This has been posted in other threads. Re-Posted here so it has a visilbity at Top Level to try to reach more eyes. (yes, i saw Bea's latest post, but need to keep going, not over yet)

Can anyone identify what's in the blood in these video clips? Or know who we can ask?

There are 27 clips at the YouTube page.

paste this link into your brower: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPhkUKOYC3Q

There is a square box button labeled "27 videos", click on that to see playlist.

Had to do YouTube w/o my teenager's help, so I have no confidence that I did it correctly.

Thanks in advance.

Great job & yes we I can see your videos.

Those long strings with bulbous tips are Spirochaets. They have various forms.

Form 1:
Bulbous strings

Form 2 :
Spores or granules The long bowl outs strings break up into tiny bulbs on the length of the string. These contain DNA or RNA packets and are the smallest unit of this particular Borrelia.

Form 3:
The Spores grow into the long bolbous strings. During that time they look like dancing spores in the blood plasma. Over the course of the infection these continue to grow in me. They can look like little coccoid bodies dancing around and small teardrop or cigar drop with a small tail.

I believe these are the precursors to the small rods or dumbells which then grow into the string with 2 bulbous tips.

Form 4:
Long string with circular bleb formation. The string is giving rise to a new bacteria that will be a fully formed Spirochaet. That is the string you see with the BIG ball on one end. Those can form anywhere on the length of the bacteria.

Form 5:
String can branch off in the middle and makes two new organisms. Sometimes the string bends when duplicating and is in the shape of an L, with bulb at either end and one in the middle (3 bulbs).

Form 6:
Borrelia encysts and forms a dancing large cyst. They look bigger than the spores or granules. They look clumpy and have irregular stains, but typically in a rough circle. They can also look like rings.

Things that may be confused as one of the above. Platelets, which are smaller than the spores and also dance around in Brownian motion. Lysosomes, which are dancing packets within the phagocytes that contain enzymes that break up bacteria. When your WBC die and lyse, they release the dancing units into the bloodstream, making it harder to distinguish between Borrelia spores.

When one looks at WBC's from a normal person, you realize and discover relative sizes and motility. The ones in the WbC that you posted & mine have abnormal motility. Mine look like encapsulated cysts or maybe even spores. Yours look more motile and possibly Bart.

My daughter and I have the most symptoms out of 16 people that have gotten bit in 6 houses aroundme. Both her and I have an over abundance of those strings (Borrelia).

My symptoms are worst and I feel the fibromyalgia and my blood shows really long strings. Surprisingly long!

It all adds up and symptoms reflect the numbers observed on my end.

More of us need to do this and look and share blood samples. Most of the researchers out there hord their findings for their greedy needs. You can tell those that just want to help and freely give out the info.

Wasn't Jamers a member on this board who also did microscopy. I don't think he shared much visual findings and even claimed to discover a food additive (maybe food coloring) that got rid of various bacteria forms in vivo (in his slide tests).

I think he ended up dying?

I have seen normal blood and the RBC's don't dance around. With mine some do and others don't. It looks like there is something moving and swimming around within the RBc.

At times I can see the strings (Borrelia) burrow its way out of the RBC. So the dancing RBC can be Borrelia or Babs.

I don't know what Babesia looks like freely swimming in the blood plasma. Please if anyone has any video links, please share.

amom, Dr. Alan McDonald, of "Under Our Skin," although he has been ill, is quite active in some places and might be available to have a look at these. I can't speak about whether he could draw any conclusions or whether he would mind if he was approached on behalf of Steve.


Next time you speak with Bea, maybe you could ask her if she would like to try and contact him? I can give her information on how to try.


I didn't want to bombard her email with a suggestion which might be unnecessary. If she'd like me to send her info. on a possible way to try to contact him, send me a message.
