How does morgellons start

We certainly need to open the dialogue in this are of medicine rather than close it. For every study that suggests there is no link between infections and Morgellon's there is a study that suggests there could be.

For every study that suggests the fibers that patients find are man made external fibers, there are studies that suggest these are keratin and collagen fibers from the skin itself. The true story of Morgellons will unfold as years go by. For now, patients affected by Morgellons disease need support. Morgellons disease, illuminating an undefined illness: a case series.

These doctor will write odd comments in notes as well and a friend of mine who works in insurance fraud told me that he felt this change of personality could be due to doctors creating a back file on patients and due to his profession and knowledge he was almost certain this was my situation.

His advise to me was that he felt I would be lucky to find anyone to help me and to keep looking. So I did keep looking, I kept looking for over six years. Had no choice I continued to get worse, I did all the natural remedies you see online, that is the ones that made sense. I had years of herbal experience behind me so I was very lucky to be knowlegeable because it helped clean up the mess initial doctors created with medications that actually fueled my illness.

Here's the deal everyone, when you self treat without any identity of what the pathogen s you have, you risk making something worse by trying to fix it. So how do you get to that doctor to help with cards stacked against you? You don't take their crap when it's clear that is what they are offering. Keep your wits about you best that you can, know what it is that you feel you can identify with.

If you can match photos of things with your issues to valid photos on ligitamate research photos nih. If you see a dermatologist, look for one that has complicated skin issues list as part of their background. Look for whether they have a background in lab work microbiology, biology, ecology , find out if they have access to pathology labs. If a dermatologist immediately refers you to an infectious disease specialist and the infectious disease specialist only eyeballs you one time or hey he may issue one parasite ova test, tell you its negative and then kick you out the back door.

You may also get the typical naturalpath that wants you to spend thousands on supplements and some of you may actually heal, but if you find a month later relapsing is all you get, you'll know you need a stronger line of treatment.

You should have improvements two to thee weeks in and in my experience, improvements have usually been within 24 to 48 hours. Okay now most of you keep relapsing so here is what I feel is a reason why and mind you this is just my personal opinion from digging into tons of info and years of battling this disease.

I come from a long chain of farmers, even my first love was a fourth generational farmer and he also worked for a lab. His knowledge was extremely helpful. Farming has always been built on cross breading of crops. However, back in , I remember the government stepped in to cap grain prices on the farmers. This crushed many generational farmers into bankruptcy. Only the strong survived this and the others ended up giving up their land to government supported corporations.

A lot of these corporations were not well versed with good crop techniques, but Monsontos was theipre to the rescue. Monsontos for years wanted control of the seedling markets, but there were strict laws in place to prevent ownership of patents on seedlings and for good reason.

The fear was that one sole owner would be able to control the worlds food markets and put societies at risk to manipulate the population in ways that could endanger human lives. The whole reason GMO's were created were so that Monsanto's to fulfill one agenda and that was a way to avoid the current laws for freedom of seed markets to find a way to get a patent and seize control.

So the cap on the prices only put this ball into motion. The new corporations buying into the bankrupt land also bought into Monsanto. They came out with a silver coated seedling, why???? So where is this story going? First those odd clouds that spread out from grid patterns of planes flying a mile above the commercial jet liners they keep toting as none existent.

They are dispersing metal particulates. Those of you may find yourself very systematic on these days and for good reason. Certain types of bacteria, fungus, and parasites accelerate under heavy metal environments.

Why metals, well I have a theory on that one too long to go over now, but I think it was kind of resolve two issues with innovation gone wrong type of deal. Monsanto's was miraculously prepared, the seedlings can endure growing in heavy metal soils Gee how mighty coincidental!

As my ex farmer boyfriend would say, "a real farmer can still out yield any scientific, pesticide using seed farmer even in a field of dust if he's a true farmer. Secondly pesticides killed the pests, but it was learned after the fact that these pests were killing plants that were infected by microorganisms.

Now there are no insects to kill off those microorganisms. Basically folks we are also ingesting them and this is why aerosol spraying makes us hyper reactive. Unfortunately these microorganisms that build in our systems when our immune systems are compromised leads to multiple infections and this doesn't include the illnesses caused by heavy metal toxicity.

As the years go on I am meeting neighbors, friends, patients in my doctors office or vets all with the same systematic issues and gee Obamacare comes in to electronify medical records, wake up people, you are medical guinie pigs for an organization that is neglecting you medically for a reason.

They are making a lot of money not just on investing on why you are sick, but pretending they are treating you so you can so-called get better. Mind you there are doctors out there who are truly aware and trying to help, but the majority will blame you for being sick and it is up to you to firm community groups to bring this into a legislative view to stop it before more become disabled or lose their lives.

If you are in the South Florida area keep yourself posted for a meetup support group if you are interested in advocating for the cause. It will be for all those being ignored and suffering medical neglect who want to take part in changing the silence on autoimmune and morgellons. I for one have seen and had enough. Give me a bit more time but I'm ready to blow the lid off this one and those looking for help I will try and do my best to get you to those who I feel are most beneficial, although I will say that is slim pickings, but at least we can compare notes, I will leave note here once I'm ready.

Dec 18, EOE and Steroids by: angrmorg They tried to first put me on a corticosteroid that wasn't even FDA approved, the side effects alone were scary. I declined that medication, then they put me on three others and you are right none work. Steroids do make parasites worse so do certain antibiotics. However killing them off, parasites can release bacteria so this is why you need a doctor to determine what and when you take various medications.

There are quite a few parasites people I know have had with Morgellons, round worms, tape worms these are really bad to have , hook, pin, shitsosoma, and filaria. You can have more than one. There are fungus issues as well as bacteria.

I don't know about your son, but I tested high for eosinophils, had excessive inflammation of throat and stomach, second endo showed groove forming in esophagus, he dialated a ring in my throat and that helped with choking on food every time I ate. It was a trade off though, I ended up with losing my voice some, I suffer with chronic sore throats, and my throat feels just pain odd.

If your son gets worse on medications it is a sign he may really suffer from parasites. I can't leave email as much as I would love to speak to anyone struggling with this, my heart breaks every time I read of the desperation we all suffer through. Doctor are very unresponsive, the best advise I have is if they aren't listening, then keep looking. Document, take photos, summarize important symptoms and be direct. Know that doctors may manipulate or simply lie about test results.

I take urine testing at home to monitor after I realized they weren't always processing my tests. Unfortunately doctor are still few and far between, I went to a research clinic just in sheer desperation for some relief, but relief isn't always what you get and you can be an experimental guinie pig, so if something is not setting well with you move on to the next, the goal is to get your son on something that actually makes him feel better not worse.

Dec 18, EoE caused by morgellons? Is there a way to talk to you? A few years back I self diagnosed morgellons. I had horrible skin sores, skin crawling, etc. However, my son was recently diagnosed with EoE. They have him on steroids. Any advice? I have to help my son. I am not sure if healing is really what we are doing, or does this disease take on cycles that only fool us to believe we are healing.

Today after IV antibiotics, you know the whole Lyme's story which I feel is just another agenda to hide the truth. Here's what I do know, in the course of being sick, this disease goes from skin issues to internal issues to disabling neurological conditions and in some death.

It effects both red and white blood cell counts, causes anemia and deficiencies in iron, b12, vitamin d. It seems to use protein, iron and biotin to produce itself. Note of hydrogen peroxide experiment. In poring hydrogen peroxide on granules in skin, they bubble heavily, this means they have a bacteria property to them, in second poring of hydrogen peroxide 24 hours later, nothing at first, then slowly bubbling with begin, granules develop sprouts.

Upon getting UVB IV treatments without oxygen big mistake, don't ever do this, I'm lucky to be alive , granules also sprouted while in my skin, learned treatments cause a natural form of hydrogen peroxide to be released into the blood, it shocked my body so bad I suffered six months of seizures.

Do not use hydrogen peroxide! There is a new and growing condition called EOE, it is a condition I believe is the later phase of morgellons.

It has direct links to a parasite called shitsosoma, forget parasite ova tests, they are worthless and if they do find a problem your testing results will merely disappear. I feel after speaking to various microbiologists this is a multi level infection, everyone is different depending on exposure which could be insect or environmental or chemical. Natural remedies do not work for everyone, some need extensive treatment by qualified professionals and unfortunately they are very hard to find because we are still Ginnie pigs to experimenting from them.

And yes, there is a huge coverup, but I will give you a hint: climate project bill mainly how do we do this no matter what damages occur legal work around signed by John McCain and Travelers Insurance. This is just the tip of the iceberg, do your homework guys, and pray! Jul 28, vigilance is key, but mix it up by: Rachel I've found that nothing works if you keep doing the same things, it appears to quickly become immune to all attempts.

This was frustrating to say the least and I started to lose it for a bit. I actually ate cake and drank espresso to "get them going" and then went yahtzee with diamateous earth, acv and aloe internally while sitting in an epsom salt, baking soda, turmeric and charcoal bath. Oh, while listening to a parasite cleanse soundtrack lol.

So after I stopped sneak attacking my own body.. I switched to cool showers with sulfur soap, turmeric and sandlewood soap and neem soap.

Alternating days. When I got out I blotted dry bc let's face it, towels won't kill you. I laid under blue led lights of and nm. Both are antibacterial but one reaches deeper and takes longer. Given how tired I was, I was fine with laying there. Afterwards I'd put a powder I made of diamateous earth, ceylon cinnamon, dash of turmeric, arrowroot powder, borax and pine essential oil. Dry worked best. Then the roll of bandage on each leg and some cute knee socks i made into leg warmers by cutting the feet off yo hold it all in place.

Major stress relief. Blackseed oil twice a day internally. Spot treatments of silver as needed, dandelion detox tea, echinacea tea, cell salts and a very clean diet. Wifi and electronics triggered me so I unplugged.

Laundry is hot water and seventh generation detergent with borax, baking soda and niaouli oil. Lavender dryer pouches from trader joes. Cleaning is routine: wipe down furniture and vacuum daily with a broom vacuum. Air purifiers going at all times waa a major game changer and cut back on how much I had to clean. Inexpensive shower filter, head n shoulders shampoo.

I made a makeshift sauna in my bathroom: infrared heater and 2 infrared heat basking lamps. This is once a week followed by a detox bath like listed above.

Stuff comes out and I'm dizzy, nauseaus and short of breath after but the following day is always amazing. If you get those little flies toss your plants and set out hot soapy water with a splash of vinegar and lots of bubbles all over your home. They're attracted to the heat and drown. Sorry for my unorganized info, just rambling off what has helped. I'm back to myself again. Still have sores but only on my legs and I don't let it keep me down.

Neem capsules twice daily is a must. Don't pick or look. When that familiar crawling feeling comes just do something else bc you aren't going to heal yourself with tweezers. Where you get 5, 25 more come. Let it be and make your body and undesirable place for this to reside. You all got this.

I promise. Mar 14, Alone by: Paula doe I have been using the Cure Sun powder with color safe bleach and Alfalfa tablets I read this online that it was a cure at first I started using it and it wasn't doing much of anything for me but when I continue to use it I couldn't believe I started getting migrations too. And I am also using clotrimazole cream and I'm eating Alfalfa tablets and I am drinking baking soda with water and lots of vinegar with the mother in Corolla this is working for me I'm getting better I'm itchy as all hell right now but I am getting better I hope I can help somebody out there as I've been helped by the lady with the Cure that took the bath with Alfalfa and son color safe bleach.

Her hero was her cat she is my hero so I think her and I of course thank Jesus. Praying does help also much more than you will ever know. I am going into a year of this absolutely real infestation! Jan 05, It's real!! About 2 years ago, I got very sick! I thought it was pin worm, although through stool samples, could not be verified with my Doctors?! After a Maui trip, I developed little hard bumps on my feet. Didn't think much more?! One day gone, next day back?!

I attributed it to too much cleaning, dishes, etc. Finally, this past summer, I said to my husband, "Can you feel your hair grow?! I thought, "There's no way I have head lice?! About a week later, I blew up, into welts, rashes, most horrific itch, from head to toe! I thought I had scabies?! We do frequent hotels, quite often. I swear, I really thought that's what it was?! For 2 whole months I treated myself for scabies! I spent countless money on every remedy I could find!

I washed sheets, towels, clothes everyday! Cleaned like a mad woman! Kept away from my family, and staying away from my grandbabies, especially hurt!

I didn't want to infect any of them! Interesting enough, my husband never got it?! We sleep together, have sex, etc.?! Couldn't understand how he couldn't have it too?! Every morning, I'd find little things on my sheets, underwear, clothes, thinking it's scabies mites?! Finally, we bout a high powered microscope. I would bathe as soon as I'd start rubbing in lotion, boom, little black spots everywhere!

I collected them all, thinking they were bugs?! Well, under the microscope, clearly untwined , fibers! Some appeared to be moving?! I developed scabs in my nose, which turned to impetigo!

Rashly face, body, nose Gave me a corticosteroid cream. Only made it worse?! She told me to see a phsychiatrist?! Well, that was it for me! I started researching like crazy! I started taking 2 tbs. Within these is all V-B's, folic acid, kudzu root, milk thistle, buplerum root, holy basil, ALA, gurana, dandelion root, turmeric root, grape seed extract, senna leaf extract, cayenne pepper, ginger root, licorice root, blueberry fiber, peppermint leaf extract, probiotics, chamomile, ltryptophan, lemon flower, hydroxytophen, Passion flower, ashwagangha, DMAE.

But only 3 pills! No more itches or rashes. Clarity is back! That's a big one for me because it got to a point I felt shaky, could hardly walk downstairs, couldn't sleep, couldn't focus at all! Ruined the holidays to say the least?! However, this worked for me! If this works for you, please let me know! Absolutely not! Good luck! It really does suck!!! Oct 27, high altitude kills them by: gina I believe Morgellons is a parasite also, I lived in san Bernardino ca. I moved to the Mountains at about 5.

I have lived up hear for about 10 yrs. I commute down to work, and back, and I believe like many bugs and parasites. Oct 03, 11 years now and still not well. And sores appeared all over my body. I told my neurologists and was told that the treatment couldn't have caused the sores. He suggested using probiotics to treatment. Next month I took another of the treatments, next morning my face, arms, feet, hands were covered with these stinging, biting sores.

The treatment was never done again. It had really helped me feel so much better regarding the M. Symptoms that I had been experiencing, but what a hell of a price.

I went to dermatologists, family doctors, and allergy doctors and was told the usual story, "you're crazy as hell", thers's no parasites in your body. I can see them, see the paths on the surface of my skin that develop when the instence itching is more than I can endure and I scratch the sores. Over time, the sores on my arms and feet have healed. The ones on my face went away quickly except for a place on my lips that has only recently healed.

I now have two small places on my left hand and, unfortunately, my right hand is still covered with the sores. They are painful and embarrassing.

I never found any of the recommended treatments helpful. Out of desperation I bought an anti fungal creame and antibiotic cream from the dollar tree store and began using them 3 times a day. It has been the only thing that has seemed to help. I agree with one writer who stated that these monsters will become immune to any one treatment so you have to rotate treatments.

I also have discovered over time due to having M. Eating sweets, which I love, also cause them to reproduce rapidly. Loved ones will tell you not to dig at the sores, but if you don't get them out of your skin, the dead ones will be visual through your skin if they were near the surface. Be careful removing them though because open wounds are places where they can get air. And, never cover them with band aids because they will tunnel out from under the bandage and make another sore. Good luck and never let anyone try to convince you that you are crazy.

You have to take things that kill the bugs inside of you otherwise they will forever hatch out of you. I go to a Lyme Disease doctor who claims it comes from co-infections from Lyme, Babesia and other co-infections of Lyme.

They have me on antibiotics, anti-parasitic med, anti-fungus med and cyst buster medication. I take about 35 natural supplements to help my immune system, my liver and a lot of other things. I take natural protocols to fight co-infections of Lyme. Research natural supplements and take silver biotics like there is no tomorrow. Eventually the bugs get too small to get into the carpets. Eventually the big ones all hatch out of your skin leaving tiny ones and then keep taking the meds and natural items and just keep going.

Cleaning the skin is fine but it's not going to make the parasites inside of you stop reproducing. Aug 17, kleen free by: bugsheretoo I am using kleen free rather than kleen green as it was easier for me to purchase kleen free.

I don't know if one is better or stronger than the other, but I am diluting the kleen free about 20 parts water to 1 part kleen free concentrate. I am spraying that on myself, clothes, furniture etc.

And never make the mistake, as other people are, of thinking that Morgellan's and Black Goo have any connection to each other. Black Goo is a different, important and fascinating topic Kauz-Vella will explain.

I do warn you, all of it is freaky! Jul 18, 15 year morgellons finally getting better by: sammie See my posting on Earthclinic. You may have to look a bit, but there, I have uploaded the steps you need to take.

Essentially you need to accomplish 4 things You will probably be doing this all at the same time. My posting on Earthclinic has all the info you need to start each of these four steps. One at a time, take it easy. A big word of warning, when you begin getting these monsters off, you MUST get your animals away, like someplace other than where you live.

If I had to do it over, I would find a place to reside with NO carpet. Try to do most removal activity in like one private room, bathroom would be ideal. This way you can keep it sprayed down and can wash yourself up.

But if you have had it for a long long time like me, everything will be infested. I keep my papertowels, tp, toothbrush all wrapped up seperately Ted who is a holistic healer posted the orginal formulas, which are also posted on earth clinic.

Look for his recomendations under teds remedies on Earthcinic. I just compiled a list of all the herbs, products and tinctures I use and will be posting this to earth clinic soon. Check out my post, it;s the real thing, there is hope and battles are being fought and won now a days with this war.

I have been doing my protocol for about 2. I think that even if you have a chronic uncurable health problem that you suspect weakened your immune system, the protocol that is in earth clinic should help, and you should try it. I have learned so much about this crap, especially seeing it comming out I dont think the researchers are going to be much help for some time Good healing to you! May 18, This really does help externally! Many people have found that using Kleen Green on their skin completely safe : after baths, and using it in their environment helps tremendously!

They also offer a discount to people with morgellons. May 07, my kids arent delusional by: christinaa So they say us morgue patients are crazy. It can only be sold as a water purifier at this point, but it heals many illnesses. Put about one drop MMS to 5 drops lemon juice and let stand about 5 minutes. It will turn a dark yellow and have a strong aroma. I use drops MMS with lemon in small glass in the morning.

Buy some Double "00" gelatin caps and fill using dropper. It is just too difficult to put mixture in water or juice and drink straight. Fill caps with MMS and lemon juice mixture and take pills 3 times a day morning noon evening. I took with food. I put the cap between my teeth and swallow quickly. I didn't want to taste it. You might get diarrhea. Don't worry, it is part of the process of cleansing body to begin with. You can also use mixture to clean sores with Q tip.

DMSO is also good for healing sores. Doctors are not understanding and probably won't help you. I saw over 30 doctors not good. Tell only people you trust about your condition and then think twice before doing so. This is in your blood so anyone who suggests getting rid of it with a bath solution doesn't know what they are talking about.

It is not in your head Bath every day with Borax. Witch Hazel will get particles off the skin. Witch Hazel will also get them out of hair. I seldom felt them on my head, but that got them out of hair. Just pour it straight onto scalp between shampoo and conditioner applications.

For children the MMS mixture amount would need to be less. I am very concerned for children who have this disease. They wouldn't know how to explain what they experience.

Give them much love and understanding. One more thing, antibiotics doxycycline may work for a little while, but then it comes back. Doctors are reluctant to give them anyway. It took me years to find the answer. God bless. They heal fast! I garuntee you will have immediate relief. Amonia is the only thing that kills them. Peace out, and God bless! Maria Vanderpool. Sep 15, Morgellons Treatment by: Angie Thank you for taking the time to tell your story and share your experience in dealing with Morgellons.

I'm sorry to hear that after all of these years you are still suffering so greatly. In all that you have mentioned that you have done to help combat this condition, you didn't say whether or not you had tried using a natural parasite cleanse and nutritional supplements to boost your immune system and give your body the support to help you fight off this condition.
