If you treat “hundreds” of Morgellons patients, then you must be able to diagnose them. What are the diagnostic criteria for Morgellons?

You commented on the bottom post of the main page, which has several posts on it.

Obviously from time to time, someone will come along with Munchausen’s, but I can’t give any specific examples.

I think you distinction between emerging and new does not hold water. If it’s “emerging”, that implies it was previously known about, and is just increasing in prevalence. It’s new to science. Nobody has ever described a disease with fibers like this before. It’s new.

Didn’t know I was in the wrong place, thanks. I’ll re-post some here so others will see it.

Emerging does not mean new:
“Emerging” means just that, it is coming-out. The West Nile Virus is an emerging infection in the U.S and it’s certainly not “New”.

Thanks for the correction. Maybe I’m wrong, I don’t remember exactly where I was reading – but it seemed that you tended to liberally through out accusations impliing others (people I know @ M.R.F.) are being disingenuous in their statements and motives. If you can’t show a history of this behavior, or evidence — than this is just hitting below the belt (it’s too easy to do). What is the differnce between that and calling people liars. I know you can’t stop many other bloggers (can’t reason with many of them either), but please try to stay above the bar. My apologies if I’m wrong.

For you and the rest, who still just don’t get it. This is not a “skin problem”, or irritation, or rash, or any other common skin infection or disorder! Much more severe symtoms come with it.

IT IS D E B I L I T A T I N G ! ! ! — GET IT ? ? ?

If I (and the other sufferers) could function and live our lives in anything close to a normal fashion, we would not be crying out-loud for relief and going on TV. We would just be dealing with the irritations as best we could, like you everybody else.

Why would anyone (otherwise normal and successful) put themselves on TV to say; “I’m very sick, and I need some help, and I’m not getting any relief”?

Come down to earth people!!!

To say there must be other motives defies any common logic and a basic understanding of human nature. These people have reputations in thier communities, why would thay risk that for a moment on TV? Sure, many like a moment of fame; to testify as a witness to something, or to demonstrate something or someone they might be proud-of. A desire to publicly say “I’m sick”, just to get on TV?, NO-WAY !!! Everybody (with a reputation) would choose a different line than that!

I have always hated going to doctors, and still do. I waited until I was desparate for help. That was 6-years ago, I’m still just as desperate now. By the way, I’ve been diagnosed as having a dozen differing ailments, disorders, and/or infections, including tinea, by dozens of different doctors each diagnoses to be rejected by next doctor and replaced with another. I’ve been on every antifungal drug available, no help.

I’m lucky to have found a very well respected Dermatologist with a PhD at Major Medical University, for two years he’s been trying to diagnose and treat me. He is convinced that I have something (not dilutions) so far his lab does not have the ability to identify the composition of the fibers, but they are not saying that they are textile fibers, the lab reports term them
“unidentifiable”.

You want proof of my “different” fibers. Can I send you photo’s?, do you wand me to send you samples? I’m always short on time, but if you want them – I’ll find time to, I don’t have a web-site.
