I have not heard of the peptide injections, but it sounds interesting.
I suspect that enhancing peptides in the brain could physiologically regulate someone similar to how it appears to happen with some attachment therapy.
Dr. Welch at Columbia did some research on how peptides in the gut may be stimulated to go to the brain. I think that also stimulates oxytocin which creates attachment.
I am curious if this same process could over-ride some of the physiological dysregulation created by Lyme complex.
It would be great if Dr. Fallon and Dr. Welch could get together and research something like this.

I am waiting on peptide treatment. I don't under-
stand how they work, but am willing to give it a try. The peptides are supposed to help get your
body to take care of itself.

I do know of one person who treated with neuropeptides in CT and swears that is what finally cured her of Lyme.
Given that they come from parts of pigs, I am hesitant - not a pork fan. Not sure of the quality of the product either. There is some controversy. Howvwer, there has been recorded success.
Very hard to find conclusive/credible information on this treatment for Lyme and cos. Still, I am curious.

Can someone explain exactly what this treatment is? What are Neuro Peptides and what do they have to do with the treatment of Lyme disease? Thanks.
