Marshal,
From everything I have read the one reason they have trouble curing lyme
after it goes chronic is that many of the abx do not cross the blood/brain
barrier. There is proof though that the lyme bacteria does get in the brain
and that is why many people have symptoms similiar to alzheimers. Here is
some info reprinted from Dr. Burrascano's Protocal on Lyme.........
SPECT scanning of the brain, if done by knowledgeable radiologists using
high-resolution equipment, will show characteristic abnormalities in Lyme
encephalopathy. This not only helps with the differential diagnosis, but if
done before and after acetazolamide, it will guide in the use of
vasodilators, which may clear some cognitive symptoms. Therapy can also
include serotonin agonists, pentoxiphylline and even Ginko biloba.
Therapeutic trials may be needed.
If you would like to understand more on Lyme disease here is the address for
his whole protocal.

Yep, Marshal I would say that it does cross the barrier.
