What is wrong with me

I also get IBS once a month, chest pain and headaches. I also have a lump on my neck that feels like a bone that is either out of place or a bone spur. How do you dx systemic mycoplasma? Is it treatable?

[Garth L Nicolson, PhD]

IBS, headaches, chest pain, among other signs and symptoms occur in individuals with chronic infections.  Also, the lump that you find on your neck could be one of the several draining lymph nodes in this region. Again, this goes along with the possibility of infection.

Mycoplasma is a common infection in chronic illness patients, but unfortunately most physicians do not know the best way to dx this type of infection and especially how to treat it if found.  More information can be found on our website, immed.org under Clinical Testing and under Treatment Considerations (especially publication No. 2).
