Go to http://www.underourskin.org/ if you are interested in learning more about LYME from a "trailer" for a new film. See just HOW BIG THIS PROBLEM IS. Medical boards are rescinding medical licenses of the practitioners who are treating Lyme, which in many cases has been also diagnosed as MS, Lupus, Chronic Fatigue, and Fibromyalgia, etc.
Those with unlimited finances will also find genetic, toxin, and malnutrition issues with food sensitivities and other pathogens besides Borrelia B, which makes these patients with no easy answers. Anti-infective therapies often do not completely hold and thus I am suggesting we have to address the entire spectrum of issues that I always bring up in the complex patient. Methylation issues due to epigenetic changes related to our toxin load must be assumed to be present. The 677 MTHFR problem is in 50% of our population and the work of Randy Jirtle at Duke has lead to the identification of BISPHENOL A, as an epigenetic insult that lead to HYPOMETHYLATION in his Agouti mice, which wound up turning yellow, developing obesity and Diabetes. They reversed to sleek brown normal weight mice with the administration of methylating agents B12 and Folic acid or detoxifying substances like Genistein. With the headlines today about LEAD levels at birth showing up years later as health issues including violent and criminal behavior, it means to me that we need to look much further than just the presence or absence of a particular pathogen to bring these patients back and stop this from happening to others in future. We go through all the phases from adrenal insufficiency to Candida to food reactions to hypoglycemia etc and never realize that we are the 4 blind men looking at the elephant and seeing only a small part of the picture. This trailer is worth your viewing, as you will be seeing these patients in your office and they can be helped. You do not need to lose your license over antibiotic based programs. And join me in California on June 26-28th where the film will be shown and I will be presenting at the Lyme-Autism Connection Conference and Physicians' Training.

Gordon MD,DO,MD(H) President, Gordon Research Institute www.gordonresearch.com http://www.tribecafilmfestival.org/filmguide/Under_Our_Skin.html It may be the most controversial illness in America today. Most people think of Lyme disease as that thing you can catch from a tick bite, but few know the true graveness of one of the most dangerous epidemics currently afflicting people across the nation. Already profoundly difficult to test accurately, thousands of people go undiagnosed or, even worse, misdiagnosed with Lyme. The Center for Disease Control estimates that more than 200,000 people acquire Lyme disease each year, a number greater than that of new cases of AIDS, West Nile Virus, and Avian Flu combined. And yet, the medical establishment-with profound influence from the insurance industry-has stated that the disease is detectable and treatable and that chronic Lyme is most likely either some other affliction or a completely psychosomatic disorder. Under Our Skin is a powerful and often terrifying examination of Lyme disease that looks at not just the science of the bacteria and the politics of the controversy but also the personal stories of those whose lives have been affected and nearly destroyed. From a few brave doctors who risk their medical licenses to patients who once led active and athletic lives but now can barely walk, Andy Abraham Wilson's documentary uncovers issues and secrets that most people probably don't even know exist. While exposing evidence of a broken healthcare system, he also gives voice to those who believe that instead of a crisis, Lyme is simply an "epidemic of hysteria," often overdiagnosed and contributing to another potential future crisis: the looming ineffectuality of antibiotics and the growing strength of viruses. Wilson's careful study and expert storytelling provide a compelling, informative, and emotional experience of one of the most mysterious and important-but least discussed-diseases currently plaguing our country. -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
