I think Dr. K stated somewhere that patients with parasites behave like the parasites. Scary stuff.

Great article. I really believe that parasites can alter our behavior. How about what's referred to as Lyme Rage may be caused by bart infection?

Makes sense to me. I have noticed differences in myself. I used to become very manic at times. Doesn't really happen since I have been eradicating parasites.

This is sooooo creepy to think bugs are controling our mental state. A Steven king novel for sure.

Thanks for posting lax mom,

I'm confused about bartonella.

It's worded just this way from wikipedia:

Bartonella (formerly known as Rochalimaea) is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria. Facultative intracellular parasites

And I've seen one or the other used other places. How can it be both?

If it is a parasite, why does it get killed by abx?

The definition of a parasite is an organism that lives in or on another organism and gains benefit from that relationship while harming the host organism. Thus bacteria, viruses, fungi, protists, and worms can also be parasitic if they steal our nutrients and cause harm.

Not all parasites can be killed by abx, but some can.
