reminder to self to complete

I could not find this on the cpnⁱ forum

Can some please give me the web sites for the best test to try for a positive test for chlamydia? I would like to take it to my doctor to see if she would do the protocol.  Thank you chipper

I haven't had much time to post here lately. I have been busy settling my mother's estate and working. Two days after she died, I came down with another whopping respiratory infection. Just got over one in October. I am still coughing up gunk a month later. I was pretty depressed but then started journaling in the mornings. I even journal in the sauna--kind of hard when you get sweaty to hold onto the pen,though. I am starting to feel better emotionally and feel the benefits of journaling.

I did a search on the site and scanned the handbook.  I was looking to find a statement like, "CPnⁱ enters the body through the lungs, therefore you must have had pneumoiaⁱ as an initial means to longterm infection."  But, I couldn't find something that clearly said that.  Are their ways to get longterm CPn infection without having had pneumoia?  Are their papers on this?  I'm having trouble with this seemingly simple question.  Ken

I hope I'm posting this in the right place. I have been telling my story to every type specialist in the books until now. I'm praying my new docs are on the right track.

hi

A very good podcast on Chlamydias by two of the top researchers in the area, Elizabeth Stuart and Wilmore Webley at UMass. They discuss the relationship to cardiac disease, some relationship of Chlam T to cervical cancer, and both Chlam T and Cpnⁱ to asthmaⁱ in children. 70% of pediatric asthma patients they tested have Chlamydia, with sexually transmitted version and respiratory version (Cpn) at about 50-50. Very important work.

For the past week I have been struggling with what appears to feel like a chest cold (or those  CPNⁱ elementary bodies are reactivated?)  This is such a strange feeling, in that, even though I have been "sick" with all the repercussions of the protocol, I haven't had anything like a cold, flu, or viral type illness since being on CAPⁱ.  I have been running a low grade fever, coughing and feeling very flu-like.  Considering I don't get out of the house much, if it is viral my husband probably brought it home.

I recently had a blood test done for Cpnⁱ panel to see what I could learn. I realize these tests are not considered accurate. But I was curious & had the opportunity ... so why not?

The panel included C. trachomatis, C. pneumoniae & C. psittaci.

Both the C. trachomatis and C. psittaci results came back normal reference range and said "ANTIBODY NOT DETECTED".

However the C. pneumoniae came back marked high on two fronts.

IgG  1:512 H   (reference range: 1:64)

IgA   1:64  H    (reference range: 1:16)

IgM <1:10

Interpretation = PAST INFECTION

This is the news:  In England, possible antibioticsⁱ to be sold over the counter, to treat CHLAMYDIA!

This is the story form http://www.guardian.co.uk/society/2008/aug/06/health

Oral antibiotics are to be made available for the first time without doctor's prescription under guidelines approved yesterday by the medicines regulator.

A pill to treat chlamydia, the most commonly diagnosed sexually transmitted infection, will become available for purchase in pharmacies across England later this year.
