[carla]

I wonder if this is connected to morgellons.

Interesting article, Carla.

If only mine were seasonal. That's one item that stood out. The other was it appeared to be confined mostly to the ears.

*scratch scratch*

Definitely not true in my case. Grrrr.

At least this farmers' illness doesn't appear to be airborne.

Cheers (oh, I bet you're sick of hearing that one),

Oh yeah, this thought also occurred to me:

The author leads the article with a bit about Blue Tongue, as if the disease might have a vague connection to the new disorder just because it happens to be present in the same area. What kind of reporting is that? News people irk me sometimes. Post hoc ergo propter hoc correlation nonsense to drum up scared readers. Grrr.

*skuuurk*. Ok. I'm off the soap box now. Sorry.

OK I was not talking about the symptoms of morgellons.I meant a connection to all the strange things happening in the UK recently.Bees dying,Dolphins too,our lakes becoming toxic,a new disease in farming every week and morgellons spreading like wildfire.
I noticed they said there was only a few cases but dermatologists were worried. Maybe we should become farmers, Pat.

Carla, I've just written an email to the dermatologist who said 'new diseases are happening all the time and it's fascinating#..... Nina .. I asked if she had heard of morgellons and how many people in the Uk now had it. Why don't you send her an e#mail too. In fact, any Brits here, write to her and let her see how many people in the UK have it and she might do something..... Oh well, it's a try anyway..:<( H x

Quick and useless reply I'm afraid....

Dear Hilary,

Many thanks for your email. We don’t have anyone who specializes in that specific disorder I’m afraid, so the best bet would be to see your GP who may refer you to a Consultant Dermatologist.

Sorry I can’t be of more help.

Best wishes,

Nina








Come on Brits.... Bombard her with e=mails. LOL

It does all make me wonder what is going on, really. It is truly frightening to pick up the paper almost daily and read about yet another bizarre "disease."

Yes, Hilly, I hope you in UK can get some of the doctors and the media to see what is going on with Morgellons in UK. Rather hard I know when the few who do know about it often write it off as DOP.

best,

WHAT A CROCK, NINA!!! So, now dermatologists have to have one who SPECIALIZES in a specific disorder? What ever happened to, "come on in and we'll check it out"? "haven't heard of it yet, but it's possible I'm a blithering idiot who just barely passed medical school by sleeping with the professors, so I'll have my kid look it up on the internet!!!"

Where's that piss when you need it?

I know, I know, Carls sorry couldn't help myself. I do agree there is so much that seems to be happening in the UK (and US) I'm thinking it must be from when Bush and Blaire shook hands so much.
