Has an infected CDC doctor come out to tell the truth about Morgellons?

[MeaganM]

I found this info with the help from Polly and thought it was important so I wanted to make a new thread. Apparently, this former parasitologist is claiming that he worked with the CDC and was "let go" when he acknowledged and was infected with Morgellons. This was posted a week ago in another forum. If it is legit, it could be the breakthrough that we have all been hoping for. This is also of interest to those of us who have been suspecting fly association with this disease.

Hello, my story is similar but the beginnings were different. As a former human parasitologist, I had occasional field calls to inspect various areas/people for possible new species of insects that could negatively impact any of our bodily systems, contagions related to insect infestations, ad infitum. (I will speak in layman's terms throughout this post to hopefully educate you who suffer from the same 'delusional parasitosis' as I so affectionately have been diagnosed from a once colleague of mine).
3 years ago, while following up on a rare form of an intestinal parasitic worm found inside employees at an import/export business, my infectious disease jump suit apparently malfunctioned. Instead of breathing in the oxygen supplied by the apparatus, my suit was in emergency 2 (meaning that both forms of supplied, clean oxygen were not utilized due to a malfuction, thus initiating a very fine filtered environmental air to my person to supply my oxygen). The oxygen lines were intact, but I had inadvertantly breathed possible contagious air from an environment that was under agency investigation due to a possible human parasitic contagion. I was unaware this had happened and remained at the scene to complete my work for a period of four hours and seventeen minutes. This, I am certain, is where the source of my own parasitic 'bug', so to speak, was birthed and made manifest.
Once the discovery was made that my suit had failed while in an environment with an unknown human parasitic nematode (with an unknown infection path), I was ordered quarantined and placed on administrative leave until I was cleared for any possible sources of parastic transmission. Needless to say, I was cleared within forty eight hours and was back in my office within seventy two hours.
Upon my reentry to active employment, I had began to notice an acute sensation of crawling, biting and all other characteristics associated with this insect in which I have read all other members of this forum characterize rather well. I will inform those of you who suffer from this 'pest' the origins of it, the potential health terms associated upon long term exposure with this parasite, and a method in which to eradicate this parasite.
Before I begin, let me affirm my own symptoms and observances I made while I was unwillingly made familiar with this parastic, unknown life form. A brief list of my afflictions/observances are highlighted as follows: (the characteristics in which I will describe happened in a crescendo fashion...or slow to fast) 1. crawling, especially on scalp and eyebrows 2. an occasional bite, or pinch, which occurred anywhere on my body 3. constricted asaphogus upon helplessly respiring this insect 4. the insect had an acute attraction to bodily orifices such as ears, eyes, nose, mouth, anus, and urethra which thus left me constantly guarding and/or cleansing these areas 5 'tear drop' skin lesions which if squeezed, emitted the insect responsible for my affliction(s) 6. upon viewing my phlegm/saliva, I would observe the insect both fly and/or jump away from the spot in which I had emitted the phlegm/saliva (which was causing me discomfort) 7 etc. The characteristics of the insect itself in which I had observed were: 1 various shapes, sizes, forms, colors, etc. 2 could fly, float, jump, and/or crawl 3 fiber-like cylindrical aberrations which were attracted to a particular area of my body (non-Morgellons) 4 the insect could fly at speeds in which I calculated at 54 kilometers per hour, 5 the larval stage of the insect was a crescent shape and usually had formed two - three appendages, 6 the total size of the insect could be either miniscule (microscopic) or up to 5-6 millimeters 7 a gnat/mosquito which appears to be in the family of drosophilia was the final adult product from this genetic mystery.
When DDT was sprayed a few decades ago, there happened to be two forms of insects which had developed an immunity to this powerful insecticide. These insects were prevalent in the Middle Eastern climate although they could adapt to just about any type of climate within a few generations. These two insects (which I do not at the moment have the paperwork which gives me their proper names) wreaked financial havoc in the farming community at the time. A motion was passed to administer another powerful insecticide closely related to DDT, but had the capabilities to eradicate these two insects that were resistant to all known and used insecticides. This took place in Israel. A few weeks after this idea was gaining momentum, the Seven Year War had begun. The start of this war essentially destroyed any legislative momentum that had already begun with the farmers and their insecticide.
At the same time, in Jordan, a genetically modified version of these two insects were created which did something very different from its two cousins: instead of feeding on the various regional vegetation, it fed ONLY on the two insects that were resilient to the DDT. This 'super bug', as it was called in Jordanian, had an incredible ability to quickly evolve, and better yet, survive. The bodily evolution was such that after every three to four generations, a newer, better form of this insect would emerge, almost incapable of successfully reproducing offspring with its grandparents generation (despite the fact that they had comprised the same race). Experimentally, the name of this super 'bug' hero to the unknowing farmers was labeled j2d363.

Continued below....

To those of you suffering with this horrendous apparition in which I have been speaking of, I offer my sincerest apologies. Unfortunately, the many menialities of life has left me no time to do anything other than the mundane. Once again, my sincerest apologies to those of you searching for the answers to end your suffering.
Once again, I will speak in layman's terms to those of you who know who I am and have read my earlier addition to this ongoing conversation. (For the sake of simplicity, I will simply continue exactly where I finished the last time I visited this online forum.)
j2d363 had (and still has) unique, and almost God-like attributes (I apologize to those of you who take offense to my rather 'loose' terminology in regards to the force you consider to be the Power Above Yourself. But, in retrospect, as I ponder a phrase in which to classify this anomaly, the term 'God-like' is the phrase which seems to resonate the best to my diction and knowledge in regards to this 'insect'.) As I have stated already, the gentic modification that j2d363 is able to successfully complete in a relatively short time period is awe-inspiring. As the regional farmers in the Middle Eastern countries congratulated themselves to their now 'insect free' crop, others (whom I am not at liberty to say) saw a very huge market in the manufacture of this insect. There is an old adage which I believe every person capable of mature thought has once in their life pondered - riches are made through opportunity. Just as the day traders made a fortune off of gold once the towers collapsed on September 11th, 2001, so to did the men responsible for insect-free products. As is witnessed nowadays everywhere throughout the world, not only does one need a powerful insecticide to maintain a wealthful crop output, but in addition one needs a parasite capable of eliminating any insects after the application of the insecticide itself has been applied. Thus, the new age of insecticides was introduced - parasitical insecticidial applications (PIA).
When a body politic has a common cry, many acts of benevolence (for the citizens of that country) can be accomplished. The country then flourishes in all aspects of what we know as civilization. It is not until a country has obtained a 'peak', so to speak, when complacency and corruption form. With this comes factions. With factions comes sub-factions. With sub-factions comes the unknown disunity and harm to the country in which this factional minority claims is a part. Thus, the environmentalists of the new America is the sub-faction of which I speak. As the momentum has gained speed for this group of self-claimed Earthly egalitarians, so to has harm. The insecticides in which many of our earlier generation have used now have been deemed 'harmful' through the voice of the environmentalists, thus opening an even wider door for the use of parasites (as an insecticide). As you may see, I am radically indifferent to the voice of the environmentalist. Since their inception, I believe more harm has been spread than overall good. (I apologize if I offend anyone, as I know the scope of this forum is not to discuss political ideologies, but based upon the data which I have accrued over a lifetime devoted to the study of human parasitology, it is not until recent laws have been enacted to which I have noticed a morbid change to the overall health of the human race when speaking of humans in relation to parasitical insects, and the cohabitation in which both species share.) j2d363 was eventually viewed as such a positive for the anti-insecticide factional voice, that the bastardization of this once harmless member of the drosiphilia sub genus has now been mutated into a nematode for our cotton industry. To speak as blunt as possible, what many of you are now experiencing is what is commonly known as Morgellons.
Thus the reason why I was asked to resign from my former position as a sub contracted individual for the Center for Disease Control is because of my acceptance to the phenomenon known as Morgellon's Disease. The once harmless 'fruit fly' has one genetically linear branch that is responsible for all the chaos witnessed everywhere.
Let me ask you, the reader, a few things: 1. Ocassionally, or often, do you see streaks of light that you believe is a fast moving insect headed in your direction? 2. Have you been diagnosed recently with asthma (or you are experiencig difficulties breathing)(or your upper adomen (lungs) area seems tight since you have noticed this 'insect' inside your dwelling)? 3. If you really take a hard look into your carpet, do you see dust and/or dirt? Does the dirt look like pepper flakes? 4. When dusting, do you notice that your areas seem to contain more dust than usual?
If you answered 'yes' to 3 of these 4 questions I have asked you, the likelihood that you have Morgellon's is approximately 84%. The only problem is that Morgellons doesn't really start to take noticeable effects to your overall health until a period of several years has elapsed.
Let me clarify a little more. Morgellons is a nematodic ancestor of the fruit fly designed to eliminate any surviving insects in the crop fields (from the Middle Eastern region). Nowadays, the black 'specks' you may on occasion observe are the shell containing the parasitic nematode (worm) designed to eliminate the insects harmful to the cotton industry. With the genetic modification that all races of j2d363 (if I may loosely call these creatures that) exhibit, the successful elimination of these parasitic nematodes is nearly impossible. Once one nematode successfully uses your body as a host, a signal similar to a pheronome has been made upon your torso (and all appendages connected thereof). For the rest of your life, you will be 'marked' as a host to invading parasites.
These nematodic organisms have really made an impression upon life as we know it. Due to the fact that these parasites have been built to survive a host of events that would normally terminate most other insects, they have evolved the anomalies which some have called 'alien'. What I speak of is the fibers that you will soon have in a few years if you answered 'yes' to 3 of the 4 questions I asked above. These fibrous pieces of matter are bacterial and fungal, floral and non-cellular. The white flashes of light you witness that 'shoot' toward you are the female nematode's 'poisonous arrows' (deposited bacteria designed to either stun or eliminate an insect).
Unfortunately, I must depart once again. For now, what you must do is the following: slowly reduce the amount of glucose (sugar) you consume, and take steps to boost your immune system. It is the immune system that is being attacked when the nematode remains 'dormant'. I will continue this post when time allows me to do so.

Thanks for posting this MeganM.......I would like to point out that I had a noticeably overwhelming craving for SUGAR during my last breakout on my face. This was after breaking some ribs in a Jiu Jitsu tournament on 8/20/2011. My immune system was compromised, healing was very very slow....i caught a cold for my birthday (apx 1 month after the tournament) ....and then pow! my face broke out....BAD! Then I started losing my mind looking at specs and dust and realized I was excreting lint from my body. Fruit flys are near me more noticeable than ever before....not tons, but i have seen quite a few during this last breakout...in my personal bathroom, and in my bedroom....not in the kitchen by the banannas......Hmmmmmm Sugar must feed this disease!

[Janice]

I guess I have questions why this guy is not a whistle blower. Why does he post on line as apposed to getting attention through channels that would garner more attention and publicity. He has morgelons too!
He has a CDC back ground, some one with juice will listen to him.
So you can't believe every thing you read fellow sufferers.

[tcmgpt13]

Sorry, I do not think the person who is quoted in this thread is on the up and up. For one thing the writing drifts all over the place and there has been little to no attempt made to add paragraphs to the post. The person who wrote it makes a lot of grammatical and spelling errors. Words are sometimes incorrectly used.

A claim is made by the writer that the two names of some of the parasites are not known to him/her because s/he does not have access to the paperwork. Quote from the post: [which I do not at the moment have the paperwork which gives me their proper names]. Very convenient.

In another sentence the mystery poster says: quote [This 'super bug', as it was called in Jordanian]. The language spoken in Jordan is standard Arabic, not some fabricated language called Jordanian.

This poster seems to feel the need to make him/herself feel important by claiming to have put the post into layman's terms. Yet none of the assertions made in this post have been backed up with any scientific or verifiable facts whatsoever. It sounds as if many of the descriptions of symptoms experienced and bugs seen were cobbled together from shared information various folks have posted about Morgellons all over the internet.

I think Morgellons has become the source material for many who love to tell tall tales and also assign to themselves a sense of self importance. It's a shame as IMO such posts make us sound more than a little strange...

[MeaganM]

I agree that it is a little to good to be true but what gets me is that he/she talks about Emergency 2 Infectious disease jump suits and has a convincing story about working on a suspected parasitic investigation team. For a fabricated story, someone did their research.

The spelling doesn't bother me because most doctors can't spell. On the other hand, why wouldn't this person come out and expose this unless he/she has been threatened or he/she doesn't want to be known as the DOP scientist? Would I come out and expose a possible government cover up the size of Mt. Rushmore and ruin my reputation and put my family in danger?... not sure.

It may or may not be for real but it sure is interesting! I have no doubt that eventually an important doctor or scientist will eventually get M since they are not immortal and when this happens, it will be interesting to see how they handle it.

[tcmgpt13]

Didn't Dr. Harvey already get the title of being the DOP doctor in that last Washington post article where he was quoted discussing mutant nematodes? According to what Kilani of Clongen labs said in that same article some scientists (including him) disagreed with what Harvey was claiming to see as far as parasitic involvement and Morgellons. Kilani quote:

['Some fellow Morgellons researchers -- many of whom were scheduled to meet at the University of Texas in San Antonio this month -- say Harvey's theory goes too far and that the fibers they've examined are in no way associated with any living organism.

'I have a lot of respect for him,' Kilani said, but his theory is really too far-fetched.' ]

Anyway, I believe the person quoted in your posts is just making it all up as he goes along. I sincerely doubt that this person is a doctor, MD, DO, or Phd.

What Harvey had to say about Morgellons and nematodes in the Post article is IMO information to become truly excited about as surely others were studying this with him and saw this too? The question is who were the folks who might have seen what Harvey saw and why have they not spoken out as yet? Kilani's claim (in the above quote) that Harvey was looking at inanimate fibers is quite interesting too. Why were other scientists so ready to dismiss what Harvey said he saw without any further study? Those are questions I would love to see answered. I am not holding my breath for replies to that however. The Post article discussion of Harvey and what he said about possible nematode involvement:

[William Harvey, 70, who serves as chairman of the MRF board, has taken those theories one step farther. He says he became interested in Morgellons research after successfully battling chronic fatigue syndrome and made it his mission to find cures for such unexplained illnesses.

He wouldn't be specific, explaining that he first wants the results of his research to appear in a top-notch, peer-reviewed journal such as the Lancet. "This may be the story of the century," he says. A semi-retired doctor in Colorado Springs who spent most of his career working in space medicine for the Johnson Space Center, Harvey says he may have found not only why Morgellons patients would both scratch and act strange, but also what could be the "genesis of probably most chronic human illnesses," such as autism, obesity, chronic fatigue and bipolar disorder.

It all boils down to this: mutant worms.

Harvey hypothesizes that a type of nematode, a wormlike parasite that lives in the soil as well as in the guts or lungs of about half the animals on the planet, mutated somewhere in the 1970s in Southeast Asia and jumped from animals to humans. The parasite is easily spread through the fecal-oral route if someone, for example, is out working in the garden, fails to wash his or her hands thoroughly and then eats an orange. Or it gets into the lungs by inhaling sputum or by kissing. The worm then takes up residence in the colon, Harvey theorizes, and the body's immune system holds it in check.

But when the immune system falters, the worms swarm in the body. That's what happens, Harvey hypothesizes, after a human is infected with a strain of bacteria first reported in 1986, Chlamydophila pneumonia. These bacteria like to live in immune cells, Harvey says, and they feast on those cells' energy. With the host's immune system compromised, the mutant nematodes begin reproducing exponentially, Harvey suspects. They burrow a hole in the wall of the colon, then usually travel at night through the bloodstream or the lymphatic system or crawl in hordes between the layers of the skin, like other species of nematodes are known to do, to the parts of the body with the most blood flow: the face, head and nose. There, a cranial nerve leads right into the brain. A pileup of worms could jam blood and oxygen flow to the brain, Harvey says. "That may explain the psychological symptoms," including the hallucinations, he says.

It may explain why Pam Winkler took herself to the emergency room recently. She said that a huge bump had appeared on the side of her skull in the middle of the night. By morning, she said, the bump was gone, but she could feel crawling all over her face. She wasn't making it up, she swore. And she put her stepsister, with whom she's been living since she got out of the state hospital, on the phone. "I can see them. They're moving down from her head to her eye," said Karen DeWeese. "They're about one and a half inches long and a half-inch wide. They look like bubbles under the skin." The ER doctor later found nothing.

The fibers, according to Harvey's theory, are really the hard shells, which he calls cuticles, that these worms shed at five stages as they grow from egg to larvae to adult. The red fibers are the males, he says. Blue fibers are female. 'Using a 2,000-power microscope, you can see inside them,' he says. 'They look like little stovepipes to me. I can tell the blue ones are female because there's a kink in the middle for the sexual organs and some kind of pouch. And we have pictures of them laying thousands of eggs.'

'If you write this theory, it's probably going to sound like someone's come from the mental institution,' Harvey says. 'But the fact is that this is a real disease, and it appears to be growing.']

[MeaganM]

By no means am I saying that this is a real doctor posting this but the possibility is there. Harvey wrote this article in 2008. Why was his research never published and like you said, why haven't any of his assistants published it by now? Dr. Wymore has also hit a road block and has not come up with any new info. The MRF has not posted anything for years.

Something, someone, or somehow, this information is being suppressed. Individuals like ourselves are discovering more than the scientist who are supposed to be on our side and have the more advanced equipment. The only ones you hear from nowadays are the handful of doctors who are trying to make a buck and they cannot tell us what it is, only their treatment suggestions.

Personally, if I were a scientist who actually had a conscience and I not only experienced this crap myself but knew what was causing it, I would not be publicizing it... I would try to help as many people as I could without notice. Even Dr. Harvey had his observations and never told us how to treat it because he wanted to "publish" his findings and become famous. Meanwhile, he dies (RIP) and we are stuck suffering and clueless.

Anyone who has ever come close to the truth is either dead or very, very quiet. Anonymity sounds logical to me. You have to wonder if these scientist knew how much we were suffering, would they have kept it quiet so long just to make a buck or become famous? I have a hard time believing that someone does not know exactly what this is. It has been years and with the right equipment, it should not be that difficult to figure it out. Even I, with my $120 microscope, can tell that the hairs are not human hairs.

IMHO, I believe that this disease is so big, involving something the government screwed up on, that scientist publishing their findings is NOT going to be how this unfolds. It may very well be a CDC worker who has contracted it and spills it to the world without recognition.

[Pollyringworm]

I have zero background information on him. All i know is his name is michael Ridely, MD. PHd. I have searched and cant validate his credentials. But, he sounds intelligent and he is a sufferer.

I just want to add that i still think the insect phase is secondary to the original organism that i seriously believe is fungal. The lesions, the lint, the hair issues that respond to antifungals...

What do you guys think?

[jeanlong]

Sure seems a lot of ideas about the origins of M have to do with manmade chemicals, genetic modification and other science stuff that people instinctively are afraid of. This might turn out to be true. M might involve some man made chemical mutagen and/or xenobiotic or genetically modified organism. It might also be a totally natural parasite/pathogen that has not yet been identified. Truth is that's unknown so far.

Wanted to point out that in an old acupuncture text, I did find a reference to a "hairy furuncle illness" which sure appears to be of totally natural origins. The text I am referring to was originally written in about the 1930s and was the first documentation of a system of acupuncture that was handed down orally in a family for over 20 generations. The implication is this is an old illness that arises when specific environmental factors allow it (pathogen/parasite/whatever) to thrive.

I am not particularly quiet and have written a paper about this for other acupuncturists.just not a lot of primary care provider acupuncturists have seen M patients. None of the ones I know have treated M patients.

not having a good time here - arm is swollen and skin is inflamed, with days of weird repeated surges of severe itching followed by M objects emerging. I have recently seen shiny polygons, blobby gunky stuff, colorful filaments that feel wiry, and am totally sleep deprived. I am still taking TCM herbs and hate to think how much worse I'd feel without these.
