Maybe cured himself with supplements? Just curious. He went from being an everyday poster to vanished!

banned? oh no!
he was a funny, grumpy guy!
I miss him.

it's so sad when lyme folk are banned, just for the simple fact that so many are isolated and depressed anyway, that banning must feel to them like being locked in a dungeon and left for dead.
it's like family shunning.
so sorry, massman.

Yes, we need to hear a reason when people are banned. Being grumpy and sometimes critical is not a good enough reason. Sick people are like this.

From what I gathered he knew how to cure Lyme and everyone else was stupid for not flushing their colon with bleach and eating organically grown carrots from a specific island in the south pacific where you must travel to -- shipping them would contaminate them. Once you ate them, you had to then have 8 bowel movements a day or your Lyme would not be cured.

Sounds about right?

I think the guy was just a typical combative Lyme patient who has neuro-psychiatric symptoms. He was always arguing with people and appeared pretty pompous. I had nothing against him though. I'm sure he meant well.

What prompted the ban:

The demand that some opinions be proven by experts - yet different experts than were quoted (as they were not good enough or the "right" and "true" experts) - and the personal insults were offensive to several posters who were targeted repeatedly at the same time.

He was asked several times to lighten the tone before the series of harsher confrontations. Such behavior was beyond rude, it was intentionally insulting and assaultive.
