Lyme disease, or Borreliosis, is a tick-borne bacterial disease affecting both humans and animals. First discovered in the U.S. in humans in 1975 and reported in dogs in 1984, it has spread rapidly across the country, affecting more victims every year. It is caused by a corkscrew-shaped bacteria called Borrelia Burgdorferi. Why is Lyme Disease spreading so rapidly? Studies have shown that waterfowl and other migratory birds have helped disperse the infected tick. Dogs and wildlife that run in infected fields can bring infected ticks back to suburban locations and backyards. Dogs traveling with their owner can spread infected ticks to distant locations. Secluded wooded areas where people live or spend leisure time are the natural environments for ticks and the Lyme disease bacteria.

Educational Resource Guide #01 Lyme Disease and Tick Management by Barb Ogg, Ph.D., Extension Educator L yme disease is caused by a bacteria that is carried and transmitted through bites from several species of ticks. This disease was first recognized in 1976 and has now occurred in 47 states, including Nebraska. By 1993, Nebraska health officials reported 35 human cases: 11 of these cases were confirmed as having been contracted in Lancaster County. Early signs of the disease include: a red rash which expands in concentric circles outward from the tick bite producing a "bulls-eye" effect. Later, flu-like symptoms occur which include headache, fever, chills, lethargy, and joint and muscle pain. In advanced untreated cases, there may be arthritis-like symptoms in the knees and shoulders and cardiac abnormalities. In most cases, antibiotics have shown to be an effective treatment of this disease, especially in early stages of the disease. There is no vaccine presently available for humans. Lyme disease can also infect dogs, horses and cattle. In dogs, Lyme disease can cause fever, joint swelling, pain, arthritis, and lameness. Infected dogs may also exhibit a loss of appetite, depression and lethargy. This disease is rarely fatal in dogs, but it can be debilitating and antibiotic treatments can be long and expensive. A vaccine against Lyme disease for dogs is available from a veterinarian and is an initial series of two shots, followed by a yearly booster shot.

Clinical Alert: Chronic Lyme Disease Symptoms Not Helped by Intensive Antibiotic Treatment National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID) 12 June 2001 Results of the first randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trials testing antibiotics in patients with a stubborn form of Lyme disease those whose symptoms persist after standard courses of antibiotics validate that these patients suffer significant pain and other disabling symptoms. The two trials found, however, that a 90-day course of intravenous and oral antibiotics was no better than placebo at improving these chronic symptoms. Because of their potential importance to Lyme disease treatment, The New England Journal of Medicine is publishing these findings today online at http://www.nejm.org . The report will appear in the July 12th print edition of the journal. The studies were funded by a National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) contract to Mark S. Klempner, M.D., of Boston University School of Medicine. "Our results suggest that we need to define the cause or causes of the debilitating, persisting symptoms experienced by some patients with Lyme disease. Understanding the origin of these symptoms should lead to more effective therapeutic approaches to ameliorate these symptoms," says Dr. Klempner. "Based on experience with other chronic infectious diseases caused by persisting bacteria syphilis, tuberculosis, and ulcers, for example we think it is unlikely that a longer course of treatment or different antibiotic combination would result in greater improvement than what we found in these studies."

©Marilyn J. Kerr RN 1997-2002 TEXT I wish to personally welcome you to this web site. It has been created, with love, for you. When we first get diagnosed (or wonder if we should be diagnosed), I know too well how difficult it is to find information about Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (aka CFIDS, M.E.), Lyme, and/or Fibromyalgia Syndrome. There are a myriad of sites that bring you the basics, and I try to present you those basics as well as information slightly beyond. At the moment, there is no cause nor cure. There are no magic bullets. This disease is so complex, no one drug will work. This is not a disease of just your muscles, your immune system, your sleep dysfunction, your hormones, your nutritional deficiencies, your NMH, or your gut; it is a cluster of symptoms that involve every system of your body. Treating it, therefore, involves testing and treating those deficiencies. The controversies surrounding that and the differences in our health contribute to our stress. My new job is to help us sort that all out. Hugs, Marilyn K

Lyme Disease - General Information and FAQ Lyme disease is an illness caused by a spirochete bacteria, Borrelia burgdorferi, which is transmitted to animals and man through the bite of infected ticks. The disease is reported worldwide and throughout the United States. The states of New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island and New Jersey account for the majority of cases in the United States. However, cases are reported from all geographic regions of the country. Different ticks are carriers in the different regions. Ixodes dammini (the deer tick) in the Northeast and midwest, Ixodes scapularis (the black-legged tick) in the South, Ixodes pacificus (the western black-legged tick) in the West and Amblyomma americanum (the lone star tick) found in several regions are all considered vectors. The is growing concern that Dermacentor variabilis (the American dog tick) may also be capable of transmitting the disease. Transmission by biting insects (flies, fleas, mosquitos) is speculated but appears to be quite rare. Not all ticks are infected. Infection rates in tick populations vary by tick species and geographic region from as few as two percent to 90 percent or more.

Emerging infectious diseases are commonly defined as those that have newly appeared in a population or have existed but are rapidly increasing in incidence or geographic range. Recent examples include HIV/AIDS, Lyme disease and hepatitis C. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) conducts and supports research and scientific training to meet the challenges of emerging diseases. This document provides a brief overview of NIAID¹s emerging disease research programs. Tuberculosis Nearly 2 billion people, one-third of the world¹s population, are infected with the tuberculosis (TB) bacterium. This includes between 10 and 15 million people in the United States. TB is the world¹s leading cause of death from a single infectious organism, killing more adults each year than AIDS and malaria combined. The TB crisis is intensified by the emergence of disease caused by multidrug-resistant organisms. Infections caused by these organisms may result in an incurable form of the disease. The World Health Organization estimates that more than 50 million people worldwide may be infected with drug-resistant strains of TB. NIAID¹s TB research program encompasses studies of the epidemiology and natural history of TB, and basic and applied research to develop new ways to diagnose, treat and prevent TB. An NIAID-funded center at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, coordinates national and international basic and clinical research programs on TB. The center¹s primary goals are to develop new ways to measure the effectiveness of new drugs and to identify the immune responses that protect an individual from TB, information needed to evaluate candidate TB vaccines. Another NIAID-funded facility acquires and screens natural and synthetic compounds in a search for new TB antibiotics. NIAID also supports a number of facilities for the preclinical evaluation of TB drugs in mouse models of the disease and to provide tuberculosis reagents to qualified investigators.

Results of a preliminary tests, published in this week's New England Journal of Medicine, shows competing vaccines LYMErix, produced by SmithKline Beecham, and ImuLyme, made by Pasteur Merieux Connaught, appear equally effective in protecting against the disease. Ticks, often no larger than pinheads, spread the Lyme disease germ that strikes 10,000 Americans a year, mostly in the Northeast. Left untreated, it can lead to arthritis and even life-threatening complications. The two vaccines await government approval, and neither is on the market yet. In May, a Food and Drug Administration advisory council recommended LYMErix. ImuLyme is up for review.
