Thanks. I'll be looking into these. The GI doctors affiliated with my clinic are also active in research for Crohn's, IBD, and related illnesses. I'll have to ask them about some of this.
Don't expect too much. The odd spore-like forms of the bacteria are well known to docs, but they were taught that they are harmless. I asked the infectious disease specialist I was going to for sarcoid, and he thought that maybe it might at most have some placebo effect. So I found another doc, an arthritis specialist who is used to trying different things to see what works (the approved list of RA remedies is quite lengthy, and indication that they've little clue about the real cause).
This might take another 10 years to get accepted, if it follows the example of the ulcer cure. So, the approach was to publish it, and try a grassroots experiment, and get a cohort of people cured of these previously incurable diseases.
A lot of people have had to switch doc's to find one who would give the MP a try.
If you want more info, there's .ram and .wmv files of Dr Marshall Trevors lectures at a Lyme conference, http://www.ctlymedisease.org/videoclips.htm, Borrellia being one of the common infections in a lot of auto-immune problems.
Good luck!
