I believe you are referring to a treatment which is available in the US
{not covered by insurance though} in which the blood is infused with
hydrogen peroxide and then exposed to ultraviolet radiation. the
problem with such a therapy is there are no controlled studies
available to validate its efficacy. also, infusing blood with hydrogen
peroxide can be dangerous, it must be done very carefully.
the expense of such a procedure, which is usually performed many times,
precludes many patients from pursuing it as an option.
but regardless of this, if LLMDs believed that such a therapy was
useful, believe me they would be prescribing it to thousands of
patients, and they do not. the same goes for hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
I was told to expect it to take 50 sessions before any relief would be
obtained. that's tens of thousands of dollars if not more. and there is
no guarantee you will get any benefit at all. or, if you do, whether
you will relapse 2 months later. and if that's the case, that the
patient is going to relapse anyway, you might as well stick to abx
because even IV abx are far cheaper than HBOT and are sometimes covered
by insurance.

The POINT is...neither you nor KathLOON apparently give a DAMN about
anyone else besides yourselves.
You're not here to help others...but to moan and whine and bitch and
try to blame all your troubles on others.
You both have absolutely RUINED this board.
You're both pathetic, selfish immature JERKS.
Keep in mind...That this specific Usenet forum has been full of Loons for
years now. And its most likely because of the severe , confusing, mental
effects that long term Lyme has on the brain. Im not a patient, but my mom
was. And I must say... Lyme can turn you into a really , really, strange
individual..
Thankfully mom is much better now.. She went to Europe where they know how
to treat this illness properly (without meds) and got it out of her system
100%. And this was done 15 years ago and she has NEVER tested positive again
for lyme. She had a Dialysis type treatment done where they ran her blood
through this machine that would significantly heat up the temperature of her
blood and kill off all the bad stuff... and then the blood would be returned
to her body.. I do not know the specifics since it was done in Hungary and
the language and terms are different over there. But there is a cure out
there for this in Europeun countries... Our American Government over here
only knows how to treat illnesses with pills.. which helps the economy.
