Morgellons has now become some what of a mystery, said to be a new plague, although if anyone is looking for information they will find contradiction at every turn, some scientist and researchers claim, it is an "individual imagining the symptoms" to other researchers and scientist they claim it to be "caused by nano particles" .
When people began complaining of itching or the feeling something is crawling under the skin it was labelled as every conceivable condition, Lymes disease, scabies, allergies you name it, once the influx of infected people had 10 fold, it was then research was taken seriously, or was it ? It would be passed off as "all in the head", although particles could be found in the skin lesions these were said to be" material fibers" which we come in contact with through clothing.
Morgellons Research Federation have been investigating the disease, they found:
" There are six particle types that are consistently recovered from the skin surface of those suffering from Morgellons disease, 1) ribbon-like fibers, 2) rounded fibers, 3) capsule-like particles, 4) black flakes/grains, 5) worm-like particles, and 6) stellate-shaped (“starfish-shaped”) particles. The fibers are often pigmented and may luminesce under ultraviolet light".
Morgellons has been found to affect area's of the body organs muscles, all suggesting separate symptoms, although if you show any of the signs it does not mean you have the disease. Please seek medical advise for diagnosis if you do suffer any of the symptoms on list of reported associated signs and symptoms
Morgellons Head symptoms include Bumps, lumps, lesions or "channels" on head and headaches.
Morgellons Brain and Personality Symptoms, short term Memory loss, unclear thinking, your thought processing becomes very taxing and difficult, Unable to think of specific words when communicating,writing, and especially spelling, becomes difficult Inability to focus or concentrate - ADD/ADHD symptoms Mood disorders and mood swings, including loss of temper Libido - lack of (no sexual interest) Loss of interest in things that normally interest you Depression and/or confusion or disorientation personality changes, like loss of creativity or loss of existing skills Neurological problems - clumsiness, stumbling while walking, impeded speech.
Morgellons hair symptoms appearance - stiff, brittle and dry Wiry, uncontrollable hairs replace normal hair Hair texture and color may change as more "wiry" ones grow in Hair loss Small glob of clear sticky substance at root end of hair when it falls out, substance may coat hair shaft Hair color does not adhere well to new hair growth
Morgellons Eyes symptoms Floaters on eyeball surface Loss of visual acuity Increase in discharge, often stringy Sandy or gritty feeling in eyes Feeling of foreign objects in eyes but cannot locate or remove Eyes are extra-sensitive to light Eyesight is generally weakened Night blindness Eyelashes fall out, may be replaced with thick, wiry discolored lashes
Morgellons Ear Symptoms, itch as motile fibers move inside Ears ring or beep (but ears are clean) Ears become clogged due to sinus drainage Ears develop excess thick hair which may emerge from inside ear and feel very deep-rooted.
Morgellons Nose Symptoms Allergies or sinus problems - excessive congestion, mucus production Mucus is thick, stringy, cohesive, dries into very hard substance - almost glue-like Scents are not perceived correctly, may fluctuate from keen sensing ability to no ability to perceive any scent at all Nostrils develop excess thick hair Nostrils develop very sore pimples

Morgellons Mouth and Throat Symptoms
Teeth become sensitive, crack, chip, feel like they're becoming hollow Teeth become loose and/or fall out Sore or tickling throat Hacking cough Constant sinus drainage Glob of congestion always hanging at back of throat Taste buds malfunction, may fluctuate from keen tasting ability to having no taste perception at all
Morgellons Skin Symptoms
Crawling feeling on the skin, like invisible bugs Pinching, biting, stinging or prickling on the skin Lesions - itchy, sore or painful, very slow-healing with little or no infection, sometimes containing "fuzz" Crusts/scabs/callus-like formations on lesions - painful and difficult to remove because of tentacles clinging to flesh Open cuts or wounds - very slow healing with little or no infection, sometimes containing"fuzz" Objects described as "granules," hard and crystal-like, similar in size and shape to sand grains, can occasionally be removed.
These can emerge from either broken or intact skin Objects described as "shards," hard and crystal-like that are similar to glass that emerge from skin Black seed-like "specks" or "dots" on, or in, the skin or emerging from lesions Tiny "fuzzballs" in the lesions, emerging from lesions, and on (or falling from) intact skin Black tar-like substance coming from skin pores Skin texture - leathery, callus-like areas often where lesions had previously been located Growth of new wiry or thick hair over the top of where lesions had previously been Pimples - sore, long-lasting, can't squeeze out - contents are removed in same fashion as a splinter and are moist but cohesive Skin pigment changes (gets lighter or darker, more difficult to see in fair skin tones) Stationary or 'creeping' worm or wire-like structures can be seen just beneath the skin surface skin loses its elasticity and appears to sag, especially when warm, less so when cold
Morgellons Body Symptoms
Cannot sense temperature of water - water is very hot and it is not recognized Alcohol/liquor intolerance Appetite decrease or increase Weight loss or weight gain Food cravings or total lack of interest in food Gastrointestinal problems Swelling or edema, including breast edema, feet especially known for swelling Back ache lower back Back pain neck and shoulder pain Chronic fatigue total exhaustion, physical depletion
Insomnia during nighttime, or sleep abnormally long amounts (day and night) Weakness - strength diminishes Bloating Joint pain Muscle twitching or cramping Dizziness, disorientation, vertigo Seizures Blood pressure problems (high or low) Heart races or beats irregularly for no apparent reason Liver problems.

Abnormal overheating as well as temperature loss problems Excessive sweating Cannot stay in sun for prolonged periods without becoming ill Drastic body temp fluctuations New, normal temp runs lower or higher than your previous "normal" Bowel habits change, loss of muscle control Stools contain foreign-looking matter Urine has foreign-looking matter particles or black seeds, hair sometimes encased in mucus-like substance)
Incontinence Immediate pain that occurs simultaneously to untouched lesions on other parts of the body when another lesion is disturbed Hardened splinter-like material beneath skin that is difficult to remove, extremely painful, and odd in appearance once removed Ingrown hair that is difficult to remove, extremely painful Hair strands that are unusually thick or doesn't look like other hair
Fingernails change shape and/or texture Fiber or thread-like material emerging from the skin, or visible just beneath the skin - may be black, white, tan, clear, red, blue, or rainbow colored. Some fibers may exhibit movement. Lyme Disease shares overlapping symptoms and the borellia bacteria with Morgellons Disease (applies to human and animal lab results)

Through the research of Dr Rahim Karjoo was said to have found a strong presence of particles such as silica, silicone and polyurethane on the skin surface, it was not isolated to surface but also found in the deeper layers of the skin. Dr Karjoo noted Morgellons disease as a condition that effects the hair as well as the hair follicle, as a result the spread of infections including inflammation ulceration abscess formation fungi and structural changes to the follicle, this occurred in 85% of sufferers.
Microscopic examinations reveals obvious changes to the hair filament, varying in thickness colour and other abnormalities of the hair shaft. On every patient it was shown that they had a strong presence of silicone particles.
Based on the extensive research conducted by Dr Karjoo it was also clear that illness were being caused by the nano particle silica, which left unusual hair and skin conditions. The conditions became known as "Karjoo Phenomenon"
Could this disease be what was referred to back in 1610, in the edition of Schenckius' "Observat. medicae rarae, Frankfort, Schenckius, in his VII Observation, Lib. V, in his VIIIth states
" Worms or, as others will have it, Hairs, which are wont to infest the muscles of the arms, calves, and back in infants and children, and which are unknown to the old authorities"
Biologist Mary Leitao refused to accept the medical skepticism surrounding Morgellons. Leitao’s son, Drew, was just 2 years old when Leitao noticed an odd sore on his lip that would not heal.“He very simply said ‘bugs,’ and he pointed to his lips,” said Leitao.
Leitao never expected to find herself at the center of a medical storm. But when her son complained about the strange sore, the biologist, who once ran the electron microscope at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, did what any scientist would do. She took a closer look.
“What I saw were bundles of fibers, of fibers,” Leitao says. “There was red and blue.” Even stranger, "they glowed under ultraviolet light".
“What I saw were bundles of fibers, of fibers,” Leitao says. “There was red and blue.” Even stranger, "they glowed under ultraviolet light".
Armed with research, Leitao took her son to a Dr at one of the country’s leading hospitals. He dismissed her tale of fibers and wrote to her pediatrician, saying that her son needed "Vaseline for his lips" and that his mother needed "a thorough psychiatric evaluation".
Undaunted, Leitao began poring through medical literature looking for clues. What she discovered was a 17th-century reference to a strange disease with “harsh hairs” called “Morgellons.”

" Worms or, as others will have it, Hairs, which are wont to infest the muscles of the arms, calves, and back in infants and children, and which are unknown to the old authorities"
description of the condition with that was also given by Kufner in his appendix to the book on Diseases of Infants, written by Leonellus Faventinus de Victoriis. This runs as follows:
"There exists in little children certain living principles having the appearance of worms, that are called by the common folk Dracontia. They settle especially in the muscular parts of the body, to wit the arms and legs the calves especially. Occasionally they even congregate in the flanks under the skin, and sometimes occupy the whole of the back, or failing that at least the interscapular region. These little creatures have this property that, unless they are extirpated by the appropriate remedies, they lead either to a hurtful suppuration, or else forthwith cause the child to waste. We destroy worms of this type, that are in the habit of lurking in the pores of infants and little girls, with this cure.
Should they fail to become more prominent, that is should they, having applied warm fomentations and smeared on an edulcent (such as Melicraton) and spice, not thrust out their heads, then they must be positively shaken into coming out into the open. Take as much of the root of the wild vine, or of the white vine, as may be pressed into one hand: Boil this in a lye made from properly mixed oak charcoal. With this the whole body of the child, and at the same time the worms, should be sprinkled and washed. Having done this the mouths of the Dracontia which will have advanced forward are to be shaved off with a razor. When these have been beheaded in this manner, the child should be cleansed afresh from the aforesaid lotion by bathing in castor oil, and should then be washed and the exposed, and possibly cut, skin smeared all over with Syrian salve.
Other complaints of the disease come leaking in, Koch, of Clearwater Beach, recals how her life was good until one day in the shower when she noticed something strange tiny fibers running through her skin.
“The fibers look like hair, and they’re different colours,” Koch said. Koch said she knows that what she experienced “sounds crazy,” but it’s true. If I had a family member call me up and say, ‘I have this stuff,’ I’d say, ‘I’m sending a straight jacket over. You need some help,’ she said.
Koch went to the Mayo Clinic, where doctors didn’t believe that the fibers she’d brought them had grown from her body.
“I saw the infectious disease doctor, and I showed him some samples that I had and he snickered,” she said. “I can’t go through another doctor blowing me off or looking at me like I’m crazy. I know I’m not.”
Dr. Vincent DeLeo, chief of dermatology at New York’s St. Lukes-Roosevelt Medical Center, weighed in on what he’d say to someone who came to him with this condition. “I don’t think this is any different than many patients I’ve seen who have excoriations and believe that there is something in their skin causing this,” he told ABC News in 2006.
DeLeo said the open lesions were most likely a result of scratching the skin
Then there was Anne Dill as she described a similar condition to Morgellons. Dill seemed to be living the American dream — her three daughters excelled in sports and were straight-A students.
However life in the Dill household was far from idyllic. Anne’s 40-year-old husband, Tom, died in January 2006, and she believes his death was due to a contagious illness that has infected her entire family. Dill described her family’s skin: “There’s this fibrous material. It’s in layers.” Dill said the skin on their hands was particularly." bad, very swollen and itchy, and said it felt as if bugs were crawling underneath the skin"

Dr. Greg Smith of Gainesville has been a pediatrician for the past 30 years, he claimed that a fibre came out of his big toe, he also claimed to hold the footage. (pardon the pun).
Dr Smith recals to ABC News in 2006,
"It felt like somebody had stuck a pin into my toe wiggled it, continuing to hurt"
He added he never thought he had bugs, "Iv'e certainly had those crawling sensations, and the fibers which came out of my body are very real and strange".
As a Dr he stated that if a patient had said the same he would of "wondered if he had taken his medication that day". Try to stop scratching, even if you can't reach. It seems these few people to mention have had real symptoms with real signs of something strange occurring to them.
I don't believe these people have mental issues clearly something is not right. Maybe there is a connection to the Chemtrails reported around the world, a comprehensive view of this matter is put forward in the love for life report, "Truth about Morgellons(and how its man made") this would be the perfect way to introduce nano technology, chemicals that are released on to unsuspecting people, animals Nature, a report set out from Health freedom on Chemtrails and Barium can offer educational insight! pathogens have reported to have been released into our atmosphere, and anything else that can be sprayed in to the atmosphere that will be introduced in to our systems.
I have read reports of "Artic goo", which appeared from nowhere, although residents claimed it had rained that evening, officials say "It's certainly biological," although it could not be identified,' either way it is clear that something isn't right and if you are effected by this terrible disease you are not alone below you will find useful links that will put you in touch with many others, its time this disease is taken seriously.

Thank you for this information. --Marta from New Orleans
ReplyDeleteI remember you helped me make sense of this 9 years ago, glad this is now being recognized as a serious problem and neurologist as I was told. I'm better but not healed yet. Keep up the great work you help so many without even knowing. Abie-x
