Not sure if any of you can view this movie but I've put the link up here.

They never say what cures it...I'll look into it later. But I've read so many times how lyme is similar to syphillis so I found this old movie tonight. It's not anything new-- especially the reference in the movie about "quacks", which we call "ducks". [Frown]

No, we don't have syphillis....it's not our crime or negligence. We have the crime of lyme which is just similar.

Just scares me how similar they are and where did it come from? Are we just an experiment?

Scary.

I was told by someone with expertise with syphilis that it went through the same difficult public recognition that Lyme/co's are now going through. And the AIDS epidemic also went through the same difficulty in the beginning. History repeats itself.

My homecare nurse commented when we first met 2 1/2 years ago that this was a lot like the early days of AIDS. Patients showing up with scores of research.

Bicillin: I hear Bicillin is used against Syphilis...
