When checking for fibers, it is important to pick an area, (like your face if you are using an eyeclops) and wash carefully not using a wash cloth. Rinse well and air dry. Don't change clothes or touch any to the area that you are going to look at.
Then go ahead and check with good magnification. Some fibers are visible 60x-100x, while others need 200x. Morgellons fibers do emerge from the skin and can be found on top of the skin, but so do environmental fibers.
So it is best to look for the ones that are starting inside the skin and begin to emerge (they are visible when only partially emerged).
It is important to be sure the fibers that you see are not environmental before deciding; they are everywhere and a big clue that forensic specialists use in crime scene investigations.
If you find them after carefully following these procedures (and if they are not fully emerged), then that is pretty definitive. There are no other conditions where this phenomenon occurs.
Good luck.
