ABOUT


Dr. Cécile Jadin

My first contact with chronic infectious disease was in my father, Professor J.B. Jadin's lab.

From a very early age, I wanted to be an artist. I became a doctor by distraction and surprisingly, it exceeded all expectations as I did not have any dream in this field except to become a surgeon. I did it and I left it.
Chronic multiples infections took over and extends in parallel with my art.

At the age of 6, I was feeding the lab animals - guinea pigs, rats and chimpanzees - with sugar, magnesium and glutamate to improve germs' growth. From being in charge of following their daily temperature fluctuations, I was promoted to splenectomise them in order to crash their Immune Systems. This was is the reason why I became a surgeon. I finished my degree by spending the last year of formation in South Africa (or in Switzerland – as it was the regulation in Belgium for the girls in 1981).
I chose South Africa and didn't return to my country.

After a few years, I decided to go back to my first medical love: infectious diseases. And, with the help of my father, an adequate lab was opened in South Africa around 1992.
It is still functioning with constant sensitivity and specificity.

I have been treating patients with chronic infectious diseases since 1992. By then I had had a practice in Denmark, in Belgium, in Germany, in Johannesburg, in Cape town, in Port Elizabeth and in Pietermaritzburg for about 20 years. I still work full time in Johannesburg.
This allowed me to see and treat an incredible amount of patients with great success by following and adapting my father’s methodology.
The number of my new patients positive for Lyme is around 200 for this last year only (2023). This is not including the old patients.

After having established a positive diagnosis towards the Obligated Intra Cellular Organism - OIO, I use a pulsed, combined antibiotics’ regime for 7 days/month which is precisely the natural rhythm of multiplication of all OIO.
I alternate the combination of antibiotics to avoid mutation (resistance), to minimise the destruction of healthy cells and to respect the natural intestinal flora reproduction.
I see each patient in person for the first visit, or online subsequently. Recently, I notice an increasing number of positivity towards the Western Blood Test for Lyme disease. Around 70% lately, although the symptoms of the so sadly called and Co ( meaning Rickettsia, Mycoplasma, Chlamydia, Toxoplasmosis, Brucella, Helicobacter pylori, Bartonella, Babesiosis and Bilharzia ) are similar and so is the treatment – except for Bilharziosis.

I am investigating infections and dysfunctions in parallel because I believe that active infections not only create symptoms but also have an impact on the human's organs.This approach consolidates the serology's credibility.
I also stress that a specific germ never exists alone.

I prefer reading patients rather than medical publications about them. I believe this method is more accurate, more secure and definitely wider.
In other words, my patients are my teachers.
The world globalisation’s rubs out the tropical diseases, more efficiently than the big white birds coming from Africa in spring and plunging the Athenians in a state of Stupor, according to Homer. Stupor is the Greek word for Typhus.
Realising that germs migrate in human’s bodies, they do not give their name to a disease but the name of their actual position in the body.
The today’s pathology is often different than the one of tomorrow.

Acknowledgements

Thanks to my father, Prof. JB Jadin, and his Pasteurian colleagues, I have at my disposal an impressive collection of scientific literature.
Thanks to the faith of my numerous patients, I have my illustrated pathology.
Thanks to the stimulation from and support of my South African colleagues, I started my intensive research.

Thanks to the patience of my husband, Dr. Patrick Gerin, the tolerance of my three children, Jean-Baptiste, Aurelie and Antoine, and the vigilance of my staff,
in particular Janet Shepherd, Amanda Malcomes, Diane Starr and Leonie Knezovich.

Thanks to the unlimited generosity of Meg Fox who tried to unravel the mysteries of the computer for me.

Because of all of the above, I have been able to participate in and give the following conferences

Thanks To:

PROFESSOR PAUL GIROUD

Thanks to his insistent motivations, I became a doctor rather than an artist.

PROFESSOR JB JADIN

Thanks to him and his colleagues, I am able to collect ticks, rats and bats anywhere in the world.

Her father was Professor JB Jadin, who undertook groundbreaking research on tropical diseases, among them Rickettsial infection, with Professor Paul Giroud in Central Africa, South Africa, the Near East, and in Europe. Together they developed the work started in the Pasteur Institute of Tunis, with Professor Charles Nicolle, who was a disciple of Louis Pasteur. Thus, Cécile was familiar with those germs from an early age and her work represents the results of teamwork through the last 100 years.

At the end of 1987, one of her friends became unable to walk and was diagnosed as having CFS. For 4 years, Dr. Jadin suggested the diagnosis of Rickettsial Infection, and therefore the Weil-Felix test, the only one then available in South Africa for diagnosis of Rickettsia, was performed several times but the results were negative. The friend developed an acute appendicitis that needed surgery. Afterwards, her serum was sent to Prof. JB Jadin in Belgium to test for Rickettsiae, and the result was positive. Dr. Jadin treated her with Tetracyclines and 3 weeks later she was riding her horse again. It was at this point that Dr. Jadin started to focus on the Rickettsial approach.

But success did not come without controversies. Cécile Jadin had 28 medical court cases , all left without conclusion. No one emanated from patients but all were formulated by colleagues.
