 days and were examined microscopically for live Bb. Our results showed that 14 of 17 strains of Bb had their growth inhibited by 33-94%, while there was little or no inhibition of 3 Bb strains. For the in vivo studies, separate groups of C3H or CD1 mice were infected intradermally with 100,000 Bb. Two to 4 weeks later, one group of infected mice received two, 1.0-1.5 hour HBO exposures, for two consecutive or alternating days. The treated mice were sacrificed one day after the last treatment, and extract cutlures of their urinary bladders were prepared in BSK media. It was found that no Bb grew out of 80% of these extract cultures, whereas live Bb organisms were recoverable from 90% of extract cultures prepared from matched, infected control mice not treated with HBO. These data suggest that HBOT may be considered as a clinically useful form of adjunct therapy in the treatment of Lyme disease. Lyme's Disease I have been disabled for close to 8 years with CFS and was recently diagnosed with lyme's based upon one of the IGENEX tests. Any advice on how I can beat this critter?

You ask, " Once these pathogens are killed, they must still be detoxified by the body. Is this correct? And do these machines have any way of assisting in the detoxification of the pathogens they kill? " My short answers to you are " Yes " and " Not really. " For those on this list who are unfamiliar with the technology, a little background would be helpful. Rife frequency technology, developed in the 1930s by Royal Rife, is wonderfully effective for destroying pathogenic microbes. It works on the principle of resonant frequency. Every living organism has a rate of oscillation or resonant frequency-the number of cycles per second at which it vibrates. Like the soprano who shatters a glass with her single, pure, focused tone, the Beam Ray emitted the resonant frequency at which each microbe vibrated, which burst them apart. After conducting thousands of successful tests with infected animals, Rife was joined by some of the most prestigious doctors and clinicians in the country who supported him financially, substantiated his findings, and used the Beam Ray on human beings with the same high success rate. This was done without poisonous drugs, invasive surgery, high medical bills, or unhealthy dependence on doctors. The University of Southern California School of Medicine sponsored a 3½ month treatment program for 16 cancer patients, with a 100% remission rate. Financial backers offered Rife more money for his research, and clinicians from all over the country ordered Beam Ray devices to use for their patients. Doctors as far away as Europe sent Rife notarized affidavits stating the effectiveness of the treatments. After many decades of suppression by the pharmaceutical-medical industry, the technology is enjoying a renaissance. Now to address the issue of detox. Rife technology devices focus on shattering microbes, and don't seem to move lymph tissue that well because the tissue is so dense compared to other parts of the body. After you shatter or immobilize these microbes, there are corpses and mycotoxins all through the bloodstream and lymph system which must be eliminated. Drinking water is crucial to lower the ratio of poisons in the system. (With people who have sluggish lymph systems and naturally retain water, the amount to drink will have to be less than the common ratio of 1 fluid ounce for every 2 pounds of body weight.) Massage, using a rebounder, swimming, and walking are all good ways of moving this junk through the system. There is also a device called the Photon Sound Beam that is designed to work on lymph tissue, and people who use the device have found it to be very effective. For newcomers, I would suggest the following website for the Rife technology: http://kalamark.com/devices/ This machine is considered by many to be the best one on the market, especially for the price. And here's a website for the Photon Sound Beam: http://homestead.juno.com/askjane/techinfo.html As you peruse these websites, know that no medical claims are allowed to be made for these devices.

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2001 Report Share Posted August 2, 2001 Dear Nina, I just would like to clarify that the Rife frequency machine emitted two very high frequencies, megacycles, slightly different, and then the two were heterodyned (beat together). The difference between the two frequencies is called the resultant frequency, and that was what was induced into the tissue. This information is from Royal Rife's hand written lab notes. Nikola Tesla was the designer of the frequency generators. A very similar principle was designed by Tesla for Lakhovsky, who used inert gas in metal rings of different sizes to broadcast a full body wave into the patient, with spectacular results.

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2001 Report Share Posted August 3, 2001 Lyme Disease Lyme disease is a serious and often devastating illness. The usual cause is the bite from a tick infected with the Borrelia burgdorferi spirochete carried by mice, deer and other warm-blooded animals. The B. burgdorferi spirochete is an anaerobic bacterium. That is, it cannot exist in oxygen. Reproduction of the spirochetes is thought to be inhibited by an increase in O2 levels. Oxygen at an elevated partial-pressure effectively saturates all tissues and crosses the blood-brain barrier. The benefits of such penetration depend upon the sensitivity of the spirochete to the elevated levels of O2. Multiple Sclerosis, fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome are among many conditions in which symptoms closely resemble Lyme disease, thereby making Lyme difficult to diagnose. Fibroblasts tend to protect the spirochete against antibiotics making a diagnosis and treatment plan complicated and individualized. Living spirochetes have been found in a muscle biopsy after a year of IV antibiotic treatments. Most patients treated with Hyperbaric Oxygen (HBO) experience an exacerbation of symptoms called a Herxheimer response, believed to be caused by the toxins unleashed as the spirochetes die off. The Herxheimer usually diminishes in severity. Many patients have reported a significant (sometimes even total) decrease in symptoms over a period of time, even after stopping antibiotic treatments. Prior to the initiation of HBO treatments, patients must have a physician's order, sign a waiver and release, complete a symptom survey, and are oriented to the treatment. 30 to 40 treatments, 1 to 2 times per day, are the current recommendation. With the exception of temporary ear discomfort as explained in the Hyperbaric literature, Lyme patients may also experience the temporary Herxheimer. No other adverse reactions are expected. Patients are requested to continue follow-up care with their personal physicians. Since HBO treatment is still in the experimental stages for Lyme, insurance reimbursements may or may not be available. Reference: The Text Book Of Hyperbaric Oxygen Medicine, By K.K.

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2001 Report Share Posted August 3, 2001 Did Tesla actually collaborate with Rife, or did Rife simply use a design of Tesla's which happened to be available? I've seen many books on Tesla, but am not aware of one which discusses his activities in the health field. Does anyone know if one exists? I've been told that he had some involvement in oxygen or ozone therapy also.

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2001 Report Share Posted August 5, 2001 Dear Dave, There is a great deal of information on Tesla that is not generally available. He started the Tesla Ozone Company in 1900, manufacturing ozone generators and ozonated olive oil for sale to doctors. He designed circuits for medical therapy equipment for s Lakhovsky and Royal Rife. He was good friends with Walter , probably the most advanced theoretical physicist of all time (all without training in physics). Many of the most brilliat lights of the first quarter of the century used to meet over at Walter 's palatial home and brainstorm. Mostof these same men have been marginalized, bankrupted and written out of the histroy books by the machinations of the greedy captains of industry, who put profit above the welfare of mankind. Contact the International tesla Society in Colorado Springs. They have a lot of good information on Tesla. Read The Secret of Life by s Lakhovsky, 1935 ISBN 0-939482-08-8 There is more that is unknown about these pioneers than is known. Best of Health!

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2002 Report Share Posted April 5, 2002 Steve, Please relay more info on her condition. Obviously she sounds to be emotionally at a crisis. What are these late symptoms, joint, soft tissue, fatigue,?. I have never treated a Lymes patient, but the natural therapies that are effective on inflammatory conditions may help if inflammatory symptoms are prevalent. As a suggestion, you might do a sed rate and/or CRP as a baseline and redo the test(s) periodically to monitor your management. But tell us more and we might banter on this a bit.

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2005 Report Share Posted February 22, 2005 Thanks for your response . I was not really looking for a debate. I am posting this here because I think more data is needed, and this is a good group for gathering that, if some people on this list are interested in trying the Salt/C experimental protocol as a possible CFS-FM protocol. Salt/C helps people with Lyme, who have symptoms very similar and in some cases identical to CFS-FM. The top three symptoms of Lyme are fatigue, memory problems, and light sensitivity. The next symptoms are sound sensitivity, taste and smell abnormalities, increased irritability, word reversal, and spatial disorientation. And there are literally dozens of other symptoms, virtually all of which match-up with CFS-FM, including the severe muscle pain, tender points in some people, vision disturbances, etc. Fluctuation in symptoms from day to day is common, and people with Lyme have a short-term symptom aggravation with antibiotics. Everyone with Lyme has unique constellations of symptoms, no two people are having the identical experience. Exercise is impossible with Lyme because the bugs don't like oxygen so they douse you with neurotoxins after exercise, the Lyme herx. And the HPA axis is depressed with Lyme, and there are often thyroid problems and people get cold a lot, and most 'PWL' get adrenal exhaustion eventually, after progressing through several stages of the disease. And the digestive system gets disbyosis, and on and on. Any of this sound familiar? Salt/C reverses most of this, and for some people, all of it. Maybe there is some other explanation, maybe the Salt/C doesn't really treat Lyme, maybe some other cause is involved in both conditions. That is certainly possible. Or maybe Lyme is just misunderstood, or maybe it just an unusual co-infection of whatever is causing CFS. Or perhaps Lyme is just an additional infection that some PWCs have, maybe that is my situation, because I definitely fit well into both sets of criteria (CFS-FM and Lyme). I don't know the answers to any of these issues, but clearly the Salt/C is reversing these symptoms for many people, so I think this is a treatment worthy of exploration. That was all I am trying to say. I am not the best person to defend the popular claims about Lyme. Others are far more knowledgeable. But I have read enough to know that there are responses to all the issues you have raised. I will make a weak attempt to answer some of these. You have made me think, and I see that there ARE some unanswered issues to address. But I hope you will see that my main objective here is not to prove whether or not Lyme is what some people say it is, but rather to test Salt/C for CFS-FM. >> Does a major proportion of CFS/FM sufferers have Lyme disease. Probably not. 1. CFS/FM (ME) is worldwide. The occurrence of Lyme's disease is not. An illness like Lyme has been known in Europe for over 100 years. The first report of a tick-induced ECM rash characteristic of 'Lyme' was in Wisconsin in 1970. Connecticut was just the location of the first major reported outbreak, in 1975. The disease has probably been established world-wide for centuries. However, there may have been triggers for the modern resurgence. Perhaps one of the co-infections identified by the people at www.LymePhotos.com <http://www.lymephotos.com/> is the actual trigger. They are the originators of Salt/C. For more info on the history, symptoms and treatment of the NE version of Lyme, see: http://library.lymenet.org/domino/file.nsf/bbf2f15334c1f2858525661300031 7cc/87e8dfed931381b7852567c70012001f?OpenDocument There is a strong belief in the Lyme community that the 1975 outbreak was caused by a weaponization of the pre-existing Borrelia organism, conducted a few miles off shore from Old Lyme, Connecticut at an Army Bio-warfare research laboratory, which was in fact, at the time studying the bacteria (Read " Lab 257 " ). This could explain the apparent increase in virulence of the organism starting around that time. (Sounds like the mycoplasma story all over again.). So the evidence is that this is an old organism, the illness is well established, but it just got a lot worse in 1975, when the Army was studying it. The Army did not invent this, clearly, but they may have had a hand in worsening the situation. Or maybe not. But anyway, it IS worldwide now. 2. Even in those areas where the occurrence of Lyme's disease is highest, like in parts of Connecticut, the rate of CFS/FM occurrence is not higher. My first thought is that this doesn't mean much because the NE is the only place where people get accurately diagnosed with Lyme, so of course the CFS/FM or any alternate diagnoses would be normal there, or even lower. Are there maps of CFS infection rates? I have not seen the evidence that this is evenly spread across the country, this is news to me. Where is the map for CFS? I didn't think anyone tracked that data. I would love to see that. I do know that there have been outbreak zones for CFS. In fact, I spent time in Tahoe in 1982, and have wondered if I 'picked something up' there during the 'Incline Village' outbreak. By the way, did you know that the Tahoe area is now known to have a Lyme infestation problem? Much worse there than almost elsewhere in the western US? I read that recently in a Tahoe Lyme bulletin. And as far as the Lyme Disease risk map, from the CDC. That is interesting to look at, until you realize that many of the areas of risk correspond with areas of population. The only exception is that there is more Lyme in the South, where there are more trees, and more ticks. For what it's worth, here is the CDC map: http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dvbid/lyme/riskmap.htm You may have a point here, but until I see a map of CFS I don't think we will know for sure. Also, I don't entirely trust the CDC map because of the fact that Lyme is so under-reported. But I will admit, this could be an argument against a strong Lyme-CFS connection. 3. You need to have deer carrying ticks, which rub off on the shrubs deer were eating, in order to get Lyme's disease. Given the number of PWC's who live in metropolitan areas, it's unlikely that they've contracted CFS/FM through untreated Lyme's disease. That has been debunked in the Lyme community. I don't know if the debunking is accurate, but for the record this is controversial. See page 5 of this newsletter. http://www.pacificsites.com/~dglaser/lyme/ARGFocus_October2003Newsletter 2.pdf I will admit that this newsletter is a Lyme community oriented position, and is not a scientific, peer-reviewed source. But they are quoting research and not just anecdotes. And although it conflicts with some official information, there are indications that the official position of the CDC is becoming softer. 4. And even if they did, the spirochetes in the bloodstream which occur with Lyme's disease, are still treatable with antibiotics. There's still no indication that CFS/FM can be effectively treated by any antibiotic, antiviral or combination of antibiotics and antivirals, with the possible exception of ampligen. My own experience with antibiotics was the same when I had CFS/FM as after I tested positive for Lyme, I tried them after both diagnosis. And both times, they worked for a while, after I got through the herxheimer, but then they stopped working after a few months. This is the experience of most people with chronic, late-stage Lyme, as much as with CFS. Some with early-stage Lyme do get better with antibiotics though. But I also know a few people who got over CFS with natural antibiotics, and I believe Nicolson has had some success with antibiotics for CFS, when mycoplasma was involved. I have not heard of Ampligen being used for people with Lyme. Now THAT would be interesting.. 5. Given the propensity of PWC's to have orthostatic intolerence, ingesting large amounts of salt is not advisable and can be dangerous. There are clinical trials now where PWC's are given intravenous saline solutions for orthostatic intolerence, but again, it's in the trial phase, and only for the symptoms of orthostatic intolernce, not other fatigue, fever, joint pain or other CFS/FM symptoms. The idea that salt is dangerous is controversial. I thought that orthostatic tolerance is caused by a LACK of salt, or poor sodium regulation, so I don't see how this contraindicates taking salt. I think it says PWC NEED more salt. Am I missing something here? I have orthostatic intolerance and I have taken a lot of salt with no harmful effects, other than the expected herx at first. I have noticed other changes on salt that I believe are incident to my body becoming hydrated for the first time in many years. Like muscles taking shape again, etc. Anyway, the Salt/C treatment is well supported by modern ideas about salt. The following link from the Salt Institute says that humans can tolerate up to 30g of salt per day safely. That is double the maximum amount recommended for the Salt/C protocol. http://www.saltinstitute.org/28.html 6. Even Dr. ing had to back off of his claims for the effecacy of large doses of Vitamin C, which recent studies have shown, doesn't help prevent getting colds either, so it's limited as an antiviral. I can't speak for Dr ing, and I don't personally use his claims about Vitamin C. Yes, some advocates of Vitamin C in the alt med community rely heavily on Dr. ing for their claims. So I don't disagree with the point about no studies proving the validity of his claim, but I don't think the effect of the Vitamin C with the Salt is the same as what ing was promoting. In fact, I recently noticed that some high-end mineral supplements use Vitamin C, apparently to increase mineral absorption. So I suspect that the role of the C in the Salt/C is that it increases mineral absorption. I actually am able to use less Vitamin C than the recommendations on www.LymePhotos.com <http://www.lymephotos.com/> . I'm sorry, but this treatment concept really doesn't have much grounding in fact. This is NOT a treatment concept. This is a working treatment that is helping people right now as you read this. THAT is the fact. There may be some unknowns, but Salt/C has gone way beyond the concept stage. This is a blockbuster therapy for Lyme, but it is still at the ground-floor level. I have been in the CFS community for many years and 'see the light' here, I believe that Salt/C may help many people in this community. But I don't know that for a fact. That is why I am here talking with you. Wasn't this list formed for this purpose? To uncover promising treatments? Well, here is one. I am NOT saying that everyone with CFS-FM has Lyme Disease, but some clearly do. But at issue is whether Salt/C can help PWC, that is the question I have. I would be happy to provide information on the protocol I am following, and can describe how it is working for myself and others I am working with. --Kurt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lyme disease can be carried by any biting insect such as fleas and mosquitos. In the USA it the tick that most commonly carries borrelia is called the deer tick, but the deer tick lives on other animals too such as your pets. In the UK it is the sheep tick. In fact it is often small mammals such as mice which act as natural reservoirs for infection. It is now believed the borrelia bacteria can be passed on in blood transfusions and from mother to baby, but more evidence is required. > > 4.

Guest guest Posted February 25, 2005 Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 Oops, sorry . I didn’t notice you were not … Same response applies ! --Kurt Re: SPAM-LOW: RE: SPAM-LOW: Re: Lyme's disease Kurt - You had mentioned medical-grade salt tablets from CNC - do you have a website for CNC, or any other info on these? Could not find CNC on the Net. Also, I know that table salt is not as healthy as 'balanced' salt - but for those of us who cannot tolerate RealSalt (and similar natural salts), does table salt work as well as natural salts? I would assume that one would have to take minerals also, to keep sodium in balance with other minerals?(I believe that there are primarily 2-3 other minerals that have to balance with sodium - maybe magnesium, calcium, potassium? Not sure on this) - Thanks!les PS: You did not get any digestive upset with taking this much salt? Like stomach irritation or bowel irregularities, or get hyped from taking too much salt? I remember your saying that your adrenals were underfunctioning, so I guess taking the salt just brought them up to normal - and perhaps taking the majority of the salt in the morning would be best? RE: SPAM-LOW: Re: Lyme's disease * I love it - Soup. We are in quite a stew. (groan) Yes, that site is hard on light sensitives. I have corresponded with the primary author, and know people who have spoken with her. I don't know her qualifications (I do know her name but will respect her privacy). Some people say she is a computer programmer professionally. She has been symptom free for 6 years now on the treatment. She was very sick for a long time. Just like most of us. She is not doing anything that any of use could not do. No permit is required to learn to use a microscope. just have to want to. and some people on this list seem to know more about some aspects of medicine than a lot of doctors . knowledge is independent of credentials. You can monitor BP during the Salt/C protocol. I do. Mine went up a little, not enough to worry about. And it comes down often. I think it is an adjustment issue and not a long-term problem. Our ancestors ate a LOT more salt than we do, but in a natural mineral-rich form. We are designed to handle as much as 30g of salt per day, although there are people who can not handle so much. Most of us are salt deficient. Probably because table salt has been processed in a way that makes it difficult for the body to use. In my own case, I also have the same adrenal issues you do. I have a choice, I must take either salt, or cortisol to make it through the day. If I don't take my salt, I will be in bed all day without cortef. DGL licorice also fixes salt regulation, BTW, I can also take that to get through the day, but I prefer the salt. And I have the coag problem also. I am textbook CFS. And the salt helps that. However, I still do need help on 'sick days' but I get by with a Nattokinase tablet, which works almost as well as Heparin, maybe better. I believe the salt/C protocol is correcting the blood volume problem. I gain a few pounds on the salt, and I think it is mostly water, and I do swell a little, but it is in the muscles. I believe the muscles are hugely dehydrated in CFS, which is one reason we have no energy (not the only, but contributory). Also, the muscles make a lot of gluco-hormones, so when they are 'down' and dehydrated we have less energy. I haven't told my whole story yet, because I don't want to get people's hopes up before others have tried this to see if my experience is a fluke, but it is dramatic. I am not cured of CFS, but I went from about 10% functional to almost 60% functional in a few months. This has NEVER happened to me before on ANY treatment, and I have been on a lot of them. Before, I was laying in bed most of the day, and on good days I could use my laptop to read the latest CFS theory. So much data and so little help. Now I am working again (out of the house though, still don't travel much), and can think clearly about 80% of the time. Still get the brain fog moments, but an hour of recuperation fixes that. I have only been on my lower-dose 'CFS' version of the protocol for close to a year, but I was not consistent, I stopped it over the summer and deteriorated again. The past few months I have been more diligent about the protocol, and it continues to work for me. In the past year my digestion (IBS plus everything else you read about) has cleared up substantially and is better than ever. Candida is gone (salt controls that - think of bread-making and how you use salt), and I can sleep again without sedatives (after 7 years of needing them). People in the Lyme community using Salt/C are having similar experiences, their worst symptoms are improving. This is not the end solution, but I think a huge step has been taken. --Kurt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
