morgellons researched

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

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"


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".

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.”
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"

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.

Morgellons disease information



HEALTH CONCERNS



Morgellons disease

Morgellons is a multi-symptom disease that is just now starting to be researched and understood. It has a number primary symptoms: pyhysical, Sponanteously Erupting Skin lesions, Sensation of crawling, biting on and under the skin, Appearance of blue, black or red fibers and granules beneath and/or extruding from the skin Fatigue

• Mental , Short-term memory loss Attention Deficit, Bipolar or Obsessive-Compulsive disorders Impaired thought processing (brain fog) Depression and feelings of isolation. It is frequently misdiagnosed as Delusional Parasitosis or an Obsessive Picking Disorder.

Who : Adults and Children are equally affected by the disease. Individuals in families can experience symptoms of the disease while other members are unaffected.

So it is not known, at this point, if the disease is contagious or inherited. Multiple members of a family can have symptoms.

More than 3,000 households have registered with the Morgellons Research Foundation. The Morgellons Research Foundation is the main conduit for information and networking between sufferers as well as medical professionals.

Where : Most cases in the United States are from specific geographic regions of California, Texas and Florida, though all 50 states have had reported cases. Oklahoma has reported numerous probable cases. It has been reported worldwide in places such as Europe, South Africa, Japan, The Philippines, Indonesia and Australia

When : The Morgellons Research Foundation began registering people with symptoms of the disease in 2002. The name "Morgellons Disease" is based on the description of a similar fiber producing condition, found in children by Sir Thomas Browne in 1674. Microscopic drawings, dating from 1682 by Dr. Michel Etmuller appear to be similar to the fibers from present-day sufferers.  
1674. Microscopic drawings


There is no evidence giving preference to one season being a more likely time to contract the disease. There are patients who have claimed to have had the symptoms for as long as two decades. Most were diagnosed with Delusional Parasitosis and/or Obsessive Picking of the skin. Medical research started in earnest in 2005 at Oklahoma State University Center for Health Sciences in Tulsa by Dr. Randy Wymore.

Why : There are doctors who believe it is related to an infectious agent, perhaps in the same family as that which causes Lyme Disease. There is no evidence to prove this theory at the present time. Morgellons is coming to the forefront now, due to the concerted effort of the Morgellons Research Foundation, founded by Mary Leitao, whose child suffers from Morgellons Disease. Attention needs to be drawn to Morgellons so:

o Doctors will become informed and make accurate diagnoses
o Insurance companies will cover medical expenses
o Major government organizations (the CDC, for example) will pay attention and start funding research

How : There is no definitive understanding of how the disease is transmitted. There is no conclusive evidence showing whether it is contagious. Some families have only one member who is affected, even after long exposure, while other families report multiple sufferers. A cure will be pursued when enough research is done to find its cause. You can help by: Contributing time, money and resources. Spreading accurate information and combating ignorance about the disease.

Research teams dedicated to understanding the nature of this new disease
Morgellons is a term used by many countries around the world to describe a medical condition that has the following set of symptoms.

These symptoms include itchy skin, with crawling, biting sensations, white granules from skin and hair follicles, chronic fatigue, sores/lesions and fibrous material coming from skin.

Morgellons Disease, is not a recognised condition in the UK.
Why? Because very little clinical research has been done so far.

The term 'Morgellons', may disappear once the cause has been determined. Until then, this label helps to distinquish it for all those interested and concerned - whether it's to gain knowledge for professional purposes or to locate the centres of support that are available for sufferers.

For public and professionals that wants to raise awareness in their community, organisation, GP surgery etc, please make use of the Action Resources.


Morgellons UK is especially keen to hear from: Members of the public that are personally affected by Morgellons General Practioners and other Health care professionals Consultants; Dermotologists, Infectious disease specialists Scientists of various disciplines, involved in research; Entomologists, Microbiologists, Parasitologists Department of Health and DEFRA officials Politicians (Councillors/Members of Parliment) Vets Environmental Health officers, inc. pollution control and Pest control professionals Water Authorities, dealing with wastewater and sewage.

Information gathered from reliable sources who are currently in study of this disease, in the above case see http://www.morgellonsuk.org.uk/

Other parts of the world show signs of this dreadful disease, questions are bore towards the Chemical spraying that is going on everyday across the world from what we think to be commercial aircraft. ' There is strong evidence linking Chemtrail aerosol fibers to Morgellons fibers. Samples have been taken and analysed with startling findings, Nano particles have been found, Below is information pertaining to a Nano particle/ Nanorobots.

"Airborne nanorobots can identify their host patient by chemical signature, much like a bloodhound or mosquito following its quarry's scent. Such chemical signatures or "odortypes" may include:
1. naturally-produced "baseline" chemical scents;

2. behaviorally-related scents which may appear or intensify during specific events such as heavy exercise, fear reactions (e.g., emotional excitement alone can increase the sweat rate by ~50%), defecation or flatulence, sexual activity, intoxication, and the like;

3. artificial scents such as perfumes, colognes, cosmetics and deodorants; and

4. artificial molecular taggants specially designed to simplify the recognition task, as for instance an odorless, volatile, digitally-encoded messenger molecule emitted from an external facility that is controlled by the patient.
Also:

5. Airborne nanorobots can stationkeep in the vicinity of the host patient by acoustic homing on a coded ultrasonic beacon worn by the patient, all of whose emanations are inaudible to the human ear.

• Airborne nanorobots can navigate and avoid no-fly zones (Section 9.5.3.6) by various methods. For instance, a flying nanorobot approaching... human flesh would detect thermal emissions.

• ....all aerial nanorobots can continuously transmit relative skin-proximity data to their neighbors, allowing each device within a virtual "warning lattice" to estimate its rate of approach to the nearest prohibited surface.
• ... nanorobots can also detect normal conversational speech at a range of ~2 meters using >2.4 micron3 pressure sensors (Section 4.9.1.6).

So far there are more than 10,000 families who report that they suffer from this disease.
These chemical are very small particles (nano).

They easily bypass our body’s defense system as these particles enter our lungs. If exposures are short, you can feel queasy, have pain or just feel sluggish. Should there be long-term exposure, your body’s immune system can be compromised.

Significant evidence exists that links these chemicals to health problems with the heart, lungs, kidney and other body organs. Damage to the immune system, eye irritation, stomach problems, hormonal imbalance and reproductive problems can also materialize. Health problems can be mild or worse, and even life threatening

Stated in this Government document

Nanotechnology: The Future is Coming Sooner Than You Think,

Abstract of document

Enhanced abilities to understand and manipulate matter at the molecular and atomic levels
promise a wave of significant new technologies over the next five decades.

Dramatic breakthroughs will occur in diverse areas such as medicine, communications, computing,
energy, and robotics.

These changes will generate large amounts of wealth and force
wrenching changes in existing markets and institutions.

This paper discusses the range of sciences currently covered by nanotechnology. It begins
with a description of what nanotechnology is and how it relates to previous scientific
advances.

It then describes the most likely future development of different technologies in a
variety of fields.

The paper also reviews the government’s current nanotechnology policy
and makes some suggestions for improvement.

Physics — The construction of specific molecules is governed by the
physical forces between the individual atoms composing them.

Nanotechnology will involve the continued design of novel molecules for
specific purposes.

However, the laws of physics will continue to govern
which atoms will interact with each other and in what way. In addition,
researchers need to understand how quantum physics affects the behavior
of matter below a certain scale.

• Chemistry — The interaction of different molecules is governed by
chemical forces. Nanotechnology will involve the controlled interaction
of different molecules, often in solution. Understanding how different
materials interact with each other is a crucial part of designing new
nanomaterials to achieve a given purpose.

• Biology — A major focus of nanotechnology is the creation of small
devices capable of processing information and performing tasks on the
nanoscale. The process by which information encoded in DNA is used to
build proteins, which then go on to perform complex tasks including the
building of more complex structures, offers one possible template.

A better understanding of how biological systems work at the lowest level
may allow future scientists to use similar processes to accomplish new
purposes. It is also a vital part of all research into medical applications.

• Computer Science — Moore’s Law and its corollaries, the phenomena
whereby the price performance, speed, and capacity of almost every
component of the computer and communications industry has improved
exponentially over the last several decades, has been accompanied by
steady miniaturization.

Continued decreases in transistor size face physical barriers including heat dissipation and electron tunneling that require new technologies to get around.

In addition, a major issue for the use of any nanodevices will be the need to exchange information with
them. Finally, scientific advances will require the ability to manage
increasingly large amounts of information collected from a large network
of sensors.

• Electrical Engineering — To operate independently, nanodevices will
need a steady supply of power. Moving power into and out of devices at
that scale represents a unique challenge. Within the field of information
technology, control of electric signals is also vital to transistor switches
and memory storage. A great deal of research is also going into
developing nanotechnologies that can generate and manage power more
efficiently.

• Mechanical Engineering — Even at the nanolevel issues such as load
bearing, wear, material fatigue, and lubrication still apply. Detailed
knowledge of how to actually build devices that do what we want them to
do with an acceptable level of confidence will be a critical component of
future research.

The chemicals found thanks to the experts, are on par to Biological Warfare, however it is disputed that Weather Modification is the cover up to continue the aerosol spraying
Some of he chemicals sprayed into the air, which are said to alter the atmosphere/environment are said to be Sulphur Dioxide. Aluminium Powder and Barium Oxide just a few to mention



H.A.A.R.P High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program is an ionospheric research program. The ionosphere is the uppermost part of the atmosphere, between the thermosphere and the exosphere, distinguished because it is ionized by solar radiation. It plays an important part in atmospheric electricity and forms the inner edge of the magnetosphere. It has practical importance because, among other functions, it influences radio propagation to distant places on the Earth .


D.A.R.P.A Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency is an agency of the United States Department of Defense responsible for the development of new technology for use by the military. DARPA has been responsible for funding the development of many technologies which have had a major effect on the world, including computer networking, as well as NLS, which was both the first hypertext system, and an important precursor to the contemporary ubiquitous graphical user interface.

In general the disease Morgellons opens theories of our own, government’s experiments! In reflection to these findings a petition was raised with 10 Downing Street to where they have refused to make comments regarding this matter, so the fight goes on.
