Verbal, thank you so much for your post and photos and details of experience. Before reading this topic tonight.....i spent a long time last night on youtube. I am trying to view MRSA, recluse spider bites....yuck....and compare them to what i am seeing happen with my morgellons lesions. How are they the same...how are they different. At this point, the one charateristic that stands out in my lesions is that the inside of a morgellons lesion is "cemented in". Although these lesions have a similar appearance to MRSA and spider bites....and yes they do "ooze"...but... under the ooze is a mass of layers of embedded "marbles" cemented together. Surrounding this structure of "the mass", is a circular "spill way". This bright red skin that surrounds the center mass is tight, hard and deep. I think it is "ooze" that was produced within the "mass of marbles" and had no where to go. This mess that surrounds the mass of marbles is the fault of the critter.....a lazy "couch potato" i call "Mr. Bean". As he eats and grows in his bubble marble, his **** piles up around him and surrounds him. ********My picture of concepts of the morgellons lesion, draws the lines of a whole new kind of skin sore to deal with. I have proceeded sucessfully with this line of thought for 2 years now. The first lesion i removed and learned on...above my lip, right side....was there for 10 years and has been gone for 2 years. I have removed all my lesions in the same manner since then. ********Although the appearance of an exposed and open lesion is not pleasant....the concept of removal remains simple and sucessful. The goal is to get out the center mass...then errode the "cement" under and around it.The thought i have is that the "red stuff" is the color the organism brings to the picture, and it is saturated into and amongst the skin. The goal is to "errode it from the top". If we could take a sander and just sand away...it would be quick. But...this is woven into our skin...so chemically sanding daily with chemical applications is much more realistic. I have found that the emotions of dealing with this are harder than sanding it off. Its appearance is decieving because it looks really nasty. But, its behavior speaks loudly. It may look like MRSA or a spider bite...but, it doesnt act like one. *********What does it act like? For me, my understanding is that this morgellons lesion is a messy mass pressed, dimpled, and woven into the surface of the skin. To unhinge its attachments is second to removing its factory making marbles. Inside those marbles i believe a mollusk is at work. Removing the center of its invasion leaves a hole...and, connected holes. These holes are good...they are the result of the couch potato and his couch now gone. What remains is cleaning up the piles of garbage left behind. This is not scary ...but is a tedious chore that requires patience and dedication until it is all cleaned up. But, the clean up is the same as the removal of the center morgellons mass of marbles. Acidic application dissolves the outer callus cement covering, baking soda(alkaline application) dissolves the inside mass. *********Daily i open these lesions with the recipe(1t.milk,1t.plain yogurt,1/4t.dry mustard,1/4t.ginger).....or Miracle Foot aloe cream(walmart $10). The recipe is stronger and drys fast, the cream is easy because it can be piled on the lesion and worn on top of it for minutes or hours. Once these chemicals have softened the covering....the soda application will fizz thru some of the cement layers. The soda can be worn in the holes left by the removed mass. The soda can be "sanded" into and over the entire lesion area and worn like powder. The soda can be scrubbed onto and into the lesion area before a final rinse in the shower. In time...this mess is erroded and gone....the soda causes a chemical reaction with all the embedded parts..fizzing and lifting the embedded alien substance up and out of the skin. The soda can go where we cannot, and the chemical reaction within the morgellons lesion is a statement of success, not because we understand it yet....but, because of what it is.....a whole new kind of skin sore....one that is defeated and erroded and removed by a simple chemical reaction to an alkaline substance going after it and mopping it up. Am i wrong about this? Well, i am wrong about alot of things but this is not about me....it is about the reaction of the inside of a morgellons lesion to baking soda. It is about at least 100 lesions i have no more to deal with. ********A morgellons lesion does not heal...it unhooks. As its mess is removed, our skin....released of this burden ...heals from the bottom up. The hard ball under the erroded lesion begins to soften. The hole left behind heals from the bottom up, rising to the surface again, no longer depressed with the weight of "cement". I believe the cement is calcium carbonate....the creation of mollusks.  |
