After 20 years of debilitating Lyme Symptoms, Nicole Lavin Makes a Miraculous Recovery

After 20 years of miscellaneous, debilitating symptoms and countless ignorant doctors, Nicole Lavin decided to take an active role in her healing journey and saved her life.
How It All Started…

My name is Nicola Lavin and my story starts 22 years ago in the Summer of 2000. I was almost finished my degree as a medical scientist and before settling into a long term career. I wanted one more summer of fun so I left Ireland to join the hundreds of other J1 students in Montauk New York. Let me just say… Montauk is heaven! Sandy beaches and long summer days and hundreds of students working together and living the dream.

download (2)I got a job at the infamous Guerney’s Inn. I could walk to work every morning through the grass and watch chipmunks play right beside me. I didn’t even think about ticks just waiting to find their prey. In this case, it was the white freckly legs of an Irish girl walking happily through the long grass. I also didn’t even realize that I had been bitten. I had an area in my armpit that became red and swollen but I never developed the diagnostic bulls-eye rash.

I flew home really sick. Like having the worst flu and hangover of your life all at once. I immediately went to my doctor at home who told me to give it a few weeks and come back if I still wasn’t better. I didn’t get better and the daily nausea became so bad that it prompted my doctor so do a pregnancy test and you guessed it….I was pregnant! All of my symptoms were put down to that and never having been pregnant before I didn’t know that it really wasn’t supposed to be that bad. By the end of the pregnancy, I was rushed to hospital in complete heart failure. My heart stopped and I died and had to be revived. 

I was never the same after that. Even though the doctors were happy that they had reversed my heart failure through medication, they still couldn’t account for the extreme fatigue and large myriad of symptoms that I was now experiencing.

My Many Symptoms

download (3)Over the years, I developed many autoimmune conditions, my heart rate was consistently low (about 35bpm), POTS, severe pins and needles, joint pain, muscle fatigue, brain fog and memory loss. I also developed painful oesophageal spasms, difficulty swallowing and then began having strange neurological symptoms like paralysis episodes where I could hear my son and husband crying with worry but I couldn’t move a muscle to let them know I was ok. When I eventually would come around, my speech would be slurred like someone who had just suffered a stroke.

The Countless Doctors

And still the doctors passed me off from one to the other. Instead of them looking at my symptoms as a whole, I was referred to a rheumatologist for my joint pain, a dermatologist for my burning skin, a gastroenterologist for my oesophageal spasms, a cardiologist for POTS, an immunologist who told me that he didn’t do fatigue and several neurologists for my nerve pain and memory issues.

And still the doctors passed me off from one to the other. Instead of them looking at my symptoms as a whole, I was referred to a rheumatologist for my joint pain, a dermatologist for my burning skin, a gastroenterologist for my oesophageal spasms, a cardiologist for POTS, an immunologist who told me that he didn’t do fatigue and several neurologists for my nerve pain and memory issues. Despite me telling them initially about the bite I thought I had gotten, I was never tested for Lyme disease. And I was 17 years sick like this, going from doctor to doctor for answers and still trying desperately to live a normal life. My blood tests at this stage always showed inflammation in my body and that I was now producing autoantibodies.

Finally Finding Answers

download (6)Taking care of me became my husband’s full-time career: having to wash, spoon feed me and even brush my teeth. I decided that was enough and began researching myself. The medical scientist in me had also thought of Lyme so I paid myself to have my bloods testing in a private lab in Germany. My Lyme PCR came back positive for Borellia burgdorferi DNA and an American strain of the bacteria. Finally I had answers but as anyone with a Lyme diagnosis knows that is just when the uphill battle begins as so many doctors still refused to accept that chronic Lyme disease actually exists.

I did find a good neurologist who took me under his wing, and after a year and a half off a strong cocktail of antibiotics the scientist in me felt that the Lyme had to be well and truly dead. But I still felt awful! The more I thought about it the more I realized that it was my immune system causing the issues. Think of it this way. Your house is on fire but you manage to put the fire out after a lot of damage is done. You wouldn’t go back living in this house until that damage was repaired. So I knew that was what I had to do, repair my damaged immune system. I needed to clean out all of the junk in my damaged cells and get them communicating again. I needed to fix my nerve cells so that my brain could make my organs function properly again. So I decided to go back to Germany where they seemed to know a lot more about treating Lyme to have stem cell therapy.

After 18 long years, I was finally given a second chance at life.

download (5)On October 4th 2018 my stem cells were removed from my fat cells on my hips in a procedure that is very similar to liposuction. I was dreading this part, but it didn’t hurt in the slightest. A short time later my husband was given the privilege of injecting my stem cells through my IV. To say that we were emotional is an understatement. After 18 long years, I was finally given a second chance at life.

The Healing Process

I’m not going to lie, the healing process was tough. There were days when I never thought I would come out the other side. Neurological healing takes up to two years, but I was extremely lucky in that this treatment worked for me. My quality of life began to improve dramatically to the point where I could work and travel (my biggest passion in life). Being bed-bound was like solitary confinement–so as soon as I was well enough, I began traveling and documenting my journeys.

I enjoyed it so much that I started a travel blog and now get to travel the world with my husband. Any symptoms I have now are mild and the most important thing is that I now have a good quality of life. I am back doing what I love most…..exploring the world! Traveling the world with chronic illness isn’t easy but it is possible and my advice to anyone dealing with Lyme disease at the moment is that even though it might not feel like you will ever get your life back never give up! It took me over 18 years and it’s an experience that has changed my life forever but it has made me so appreciative of the little everyday moments in life.

New Study Supports Conclusion of Retracted 2020 Study Showing Unvaxxed Kids Healthier Than Vaxxed & the Vaxxed Had a 36% Higher Risk of Asthma

https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/study-unvaccinated-healthier-vaccinated-kids/?

New Study Supports Conclusion of Retracted 2020 Study Showing Unvaxxed Kids Healthier Than Vaxxed

A new study by James Lyons-Weiler, Ph.D. and Dr. Russell Blaylock supports the conclusions of a study by Dr. Paul Thomas, published in November 2020 and later retracted after an anonymous reader expressed concerns.

study unvaxxed vaxxed health kids feature

In November 2020, a study that carefully examined 10 years’ worth of data from a pediatric practice in Oregon run by Dr. Paul Thomas was published. Five days following the publication of the study, Thomas’ license was suspended.

A month after that, the journal decided to inform the authors that an anonymous reader had expressed some concerns about the study.

This single reader’s comments that involved bad guesswork led ultimately to the journal’s decision to retract the paper, leaving the authors stunned.

The authors knew that the reader’s concerns had already been addressed during peer review, and expected the journal to rule in favor of not retracting the paper. The journal editorial board knew this, too.

The concern centered primarily on the question of whether the large differences in the number of medical visits required for attention to specific health conditions like anemia, gastroenteritis, asthma, ear infections and many others, were due to parents who did not vaccinate not showing up to their well-baby and well-child visits.

Because Thomas’ license was suspended, he had to focus on his case and try to keep his life from falling apart; the medical board kept postponing the hearing, and no hearing had occurred.

In fact, no hearing has been held to date.

James Lyons-Weiler, Ph.D. suggested to Thomas that perhaps the medical board had overreached by applying a penalty without due process, a fact that Thomas then shared with his lawyer.

When his lawyer wrote the medical board pointing out that Thomas had suffered a penalty without due process, they offered to reinstate his license, pending the outcome of a hearing, on the condition that he do no more research.

This clearly shows the agenda of the medical board was not to ensure that the children in the practice were receiving good pediatric medical care.

It is now clear that the singular priority of the medical board was to shut down Thomas’ practice of abiding by informed consent — as required by Oregon state law for all medical procedures — and to prevent him from sharing any additional findings from the 10 years of data that had been collected from his practice.

New study supports earlier conclusions by Thomas

Today, the study is revived by a second study, this time conducted by Lyons-Weiler and his medical collaborator, Dr. Russell Blaylock.

In this second study, the following questions were addressed:

  1. Which group of patients adhered to the regular well-child visit better, the vaccinated patients or those who had refused vaccines?
  2. In groups of patients matched for health check visitation usage, which adverse health outcomes following vaccination differed between vaccinated patients and those who refused vaccines?
  3. After adjusting for healthcare visitations and age, do vaccines still significantly affect overall adverse health conditions in a manner independent of their interaction with healthcare visitations and age?
  4. Did older patients in the practice who stopped vaccinating experience a decrease in the adverse health outcomes that have been attributed to vaccines?

The study results, which are found in the paper entitled “Revisiting Excess Diagnoses of Illnesses and Conditions in Children Whose Parents Provide Informed Permission to Vaccinate Them” show that the anonymous reader’s concerns were unfounded; the unvaccinated families made their well-child visits with greater frequency than the vaccinated families.

This study, funded by the public, answers the first questions.

The answer to the second question is “results vary,” but this may be due to smaller sample sizes reducing power (see the study for details).

The study split the patients into high, medium and low health care visitation usage blocks, and many of the adverse health effects are seen increased in the vaccinated group of patients within these blocks (blocks are groups of patients matched on health care visitation usage).

For the third question, the scientists found that after defining a model that included healthcare visit utilization and age, vaccines were still a significant factor that increased adverse health outcomes, many of which had previously been associated with vaccines.

Moreover, the authors also determined that vaccines were still significant following consideration of the interaction term between vaccination status and the other model factors.

Importantly, had the study authors not considered the interaction term, the results would have seemed to imply that vaccination was negatively predictive of adverse health outcomes.

In the model in which vaccines, health care visits per age and the interaction term was considered, the number of vaccines was a positive significant predictor of overall adverse health.

Interaction terms are usually ignored by studies that “adjust for” variables. Adding covariates into the model without considering the interaction term with the main effect — vaccines — can mask a significant effect on the rates of post-vaccination health issues, providing a misleading result.

It’s worth noting that breastfeeding — another correlate of lifestyle measures — had no significant singular or interaction effects.

Blaylock posed the final question to Lyons-Weiler, who conducted the data analysis.

When older children were studied, and those who had the most vaccines were compared to those to those of the same age who had fewer vaccines, a clear pattern emerged for most of the adverse health outcomes: the risk of having a higher adverse health outcome was higher in the most-vaccinated older children compared to the least-vaccinated older children to a degree that was larger than that expected given any variation between the two groups in healthcare visit utilization.

This reflects the positive health effects of vaccine cessation.

The age-matched effects of vaccine cessation. High Relative Risk values denote increased risk of a given health outcome in patients receiving more vaccines in the older age group (>1,500 days of age). The black bar shows the Relative Risk of HCV between these groups as a baseline.

The relative risk of adverse health outcomes in older children who continued to vaccinate compared to those who ceased vaccination in Thomas’ practice.

Combined, all of these results mean that the method developed by Lyons-Weiler to consider the number of office visits needed for adverse health outcomes represents a robust, reliable and rigorous advance in methodology for the study of adverse health outcomes following medical exposures, including vaccines.

The method, “Relative Incidence of Office Visits,” had already been shown to be more powerful.

Lyons-Weiler reports that this is necessarily so because the measure contains more information than mere rates of diagnosis.

The RIOV measure has a higher dynamic range than odds ratios and relative risks based on diagnosis only. Studies that focus on the rates of diagnosis are using a subset of RIOV but are only limiting their count of office visits to that for the initial diagnosis.

The authors estimated that vaccination increases the need for visits to the doctor for vaccine-related health outcomes at a rate of 2.56 to 4.98 new chronic-illness-related visits per unit increase in vaccination per year.

“That translates into far more chronic illness in vaccinating children than in those not vaccinating, a disease burden that is not considered in risk: benefit considerations when it comes to vaccine policies and laws,” said Lyons-Weiler.

The paper, which was subjected to blinded peer review, describes all of the details of the results, is open access, and is published in the peer-reviewed journal International Journal of Vaccine Theory, Research, and Practice.

36% Higher Risk of Asthma in Some Kids Who Had Vaccine-Related Aluminum Exposure, CDC Study Shows

A federally funded study released Tuesday reported a “positive association” between “vaccine-related aluminum exposure” and “persistent asthma” in children 24-59 months old, but the study’s authors were careful to not suggest a causal relationship.

asthma aluminum vaccine cdc study feature
 
Overall, kids in the study who received 3 mg or more of vaccine-related aluminum had at least a 36% higher risk of developing persistent asthma than kids who got less than 3 the study’s lead author, Dr. Matthew F. Daley, told The Associated Press.  (See link for article)
 
_________________
 
**Comment**
 
It should be noted that the CDC has never done a study comparing the vaccinated with unvaccinated nor with children who weren’t exposed to aluminum at all in their vaccines.  To date, the CDC has never studied the cumulative effects of all the vaccines together.  Studies only look at one vaccine at a time typically compared to another vaccine (not a true placebo). 

Christopher Exley, Ph.D., an expert on aluminum toxicity, agreed the study will likely not result in altering the use of aluminum adjuvants in vaccines.

Exley added:

“The idea is to concede the smallest possible ground on aluminum toxicity and at the same time reinforcing what they want readers to think by citing multiple papers by stooges and those working directly for the aluminum industry — a classic example being where the authors look to reinforce that ingested aluminum is not a health issue in infants.”

Please read the entire article for all the details.

Also, please read James Lyons-Weiler’s take on it as well. Cox proportional hazard models were used to evaluate the
association between aluminum exposure and asthma inci-
dence, stratified by eczema presence/absence.

Weiler states:

Raise your hand if you’re a parent and you have noticed that your child with eczema seems at risk of autoimmune conditions, including autoimmune diseases of the airways like persistent asthma when exposed to vaccines.

The risk was associated with vaccine-associated aluminum dose – and the increased risk was HUGE. “aHz of 1.26 per 1 mg increase in aluminum” means a 26% increase in the risk of asthma per 1,000 mcg aluminum-containing vaccine received. Children on the CDC’s schedule receive 5,640 mcg of aluminum by age 13, so children with eczema have a 78% increase in their risk of developing asthma by age 13 compared to kids who receive no aluminum-containing vaccines.

Kids without eczema had a 19% increase in asthma risk per 1 mg increase in vaccine-sourced aluminum; by age 13, they have a 57% increased risk of asthma compared to kids who receive no aluminum-containing vaccines.

He then proceeds to wipe the floor with Dr. Paul Offit, who is calling for “extraordinary evidence” which Weiler states means randomized controlled trials (RCTs) which will never happen (just like in Lymeland).

3 Medical Boards Sued for Threatening Doctors

3 Medical Boards Sued for Threatening Physicians

Cindy Drukier Jul 30, 2022

Doctors who are critical of official positions on COVID policy are facing retaliation from their certification boards. The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons Education Foundation (AAPS) is suing three medical specialty boards for threatening doctors who speak publicly on these issues:

  •  The American Board of Internal Medicine
  •  The American Board of Obstetrics & Gynecology
  •  The American Board of Family Medicine

AAPS has been around since 1943 and is an alternative to the American Medical Association. Its principles are to serve patients not the state, preserve medical freedom, and stand up for physicians.

We speak to AAPS lawyer Andy Schlafly.

_________________

**Comment**

The AMA and these other specialty boards need to go.  Period.  They are forcing doctors to follow a corrupt government’s dictates.  This corrupt government has so many conflicts of interest it walks side ways.

Lyme literate doctors, including my own, continue to fight state medical boards due to the politicization of the disease.  The COVID debacle has shown the world what has been going on in Lymeland for decades.

If you are a doctor with a conscience at all, you need to stop supporting the AMA which instructs doctors to deceive.  The AAPS is a much better alternative as they actually support doctors, treatments that work, educates the public, gives successful treatment protocols, and speaks out against governmental overreach and tyranny in the medical field.

Please learn how the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB), a private tax-exempt 501(c) (6) trade association, is staffed with members who presently or previously held positions with other medical governing bodies and is in conjunction with the U.S. government which spawned the International Association of Medical Regulatory Authorities (IAMRA).  FSMB’s president and CEO is also secretary of the IAMRA demonstrating the incestuous relationship and conflicts of interest.

In addition to contracting with the U.S. government and IAMRA, the FSMB (similarly to the CDC) runs its own foundation that functions as a separate 501(c)(3) organization but is supported by a “generous seed endowment” from the FSMB.

Conveniently, the FSMB foundation’s website does not disclose its donors.

Where does the FSMB derive its authority to regulate United States medical boards and, through its apparent international partner, the IAMRA, direct medical councils around the world to discipline doctors?”

Cancers Increasing Dramatically & Did the COVID Shot Worsen A Famous Doctor’s Cancer?

**UPDATE Oct. 2022**

An analysis of U.S. Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) data suggests the CDC has been filtering and re-designating cancer deaths as COVID deaths since April, 2021 to eliminate the cancer signal. The signal is being hidden by swapping the underlying cause of death with the main cause of death.  And before it was manipulated, data from the Defense Medical Epidemiology Database (DMED) showed cancer rates in military personal and in their families TRIPLED after the shot rollout. Cancer patients have also gotten younger with the largest increase among 30-50 year olds, with dramatically larger, and multiple tumors, occurring in multiple organs as well as recurrence and metastasis increasing.

Cancers in Adults Under 50 Have Increased Dramatically Around The Globe

By Fiona MacDonald, 08 September 2022

(bymuratdeniz/Getty Images)

Cancer has long been part of the human story. But a new review has shown that, recently, something has shifted.

Since 1990, the number of adults under the age of 50 developing cancer has increased dramatically around the world.

What’s concerning is that the increase in early-onset cancers doesn’t seem to be slowing down – and improvements in screening alone don’t seem to be able to fully explain the trend.

“We found that this risk is increasing with each generation,” says one of the researchers, Shuji Ogino, a pathologist and epidemiologist at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston.

(See link for article)

__________________

SUMMARY:

  • The researchers looked at 14 cancer types:  breast, colorectal (CRC), endometrial, esophageal, extrahepatic bile duct, gallbladder, head and neck, kidney, liver, bone marrow, pancreas, prostate, stomach, and thyroid cancer – all of which are on the rise according to global cancer data.
  • Then they reviewed any available studies that could shed light on possible risk factors for these cancers by looking for clues in the literature describing any unique clinical and biological characteristics of tumors of early-onset cancers.
  • They found that early-onset cancer is an emerging global epidemic.
  • They found the following issues contributed to the uptick:
    • increased screening, however even countries that don’t have screening programs have increased cancer rates.
    • Diet
    • lifestyle
    • weight (obesity)
    • environmental exposures
    • microbiome
    • sedentary lifestyle
    • alcohol consumption
    • type 2 diabetes
  • Among the types of cancers studied 14 are related to the digestive system.
  • Regarding children, they are getting a lot less sleep than in the past.

The research has been published in Nature Reviews Clinical Oncology.

While the article doesn’t mention it specifically, radiation from wireless devices such as cell phones which have become prominent today may be adding to this cancer surge as well.  It is commonly known that EMFs wreak havoc in the body and many Lyme/MSIDS are particularly vulnerable.

Another little discussed topic is glyphosate, the major ingredient in Bayer-Monsanto’s Roundup which is the most widely used pesticide in the U.S. WHO and CA scientists both agree it is linked to cancer, yet the EPA concluded it was “safe” and “not likely” to cause cancer. The EPA has been forced to review this due to a federal judge finding the agency ignored human health studies, expert advice, and the agency’s guidelines for determining cancer risk. Source

And a 2021 study links lung cancer with mask usage.

Similarly to research regarding tick-borne illnesses, Alzheimer’s and cancer research have been controlled by a Cabal and researchers are currently accused of doctoring images, plagiarism, and faking data.

The article also doesn’t mention the link between the COVID mRNA shots and cancer:

  • the lipid nanoparticle mRNA COVID injection goes systemically into the entire body and doesn’t remain in the arm as thought.
  • It continues to produce the spike protein at least 60 days out if not longer and is being found 15 months later.
  • It also interferes with cancer blocking genes and they are seeing an uptick in cancers as well as other viruses now after the shots
  • there’s been a 40% increase in deaths those ages 18-64 years of age and an 84% increase in the 25-44 age group according to insurance companies.

The following story is a perfect example of the very real potential link:

Did a Famous Doctor’s COVID Shot Make His Cancer Worse?

A lifelong promoter of vaccines suspects he might be the rare, unfortunate exception.
By Roxanne Khamsi
 
Sept. 24, 2022
 
Excerpts:
 
On September 22 of last year, Michel Goldman, a Belgian immunologist and one of Europe’s best-known champions of medical research, walked into a clinic near his house, rolled up his sleeve, and had a booster shot delivered to his arm.
 
Just a few weeks earlier, Michel, 67, had been to see his younger brother, Serge, the head of nuclear medicine at the hospital of the Université Libre de Bruxelles, where both men are professors. Michel was having night sweats, and he could feel swollen lymph nodes in his neck, so his brother brought him in for a full-body CT scan. When the images came through to Serge’s computer they revealed a smattering of inky spots, bunched near Michel’s left armpit and running up along his neck. It was cancer of the immune system—lymphoma.
 

Given his own area of expertise, Michel understood this meant he’d soon be immunocompromised by chemotherapy. With another winter on the way—and perhaps another wave of SARS-CoV-2 infections—that meant he had just a narrow window of opportunity in which his body would respond in full to COVID vaccination. Having received two doses of Pfizer the prior spring, Michel quickly went to get his third. If he was about to spend months absorbing poison as he tried to beat a deadly cancer, at least he’d have the most protection possible from the pandemic.

Within a few days, though, Michel was somehow feeling even worse. His night sweats got much more intense, and he found himself—quite out of character—taking afternoon naps. Most worryingly, his lymph nodes were even more swollen than before. He conferred with Serge again, and they set up another body scan for September 30, six days before Michel was scheduled to start his cancer treatment. Once again he sat in the radiology waiting room while his brother waited for the pictures to appear on his computer.

Serge’s bushy eyebrows furrowed when he spoke with Michel after having seen the scans. (“I will always remember his face, it was just incredible,” Michel told me.) The pictures showed a brand-new barrage of cancer lesions—so many spots that it looked like someone had set off fireworks inside Michel’s body. More than that, the lesions were now prominent on both sides of the body, with new clusters blooming in Michel’s right armpit in particular, and along the right side of his neck.  (See link for article)

___________________

SUMMARY:

  • It is unusual to see such a swift progression in just 3 weeks
  • He hand his brother had a gnawing feeling the booster made him sicker
  • The article erroneously states this is a very rare life-threatening side effect.  Doctors have been reporting this finding all over the world but are ignored.
  • An avid proponent of the shots, going to far as to reassure others about their safety, he’s definitely having a red pill experience.
  • Unfortunately he bought and propagated the lie that any chance of serious complications from the shots pale in comparison to the chance of complications from COVID.
  • Michael threw him into researching the mechanisms of action of the COVID shots and did find clues suggesting the the mRNA shots might be risky for a subset of the population as they are effective at generating a message and spurring its passage through helper T cells, which could give such a jolt to helper T cells that they go berserk.  Overstimulation on those prone to forming tumors in those already with cancer, overstimulation could make it worse.
  • He learned that body scans of some of those who get vaccines, including cancer patients, have shown heightened activity in the lymph nodes near the armpit on the side where the shot was received.
  • A mouse study also corroborated his experience.
  • Michael wrote a paper, about his experience titled “Rapid Progression of Angioimmunoblastic T Cell Lymphoma Following BNT162b2 mRNA Vaccine Booster Shot”
  • Worried his study would fuel vaccine skepticism he labored over every word, yet his paper follows earlier reports also suggesting a possible link between the COVID shot and lymphoma
  • Another doctor also worried that writing about five patients who had a relapse of kidney disease and eight patients who were newly diagnosed after getting the shot would also fuel vaccine skepticism.
  • Michael’s immunologist stated that the vaccine appeared to be related to the cancer’s behavior and then reneged by stating it’s just a case report – one patient.
