Morgellons?

[daveaple]

I was looking at a shaved facial hair under a microscope, and I noticed this strange thing on the hair.

I posted a picture here:

I looked at a different hair and noticed this similar thing:

Do you think this could be Morgellons?

It sure looks like it to me. Are you having other symptoms?

Also this is a good angle, which is a casing of a morg related larvae, (imagine it rolled up like a tiny white cigar shape), intact with black spec and filament.

Hello Dave and welcome to the forum.

If you can, you should get the dvd from the 2009 Austin Conference (go to the Chas Holman Foundation website). Dr. Wymore shows an image very similar to the whisker you show, with the whatevers wrapped around it. He talks quite a bit about it and other findings. I've watched it 3 times but could not summarize it for you.

Looks like it to me...I can't diagnose it...but it looks pretty familiar. Bad new if it is...good news...for once its good to be "late to the party" as we're EXPECTING news any day now for the CDC regarding thier study...me I'm skeptical about it but thats just from the lack of response from them to date.
I wish you luck and hope thats not what it is...but if its bugging you enough to be looking through a scope it can't be good.

sounds to me like you have it-sorry bout that.

[posey]

yes dave it does look that way and i am very sorry too. But welcome to our community here.

I'll never forget my first realization of just what i had. I grabbed a roll of paper towel, went in my bathroom and just sobbed.

I feel bad for you as well as everyone else. This is a thing that is spreading so rapidly. It ranks higher than a Stephen Speilberg movie as far as horrific goes.

In my mind, there is no such thing as science fiction movies any longer. After experiencing this, I believe they can all be possible.
