Valerie -
I just went to your blog and read a little more about what you are doing.
I want to commend you for being aggressive in contributing to this mystery. You clearly are turning over every rock to try to find answers from your personal experience.
This might be controversial, but I also applaud your judgement regarding having these samples analyzed. I get worn out with reading what people think they are finding under their microscopes. We are not scientists, we don't have the foundation to make those interpretations.
I know of a case where someone dug out a lesion and examined stuff she found and said she found "eggs". When the material was examined by a pathologist, the "eggs" were adipose tissue - fat cells!
