LYME DISEASE THE WORST MEDICAL DISGRACE OF ALL TIME.

Dr. Joe Burrascano talking on ILADS video.

Listen and weep for all the thousands of patients that our Governments have deliberately turned their back on and left untreated, despite having tools available to diagnose and treat for Chronic Lyme Disease. The worst medical disgrace of all time.




History of Lyme Disease by Joseph J. Burrascano, Jr. MD. from ILADS on Vimeo.


"Back in 1990/1991 the NIH developed their famous Gold stain and believe it or not, for the first time in history and also the last time in history the government agreed with what we(ILADS) were doing.

So the Gold stain was a method for detecting Borrelia, they used Borrelia specific antibodies that were bound to gold nanoparticles and they incubated that with the specimen and using electron microscope they photographed the result and they could actually see the aggregates of gold  under the  electron microscope and that would be a positive test in fact some of them actually showed whole spirochetes coated with gold, I have some beautiful photographs of shadowed spirochetes on electron microscope from them.

So they did ( I had to look this up to give you the exact thing.) They discovered that Borrelia even when in their dormant state were secreting what they called bio products, membrane bound vesicles they called them blebs and some of them were empty but some of them contained Borrelia DNA. Now we know that these are plasma fragments that allow Borrelia to communicate one to the other they also secreted what they called an S layer the letter S , S stands for slyme and the terminology today S is what a bacteria produces to make a biofilm. So there it was back in 1990 agreeing with what Alan MacDonald said in 1985- Borrelia do make biofilms. So here they found it.

So what did NIH do with this gold stain, well first they studied in animals, they studied dogs and mice and of course ticks. They found that in infected animals they could detect these gold stained spirochetes in the bladder, heart, brain, liver and spleen and blood of these infected animals, urine and tears as well as in the ticks themselves. Em! and then they started to do studies in humans and doctor Ken Liegner, myself, Paul Lavoie, Dorothy Pietrucha and others all contributed to that, a total of 73 patients were studied and again we had samples of tears, totally 50 samples of tears were collected - they found Borrelia in 47 or 48 samples of those 50 tears, that's how amazingly sensitive this test was.

With mouse urine they could dilute it 10 fold and still get a positive test, the test was 100% specific for Lyme borrelia. It did not pick up Relapsing fever Borrelia or Leptospira or other spirochetes that they tested, they did a lot of negative controls in animals and humans and never had a false positive, so it is a really solid test.

So then they got patient specimens from us, there were 73 patients these were all chronic Lyme patients whose treatments were ranged from many months upto 3 years and the mean duration of treatment was 13 1/2 months and 53% of these patients were still spilling living Borrelia antigens, these bio products that they could see. The other thing that they found, if you tested people who were still symptomatic -ok-em- and then you stopped the antibiotics and let at least 3 or 4 weeks go by and then tested them 100% were positive for Lyme. Exactly what I found in my studies five years earlier with IV therapy, if someone is still symptomatic when treatment ends and you let several weeks go by, by culture and this gold stain you can show they are still spilling Lyme living organisms. That's pretty cool.

So what ever happened to this great Gold stain - you know what, Nothing! When this whole thing came out the NIH stopped the funding for the gold stain, they made them close the whole thing down and never again did they ask front line Lyme doctors to contribute specimens to their studies. So there's some politics one more time."
