I think it's fantastic that Ally is able to tolerate 1/2 of a demeclocycline pill. At that dose she is definitely killing bacteria. So if she can tolerate the die-off and still feel some improvement she is definitely getting better. I think you will find that things gradually get easier and easier for her. She is still going to herx, but "underneath" the herx she may start to feel increasingly resilient. At least that's what happened to me. My herx reaction was always strong, but as I killed more and more bacteria it became easier to tolerate because my original disease symptoms were going away. I gained a sense of true inner strength that I had not had for years. Gradually I realized that I could push myself and not relapse or end up in bed. Nowadays I don't even think about pushing myself too hard. If I do I usually sleep it off. That's quite a difference from the days where the most minimal things could put me in bed for weeks. I know that right now Ally can't engage much in life outside the family but I truly believe that one day she will become a happy, normal young person. At that point she will be so strong from dealing the her illness that she will probably maintain a continually positive outlook on life and enjoy each healthy day much more than the average person. All the best to both of you, Amy Hi Lori,

Things here with Ally seem different, and it's kind of hard to explain. She had a 6 week or so hiatus a number of months ago, then went on to Declomyacin from Minocycline. She got back on a new antibiotic called Declomyacin, it has kicked her butt most of the time, but she finally graduated from a 1/4 of a pill to 1/2 of a pill just this last week. We were expecting the worst out of doubling the AB, but she hasn't had the dreadful experience we thought might surely happen. It hasn't been easy by any means but it has been way worse in the past. I feel like something is changing in her and for the better for the first time ever!. My mother's intuition says something's up. It seems as though she has really killed off a lot of the bacteria in this last grueling horrendous year. It makes sense according to how the MP says it works. If she has greatly lowered her bacterial load, then her herx's should get less and less right? I am hoping and praying with every fiber of my heart and soul, that things will start to go in her favor. She has lost so much of her life, Its hard to wrap my mind around her enormous losses. When she does get well, she will have to build herself a life from the bottom up. No friends, no school, no job. We are her everything. Let me know what your thoughts might be. How did things start to change for you? I know each person goes through this differently but I am just wondering. Thanks, Lori Schott Hi Amy,

We were both right, many different bacteria, but in stealth mode, the same appearance (yeastlike discs with punctate/depressed centers). These are mitochondria, and the bacteria evolve from them just as A. Bechamp described. I have witnessed and filmed this phenomenon. Hello Amy,

I'm also familiar with the study you are referencing. I agree that the study and your own experiments are surely detecting bacteria in the blood, but there is no evidence to suggest that you are only observing only one pathogen. Each sample you view likely contains a variety of different pathogens, each of which contribute to the exacerbation of certain symptoms. It would be great if standard laboratories knew how to correctly identify these bacteria in the blood samples of patients. However at the moment they are not trained in the techniques and it is impractical to think Dr. Marshall could somehow test the blood of MP patients. They are located all over the world and obtaining blood samples is a delicate issue. In any case, thanks for sharing. The fact that the study you referenced found bacteria in people considered to be "healthy" enforces Marshall's view that everyone harbors a certain level of the Th1 pathogens. Essentially, no one is immune to these bacterial forms as they age. Best, Amy Hi Greg,

I was refering to a particular Mashall Protocol member in my previous response. He mentioned seeing what he believed were mycoplasma while looking at fingerstick blood with darkfield microscopy. I am seeing the same in all fingerstick samples that I have observed. Electron micrographs of these organisms are available. McLaughlin, Vali, Lau, et.al. "Are There Naturally Occurring Pleomorphic Bacteria in the Blood of Healthy Humans?" Journal of Clinical Microbiology, Dec. 2002, p. 4771-4775. Also," Etiologic studies on late-term swine abortions" Nielsen, Armstrong, Turek, Nielsen. J. Vet. Diagn. Invest. 1:160-164 (1989). These organisms are profuse in most of the samples that I have seen. Many erythrocytes appear to be packed with these. That can't be good, can it? More info available, Hello Amy,

I don't know who you are talking about when you refer to "windy city, leather hat" Is that the name of a member on the MP? Even if such a person has already addressed the issue perhaps you could direct us to where the discussion took place or perhaps you could explain the highlights of their comments yourself? Thanks, Amy Hi Greg,

I'm not sure what that means and I would like more info about the Canadian pathogens. Thanks - Mark Can anyone enlighten me on the previous comment “windy city, leather hat”.
