Since people with only rudimentary treatment knowledge claim to be authorities on an infection they have not even studied for 20 hours, the typical position of those commenting on the syphilis-related Lyme spirochete is that Lyme is very rarely involved in excess rage, agitation, and aggression.
Think of people you know or people you have read about. No one ever considers Lyme, Bartonella, or Babesia as a cause for psychiatric disease.
That is no surprise because Lyme is dismissed as easily as wiping up a spill with a paper towel.
14 days cures it. WHEN IT ONLY REPRODUCES ONCE IN 4 WEEKS.
They never mention that Lyme has a protective round body or nut form, because they have no interest in studying it, so the active form is alone and dispatched with doxy or amoxicillin. Rocephin is mighty and cures in a month.
But why would you ever need Rocephin if Doxycycline is always curative? And this IV treatment (which can be IM to save your veins) also only kills the active form!
Psychiatrists and neurologists never consider Lyme involved with rage, agitation, and aggression because they know nothing about it.
So even with over 32 pages of single-space peer-reviewed research showing Lyme does impact psychiatry and neurology, the only ones who will read that are those open to learning it. I read it. You? Your doctor? They have no time with medicine doubling every 2 years.
And if they ever consider it, they use ancient ELISA and Western Blot technology that is poor and only detects one narrow Borrelia or corkscrew germ, when others are profound illness makers.
So when the veteran who grew up hunting has 30 military doctors unable to find “what is wrong with him,” and he is quickly threatened with a joke idea—when told it is a joke idea—and he threatens to assault a nurse “silently and undetected,” this is the type of thing I have seen for decades.
The only issue is what Bartonella, and the less common Lyme and Babesia, will do when they fill every millimeter of his brain and also cause inflammation. With so many strains, species, and genetically variable body types, will this lead to schizophrenia? Suicide? Assault? Punching walls? Yelling? Cursing? Avoidance? Narcissism? Empathic failure? Or 50 other manifestations of mood and behavior?
In this emerging infection area, you have the highly elite precise clinicians mastering about ten main infections monthly, while those taught 700 infections only hear Arabic on this topic from a couple thousand like me. They are mystified by people like me who have studied this 45,000 hours in my own self-funded research which only resulted in 12+ books on this topic.
FOR THE NEXT 40 YEARS YOU WILL SEE PSYCHIATRIC PATHOLOGICAL BEHAVIOR AND NONE OF THEIR DOCTORS OR FAMILY WILL TYPICALLY THINK THESE COULD BE A CAUSE.
