re nanobacteria and guaifenesin treatment for fibromyalgia

[Guest guest]

This is a note I wrote to Dr. R. St. Amand, and following I quote some

of the nanobacteria information and then his response. Apparently

guaifenesin might help fight the calcium accumulations and the nanobacteria

(and quite possibly the intracellular Mycoplasma, since the FM lesions are

low in oxygen and might provide a safe-haven for the microbes). So, I

encourage anyone who wants to do so, to share this information.

I also want to mention that I believe fibromyalgia lesions are probably very

common in autoimmune diseases. A study showed that more than half of lupus

patients also had fibromyalgia according to tender point examinations and I

would suspect that using Dr. St. Amand's mapping method, they percentage

would be even higher. For more information, see www.guaidoc.com or <A

My email to Dr. St. Amand:

<<How's it going? Anything new? I thought I'd send you some posts I got in a

rheumatic.org group. I guess there are some calcium deposits in FM as well as

the intracellular Ca and P and it occurred to me that there might be some

common interests, as quoting from below: " Agents that block mineralization

or

dissolve apatite also look promising for the treatment of nanobacteria and

kidney stones. " Might guai help or might they have info. that would be of

interest to us?

What do you think? It's interesting too that the tetracyclines are some of

the most common antibiotics used for mycoplasma and Lyme, infections found in

a lot of FM patients. I don't have time right now to follow up on it or

contact those involved, but perhaps you or someone else would be interested

in doing it.

Warmly,

Joyce

Nanobacteria are dwarf forms of bacteria, mostly 0.05 to 0.2 micrometers,

about one-tenth the diameter and 1/1000 the volume of ordinary bacteria.

They are on the frontier of science. Researchers have shown that

nanobacteria grown in the laboratory produce calcium phosphate formations,

much like those found in kidney, gall, and bladder stones. Many of our

chronic diseases may be due to nanobacteria that wall themselves off inside

of calcium deposits, becoming resistant to antibiotics

Nanobacteria testing and treatment are available from nanobacLabs. Their

web page

http://www.nanobaclabs.com/nanobaclabs-nanobacteria-what-are-nanobacteria.asp

claims: " Available by physician prescription only, NanobacTX and UroBac are

the only effective treatments to eradicate nanobacterial infections. The

urine screening test, nanobacTEST-U/A is available as is the comprehensive

nanobacTEST-S bloodtest for Nanobacterial Antigen and Antibodies. At this

time, both nanobacTEST methods are available only through nanobacLabs

participating physicians. Call NanobacLabs TollFree at 1-877-676-2241 to

arrange for testing through a participating research physician in your area. "

The following are also informative web pages:

http://forum.lef.org/forum23/topic1000173.html

This last web page includes this intriguing text, which is right in line

with the AP, which uses minocycline, a tetracycline class antibiotic:

" The eradication of nanobacteria from human blood, tissues, calcifications

and stones focuses on antibiotic therapies. Nanobacteria are highly

sensitive to tetracycline antibiotics. Agents that block mineralization or

dissolve apatite also look promising for the treatment of nanobacteria and

kidney stones. "

The following is Dr. St. Amand's response (note that when he refers to the

" old drugs " he means the uricosuric gout drugs they used to use to get rid of

the fibromyalgia lesions by boosting phosphate excretion before they found

that guaifenesin worked better).

<<

The kidney stone part is well-known. Benemid, the first of our old drugs, was

reproted to decrease or clear some patients with calcific tendinosis. We have

seen all of the drugs ease and sometimes stop kidney stone formation.
