I am so glad you found that interview Phoiph. I think a low CD57 without borellia flares and positive bands 23 and 41 are pretty conclusive. The man wants money for his lab. I wouldn't bother with his testing.
I got the Bactrim and started it. I am only taking it once a day. I may add in the Alinia as it was so effective. I am just timid about taking a lot of drugs without supervision although in the past the marijuana doctor didn't give a hoot what I was taking.
I agree with Michael - there has to have a cure. If our bodies could fight it off for decades, like he suggests, then it can fight it off again.
Catgirl, I hope the Cictus works for us. My fat binders are helping. I don't have to be so strict with the fat. There are a lot of things that just taste so much better with a little fat in the form of nuts or seeds or avocado.
Cat Bartonella possess hair-like structures found on the bacteria’s surface w hich allow the bacteria to stick to, and penetrate, red blood cells and the cells that make up the walls of the capillaries.
I bought a book about making liposomal vitamin C. I will post it in case anyone wants to try it.

Make your own Liposomal Vitamin C
What you need
Distilled water Non GMO Lecithin Granules (soy or sunflower) Sodium Asorbate Powder (no other kind)
Stir 3 TB lecithin in 1 cup warm water. Blend about 5-10 minutes in blender until homogenized. It goes faster if you let it soak first for half an hour to an hour. It turns a creamy bright yellow.
Dissolve 1 TB Sodium Asorbate powder in 1/2 cup of water. Add to lecithin and blend.
Pour both into the ultrasonic Cleaner and turn on. The small model only runs for 3 minutes so you will have to turn it on about ten times. Stir frequently with wood or plastic (not metal).
This book says to do the ultrasound for 30 minutes. There are videos on YouTube where they only do it for 6-8 minutes. There are larger cleaners but this one works fine.
The liposomes you buy are much thicker than this and I was confused if it was working. She said you can increase the thickness by adding less water or increasing the amount of lecithin/viatmin C but keep the same ratio. The consistency of this is like cream. Someon on YouTube used heaping TBs and his consistency was more like egg yolk.
This stores in the frig for 2 weeks. It is unstable, becoming unencapsulated so it is best to make small batches.
How to test for encapsulation Add 1/4 ts sodium bicarbonate to 1 oz distilled water and mix Pour 4 oz of liposome into glass
Pour the sodium bicarbonate mixture into the liposome vitamin C.
Foam occurs when the un encapsulated vitamin C reacts with the soda.
You can still use this - don'g throw it out. If fact if you only have pharmaceutical pure ascorbate, you have to add sodium bicarbonate to it so it is not too acidic.
