Thanks. Was not aware of the differences gout has in the two diagnoses.

You are on your toes..You want to tell them how to rule Lyme out....
Lyme Disease has been called "The New Great Imitator", a replacement for that old "great
imitator" neurosyphilis. The two diseases share so many symptoms that Lyme disease should be ruled out
if multiple sclerosis diagnosis is in question.

I am sorry greengirl. That is today impossible by
standard labs and doctors who do not know how to
read the tests. There are very few specialty labs who have got it right.
My doc still tried to tell me neg. after my test plainly said pos.
MS is LYME and most likely everything that goes with Lyme. I have no reserves in that conviction.
With a test that is less than 50% accurate it is a clinical diagnosis. Both recognized by the CDC and IDSA.
The problem is they will not recognize that long term antibiotic therapy can heal you.
They will not recognize the stealth ability of borrelia to hide in the immune system.
They will not recognize that borrelia makes a calcium shell out of biofilm to protect its self
from antibiotics only to be released again when no longer threatened.
They will not recognize that many LLMD have figured out ways around this though it takes a
long time to do. It can be done.
Instead they choose to tell people it must be something else if the 4 weeks of antibiotics did
not cure you. Lets call it MS for now and sign thousands up for experimental brain surgeries.
Please don't be mislead.
