Morgellons diseasemorgellons disease Definition
(from Wikipedia)'Morgellons' (also called 'Morgellons disease' or 'Morgellons syndrome') is a
name that was given in 2002 by stay-at-home-mom Mary Leitao
to a proposed condition characterized by a range of cutaneous (skin) symptoms
including crawling, biting, and stinging sensations (formication); finding
fibers on or under the skin; and persistent skin lesions (e.g., rashes or
sores). Doctors, including dermatologists
as delusional infestation (also called delusional parasitosis), the belief that
there is a pathogenic infestation that remains despite contrary medical
evidence.
Despite the lack of evidence that Morgellons is a novel or distinct condition
and the absence of any agreed set of diagnostic
symptoms,[http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=18367924

and the U.S. government's Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to
investigate the proposed condition.

present in Morgellons patients, the fibers found were normal clothing fibers,
and suggested that patients' sensations were manifestations of “delusional
infestation.”

Resolved Question: A cure for Morgellons in the Bay Area?
I live in the Bay Area and it seems it's becoming more common in CA. My family member has it and i have it a little as well. How can we fix the problem? Should we move out of the current place we are living in or try to clean the whole place thoroughly?These fibers are a pain in the as* and it can be caused by some infected q-tips (wood sticks) somehow with "hairs" growing out of them. We removed them, but kept some in ziplock bags to give for testing. Any who, we are both suffering and i was wondering if anyone has recently came up with anything to get rid of them. It would be so much help if i can get answers please before this becomes any worse. If there's homeopathic doctors that you know who deal with morgellons disease in the Bay Area please comment below thank you!
Resolved Question: Creeping Sensation on skin?
Hi, for 4 years now I have suffered with a crawling sensation under my skin. It started on the left side of my face after I switched to a different brand of make-up. After assuming it was an allergic reaction I stopped using the foundation for a month. The crawling feeling didn't go away and slowly it developed onto the other side of my face. Now it's all over my face, nose, ears, eyes and even my scalp. My GP sent me to a neurologist who done an MRI scan which was normal. I was then put on 3 different medications for Trigeminal Neuralgia but they didn't help. Recently the crawling sensation has moved to my hands and I can feel my joints cracking when I move. My GP doesn't know what's wrong and no tests have been done to find out. I've dones some research online and found a rare disease called Morgellons. Also I am not getting the lesions they talk about but definitely the creeping feeling. I have mentioned this to my doctor but of course she never heard of it. I'm totally on my own with this and at a lose. Anyone ever experience this before? I don't what else could be wrong.

Resolved Question: POLL FOR CANADIANS: What do you think of GMO's in your food supply?
GMO = genetically modified organisms, aka foods containing highly toxic pesticides/herbicides and other tox chems built in the DNA of the seed (corn, canola, soy, cotton, zucchini, beets & now alfalfa). Sub Q's: Do you eat them? Or is this first news to you?? Do you care about long term-health effects? Do you care about long-term environmental disasters such as Colony Collapse Disorder? (aka bee's extinction, global disaster which have been proven to be directly linked to GMO's but as long as the payola is there to quash turthful news report everyone has their heads up their behind; however without bees there is no possibility of life on Earth) Feel free to copy/paste this ready made answers if they match your mindset: I'm all for it it's awesome I'm a lazy Canadian and I'd personally like to thank the Yanks for bringing Frankenfoods that cause Morgellons' disease to my table, it might kill my mother-in-law I grab whatever is on the shelf and I chow down I don't care, they wouldn't sell it if it's dangerous, you can trust an American scientist. As long as they don't GMO bacon and maple syrup, we're cool I can't be bothered to watch no damn video Go away and let me eat in peace Do you mean these blue & red fibers poking out my skin and my scalp oozing glass is caused by all the GMO's I been eating? I maybe an uneduquated leizy tw*t but your an idiet Damn those lib yanks, Bush was the greatest Yank President evah!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh we don't know why bees are going extinct but it has nothing to do with the built-in pesticides that GMO plants carry/waft away, otherwise those greedy I mean nice people at Monsanto wouldn't plant that stuff in Canada our governement is not stupid/corrupt and woudln't allow it! Or...??? Canadians on GMO's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07pSYJ2qDIY Kreeos: please educate yourself and don't compare GMO's to hybrid or cross-pollitnation! GMO's are not even in the same zip code as hybrids! The bananas you speak of don't have built-in pesticides within their DNA spewing tons of lethal tox chems into its fruity flesh. (Of course there's GM bananas but that's another story!) The S.C.I.E.N.T.I.F.I.C evidence is out there. Go to Vimeo and search Jeffrey M Smith: he provides tons of scientific proof and it's documented on camera to show that GMO's have been proven toxic and lethal to certain persons. Those scientists who worked for Monsanto and uncovered that are on-camera explaining how they got fired once they came to the conclusion that GMOs weren't safe for animal nor human consumption, and their studies suppressed. All in the name of the payola, the geat American love for the dollar. But I guess you can bury your head back in the sand. How's living in la-la-land? :) @bw002: your agri-education dates back to the 1970's. Pre-history when it comes to GMO's! Educate yourself. Click the vids. Or be a lazy dumb@$$, bury your head in the sand and eat another helping of tox chems. How's living in denial? I'll be first in line to tell you "I told you so" when the effects of GMO cosumption start showing in YOUR bloodwork! =) @Jeff H then try lard! Olive oil is NOT a good oil to cook with! Only to drizzle in already cooked foods or salads. I cook with coconut oil or bacon fat. I use olive oil in my salads or I do without. @Randy B: hey! There you are! =D LOL!!! HAHAHA! You crack me up 75% of the time! There are 2 kinds of ppl in this world: the ones intelligent enough to educate themselves about an issue, become responsible for themselves and take action to change their behavior. And then there are the uneducated gullible fools who swallow the lies they are given because they are too lazy to do proper research or even watch a video that is way in over their heads. To them ignorance truly is bliss and denial a river in Egypt. I will be there to remind them "I told you so" when they are in their death bed with Morgellons or cancer. And they will still utter "there is no scientific proof" right before the croak. Right sweethearts: you are the only scientific proof that will matter at that very moment! =)
