Guest guest Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 I'm slogging along through Buhner's book, and since I'm having a bit of brain fog, it's slow going, and I'm not that far into it. I'm reading about tick saliva, and how it depresses the immune system allowing the spirochetes to get a foothold. OK - so far not good. But if you already have Lyme, chemicals in the saliva also sends a signal to all the spirochetes already in the body. They come out of the tissues into the blood stream and collect at the bite so they can get sucked up by the tick and hopefully get carried off to infect a new host. So, why can't we use this? Why not use tick saliva to draw the spirochetes out of the tissues into the blood stream where the antibiotics can more easily kill them off? Has anyone heard of doing this? I'm almost tempted to go out in the woods and offer myself up. Here, tick, tick, tick... Come and get me. --------------------------------- Stay in the know. Pulse on the new .com. Check it out.
