This
article is based on the novel medical system – Guided
Digital Medicine™, which operates diagnostically and therapeutically
on the
most fundamental level of Man's body – Energy. Its author,
Savely Yurkovsky, MD, is internationally known as a teacher and expert
in Bioenergetic Medicine. His recent extraordinary book, Biological,
Chemical, and Nuclear Warfare – Protecting Yourself and Your
Loved Ones: The Power of Digital Medicine, presents fascinating clinical
cases and scientific basis that explain the nature and the tremendous
power of this system in all diseases.
"Le microbe n'est rien, le terrain
est tout"

Louis Pasteur

Conceptual
Considerations
Since its first detection in 1975, Lyme disease has become increasingly
recognized as one of the most vicious, common, and resistant infections
of our day. Moreover, thanks to serious deficiencies in medicine
and, most importantly, a lack of proper understanding of the background
state concerning the reactor to an infection (i.e., the patient),
Lyme
has evolved into a wide spectrum of chronic diseases. Today, besides
its well-known skin and arthritic afflictions, it presents itself
through a polymorphic picture that is anticipated the least and missed
commonly
by the medical community: opthalmological, cardiac, neurological,
and even emotion and mental afflictions. As a member of a spirochete
family
that has begot Treponema Pallidum, the originator of the great masquerader,
syphilis, Lyme's Borrelia burgdorferi (Bb) is capable of staging
just as diverse pathological acts. Table 1 attests to the diversity
of Bb's
effects.

One should also not neglect suspecting Lyme disease in children with
inexplicable mood swings or changes in behavior. In children or adults,
the characteristic skin bull's eye lesion or joint complaints need
not be present.
All in all, Lyme has been found to mimic over 40 diseases. To complicate
matters even further, it is also known for the huge variety of its
strains; a long-latent symptom-free period (up to even years from the
day of infection); an ability to mutate and break down cellular barriers;
an ability to penetrate and exist deep in the tissues; a capacity to
not only elude immune surveillance but cause severe immunosuppression
itself, which would lead to secondary infections, confusing the clinical
picture entirely. As a result, the Bb often evades standard laboratory
detection. It shields itself skillfully from antibiotic bombardments,
and, even when it seems to have succumbed to the latter, Bb is able
to resurge weeks, months, or even years later in as many as up to 50%
of treated cases. Needless to say, these properties made this infection
one of the most misleading to suspect, most elusive to detect, and
most challenging to treat even for the experienced Lyme's specialists
who often find themselves defeated by the crafty germ.
Not surprisingly, treatment strategies are being constantly tossed
and changed in order to find some way out of the therapeutic deadlocks,
where antibiotic
regimens become exponentially stretched to run even for months at a time. Holistically
minded practitioners endeavor to enhance the antibiotic regimens by adding
herbal or other natural substances aimed at immune enhancement or spirochete-killing
actions, but the outcomes, still, remain erratic at best. Why? And why doesn't
a prolongation of antibiotic regimens amount to a radical difference in the
outcomes against Lyme disease, even when, in the short run, the response appears
to be encouraging? Such an approach doesn't work because it is based
on the fundamentally flawed and myopic medical model that has spawned conceptually
primitive decisions to accomplish the objective. One might refer to this flawed
allopathic model as a Petri dish mentality that has also failed with all chronic
diseases. It naively purports an existence of and focuses exclusively on just
two isolated factors: a perceived culprit, let it be a microbe, cholesterol,
autoimmune, inflammatory, or allergenic process, on one hand; and a therapeutic
agent to attack the "demon," on the other. What are the chief conceptual
shortcomings of such an agenda, and why did the renowned Louis Pasteur himself,
the discoverer of microbes, state emphatically, "The microbe is nothing,
the terrain is everything"?
Even if we are to examine such a simple entity as a Petri dish itself – never
mind the human body with its 50 trillion cells and unfathomable interrelationships
between them – inescapably, we face the fact that any germ can only take
in the media that it finds favorable for its growth. This simple observation,
per se, makes the equation of Borrelia burgdorferi = Lyme disease incomplete
at best. For even the history of lethal epidemics, such as cholera, typhus,
plague, and others, attests that many among the exposed were spared.
What are the main favorable factors, one might ask, for rendering Bb's cultivation
within the human body, and why does only a limited populace out of all who
are exposed to the spirochete get the disease? The answer is obvious: immunocompromised
state. How does this state come about? Several factors – chief among
these, toxicological agents that undermine the immune system directly by invading
the organs that are supposed to produce defense agents against Lyme, other
microbes, and cancer cells – produce this state. Also, overburdened and
inefficient immunity can come about due to chronic infections, with candidiasis
and parasitosis being the most common, thanks to the compromised gut immunity
and flora due to the onslaught of antibiotics as well as foods rich in refined
carbohydrates, sugar (and its substitutes), and preservatives. Other indirect
means to compromise one's immunity play a large role, also. Among these would
be a compromised endocrine system – the main powerhouse of the entire
body, including the immune organs. Endocrine glands are usually impaired by
the same toxicological agents, chronic infections (due to overtime support
of the immune system), and the most prevalent and invisible among these – candidiasis – as
well as by faulty (junk food) diet, lack of sleep and rest in general, or undue
stress level.
The continuous and skyrocketing load of electromagnetic pollution in our daily
environment is not to be discounted either as it is known to alter DNA structure,
act as a major stressor, and interact also with toxicological agents – heavy
metals and mercury, in particular – harbored within the body. Certainly,
in children, one is not to neglect the ever-increasing burden of vaccinations
which, even very recently, have contained poisonous organic mercury, thimerosal,
and still contain other toxic substances.
How common, one may (and should) challenge the author, is the incidence of
toxicological agents being present in the body? According to the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA), traces of toxic chemicals, including outright carcinogens,
have been found in the bodies of practically every average American. The National
Cancer Institute (NCI) believes that at least 98% of all cancers are caused,
indeed, by these agents as a result of immunosuppression and DNA damage. From
the experience of this author, 100% of children born to mothers who had mercury
fillings prior to conception are all born with mercury in their bodies that
never leaves them. Furthermore, the storage of that mercury is augmented via
practically unavoidable mercury fillings and consumption of contaminated seafood.
Lead, another common and potent immunosuppressant, is also known to cross the
placenta and lodge in the body of newborns. In addition, both mercury and lead
and other organic chemicals are richly present in mother's milk.
A word on some successful responses (initially, at least) to antibiotic therapy,
primarily in acute stages of Lyme Disease. This population was, apparently,
sufficiently immuno-compromised to develop the disease, yet the decline in
immunity was mild enough so that they were able to regain control following
the course of an antimicrobial agent. Still, knowing the ability of Bb to remain
dormant in the body for an indefinite period of time, these individuals, on
the whole, are in a constant risk of Lyme's resurgence, particularly once the
spirochete senses a decline in immune vigilance. Furthermore, I consider antibiotic
regimens themselves, in the long run, as a major factor in the decline of health,
a promoter of chronic disease in general, and a potent trigger behind a recurrence
of many chronic infections.
So far, the only study that I know supports some of these contentions is a
study that has correlated an incidence of breast cancer and frequency of antibiotic
regimens in women. In general, I liken antibiotic treatments to loans with
negative amortization; one is under the illusion of getting ahead while making
the payments, yet one becomes very surprised one day when an even bigger debt
returns to haunt him. Profound, inevitable, and destructive candidiasis, a
serious subject for another discussion, is our equivalent of the "negative
amortization" in cases of infections being treated with antibiotics.
Guided Digital Medicine Management of Lyme Disease
Guided Digital Medicine Management of Lyme Disease consists of four
main components :
Stage I
Component
#1 is Bioresonance Testing, which aims at identification of all possible
immunosuppressive and energy-draining agents being
present in the body. These also include residues of antibiotics.
Component #2 assigns the respective priorities in the treatment as
it sorts out the primary key toxins, those that have to be addressed
and in what sequence, vs. the secondary, less important ones, which
will dissipate on their own.
Component #3 is composed of homeopathic remedies (not classical
or mixed/complex kind), which aim at clearing the main offending
agents
while supporting all the weak and other organs which, according
to the testing, are vulnerable to either being reintoxicated
or having
a shift of toxic agents (unfortunately, a common occurrence
in prevailing "detox" regimens).
Component #4 addresses blocks and potential blocks to the treatment:
diet, reduction of electromagnetic pollution, emotional stress,
etc.
Stage II: Further decrease of immune burden and
augmentation of energy reserve
Treatment of opportunistic yeast and parasitic infections primarily
with the same novel homeopathic system. This also is accompanied
with adequate and multiple organ support to prevent reinvasion
by the anticipated
release of heavy metals due to yeast's die off. This is owed
to a rather obscure phenomenon of fungi's ability to bind metals.
Stage III (and the easiest): Treating Lyme itself
Homeopathic isodes, prepared of Bb, itself, in ascending potencies
are administered, only a few times, as guided by the bioresonance
testing
Stage IV
Periodic maintenance testing/treatments and not only so much
against Lyme itself but as a general preventative measure against
the morbid
factors which, in the long run, if allowed to amass, would inevitably
lead to the development of chronic degenerative diseases.
A Sample
of Patient Cases
Case #1
History: A young gifted man in his early twenties with a history of Lyme disease
for 11 years was treated with massive antibiotics for a five-month period and
still has Lyme disease and many symptoms which are ascribed to it: severe depression,
anxiety, severe fatigue, poor memory, difficulty concentrating, Tourette's
syndrome, dizziness, fainting spells, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD),
ruminating thoughts, insomnia, difficulty urinating, difficulty breathing,
chest pain, GI bloating, nausea, poor appetite, and constipation. All these
problems have lasted from few to many years. As a child, he had a history of
several pneumonias treated with antibiotics and had eczema and food allergies.
He has one mercury filling; his mother has many. Also, several years ago, in
addition to Lyme, he was diagnosed with Babesiosis and Bartonelliosis, for
which he was treated with a heavy drug regimen. Furthermore, he had four psychiatric
hospitalizations for suicidal depression, improved after massive psychiatric
medications and treatment for Babesia and Bartonella, and eventually discontinued
psychiatric drugs. In the past, he was seen and treated at a renowned university
center by a famous allopathic specialist in the neuro-psychiatric complications
of Lyme disease. He was also treated by several reputable alternative physicians
with specialty in immune dysfunction, Lyme disease, and orthomolecular psychiatry.
But, in spite of some definite benefits of these treatments, he still presented
with a long list of debilitating complaints, as indicated above, and a history
of being disabled for years.
Treatment course: The management was definitely complicated by the fact that,
at this stage, besides suffering from severe depression and cognitive impairment,
he also assumed an attitude of total indifference to the treatment and the
guidelines offered, for the reason of being through the proverbial mill while
not having gotten that far ahead. Yet, in spite of his poor compliance with
the diet and other lifestyle modifications, and his erratic visits, he, right
from the outset and several months into the treatment, has made gigantic progress.
At this time, while the treatment is still in progress, bioresonance testing
does not pick up presence of Lyme (which will be confirmed by a blood test,
too), and all of his ailments have been reduced down to only mild depression
and sub-optimal energy level, at times. All of the other problems have vanished.
Certainly, given better compliance and based on the experience of other similar
patients, he would have progressed even further by now. Case #2
History: A young woman in her early twenties, her problem list encompassed
three full pages with the number of symptoms and problems totaling over 100,
the proverbial head-to-toe medical presentation. Some of these have begun
in childhood, and the rest have joined in years later. The main culprits
thought to be heavy metals and mercury toxicity as well as Epstein-Barr Virus
(EBV) infection. She had been treated by conventional and alternative physicians
with negligible, if any, improvement.
Treatment course: Bioresonance Testing (BRT) revealed presence of mercury in
multiple organs, residues of antibiotics, and presence of candidiasis, streptococcal
infection, and EBV, parasitosis, and to everyone's surprise, Lyme infection
in the brain and the rest of the body. The Lyme was the least expected finding
since she came from a West Coast state, which is not known for its prevalence
of Lyme disease. Right from the start, following only a few treatments, she
made tremendous progress, which continues with barely any symptoms/problems
remaining.
Case #3
History: This patient was a woman in her thirties, who deserves her
medical ordeal to be presented in book format. This case also serves
a good illustration for those allopathic "revolutionaries" in
the treatment of Lyme disease who advocate a prolonged antibiotic
administration, up to nine-month regimens at a time, as a solution
to the problem. For their references, this woman was on continuous
antibiotic treatment for a period of 15 years: F-I-F-T-E-E-N Y-E-A-R-S.
The regimen consisted of four antibiotics, which were supposed to
contain Lyme and her other chronic infections: Bartonella, and constant
sinus and urinary tract infections. Also, she was receiving other
drugs (11 total) for years to contain her chronic Babesiosis, chronic
herpes infection, chronic candidiasis, peptic ulcer, and endless
other ailments. In addition, she was on intravenous mineral and fluid
infusions on a daily basis for severe fluid/mineral imbalance and
dehydration, while at the same time, the rest of her bodily tissues
were chronically edematous.
She has suffered from a myriad of symptoms and was practically bedridden
for many years with her quality of life being reduced to a miserable
level. She was seen over the years by several prominent Lyme/tick-borne
disease conventional specialists, where her clinical course, in spite
of the multiple drug regimen, was so poor, that she was even advised
to seek alternative practitioners. Unfortunately, the latter either
did not make a difference or changed things for the worse.
Treatment course: The initial Bioresonance Testing (BRT) course indicated
an even greater number of chronic bacterial and viral infections in
her body. Most importantly, it revealed the background state, one of
mercury toxicity (thanks to her mercury fillings), including thimerosal
(apparently received with a "preventative" flu shot years
ago which, incidentally, made her deadly ill), and massive generalized
candidiasis present in every tissue in her body. Ironically, during
further follow-up the test indicated persistent Bartonelliosis (cat
scratch fever) due to one off her cats being the carrier. Later on,
a blood test confirmed that the suspect cat was indeed the villain.
Needless to say, the combined iatrogenic damage in this case was of
such a monstrous magnitude that it would take years to mitigate it
completely. However, within only the first two months of the treatment,
she was able to discontinue all the drugs and intravenous infusions,
keeping in mind that any attempts of diminishing her drug intake in
the past would lead immediately to painful aggravation of all of her
chronic infections and other ailments as well. Today, nine months into
the treatment, she reports having more energy, stamina, positive outlook,
and better quality of life on the whole than she has known for many
years.
Conclusion
I cannot emphasize strongly enough that one is to never begin a treatment
of chronic infection with treating the infection itself, unless one
is absolutely determined to fail. Even if in the presence of acute
infection, including Lyme, after addressing it first – without
the use of antibiotics – one must immediately address an underlying
state. Otherwise, a recurrence and potential tendency to become chronic
will become a reality.
The author has shared this very successful system – and in a
far greater clinical and scientific detail – with the number
of renowned Lyme specialists, who themselves admitted to their prevailing
failures. The correspondence has also carried a proposal for a formal
clinical trial. To my dismay, and more importantly to the plight of
the many unnecessary sufferers of Lyme disease, the proposal has been
ignored.
Savely
Yurkovsky, MD, is internationally known as an author and teacher
with an extensive background in the thorough study of scientific principles
behind the numerous alternative and conventional approaches. Having
realized that the primary source of health and disease, according to
physics, stems from the corresponding cellular energy fields, he adopted
a revolutionary new medical model, one that interfaces the theories
of biology and physics established by his mentor, Professor Emeritus
William A. Tiller, PhD of Stanford University.
Having evolved a unique bio-energetic medical system that integrates
a great deal of pertinent but, until now, underused knowledge from
medical and non-medical sciences, Dr. Yurkovsky's system has
been able to transform the often vague nature of medical specialties
from "hit and miss" paradigms into a far more effective,
exact and predictable science. Dr. Yurkovsky has founded a teaching
organization, SYY Integrated Health Systems, Ltd., which is dedicated
to sharing his medical system under the concept of FCT – Field
Control Therapy® or Guided Digital Medicine™. Since 1999,
he has taught this curriculum to medical doctors and licensed health
care
professionals with special emphasis on energy-based diagnostic and
therapeutic modalities aimed particularly at toxicological, biological,
or nuclear agents. These, as a rule, elude conventional and most of
the alternative diagnostic methods, yet represent the primary source
of all chronic diseases. His book, Biological,
Chemical, and Nuclear Warfare – Protecting Yourself and Your
Loved Ones: The Power of Digital Medicine, is an excellent illustration
of both the scientific basis and effective practical means to combat
the ravages of acute
and chronic diseases in our toxic world. His system is the only alternative
medical modality that has drawn attention from one of the departments
of the Homeland Security Office. This year, along with several other
doctors from premier medical schools in the US, he has been nominated
for the prestigious Bravewell Leadership Award for "significant
contributions to the field of medicine" and "compelling
vision for the future of medicine."
Dr. Yurkovsky offers training to capable health care professionals.
