Some in Europe have co-infections with CPN.

This website makes for interesting reading, especially since cpn has three life-forms and it takes months and months on different medicine combos to get rid of it

http://www.cpnhelp.org click the link chlamydia pneumoniae handbook

the part on ME/CFS is interesting

There is tons of information about this on this site. Do a search for CPN.

Good news is, most of the protocols to treat CPN are the same drug combos to treat lyme...except the lyme combos are higher doses.

I have CPn and Lyme. The Cpn is as difficult to test for as Lyme, since it is an intra-cellular infection.
IGenex have just introduced an IgG and IgA test for CPn.
I did the test with them this week during a Tinidazole pulse.
Lets see if that will flush the bugs out !
