CDC to do 1 year study of Morgellons

www.local6.com

The CDC's year-long study will try to figure out what's causing Morgellons and if there's any way to treat it.

Finally, the CDC is taking this skin-disease seriously.

Yeah, it made my local news last night too.

I read the article from the CDC. Kaiser is doing the study and they are only using people from Southern California who are already patients of Kaiser and who were patients for the previous year. They also said there are currently no labs available to do the proper testing of the fibers, etc.

I think it is awesome that they are spending 400,000 dollars to do the study but I wish it was more open. By the criteria they have set it seems they are already manipulating the data to a degree.

They also stated it will take 12 months to do the study.

I suppose they have to start somewhere.

It's odd that this hasn't yet spread into the thousands since it was first noticed. It almost seems to be parasitic and feed off of the nerve bundles. Maybe this is related to MS and other types of infections. It would be interesting to see the research being done. You would think by now that they would have found evidence of a genetic structure and chemical make up.

Who's to say that this wasn't locked away somewhere within the frozen glaciers now melting and has now returned once more.

This is a pretty good site for information.

Scroll down a bit to get to some very interesting ideas.

The relationship to sea sponges really grabbed my attention.

It may be caused by nematodes or a fungal source.

i hate wiki but it was a quick read

delusional parasitosis?

wtf? thats crazy, i wonder what there findings will be, that is pretty insane

it kinda reminds me of fibromyalgia, there is no real test to diagnose that one either

hmmm

i thought there was a way to diog fibro...maybe i am wrong but i thought it involved pressure/pain points on certain spots in the upper back...

probably wrong but i thought i read that somewhere.
if there is no way to diog it then you can fake it and get serious narcs...my naighbor supposedly had it and always had oxy's on her....never in too much pain to bowl though..would go bowling every weekend but other than that, she was in too much pain to do anything but pop oxy's

Here is another pretty good site.

imageevent.com...

There is a slide show with 311 pics and much data as well.

Don't forget that many sufferers resorted to suicide in the last decade because no one would believe of validate this illness and they couldn't deal with it anymore.

I think we should take this very seriously.

This isn't help for us in an elitest view...

This is extermination. This looks more like another race exterminating humanity in a cheap, slow, little known way.

Do you think the Government would be releasing this stuff for their own families to breath?!

It is illogical! These photos over chem-trails and what they contain...the stories about all this stuff.... it is more along the lines of subtle extermination.


This is JUST my opinion garnered from this website only, and just now. It is just an opinion.

Hello everyone. I am the person shown in the latest video here in the latest KTVU News Health Segment on Morgellons Disease. The video showing my thigh was taken four years ago (as I appeared on one then as well) and I was shocked as I couldn't even remember (loss of memory is also a symptom) how bad it really was!!!!! I am now lesion-free.

I have been personally involved in this issue for four years to get the CDC to investigate this disease. I have suffered with this for four years. I have heard every idea as to what this is as well for the last four years. Being an ex-Veterinary Technician I immediately thought what I was experiencing .... the intense itching, slow healing and very painful lesions, cloudy vision, swollen legs and hands (to the point that I could not feel them), aching joints and muscles, chronic fatigue, and yes seeing black specks, fibers, and golden glitter exiting my skin ... was and had to be from some sort of parasite. Seeing a few doctors and being told that I was "self-mutilating for attention" and that "there was nothing wrong with me" .... became a battle that I soon gave up on with the doctors as none of them would take me seriously.

I joined three different Morgellons Yahoo Groups to share experiences and to also share self-treatment protocals. We also banded together to get the word out to the CDC to help us and take us seriously. I have litterally worked on this almost as a full-time job writing to Senators, Congressmen/women to the CDC, personally had been in contact with the founder of the Morgellons Reaserch Foundation (MRF), written to MANY hospitals, teaching hospitals, and government agencies to gain thier interest as well, in hopes of getting the CDC interested in getting this disease studied.

While waiting through this nightmare, I had tried many different treatment regimes. Through one of the groups I became friends with one particular member in Pennsylvania that was almost on the verg of suicide and then started taking an animal wormer with anti-fungal properties. I took it in a high dose at first which caused the cloudinesss of my eyes to clear, the swelling and numbness in my ankles/feet and hands to also dissapear. Over time at a lower dose the itching and lesions have stopped. I have been on this treatment for over a year and I am almost symptom-free. I Rarely get a lesion and if I do it heals in weeks instead of months. I no longer itch, however I do get some fibers and black specks continuing to appear from my skin but not like I had.

I do not buy into the nano-technology robots created by the government ideology. I do believe that a nematode, agrobacteria (which is also a commonality) and posssibly other bacteria, and fungus are involved. Many of Morgellons patients also are diagnosed with Chronic Lyme Disease (My test was 'incunclusive' but I have many Lyme symptoms as well)

Commerce (Food) and International Travel (diseases going global) are a very important factor on 'New Emerging Diseases' or the Global transfer of known pathogens!!!! The USA has been in denial of our citizens having any type of parasitic disease and our doctors have not been trained in this field!

I am a friend of 'goosdawg' and he can vouch for the fact that I am not delusional and that I do indeed suffer from a VERY REAL DISEASE!!!!!!! It has hurt and angered so many of us suffering with this when people dismiss us as being diagnosed: Delusions of Parasitosis. Any questions my fellow ATS members?
