Lyme disease, Antibiotics/damage/negative effects

FCT: Treating Lyme and All Infections the Simple Way

© By Savely Yurkovsky, MD

Quoting retired Harvard biology professor Edward O. Wilson, PhD,¹ that scientists enjoy falling in love with their ideas, this article is to sound the alarm about Lyme disease. While Professor Wilson also stated that a lifetime of most ideas does not exceed a few seconds because they are unviable, the ones about Lyme disease have managed to extend their natural life span and taken themselves to an even more dangerous level. This is well reflected in a recent book of a ‘leading Lyme disease specialist’ who, like the rest of them, calls for even more antibiotics and other toxic drugs to kill Lyme and co-infections than before.² This only magnifies the vicious circle created by antibiotics in all chronic infections since health cannot be restored by the very means that destroy it. Even the reputable infectious disease specialists have realized this problem. One of these, professor of infectious diseases at NYU and former president of the Infectious Disease Society of America, Martin J. Blaser, MD, published a well-referenced book on health-destroying effects of antibiotics, leading to a long list of chronic diseases.³ Even the discoverer of antibiotics, Professor Alexander Fleming, MD, forewarned in his Nobel Prize acceptance speech as long back as in 1945, that microbes will outwit antibiotics, which are to be used with great caution to prevent deadlier infections than the original, due to mutations.

Yet, while pharmaceutical medicine is capable of making sound statements, it is completely incapable of offering physicians sound alternatives. As a result, the words went out the window and the prophecy has come to pass where our federal healthcare agencies have been sounding the alarm about a mounting number of antibiotic-resistant strains keeping millions of people sick and killing 23,000 Americans annually. But in the absence of a better means to harness infections, medical practitioners have continued the antibiotic onslaught; and the death toll has skyrocketed to 162,000 a year, according to the latest statistics. However, on top of this, there is another death toll in progress as the result of another pharmaceutical killing spree, which is also widely utilized by the Lyme “literate specialists.” This concerns killing yeast microorganisms in the gut with antifungal drugs, herbs, and other pharmaceuticals. This book’s author presents it as another act of medical wisdom that amounts to undoing the damage of one rat poison, antibiotics, which cause fungal infections, by another—antifungals.

For years, FCT has been stating that rotating rat poisons will only add more aggressive, mutated, and systemic fungal infections on top of bacterial or parasitic ones. This isn’t the heck of a prophecy, but an elementary evolutionary fact that mutations or adaptations of microbes to hostile impacts have endowed them with the billions of years of survival long before our ancestors, monkeys, even showed up. Not surprisingly, the scientific literature started warning about another time bomb in the making, candida species and mold displaying genetic mutations with decreased sensitivity to an antifungal drug, yet not offering better alternative.⁴ As a result the antifungal pharmaceutical onslaught has gone on, and so off the bomb. The major media has just reported the outcome of its explosion, a lethal epidemic in the US and worldwide, killing thousands by a mutated Candida auris that can’t be stopped by any antifungal drugs.⁵ It spreads all over medical facilities, furniture, furnishings, walls, windows, and equipment. The hospitals keep it a secret for fear of scaring potential patients. Those few infectious disease specialists who did divulge this information have said that they are scared for their own lives when treating these patients, and blame this on antifungal drugs. Yes, those popular Nystatin, Diflucan, caprylic acid, antifungal herbs and other yeast killers that Lyme specialists and other practitioners dispense.

Although antifungal treatments weaponize fungal infections, yeasts, in spite of their bad reputation, happen to be our internal allies, like other gut flora, too.Their ability to produce useful nutrients as well as killer toxins against hostile bacteria has been established.⁶ Since all biochemical pharmaceutical approaches in chronic diseases operate blindly, where they can neither know the primary causes of disease nor the extent of the harm of their treatments, the vicious cycle created by rat poisons of Lyme treatments has no end in the common approach marketed by the book. The approach makes allegedly concerted efforts to fix mitochondria with one set of pills, which are ineffective, yet use antibiotics that destroy the mitochondria; our mitochondrial DNA contains bacteria and DNA.^7-11 Other drugs offered that destroy mitochondria are steroids, anti-inflammatories, and psychotropics. Cells of the immune organs and tissues have mitochondria too. How would destroying these cells help one’s immune system to ever defeat Lyme? Worry not, as there are more pills on the way for the immune system?!! (Help me, Mama!)

While one of the main goals of Lyme treatment is relief from pain and its sufferings, the most devastating of all antibiotics, fluroquinolones are offered too, which are known to inflict horrendous pain, due to neurological damage, that has driven thousands to commit suicide and hundreds of thousands, worldwide, to become invalids. This compelled the FDA to mark this rat poison with the black box warning. While the good specialists tell us that they need so many and even the most toxic antibiotics to penetrate biofilms, scientific literature advises us that fungal infections, which antibiotics foster, promote growth of bacterial biofilms–thus, leading to another oxymoron.

Other relevant side effects of antibiotics include damage to kidneys—the very organ that is supposed to function well in order to excrete loads of mercury and other toxic metals mobilized from the tissues into the blood stream by the prescribed chelating agents. While this therapeutic goal is very important, its actual process has been grossly oversimplified and misrepresented. It is viewed as some special chelating-binding or detoxifying substance loaded in a tank of a toilet that once is flushed, all the bad things or metals would be jetted out of the body through a powerful stream.

Yet, the real setting of flushing in a human body amounts to thousands of mini-streams circulating through internal organs and tissues where portions of metals become stuck. Which exact organs are affected, neither the lab tests nor the flushing doctors can tell. These organs, if already sick, become sicker; if healthy, they turn sick, with the kidneys being the primary potential victim. In the science of toxicology, dumping or redistribution of metals may damage mitochondria and the immune organs, too.

Scientific research has uncovered even more destructive effects of antibiotics, which “special Lyme protocols” do not mention. These are cancer, through mitochondrial damage and increase in free radical production, with the latter leading to another tripping over one’s feet act.^{12, 13} As pharmaceutical medicine offers “nutraceuticals” or antioxidants to reduce this risk, science reports that these impair antibiotics’ power to kill infections as well as stimulate the immune system by free radicals. For the record, improper timing of administered probiotics decreases the potency of antibiotics, too. Besides, we have barely a few dozen probiotics to replace the thousands of strains of bacterial flora, which may disappear for good. due to antibiotics use. More inconvenient truth for Lyme “specialists” and their victims. “Previously, it was thought the antibiotics only killed gut bacteria and blocked some immune functions in the gut. But the new study shows they also destroy cells in the intestinal epithelium.”¹⁴ Destroyed intestinal epithelium and gut flora, along with flourished fungal infections, lead to another disaster, leaky gut, which requires more “wise” treatments with loads of pills. These and many other examples of blindly chasing one’s own tail are concealed with hyped test reports, presented as “comprehensive panels,” some 16 Point Differential Diagnostic Map, and impressive functional medicine “individual profiles.”

In reality, all of these only add to an already huge pile of symptoms without having anything to do with individual real causes of disease. Instead, determine which exact poisons render the patient vulnerable to these infections and which specific organs these poisons, microbes, and other morbid factors have invaded—not the least of which are the noxious environmental factors and therapeutic agents that continue re-poisoning the body in the process of treatment, thus, rendering it obsolete. If any map is necessary here, it is to determine the correct therapeutic hierarchy between the detected main causes and which treatments and measures are truly effective to address all of these. For this, one needs to go beyond serious limitations of lab tests and extract this information directly from the internal organs. Without such capable diagnostic and therapeutic means to address all of these key issues, the “specialist,” in spite of using many words having something to do with science, ends up presenting only counterfeits of Lyme cure.

One of these, a patient named Larry, whose entire “success story” lasted only for one visit, preceded by being loaded with steroids and still consuming a slew of pills and intravenous antibiotics. Following this we never hear of Larry again, until I met him in my office years later, in an indescribable state of health, destroyed more by the treatment than Lyme infection itself. It is to the point where he fights suicidal thoughts 24/7 due to inhumane sufferings. This drug destruction of the body is the prevailing general pattern of Lyme treatments, which have mushroomed through “progressive” clinics country wide. One of their patients, a high-ranking corporate executive, shared with me that he was surprised to see how these clinics produce deceptive marketing by filming endorsements from patients who are still hooked to intravenous drugs. It is a travesty that Lyme foundations poison their members with “specialists” and books like these.

Addressing Acute, Chronic and Mutated Lyme and Co-Infections the Simple Way

Out of respect for infections’ ability to mutate, FCT allows only the patient’s own immune system to do the killing, at its own pace, as the treatment stimulates its recovery. This also develops a much higher resistance to future tick bites, which usually jumpstart the disease, even after years of antibiotic treatment. The simplicity of FCT is carried out with a realization of the opportunistic nature of infections; they don’t make someone sick by infecting them—someone must be already sick in order to be infected.

This sick state is present even in seemingly robust, “healthy” people, joggers, and other avid exercise lovers whose high energy level, thanks to their genetically strong endocrine system, is confused with healthy immunity. Yet, I have seen quite a few of them who, like the rest of Lyme patients, have succumbed to the tick overnight and become endlessly ill even after years of Lyme treatments.

It takes only minutes to determine the reasons for vulnerability to infections by screening the immune, endocrine, excretory, detoxifying, brain, and other organs for exact poisons, infections, electrocutions, toxic drugs, and other relevant morbid factors through a bio-resonance testing. The therapeutic priorities between sick organs and their primary causes are determined based on the order of these displaying themselves by individual patients’ bodies and is guided by a practitioner’s knowledge and experience.

The main treatment consists only of specific homeopathic energetic signals that direct and stimulate specific immune and other organs to begin releasing the main causes of their malfunction. Specific signals also stimulate their repair and help to prevent the dumping or redistribution of mercury and other toxic metals in the course of their detoxification. The key environmental precaution in this process is to drastically reduce electromagnetic exposure, as well as its destructive impact on the brain, immune organs, and the rest of the body through Memon technology.

The most common cause of malfunctioning immune organs are mercury, other heavy metals, organic pollutants, antibiotics and, sometimes, antimalarial and antibacterial drugs that are senselessly employed to kill cystic forms and biofilms of Lyme and co-infections. I have presented the cured cases of Lyme disease by FCT prior, in this publication, and am presenting briefly a few more of the new patients. For the record I don’t specialize in Lyme or any disease but only in their causes; and that is why this formal non-specialty makes the approach far more successful than any specialty. As the aforementioned Professor Wilson stated, successful algorithms require far less formal knowledge.

Case 1: A young woman after years of antibiotics, other drugs, and supplements for Lyme disease. “I would not have survived this last year without your amazing medical intervention. Thank you so much for work that you do.”

Case 2: A middle-aged woman after years of antibiotics, intravenous ozone, other drugs, and supplements for Lyme disease. Following a single FCT treatment: “ I am about 80 percent improved!!!!!!… I do have a good amount of energy during the day now for the first time… I did two autohemotherapy/ozone treatments when I first got back from the East Coast but have not needed them since (which is remarkable!). “

Case 3: An elderly woman with 20 years of fibromyalgia and after 17 years of Lyme treatments with antibiotics, off and on, and you name it. At her first visit, she could barely walk with a cane and was getting out of breath after only five steps. After two FCT treatments: “I can’t even tell you how much better I feel. I just sanded the whole floor in my house that I wouldn’t even dream of doing it before. Also, I help out other people. For me to do this, I must have enough energy.” Her cane was gone, pains much lessened, and walking distance greatly increased. After her next/third treatment: “It’s been astronomical progress. I can’t express it. It’s been an amazing experience. From four antibiotics before I came here, to none.”

Case 4: A middle-aged woman after years of antibiotics and God knows what treatments for Lyme. She was cured by FCT and was surprised that when she found a Lyme tick on her, it did not produce Lyme symptoms, as it had been always the case before.

Case 5: A young woman treated for years for Lyme and co-infection with antibiotics and a virtual Yellow Pages of Lyme interventions. She made dramatic progress in her quality of life on FCT, yet some problems have uncharacteristically continued to linger. This is usually the case when people get re-poisoned through food, water, environment or other treatments. In her case, one of these was “rich in mineral salts” that contained mercury, and her house as pinpointed by bio-resonance testing. However, she kept denying that the house might have been the source. In this regard, this email of hers is of interest:

Following this email, I advised her that I canceled my appointment with a psychiatrist.

Conclusion

We need to learn how to properly diagnose and treat primary causes of Lyme disease because this is what ultimately defeats it.

About the Author

Savely Yurkovsky, MD, is board-certified in internal medicine and board-eligible in cardiovascular medicine. He undertook a particular interest in mercury toxicity as both its victim and a clinician managing a busy private practice. Shortly after moving to the US from the former Soviet Union, he received several silver amalgam fillings, which he recognized later as the cause of his mounting health problems. These problems persisted despite removal of fillings, which prompted him to explore various mercury-detoxifying approaches: oral, intravenous, homeopathic. After observing their corresponding partial benefits, limitations, and aggravations on himself and his patients, he resorted to bioresonance testing and causative homeopathy, based on relevant knowledge from physics and toxicology to optimize benefits and safety of the detoxification. The guidance of his physics consultant, the Stanford University materials science professor William A. Tiller, PhD, was instrumental in the enhancing diagnostic ability of bioresonance testing to address the known limitations of lab tests to detect the presence of toxicants in the internal organs. This testing also was used to draw a better comparative capacity between various mercury detoxifying treatments as well as to evolve a safer therapeutic strategy leading to minimize the re-intoxication or dumping effect which are common to these treatments. Bioresonance testing also optimizes the unlimited therapeutic potential of homeopathy that has a unique capacity to therapeutically connect with any organ and tissue, via specific signals, as no other treatment can.

His book, Biological, Chemical, and Nuclear Warfare – Protecting Yourself and Your Loved Ones: The Power of Digital Medicine, has been endorsed by Professor Emeritus William A. Tiller, PhD, of Stanford University and IT Physics Professor George Pugh, PhD.
