The treatment kills Bartonella, Babesia, and Lyme so you are not undertreated years, and get ill. Since almost all our patients have been previously treated with Lyme-literate doctors it is sad to see so many patients wasting time, money, and function due to ignorance

Good evidence shows that components of Borrelia burgdorferi can remain detectable after organisms have been killed or rendered nonviable, but the evidence is much stronger for some components than others. Importantly, detecting these materials does not by itself demonstrate persistent viable infection.
