With sadness we see the departure of Dr. Alison Bested from the Chronic Complex Diseases Program. I was very grateful for the chance to present three cases of third stage Lyme disease all residents from B.C.referred to three B.C. Infectious disease specialists. All three were treated with one month of intravenous medication by the specialists and all three failed to improve. These patients were subsequently treated with three months of intravenous medications and they are now leading a normal life. (these cases are available for viewing on YouTube). The medical profession condemns the proper treatment of chronic Lyme Disease and refer to it as a syndrome and not an infection and a serious fear factor is present in our association. My medical class-mate Dr. Pat McGeer has done research and was able to culture live spirochetes of Borrelia burgdorferi on post mortems of Alzheimer cases. Journal of Neurorinflammation Sept , 2008.. My personal wish is that we share our knowledge and sit at one table and compare notes, otherwise the politicians will have to pass laws preventing the harassment of doctors as it has been done in fifteen American States.
