I guess Garth Nicholson can be put into the same catorgory...is he an MD or just a Phd?
I think they understand how disease that are molecular based mimic the immune system tricking it so it thinks it is part of it....
what I find amazing in this is the link to carcinoma....which in my case well just not sure it's in or out...you can say what you want agree with it or disagree...it's your call...do low levels of Vitamin D = cause for cancer????...I do not think Marshall is all about the Vit D unless they are elevated in many chronic illnesses there are low levels of Vit D
Has anyone heard about or had any expierence with the VDR antagonist he mentions in this clip? OLMESARTAN MEDOXOMIC?

People try to discredit Dr.Marshalls work by saying his full background is in electrical engineering. Here is quote from Dr.Marshall about his background. Do you know what Biomedical engineering is? They seek out new treatments for diseases. His wife has a degree in pharmacology.
Dr. Trevor Marshall, Ph.D.: I graduated Bachelor of Engineering (w/w statistics) from the University of Adelaide in 1974. I spent a year in Papua New Guinea teaching at the University of Technology in Lae, and then spent 6 years teaching at Curtin University in Western Australia. During that tenure I received my Masters Degree and commenced my PhD Research at the University of Western Australia, in Biomedical Engineering.

Correct engineering just doesn't have to do with designing a new septic system.....ex: at MIT in MA....a degree program there is engineering...in DNA....SAME LINE
I am sure by now most have read the clip/story about the lady that went to I believe India for embryonic stem cell transplant to cure her lyme disease....who would have thought that...makes me wonder if autologus or allogenic stem cell will help us and of course how true the story is

Dear Raymond,
I haven't tried Olmesartin yet--I have about a month's supply sitting on top of my refrigerator, if I decide to give the MP a go.
What truly intrigued me is that the "VITAMIN D" levels everyone is getting tested for is the 25-D, which is NOT what the body actually uses, so it is NOT the active form.
The active form is 1,25-D.
This can be TOO HIGH. On lab tests, when you get this test done, the report will tell you if it is OUT OF NORMAL RANGE.
Mine was!
This, on its own, has a list of toxic symptoms.
But, my 25-D was "normal." So, under usual circumstances, I would have been told to continue taking large doses of Vitamin D, even though I clearly had symptoms of Vitamin D toxicity.
This is not even going into what the MP is about, in terms of dealing with the hundreds of Vitamin D receptors (VDR) and so on.
It just seems to me that people could be pushing their 1,25-D into the stars and harming their health, because this value is not being tested for either in research or in giving out medical advice.
Best,
Cass A

quote:Originally posted by canefan17: If you had your 1, 25D level tested you'd see it was extremely HIGH.
Cane, this is not always true or reproducible in lyme patients.
And I think a lot (maybe most) of the people on the board are savvy about D issues....
Im not! This is all new to me. Im taking a mag cal supplement with vitamen d. Everytime i test- regular test, my d level is low, or has been 2 x.
Also could you guys maybe speak to me in simpler words when explianing as im not at all on your level, with all this.
I mean i see it like this: should i not be ordering a "sad" ( lol) light for getting enough light rays? should i not be taking vitamen d? If theres not a clear cut anwser beside ask your llmd ( i cant get into one yet) or difference of opinion could you itleast give me suggestions? = ) much appreciated. And much love to you all. your local 27 yr old lyme paitent who is extremely confused treating with a very nice doc who hasnt said what else to do because i dont think he knows but helps me out to write the scipt for my abx.
XOXO
What should i know, please fill me in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
also if you dont want to stir up discussion and you think you could help me please pm me. I live in the ri area, if you know a doc i could get into thats not on the list or quicker ways to get into certain ones please also hit me up.

I couldn't agree with you more as the vast majority of vita D research is just focusing on vita d levels being low not looking at the fact that it probably is low because it is being converted into 1.25 at a high rate which is keeping people ill.
I am on the MP and have gotten good results but what I would like to see most of all is for a lyme researcher to work with it and do even more extensive research on lyme and the MP.
Trevor takes the attitude one treatment fits all diseases and I think with lyme it would speed up peoples recovery up if they did a special MP lyme protocol as we have special needs that sarc patients don't. I have added two things to the MP that have helped that don't interfere with how the MP works just enhance it. Brian Rosner was the first to suggest using rife with mp as he had people coming to him saying hey this combo is really working for me and it worked for Brian also.
I will also like to add that the herxing that I got from the MP was way worse then anything a LLMD threw at me drug wise. Nothing I couldn't handle but the herxing from the MP made me really realize I was dealing with a monster in me.

low levels of vitiman D.....as mine....severely low....means chronic illness, is it just lyme...I don't think I'm that naive to think that....as far as that Olmesartin goes I just like it to be atep forward as he does in that video mention lyme......hmmpppp
