Guest guest Posted July 31, 2002 Report Share Posted July 31, 2002 Dr Shantha is located just south of Atlanta GA in a town called Stockbridge. He has a web site http://lymelink.com/chronic.htm I can tell you, Dr Shantha is willing to learn anything with regards to lyme. Just today there were 4 other people who were there to get treatment for their lyme, he is always asking how you feel, what he can do to make things better. I have never had a Dr care and research anything like he is doing. He is still young in the lyme arena, but he CARES. He wants to know what other doctors are doing and success and failures for different treatments. following is the basics for his treatment methods. His wed site goes into more depth. Outlines of Dr.Shantha's method of treatment for CLD 1. Insulin Potentiation Therapy (IPT) with antibiotics (which breaks the blood brain barrer) 2. Metabolic intra cellular hyperthermia (MICHT) 3. MICHT with extra cellular hyperthermia (ECHT) 4. Use of cytokines therapy with interferons and interleukins as biologic response modifiers. 5. Hyperbaric therapy will push the therapeutic agents through the doors that are opened by above methods and let the antibiotics reach the Lyme and other disease-causing organisms and eliminate them. 6. Use of Rife principle 7. Nutritional and alternative immune boosting therapy Further, heating and Insulin makes the Lyme disease organism more amenable to antibiotics and immune system attack. (Klempner et al). if you have anymore questions let me know I will be glad to talk or email more info.

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2002 Report Share Posted July 31, 2002 Forgot to tell you: He is very agressive in his treatment. When you go in he uses all of the protocol not just this or that. Di Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2002 Report Share Posted July 31, 2002 Dr Shantha has us on a 4 week three times a week treatment, then a wait time to see how the sympthoms are. With he wants to continue treatment a while longer than the initial 4 weeks. So I guess this might be his way of thinking also. (not sure) I know that those who come from out of town are told 2 weeks 5 times a week then a wait time.

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2002 Report Share Posted July 31, 2002 thanks Di as far as agression goes, my sense is that once herxes are controllable, a pulsed all out therapy is worth trying. the idea is to penetrate as much tissue as possible and kill all that can be killed. after the combined modality has reached maximum saturation -and than a plateau duration- , the threapy should be stopped while the patient is built up again. than another multi-modal pulse with lengthaning periods in between the next assault. my feeling is that the spirochetes when under continual assault stay in their CWD state and wait. perhaps they can be coaxed out by an " alls clear " later. i understand that no one knows what a good rythim might be, but it seems a pulsed attack makes some sense. about the most clear thinking i have read on lyme and abx is that strep is treated for 7 days and that translates to x # of cycles of reproduction. if BB were treated according to this protocol than it would be something like 3 years to cover the same # of cycles. so their is a duration and saturation aspect here. therefore i recommend pulsed therapy after and inital attack -- sincerely william meyer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2003 Report Share Posted January 20, 2003 I hear through the grapevine that most people who went to him for lyme did not improve. It seemed to be a combinaton of insulin potentiated therapy (you get insulin in order to supposedly open your cell membranes for better uptake of antibiotics--I think it sounds dangerous at best), then IV antibiotics, and also some hyperbaric, some hyperthermia (usnic acid in small amounts IV, and also saunas)...a few people apparently felt better. Many felt worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
