The Marshall Protocol is a research protocol that has been treating patients with Th1 inflammatory diseases. Dr. Garth Nicholson discovered bacteria (mycoplasma) in CFIDS patients and as you may know.... bacteria is in patients with lyme disease, sarcoidosis and autoimmune conditions. The protcol has also helped patients with fibromyalgia.

The good news about the MP is that any physician can prescribe the medications necessary (low-dose antibiotics along with Benicar). I actually had two physicians, an Endocrinologist and a Naturopathic physician recommend this protocol for me. I know that it is working because I'm having the herxing symptoms and also because my tachycardia is better and I no longer have an intolerance to gluten ! My good days are also much better now.

If you would like links about the protocol and their success stories... let me know. I can send them to you via PM.

I haven't heard of Dr. Jernigans protocol. I do not have lyme disease, but I am on a low-dose antibiotic protocol for CFIDS and there are many patients on the protocol who have had chronic lyme disease and autoimmune conditions. Many of the lyme disease patients say that the Marshall Protocol is treating their illness and they are having much greater success on the MP treatment, than the standard IV antibiotic treatment for lyme disease.
