I'm presenting the research proving the cyst form of Borrelia burgdorferi causes the plaques found in Alzheimer's disease.
However, since this particular paper has been the only one published proving such information, I need more research to argue the point.
This is where I need your help: If you, or someone you know has been diagnosed with both Lyme disease AND Alzheimer's disease, if you have any sort of medical documentation, can you please email it to me @ [email protected] with the subject of "Research Information"
You can scan the documents and save them as a file and just attach it to the email.
I know this is a very difficult request, as lab work regarding lyme disease is a disgrace. However, if anyone is seeing an LLMD, I know their documentation for their lyme patients is pheonomenal.
No names will be used, so your identity will be kept anonymous.
Thank you so much!! I'm doing my best to educate my colleagues and do justice for all of us living with this disease.
With Hope and Sincerity,
Green

Thank you for trying to educate your colleagues.
Have you considered putting out a request to LLMD's to see if they will talk to some of their patients for you? That would be a quick and easy way to identify those with Lyme and Alzheimer's who are willing to provide info. www.ilads.org
Luckily I don't have alzheimers but I know of someone who used to post here who might know of some people. I've written to her and pointed her to your post but I don't know if she is even around the internet these days. Hopefully some resources will come along for you.
You might get more responses if you identified yourself if that is something that you feel you can do.
Best of luck to you and again, thank you for trying. It is very much appreciated.
