i have an idea!! contact tv show 'the doctors'

[Enviro Girl]

What's common about a large-scale corruption investigation into the CDC, AMA, EPA and FDA that would simultaneously be covered by all major media venues, in more countries than ours - whether the media is corrupt or not?

I've yet to see that a Congressional Hearing didn't work to draw attention to Morgellon's. Did I miss a memo?!

You musta, coz it's called a revolution not a congresssional hearing when every government agency is at fault and the people find out.

Sorry to say janedoe, ideas have been presented many times before. Problem
Is, You Can't Get 2 morgies to totally agree on Anything. Disagreeable should be added to the list of Symptoms.


It's a good a idea though

The Doctor's already did a program on this disease last fall. Dr. harvey agreed to treat the young lady on the program for one year.

I just went to The Doctors website. I searched Morgellons and comments came up. A poster named Electrical posted M is Tapeworms and said something about it is on the CDC website listed as an epidemic.
Check them both out.

bee, what do you mean the morgies cant agree? just because we have different symptons doesnt mean they should dismiss us. i say keep asking them to look into this, let them know people are afraid for themselfs and others.we sure dont want to spread it, we all have questions about it.
that sucks you didnt get good responses from them, how did you describe it? i think if we emphize that this is making people literaly suicidal, they may pa more attention.
also, ive always found when writing to something tv shows, its best to keep the email as short as possible. again, thats sucks they dismissed you, but we got to keep trying, ya know? dont get discouraged, its probably because the 'smart' doctors cant figure this out, so rather than look dumb, they sweep it under the rug.. >if i dont see it, its not there< type thing. but too many people have this. dont get discouraged, keep doing homework on our own, compare notes with each other until a light bulb goes off in somebodys head..

[janedoe]

i just went to the site, they have like 715 pages of ideas.. ok, well, i was just throwing ideas out there..ok, ill keep thinking. i still stay we shouldnt give up

[hellalone]

janedoe,

You are right, we should not give up. We just need more thought and exploration. I am hoping that this will be brought up at the Convention in Austin.

It would help if we could get a celebrity or two or three to make their illness very well known! I know there is Joni Mitchell (?). There is at least 1 more celebrity, just cannot remember the name.

Let's keep talking and thinking about a GIANT shout out.

You guys, I don't think you saw what lamb wrote.

One thing about the show they did, Lamb and all, although I did not get to watch it I heard about it, and what some ppl said was that they did not address most of the real issues that come up when ppl have M, including the way they are not examined but get told they are delusional.

Also, from what I was told they acted like it was oh so easy to treat, but they never said how. So what needs to be done is to ask them to do a follow up on that person AND have a new person. They should go into all the nasty details and delve into the fact that we are not taken seriously so we cannot get real exams or get help. Insurance companies and HMOs will not make money off of us if they give us an accurate Dx.

They also need to say the specific protocol and if it worked. The should show microscopic images of our skin. They should pull stuff out of our skin - sick as it is, it would prove this is real and get them great gross factor ratings.

-----
Also one of those news journal shows should do a hidden camera with one of us going to doctors' offices but not getting examined, but still getting Dx w a mental disorder that the doctors are not trained to assess. But they would have to also have a good doctor do tests on the same person to show that real problems come up. Thatwould be a nice scandal for them, and get us credibility.

In addition to Joni Mitchell, I've heard one of the Mandrell's also has it. As well as a famous baseball player whose name I cannot remember.

If Barbara Mandrell and her family became advocates they would really help the cause. I think Joni Mitchell is too sick but more importantly it sounds like her ppl try to discourage her from speaking out.

It would be incredibly hard for the Mandrell's or anyone to come forward. Any celebrity who did it could pretty much know their money was going to stop coming in, and their love- their work - would be taken away. It would probably be a career ruiner for the person brave enough to make a stand.

Sooner or later, maybe some brave person will do it, but I can understand those who do not feel up to taking on that battle. All of the venomous hate that is spewed against us, will be targeted at that person. BUt still, sooner or later someone will likely face taht challenge.
