Hi its me again

[lynnschnepp]

Hello everyone its me again. I haven't been here for a while. I'm still struggling with this horrible nightmare and I keep thinking that somehow someone or something will make it better. Its been ten years with this same problem and just when i think that it can't get worse it gets worser. My symptoms are way worse. I am still working but having a hard time with mind fogs. I am contiuously hurting with lumps in my muscles especially in the neck and shoulders and everywhere else just downright aching. It has gone into my bones and now they hurt. I was in ER last month and they found the ekg was showing heart damage and now I have to be seen by a cardiologist. They are now in my organs and I can feel myself slowly deteriorating. I just don't know what to do anymore. My insides hurt so bad and I feel like I am going to just die. Please Please can someone please help or please just give me some hope. It's becoming such a struggle and it is wearing me down.

Hi Lynn,

It has been awhile since you have been here. So sorry that you are feeling so ill. I know what you mean about lumps and how much they can hurt. I had some on my lower legs which are improving with the use of some new herbs from my TCM practitioner which is cleaning out the liver and colon areas. I think colon cleansing helps get a lot of the toxins from the body and it could be a direction to think about if you are strong enough (the heart issue could mean you are too weak and you should probably okay something like this first). There is also colonic irrigation by some alternative practitioners. I know these parasites can get in the heart as when I was first sick my heart used to palpitate. Herbs helped that too. I do not know what you can afford, but if you can find someone who knows about herbs, either a Western herbalist or a TCM acupuncturist you might find some help. Here's a recent thread started by another member who is new and perhaps some of the replies may help:

Help! I am a New Morgellonite and I need your help

I wish you the best for improved health.

Thank you for the info. I know that the last couple of months I haven't been feeling very well inside meaning that i get tired really easy and my heart palpitates a great deal..Thats why I went to ER because it was beating hard and would stop.. It was doing that every day especially at night when I lay down. At the same time my head felt like there was pressure in it. I have been coughing alot of liquid out of my lungs. It sure seems like a long road that never ends and I keep hoping of an ending. I think that I am going to see this complimentary doctor that I use to see a while back. She use to give me herbs. I kind of gave up on trying to get help and doing research because it is just such a disappointment in the end. I tend to dread the thought of trying to see another Doctor and the disappointment that comes with it. I have realized that this website is the only answer and comfort that I will have and I'm going to use it towards my advantage. I'm going to read everything that everyone has to say and learn by it and in return maybe I can help someone else. Thank you for writing me back.

Hi Lynn,

Welcome back, although sad you don't have better news about your health.

I have been posting quite a bit regarding Candidiasis because IMO it plays an integral roll in this. Even if it didn't have anything to do with 'Morgellons' per se, it turns out that it is grossly over-looked by mainstream medical doctors. It can become systemic and it can be very serious.

I hope you read through my threads about it. I'm betting it will help you.

BTW, you mentioned in one of your first posts that it all started with you when you moved into your house. Is there old plumbing? Is there mold/dampness anywhere?

I'm sure you will find help here, Lynn...hang in with us.

p.s. have you ever been tested for candidiasis? Probably not. Read my poll thread on it, okay?
Also, I am sure I have polysystemic candidiasis and am taking the steps to rid myself of it. I'm feeling it in my breasts, my stomach/intestine/colon area and liver. I used to get palpitations, but they stopped when I stopped eating my one and only bad thing when I was too tired to cook anything....canned soup which is loaded with MSG. But I'm now getting them regularly again. have them as we speak as a matter of fact which tells me I definitely have the systemic candida.

Lynn -

Have you been tested for any nutritional deficiencies? Vitamin Bs, potassium, iron, etc?

I have discovered for myself that with all of the infections I have in my gut, I developed food intolerances and am not absorbing all of my minerals. I have a severe vitamin B12 deficiency, and I'm not sure how long I've had it. If it's affecting your heart.. maybe you are low on some mineral? I know that magnesium and/or potassium deficiencies can affect the heart.

Welcome again Lynn, but sorry you are returning under the present circumstances.

I agree w everything said above. In particular, anything you can do to cleanse (colon, candida, neurotoxins, heavy metals, etc.), while simultaneously building/strengthening (herbs, tonics, organic foods, etc) would be my recommendation. Of course, as mentioned above you must be sure to do those things in a way that is safe for your heart.

If you don't mind, can you tell us (just in a few words or so because I dont want you to dredge up unhappy memories) which things helped you the most, and which things seemed not to work?

One thing I have noticed is that MANY ppl who claim to feel better state they were helped greatly by FIR saunas or heating pads. Also, FIR is reported to be VERY GOOD for heart conditions. Is that something you would consider trying, if you haven't already?

Well, good luck. I will pray special prayers for you.
