I had a brainstorm and it's probably a crazy idea. Radiation kills bacteria before a bone marrow transplant, would it kill the lyme spirochete? Anybody ever try?
I know, Im getting desperate, but when all else fails...???

Not sure, but what doctor would ever do it?

In general, the more complex the life form is, the more susceptible to radiation poisoning it is.
So if Lyme follows that general rule, you would die before the bacteria would.

The downside to a blood transfusion is that so much of the blood supply is tainted with babesia. It would be like babs out, babs in!
What about the idea of temperature change.... Lyme likes body temp, so would extreme temperatures kill it or would that kill us first also? Like lowering our body temperature to room temperature? Soaking in ice cold water?

WHOA...total body irradiation is NOT a good idea, IMO.
We need to *target* the infected cells, but we ARE using one part of the EM spectrum to hit the lyme pathogen.
This is where far infrared and Rife therapies fit into the picture.
Frequencies (sound) and lightwaves are a part of the EM spectrum as is the much more powerful and much more dangerous radiation.
"What are the health risks from ionising radiation?"
This is all about BALANCE...we NEED some exposure to light energy to live, but as you know, too much exposure isn't good (skin cancer).
However, in old days farmers spent a LOT of time in the sun.
What happened?
What have we done to the protective ozone layer around earth?
You are on the right track though...using a very specific, highly targeted component of the EM spectrum to help us to heal.
