Default Re: Townsend Letter discusses why antibiotics aren't good choice for chronic Lym

thank you Bubba for making those EXCELLENT points!!
It is important to point those things out, because this is simply ANOTHER OPPOSING POINT of VIEW, and certainly NOT THE MOST WIDELY ACCEPTED!!!
Oddly enough, THIS time it is coming from the alternative medical practitioners, who have OFTEN sided WITH the ILADS physicians who are the docs that recommend long-term antibiotic therapy; as opposed to the conservative, traditional, university-based, medical-school, research-type, & organizational medical practitioners. So, perhaps it represents a new shift in certain political-medical alliances, I fear that will have repercussions for our "allowable" insurance reimbursements in the future.

Remember--I have chronic Lyme, (as well as a host of the usual bad boys--most them "officially cured," ha-ha, & of course, My Morgies...) and I was getting INJECTABLE antibiotics for 1/2 of this past year...
