MORGELLONS SYNDROME IS REAL. SEE http://WWW.HEALINGRESEARCH.ORG FOR A SYNOPSIS.HOWEVER, DO NOT EXPECT PHYSICIANS TO BE ABLE TO TREAT THE CONDITION EFFECTIVELY. FIRST TOLD IT WAS ALL IN THE MIND¨DELUSIONAL´ THE POOR DOCTORS ARE LEFT WITH CONFUSION IN TREATMENT—LACK OF STANDARDS, LACK OF DIAGNOSTIC CRITERIA, UNAVAILABILITY OF INFORMATION. THE BOOK ´WE ARE NOT DELUSIONAL.morgellons disease and the northward movement of parasite conditions seen on http://www.earthwaterbaths.com is the only comprehensive text about the condition at this time. Prior name was ¨THE PARASITE EXPLOSION¨but in our current environment, the word Ëxplosion¨caused too much concern.

One of the bad things about morgellons is that there is no “one treatment fits all” approach. What works for one morgellons sufferer does not work for another. Morgellons is almost like an aids virus type. It mutates so that it cannot be fully destroyed. Morgellons is a nightmare and a nightmare coming to everyone soon if nobody finds a way to conquer it.

Is Morgellons an Internet Disease?

Morgellons Lesion

The Internet has made a huge difference in people’s lives. Information, once difficult to obtain, is now easier than ever to find and very valuable in everyday life. This is obviously true, especially if you have a new disease such as Morgellons. Morgellons sufferers often spend hours trying to discover what this devastating disease is, who created it, where it came from and whether or not it is contagious.

And therein lies the rub; many debunkers of Morgellons say that this is not a real disease and the only way to catch it is by surfing the Web. They say that Morgellons sufferers are self-diagnosed and there is no scientific evidence to prove that Morgellons is in fact a real disease. They go on to say that Morgellons sufferers share stories that generate the symptoms and more symptoms then generate more stories, much like a snowball effect. They claim that Morgellons is delusional and that Morgellons victim’s self-abuse their skin to create their own non-healing lesions and press fibers from clothes closets into their skin to create the appearance that fibers actually do grow out of their skin. The debunkers of Morgellons also state that because of blogs, forums, and social networking sites that Morgellons has proliferated to the point where this disease seems to spread based upon common stories that are ‘made up’ on the Internet and can not in any way be true.

What is Morgellons disease? According to the Morgellons Research Foundation, lead by Dr. Randy Wymore at Oklahoma State University, “Most individuals with this disease report disturbing crawling, stinging, and biting sensations, as well as non-healing skin lesions, which are associated with highly unusual structures. These structures can be described as fiber-like or filamentous, and are the most striking feature of this disease. In addition, patients report the presence of seed-like granules and black speck-like material associated with their skin.

Although skin symptoms are of particular interest to this foundation and are extremely troubling to patients, they are also a vital clue that something is terribly wrong with the body. More significant than skin symptoms, in terms of the diminished quality of life of the individual with this illness, are symptoms unrelated to skin, to include Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), Fibromyalgia (ME), joint pain, and significant problems with concentration and memory.

Remarkably, not all people with this disease have overt skin lesions, as some individuals report intact skin. The troubling sensations and accompanying physical structures are the consistent clues to this infectious process.” Further research demonstrates that there are approximately 93 common symptoms and not all symptoms need be present for self-diagnosis.

This viewpoint creates some very interesting questions:

How can people around the world suffer the same delusion if they have no access to the Internet or each other?
Why is it that when scientists apply scorching heat to the Morgellons fibers, they do not burn, but rather disintegrate at 1,400 degrees Fahrenheit?
How is it explained when scientist analyze the fibers that grow from the skin of Morgellons victims are covered in high-density polyurethane?
Is there a rational explanation why Morgellons babies, coming from a water-filled environment (the womb) are born with hard lesions and the newborn child has no fingernails with which to scratch themselves?
How is it possible to video-tape ‘critters’ coming out of Morgellons victim’s skin if they are delusional?

Clearly there are more questions than answers.

You do not have to have been in the US Civil War to know that it happened. You also do not have to have been there 30 years ago when AIDS victims presented themselves to the medical community for help to know that they were treated about the same way that Morgellons victims are being treated now. They were dismissed as ‘delusional’ often incarcerated involuntarily in mental hospitals, ridiculed and told “it is all in your head.” Thirty years later, AIDS is a pandemic disease rivaling Cancer that decimates the victim’s immune system.

What happened in order for the medical community to actually ‘take a real look’ at AIDS for them to invest BILLIONS of dollars into AIDS research? There needed to be a financial incentive for researchers and pharmaceutical companies to devote money to discovering what AIDS is and how to effectively treat it.

When Morgellons Disease infects a US Senator, a celebrity or some other well-known personality, sufficient public attention will arise and when there are sufficient numbers of victims, the established researchers and scientists will begin to investigate Morgellons Disease in earnest.

In the mean time, what can a Morgellons victim do to reduce the relentless pain and suffering? They turn to the Internet to find lotions and potions that occasionally produce some minor and temporary relief. They share stories and support each other in any way that makes sense to them. Some have taken ‘dog de-wormers’ and other harmful substances labeled ‘not intended for human consumption.’

It is a huge stretch of the imagination to assume that Morgellons victims have made up stories based upon what they have seen and shared on forums and blogs. These people suffer 24/7 with the sensation of ‘critters’ biting and scratching them. They endure non-healing lesions and severe ‘brain-fog’, depression which can lead to suicide, chronic fatigue and irritability. Their bones ache and some Morgellons victims experience their hair and nails falling out.

These Morgellons victims need to be treated with respect and compassion, not distain and contempt. They are our mothers and sisters, fathers and brothers and they need our understanding and caring. They need to be listened to and taken seriously. They are human beings that suffer horribly. Who knows; you may become symptomatic from Morgellons Disease and wish you were believed as well.

Hi im writing to tell you about my dad who has suffered with morgellons diesease since 1990. He used to do metal detecting on local fields and was a keen gardener which ment he was always in contact with soil. when he first got the symtoms he thought it may be scabbies. After loads of vists to the doctors who were baffled by the symtoms and refered him to a skin spicalist who took a look at what he had pulled out of his skin. They told him it was some kind of fibre but didnt say if they thought it was man made or organic.In the end they said he was slowly going mad. He was 50 yrs old at the time he is now 70 yrs old and still suffering. This also proves that he didnt get the symtoms from the internet and make up his illness as the internet wasnt around then.

Morgellons Sufferer Tells Her Story of Triumph

Hi! My name is Connie and I’m a victim, I believe, of a disease presently known as Morgellons. I have traced my symptoms back to as far as 10 years ago, based on the information I’ve receive from other people that have this infection. I am a 54 year old female. I was born and raised in Nevada. I live, presently live, in Reno. And I have all my family here, I’m divorced and I have one adult daughter. And just to begin my explanation of my experience, I’ll tell you that there’s no one in my network at this point in time that shown these symptoms visually or otherwise. About a year ago, at this time… it was in January, I noticed some little green fibers that were starting to show up on my hands and arms. And I attributed it to disassembling an artificial Christmas tree that I had. I thought maybe it was the remnants or remains of particles from the manufacturing of the tree. Well the symptoms didn’t go away, and they actually got worse. I started noticing that I was more depressed. I have had a problem with what is known as “brain fogging” for many years, but it seemed to escalate at that point of my life. I was having a lot of joint pain… wondering if… why am I having arthritic pain in summer months. I was suffering confusion, frustration… I was tired all the time. I slept a great deal. I napped when I could. I just seemed like I couldn’t get enough rest. About four months passed, maybe five and in May I was talking with a friend and I showed him my arms and said “Look at this!”

In that four month period these lesions had began to surface where the fibers where… where, this fibrous material. Now granted, I could see these with the naked eye. I did not need a microscope. Some of them were curly. Some of them where short. Some of them were a little bit long, less than a quarter of an inch, but they were all green and they were all real. I, at that point collected some samples of them. Put them in a plastic vile. I took them to a dermatologist and she absolutely refused to acknowledge that my little “so to speak”, “matchbox sample” was real. What she told me when she saw these lesions, and at that point they were very bad and I had it up and down the tops of my arms, and I had them at the back of my hands… she keep kind of nagging me and saying “Don’t pick at yourself anymore. Don’t pick at your, your hands”. Well I walked away angry from that particular encounter. A few months later while I was still fighting with this lesions, I went an saw an “Ear, Nose and Throat” doctor, because I was having a tremendous sinus problem where I was blowing a lot of blood and strange mucus out of my nasal area. And interestingly during the… after the x-rays, on the a pre-op visit, he looked at me and he said we’re gonna get in there and fix this deviated septum. And he said were gonna look at this other tissue in there or this other matter. Well this other matter, I’m firmly convinced was Morgellons, and it was, you know, the disease building itself in areas in my body where it could breath and grow which were my sinuses, my throat. I had chronic sore throats. And then a friend of mine… well, this friend showed me… Introduced me to NutraSilver… and at that point I was desperate. I had no other way to turn. I had been to dentists. I had dentists look at my teeth and tell me there was something not right. I’ve had this derma… two dermatologists… I had gone to a dermatologist ten years ago, and I was treated with massive doses of antihistamines. Three different kinds… because I had this severe itching. When we discover when these symptoms probably began, at the onset I had these terrible attacks of itching on my arms and couldn’t wear any heavy clothing. I couldn’t wear any animal knits. Nothing… I mean I was miserable! I went to my family doctor and we thought maybe I was going through the “change of life”, which I wasn’t. They did a test for that. My blood pressure was checked and it was determined that I had a high blood pressure. I’m self diagnosed. There’s no doctor in this area that I can find that is willing to acknowledge that I have this disease. So I… this is all my diagnosis… my opinion. It’s my body, I know what’s going on with it. But anyway up until that point these symptoms just keep building and persisting. What brought them to the surfaced where the lesions were visual, I believe was stress.

I was going through a very depressing, debilitating, personal part of my life. Last, a year ago this last May. And it was then that the lesions started to form, and they were coming out. They were started on the lower part of my arms… and they were slowly gravitating up in my arms. I had them on my hands. I was starting to see a little bit of tunneling, but not much.

And I went to visit a friend one day, and he looked at my arms he says “Wow! I have something I think you need to try.” he says, “Just take this and rub it on your arms.” and so we did… or actually it was, at that point it was just on my hands. And so I rubbed it on my hands, and “My god“… I could not believe it! I had skin and these little fibery things just coming out of my hands.

Out of my palm… the back of my hands. We were both amazed! We were just sat there and watched this for about an hour and we couldn’t believe it. And so we thought well, let’s try this. Let’s try putting it, you know everywhere that I have an open lesion or an area that looks likes its you know it’s been exacerbated by this affliction. So I did, and after several months of using this, and journaling about it and photographing it, I realized that the lesions that I was putting the NutraSilver on… That’s the name of the product that we’re talking about, were healing and I was actually having… I don’t know… matter coming out. I don’t know what you wanna call it. Maybe under a microscope… you might see a parasite or two. I don’t know. Some of it looked like it was moving and live, and I was having many more fibers. I started getting red. I started getting blue. I started getting uh… I mean these things glowed… under a camera eye. Well what we realize is that the lesions I was putting the NutraSilver on were healing, but I was getting new breakouts, new sores in other areas around that. So we realized, or I realized that it was spreading. It wasn’t getting better, it was getting worse! And so we stopped the NutraSilver. I went to a deep depression and thought you know, this was, “Now what am I gonna do?” and…

Then I said to my friend… my colleague… I said “You know? Something strikes me here if the NutraSilver has the effect of spreading or moving this parasite or whatever it is under the skin, what would happen if we tried it internally? Took it orally? If it moves on the skin, maybe it would move through the blood streams and the body and push it out?” And so that was our next motivation was to try that, and in a few words it worked! It was the most phenomenal difference for me in my whole well-being and visual observation of what is going on. We started me with ten drops twice a day… excuse me… three times a day, in water and I tried to you know make sure that I took it at the same time each day, morning noon and night. Within the first 24 hours I noticed a tremendous change in how I felt psychologically. My mind was clearing up. My vision was… I didn’t realize before but it, this was affecting my vision. I was having a lot of blurred vision which I thought was just me because I am severely nearsighted. I started eating better. The lesions began to heal, slowly but they begin heal.

The chronic fatigue disappeared within a week. It was like my whole new part of my life had erupted, and I still need a lot of rest because the symptoms of this disease actually keep me awake at night. There were times when my feet would tingle or I’d get these, uh you know there’s a syndrome out now that they talk about where your legs do funny things and the muscles twitch. Well my feet did that a lot… and my hands as well.

That stopped with the use of the NutraSilver internally.

The depression lifted. It didn’t completely go away because my depression is hereditary. I have since started taking 40mg a day of Prozac and I doing really well with that, but initially I think the NutraSilver did have an effect of my depression. The brain fogging… gone! It was essentially gone. My memory was good. My short term memory was good. You know I was even starting to recall how this disease have progressed over the years when I started learning about how and what other people had. The healing was amazing, and again, I still, it took… the lesions healed quicker with the use of the NutraSilver…
and it took a while because I had quite a few on my arms and I started having them show up on my legs and that started happening when I was using it topically and that’s really when we got scared and realized that you know we better not do this topically anymore because whatever this thing is, its in my body and what the NutraSilver was doing topically was just moving it… and my thought was well if its moves by use of it topically… “What would happen if I took it internally and got it in my blood stream?”. Again we saw amazing results!

The other thing I noticed right away too was my joint pain. I would get up in the morning and I had very little back pain, and now I have none. Oh lets see…in October, September-October of last year.

We decided to do a purge. We came up with the formula with the NutraSilver and decided that, you know, my symptoms not quite all gone away and we wanted to try to possibly see how far we could push this whole thing since what I was doing was working very well on that regular basis. So we upped the dosage and began what I call the “three day purge”, and at that point I started taking 7ml (approximately 150 drops), which is one small little container of the NutraSilver diluted in a glass of water. Very little water, 2 to 4 ounces actually, because we wanted it to get it into my blood stream quickly and absorb quickly. So I started doing that three times a day. On the first day I took my first dosage at about 11:30 in the morning, and twelve hours later… that night… about eleven o’clock… the purge began and it was horrific! It was absolutely horrific! I wanted somebody to be there, and then I didn’t want somebody to be there, because I didn’t want anybody to see me. But I had… I’m gonna call them parasite, because I believe that’s what they were.

They were small. They looked like worms. Very small. Kind of beige-y color. Very wormy looking. They were soggy. I had, initially I had them coming out everywhere they could. Wherever my body had an orifice… my eyes… my mouth… my nose…
and they seemed to be predominant in my nasal, my sinus area. And I realized that they were gonna push out through my skin wherever they wanted to. That they may go to areas of my body where, that had not been exposed to the parasite yet. So I… after the first… What do I want to call it? Not phase? But after the first episode. I waited to see how long it would take this cycle to begin again, and I continue to take the NutraSilver in the 7ml amount, in 2-4 ounces of water, for three days straight. And what occurred is a cycle. These critters have a cycle to them. They’re just like any other parasite.

I would get about a 45 minute break in between, and then they would flair up again and start coming out of my skin… my finger nails… my toe nails. They were coming out of my feet.

So I decided I wanted push them out one or two areas only, and “vector” them as the scientist would say. Push them in a certain direction. So I used a combination of Vaseline and NutraSilver, and began to coat the parts of my body that I wanted to push, to keep the parasite or… creature from coming out of, and it worked! What I did was I pushed them out through my finger tips, my toes, the bottoms and the heels of my feet. My biggest concern was my face, because I could see them tunneling up my eyes. I could see them in the corner of my eyes. You know I was even able to pick them out of my eyes in some point. I could feel them in my ears, and that was another area. And that was a tough one because you can only get Vaseline in there so far. I had to keep my scalp extremely moist because they wanted to come out through my scalp and my… Of course, these little guys like the hair follicles and that’s what they thrive on. For months I had these little curly hairs on my legs, caused by the parasite living off by the follicle. I’m sure. Feeding off of it . But this purge was… It was incredible! I did get some video on it. It would have to be cleaned up in the laboratory to see, but I had them coming out my lips and in corners of my mouth… Flowing. They were spilling out during purge. My feces was loaded. I mean for three days after they purge I was, I could see them in the toilet bowls and I know that its not a very pleasant thing but you need to understand that the NutraSilver forced this thing out of my body and I tried to, I really did try to journal it but it was very difficult. It was very ugly. It was very depressing. It was very hard for me. Doing this video is difficult because I know there’re going to be a lot of people… Maybe even scientist? Maybe even doctors? That will review this video and they’ll laugh at me and think I’m nuts. Well you guys are the ones that are nuts because I’ve been there, I know what this thing did to me, and I know how much it affected my life and changed my life. It completely altered my life to the point that I considered suicide. I didn’t want to have go on living that way. Afraid of going in public that I would break out or that one would come crawling out of my eyes. The fibers were the most phenomenal thing in this purged.

I have the photographs to proved it; balls of fiber with a little body of some kind, a little round jelly like body in them. Almost that had a little eye on it, that almost looked like a camera. Ok? I mean it look like an eyeball with hair on it. And I had those poring out of my scalp. I was finding them on my carpet after the purge. But I did come up with a, you know a crude way of controlling their exit. I wish now I would have collected some sample, but I was in so much pain even as medicated as I was… and I was alone. It was difficult enough having to transform myself from this hideous monster… into the person I am right now. A I have… the before and after photographs… prove my story. This is a real. This disease is real.

The symptoms are real. The NutraSilver, I feel, it gave me back my life! It gave me back my livelihood. It gave me back something that I thought I had lost! Either the disease was gonna kill me or I was gonna kill my self.

I’d like to make a closing comment. I have no need to sit down and make up a story like this. It’s not a make up story. This is a reality. NutraSilver saved my life. It gave me back everything I ever wanted. I’m not making any money by making this video. I’ve asked for the copyright to it, only because I wanted to control where it goes and who it goes to. But I want the world to know what NutraSilver did for me, and “come hell or high water” so to speak, I want everyone out there that suffers from this disease to know that you have my support, you have my love and I will do everything I can to bring you my story, my experience and encourage you to try this product. At least buy one sample of it and try it because it saved my life. I wouldn’t care, you know, how much it cost me or what. Like I said I’m not getting paid to do this. I’ve not been coerced by anyone, I’ve not been asked or given any favors. I just want the world to know that I know there a lot of sufferers of Morgellons out there that have no hope, and hopefully this video will give you that hope.

Morgellons Attacks Teenagers Too;
Danny Shares His Story of How He Got His Life Back
Dear fellow Morgellons victims,

I’m writing on behalf of all the young people and the elderly with Morgellons who have been shunned, criticized, and outcasted by society thinking we suffers of this horrible disease are crazy. I personally knew absolutely nothing about this disease until I came home from school one day of September 2007 and noticed granule-like crystals on my hands. I also noticed clear fibers that appeared to be coming out of my hands as well. I went to the computer and typed in “black crystals on hands?” or something to that extent. I stumbled upon a few websites that had details of Morgellons symptoms and the blue, black, clear, and red fibers with granules coming out of hands, body, and or hair. I didn’t automatically assume I have this disease after a couple months of thorough personal research I had whatever this bizarre disease was. Every single symptom I had matched everything I read. I had everything from the physical identification of Morgellons right down to all the mental and cognitive disorders of Morgellons; brain fog, I slept constantly, depression, insomnia at night (slept all through the days), lost a lot of weight, everything aliment you could imagine I had. But by far the worst symptoms was the anxiety that would come out of nowhere, it literally felt like I was even in my body at times.

It began to slowly but surely rule my life. I noticed the fibers everywhere in my home, friend’s homes, family member’s homes, these fibers were everywhere but I was one of the only that had symptoms to this extent. My friends and family had the fibers on there body and hair as well. My friends were the only ones who believed me about the fibers and knew I was sick. I tried to express to my mother and stepfather what was going on but surely my mother thought I was loosing my mind which I can completely understand because of how bizarre this disease sounds to the layman. Finally after convincing my mom I had this disease I stumbled upon a website called “NutraSilver”. My mother personally thought I was crazy but my stepfather said “whether its in his head or not we can see if this helps”

So my stepdad bought a bottle of NutraSilver and it came with another for free. The first night I tried the NutraSilver I had to lie down in bed with my mother I trembled so bad. When I woke up the next morning I felt slightly better. I started to use the NutraSilver a couple times a day and just put some drops in my daily routine of drinking water. Everyday progressively got better, I started to forget completely about Morgellons and live my life. It ruled my life, I am an 18 year old male (at the time I was 17). I also stumbled across an amazing doctor and friend named Dr. Susan Kolb. I found her website when I was researching about Morgellons and even though I lived many states away and was very embarrassed I deciding to just call her and tell her what was going on. She talked to my parents, talked to my family and tried to express to them that this is a real disease. Still after all of that they still did not believe.
I’m sick of people ignoring this disease; even doctors are ignoring it. I know there are so many people that are struggling with this disease everyday, and I truly desire for them to live their life and again and take back what’s rightfully theirs.

My life is finally coming into view again, and I literally owe my life to a man named Russell at NutraSilver and a wonder Doctor by the name of Susan Kolb. I have never met a person so dedicated to seeing their patients or customers get better than Dr. Kolb
Without their help, guidance, and advice I’m not too sure how long I could have held out with all the depression and anxiety.
My final advice to any man, women or child with Morgellons is get NutraSilver, have a positive mind-set and lives your life again; I don’t want anyone to go through what I have been through with anxiety and depression.

Sincerely,
Daniel W.

If you have this ailment - fibers, lesions and itching. Dr. Staninger is the only one who knows what this is. This is nanotechnology. The fibers where examined and this is not a parasite. The only thing that whats at getting this out of the body is Dr. Staninger’s protocol and far infrared. Here are instructions for her protocol:

Dr. Staninger’s Protocol - Far Infrared and Supplements. The FDA does not allow her to officially treat morgellons disease but you can still make an appt with her or buy her products online. If you contact her do not mention morgellons only mention that you have fibers and lesions.
