what is the infectious agent that causes syphilis? Treponema pallidum, a spiral shaped bacterium called a spirochete Third stage symptoms, and/or if untreated, include PARALYSIS, inability to coordinate movements, inability to feel pain, gradual blindness, dementia (madness) or other personality changes, impotence, blockage or balloning of the heart vessels, tumors, damage to knee joints, and deep sores on the feet, damage to vital organs. The damage may be serious enough to cause death.
Why should we be afraid - they tell us the spirochete is harmless....but they've known about syphilis for a long time, and look what it can do.
How can Neuros say, beyond a shadow of a doubt, Lyme bacteria's cannot be the cause of motor neuron diseases? It's a spirochete isn't it, not to mention a close cousin to syphilis!

Let's see, maybe it's because they are horse's as*es, or maybe they've been taught in med school to never think outside the box (the AMA box) or maybe because they're arrogant or they think they can't learn from a patient.

syphilis is also antibiotic resistant today. This is accepted widely in the medical community.

They may be right that the disease doesn't do the damage, but no one has disputed the fact that the neurotoxins produced by the disease can not cause illness exactly like MS, ALS and maybe all other CNS ailments.

At the big conference in Hartford, it was either Joanne Whittaker or Lida Mattman -- I think Whittaker, Daystar would remember -- who believes that ALS may be end-stage Lyme. Not very cheery. Remember, this is from a very scientific and learned mind.

Your learned mind may also be right, but it doesn't explain all cases of ALS. My doc believes it may be a combination of the lyme+the make up of the person=ALS. He doesn't believe there is very much natural unexplained ALS in humans. And seeing how he has cured early onset lyme with MS and ALS symptoms over the last 25 years, I tend to believe him
