this is about spirochetes and cysts, not about biofilm (something totally

different). Testtube studies have very limited value in lyme, because the bugs

behave very different in the host (e.g. erythromycin is very effective ABX

agains Bb in the testtube, but totally ineffective in real life).

There have been a few studies that try to simulate biofilms in vitro, but I

haven't seen anything convincing yet. Biofilms are strongly tied to the host

organism, so you really have to study them in vivo (which is impossible in

humans because of ethics, studies in lab animals have their own problems).

I believe someone posted a study about this earlier. I was going to

investigate/research it.

Hydroxchloroquine... does anybody know what is this? Some (naturally occuring

or otherwise) new durg? Sounds promising... J

Hi All,

Hydroxchloroquine is the generic name for plaquenil. This abx is often used in

conjunction with another abx in the treatment of lyme cysts.

Take Care,
