Rough night for the wife, no sleep at all , coughing bad, the stuff that comes out of her after a bath is worse and worse......

She needs to get on the right medication. Trust me it will get better. Seeing a lyme doctor is the right thing to do, hopefully they also have some experience with this disease.

My short version of this is that it is raining down from the atmosphere. It is bryozoan colonies a la red larvae, complete with its structure making calcium carbonate. The structures in the skin can be broken down with baking soda, the red larvae taken off the skin with sticky tape. Best cleanup for fabrics, like sheets is a big sticky roller tape. Best non perscription antibiotic internal help is Sovereign Silver, which will also aid the skin in reversing this. I think the indoor enviorment and our body gets too overwhelmed with this contaminate and every effort to reduce it helps tremendously. The calcium carbonate is like super glue saturating the skin, and appears clear, white,silver, copper or black depending on what light, or maturity it is seen in.

Nick.... poor you and your wife.. I know just what it's like and much worse at night.. I've had a lot of trouble with the cough as well but recently as well as a lot of other things I've been taking Zithromax (azithromycin) which has really helped the cough so much it's almost gone. I hope you get to see your lyme doc very soon and he/she is helpful with the Morg as well. Good luck... Hilly

...........mine is ALWAYS worse between 3am & 6am. itchies EVERYWHERE. misery.......bitin, stingin, crawlin. and glitters. after itchin & scratchin so much there are always teensy shiny particles all over and around me i had to change my tshirt around 5am this mornin because i was so uncomfortable. i think i have no chance for relief because 1) i have no tub, just a walk in shower and 2) i live in this 4 room infested apartment with 2 non believers who don't work. i just can't work AND clean my environment behind myself AND them. its like bangin my head against a brick wall over & over again. (and yes they do have it, they just refuse to either believe they do or refuse to admit they do, i'm not sure) i used to keep my dirty clothes in a big garbage bag sprayed with eco-vie til i could get to the laundrymat, but with other filthy clothes all around gettin washed once a month, what was the use? i just gave up.

Agree Nick it didn't seem too relevant to your initial post.

Believe Chester's post here loosely refers back to the brief mention of black specks in Nick's first post on this thread.

Anyway, to give you the traditional Chinese medicine view of why many folks with morgellons have trouble at night here is a brief overview. From 11pm-1pm the gallbladder predominates and from 1am-3am it is the liver. These are viewed as paired organs in tcm and many of us, I believe, may have problems in these areas before getting morgellons (the gall bladder is often too slow in some folks and stones tend to form) and the liver may become partially blocked, overheat or be too slow in function. All of these problems will make it hard to sleep if there is any dysfunction and/or imbalance in these organs. In fact this is a question in TCM diagnostics: do you wake up at any time of the night and then have trouble falling back to sleep. The other organ which is predominant at times of sleep is the lungs (3-5am). So when brenda'ella said her itching was worse from 3-6am it makes sense to me, as the lungs control the skin. She continued with the itching into 6am (5-7am large intestine time). Again lungs and large intestine are paired organs, so anything wrong with the skin may really show up at this time.

I believe these parasites are active at one time or another or even at the same time in these organs (and feel that part of their cycle is to be in the lungs, hence the coughing). This is why I try to keep cleansing these different organs with herbs. When I hear rumbling on the right side of my body near the liver/gall bladder I use some tcm herbs for gall bladder stones. I use it for a few days at bedtime (timing my herbs) until the rumbling leaves. Then I know I have moved that batch of critters out of the body through the stool mostly (I also use herbs for the colon at that time). I still need to get some bile salts as using biles salts after meals may help the gall bladder/liver function correctly (believe accudoc mentions this in a thread he started in July, he does not have many post so if interested in TCM you might want to look up this thread and review some of the comments he made there). He seems to feel he has about 90% improvement with what he has done with herbals and some other supplements. It is possible to improve using something other than Western medicine, though it is probably best to have some guidance there too, just as one would have guidance from a doctor.

best,

tcm
