This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Knowledge & Support Community

Gogo, Sarah is one of many, many people who has recovered. I don't know why you keep insisting she is alone. I have recovered. Many people who learned about abx here have recovered. Most of us don't post here anymore, because the CPn Help website is devoted solely to cpn, while this site is far mor...

If this was developed and became standard,then decades down the line people would start wondering why heart disease was diminishing and why far fewr people developed MS or asthhma or one of the other things on my list. Sarah Of course. But first it has to be proved that Cpn is the causative factor....

Cureo, my neurologist refused to look at my improved scans because he didn't order them, likewise the Cambridge MS people because they were only interested in their Campath work. Should I have waited for an appropriate double blind trial? It was nearly nine years ago that he literally ran out of th...

Hopefully the patient would be able to feel the change, but it is considered more scientific to have an independent measure of improvements or deterioration; and hence we have double blind trials that are not self reported. Cure, I have to agree with you again. I think it is important that results ...

People react like I am asking about Leatril or some other hoax treatment when I try to discuss it. Even Vanderbilt Clinic won't directly admit to research in this area, and the only reference I can find online from them is a brief statement on the "compassionate use of antibiotics in the treat...

Marco, I only heard about Anecdote's case that seems a real recovery. There are two or three people here who claim some improvements, but to my knowledge no neuro verified them. As you know with MS there are ups and downs, so without neuro it is hard to say if someone's improvements are real for eve...

My dream is that in future a vaccine would be available not just for a proven infection but something given as standard in the same way that I was given a vaccine against tuberculosis at school, when I was about thirteen and David, being a few years older was given a vaccination against smallpox. N...

MacKintosh does not usually check in here more than once a week, now that she is so nicely recovered. :wink: MacKintos, good to hear that you recovered. Would you please tell us about your story? What was your status before starting the abx and what is now? What did your neuro said? Are you RRMS? A...

Anecdote wrote:Thanks JL, that could well be why I haven't had a cold for the last ten years!

So, Anecdote, we do not need vaccine against Cpn? Things are solved by taking selenium and zink.

“This protein is highly expressed in lesions of MS, especially active lesions,” prompting an inflammatory response, Curtin told BioWorld Today. Data collected by the company since its inception suggest 75 percent of MS patients express MSRV-Env, “which represents a very exciting target for treatmen...

Anecdote wrote: they chose EBV, which is soooo old hat, but threw in a few retro viruses for a change!

Anecdote, why are you so hostile to the idea of virus causing MS????? Trials just started.

not much said about MS and Cpn connection in the interview. It might have slipped my attention, but I heard only half a sentence as a plausability about it. If you look around only in tims, you will see that there are lots of different theories about what causing MS. Germs are a possible factors, bu...

I BELIEVE IT IS IRRESPONSIBLE TO ADVISE PEOPLE WITH MS NOT TO TAKE A DMD. This needs to shouted out on this site. I'm new but already I've noticed a strong tendency towards pseudoscience on this site. Reminds me of the nonsense anti-vaxxers spout. Maybe we can get Jenny McCarthy to "cure"...

I would be happy to see any study with 200 people with MS who went through Cpn test and antibiotics treatment. So would I, Gogo: I thought once that the people at Bart's might do it but no, they chose EBV, which is soooo old hat, but threw in a few retro viruses for a change! Sarah Whether Cpn or r...

- Whilst an immune response has been proven beyond doubt to play a role in MS, there is growing evidence that it can not explain the whole picture. Moreover, a growing number of scientists believe that the immune response is indeed exactly that; an 'immune response' to something else that is going ...
