Medical Misfit

The head of the FDA, Dr. Marty Makary, is on the chopping block for standing up to Big Pharma.

FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary is reportedly on the chopping block. The media calls him “tumultuous,” but let’s look at his actual record: He banned Big Pharma employees from FDA advisory committees, cracked down on misleading drug ads, and exposed the hidden history of trials that showed saturated fat was preferable to polyunsaturated fats. He kicked the foxes out of the henhouse — and now the system is striking back. This isn’t politics; it’s a corporate hit job. Watch the full breakdown and share this before they force him out quietly. #MartyMakary #FDA #BigPharma #HealthcareCorruption #MedicalFreedom

MyLymeData, the first national large-scale study of Lyme disease, is powering a study of neurological Lyme symptoms that's supported by a federal grant of over $700,000. This study is implementing AI-driven research to define, diagnose, and treat neurological Lyme disease using data from the MyLymeData database.

Part of the problem with identifying and treating Lyme disease is due to a lack of information about the disease. The trials that have been conducted about Lyme have been small and the criteria to establish participants have been restrictive, possibly excluding typical Lyme patients. In addition, with no new trials in the pipeline, it leaves millions without direction. MyLymeData intends to bridge the data gap by collecting data from Lyme patients which will then be analyzed and dispersed throughout the community as white papers and peer-reviewed articles by Lymedisease.org.

I just registered and filled out my surveys about my experience with neurological Lyme disease. If you have Lyme and would also like to contribute, please visit https://www.mylymedata.org/

I will be doing a free online webinar next Tuesday May 12 at 7:30 pm EST with the CO TBD Association and sponsored by other Lyme associations including lymedisease.org
I will be discussing my recent published research in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease Reports and how 8-9 weeks of dapsone combination therapy and addressing MSIDS variables has lowered and reversed the most sensitive Alzheimer's biomarker, p-tau 217 for the first time. This has massive implications during two overlapping epidemics, Lyme and Alzheimer's disease.
Over 2000 people have already signed up! The first 1000 will go into the Zoom room and the rest can watch it on FB live. You will not want to miss this! I will also be taking questions at the end of the presentation. Point your camera at the enclosed QR code to sign up for free. Hope to see you there!

The free, DT Healing Lyme Summit, The Neuroinflammation Brain Protection Summit starts tomorrow! Why consider attending?
There are 55 million people worldwide now with Alzheimer's disease with a 42% average risk of dementia over 55 years old. Lyme disease has been linked to dementia in multiple autopsy studies and now in a live patient for the first time, in my recent article published in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease Reports:

Lyme Treatment Reverses Alzheimer's Markers in Groundbreaking Case Study

Rates of Medicare patients with Lyme disease are 7x higher than the general population while we are in the middle of a tick-borne epidemic. This puts many people at risk for cognitive difficulties as they get older. Come learn about new groundbreaking research in the field so you can protect yourself and your loved ones.

Shame on them.

They work for us. They can no longer protect agro chemical companies interests over the health of American families and get away with it. And we proved that today! You vote against our health? We vote you out of office. Simple as that! People don’t forget!

Pfizer has created a vaccine for Lyme disease that has a 70% efficacy rate, and the national media is finally asking Lyme patients what they think. Well, at least they asked us what we thought this time, which is monumental on its own.

There's a lot wrong here. Lyme disease usually comes with a host of other infections, which are not prevented by this vaccine. If I've learned anything over the last 20 years, it's that the answer to complex issues like environmental factors isn't found in more products from Big Pharma. This feels like another money grab from a sector that already has a chokehold on the US.
