I attended a webinar he put on Tuesday evening. I don't believe it's against forum rules to share this as he is not selling anything. It's a Q&A.

I just went to the link and clicked on the article link for "Can Lyme disease be spread by kissing, pregnancy, or sexual contact?" In the article, Rawls states "In addition, trans-utero spread (across the placenta during pregnancy) has not been scientifically documented." WHAT??? I know I've read that mothers can transmit Lyme to newborns. I just googled it and found numerous journal reports documented actual cases. What does he mean it hasn't been scientifically documented?

I'm perplexed by that as well!

Maybe his training was from the CDC:

/www.cdc.gov/lyme/transmission/index.html

"There is no evidence that Lyme disease is transmitted from person-to-person. For example, a person cannot get infected from touching, kissing, or having sex with a person who has Lyme disease."

This is the point where I scream...

I just listened to part of the session. I listened to his response on whether infections, etc. needed to be treated in a certain order. He said it didn't because the symptoms were not caused by the individual microbes but instead by immune dysfunction (my paraphrase). I understand that immune dysfunction is the driver, but the different microbes cause different sets of symptoms. For example, only bartonella causes stretch marks/striae. I know people who had bartonella have said their marks went away after they finished bartonella treatment. Well, all the Lyme treatment in world isn't going to make bartonella go away is it? Am I wrong in my understanding of all this?

The second bullet on the CDC site says this:

Lyme disease acquired during pregnancy may lead to infection of the placenta and possible stillbirth; however, no negative effects on the fetus have been found when the mother receives appropriate antibiotic treatment. There are no reports of Lyme disease transmission from breast milk.

So, even the CDC acknowledges a mother can pass it to a baby in the womb, right?

No, you're not wrong.


I don't think his formulas have co-infection treatments, do they? (am I rememberin correctly?)

You're exactly right. I saw that, too, but I'm agitated at the moment and figured mentioning it might cause me to go off the deep end on a rant. smile So, thank you for quoting it.

WOW!!! I have his book, Unlocking Lyme, and I really like it and find it helpful. I like Dr Rawls, too. Reading his story on his website was one of the first positive, hopeful things I read about Lyme and led me to Stephen Buhner's protocol. But, MAN, you really have to listen and read carefully. There is so much conflicting and confusing information out there. Makes me wonder if anything I read or hear about Lyme is really true or accurate.

Totally true. That's why I was agitated, as I mentioned in my previous comment.
