The criterion in the diagnosis borrelioznogo en-
tsefalomielita is the identification of inflammatory-
application in CSF in the form of lymphocytic pleotsitoza, in
augment the level of protein and intrathecal synthesis of IgM,
IgG, IgA antibodies to Borrelia. According to J. Heller et al.
[34], in patients with neuroborreliosis levels of IgM and cytosine
in CSF is much greater than that of patients with MS.
In addition, only patients with MS found intrate-

Tryan smallpox. Additional evidence in favor of
borrelioznoy etiology encephalomyelitis is a half-
HYDRATED or partial regression of symptoms against a background of pro-
lation etiotropic antibacterial therapy.
According to the National MS Society USA (Na-

Based on detection of antibodies to B.burgdorferi in blood and
AGC, atypical changes on MRI and absence of oligo-
clonal antibody diagnosis of MS was excluded in favor of
Lyme disease. In the second - showed that only per unit
ary cases of encephalomyelitis in patients with probable
diagnosis of MS may be a manifestation neyroborrelio-
favor.
According to our data [3], the result of the used
repetition among the 20 MS patients with positive ti-
ters of antibodies to Borrelia in serum in only 1
(5,0%) patient with acute LB in history confirmed

observed positive results in dynamic

slowly progressive psychoorganic syndrome.
Chronic radiculopathy (RP) occurs in 30 -
