Dear Stephen,
I’m making use of your book Healing Lyme and found it very informative. I want to know how the spirochetes reproduce and grow in number once they get in a body? I want to know if it’s possible to have a few thousand of them for many years and not know it…until suddenly the population grows? Any idea how many a person can pick up from a tic bite? What are your thoughts on this? Is there good research on this subject? Thanks.

Stephen’s response:
I deal with spirochete reproduction in detail in Healing Lyme. Spirochete levels tend to be low in chronic lyme infection which is why they often do not show up in tests. It is possible to not know about them, and the population can grow suddenly, usually if immune function lowers due to a period of stress.

My book is the best research on the subject that I am aware of unless you wish to look at the journal papers listed in the book. You might do a google search for Medline on the Internet and then query that site for lyme for more information.
