CASE DEFINITION - MORGELLONS DISEASE (DRAFT)
The
following case definition of Morgellons disease has been developed by physicians
on the medical advisory board of the Morgellons Research Foundation. This case
definition is a preliminary and evolving document, now updated for review by the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). This document will be refined
as further information becomes available and as members of the medical advisory
board deem necessary.
The Following Six Signs or Symptoms Are The Basis of Morgellons
Disease
1.Skin
lesions, both spontaneously appearing and self-generated, with
intense itching. The former may initially appear as "urticarial-like", or as
"pimple-like" with or without a white center. The latter appear as linear or
"picking" excoriations. Even when not self-generated, lesions often progress to
open wounds that heal abnormally and usually incompletely. (e.g., heal very
slowly with discolored epidermis or seal over with a thick gelatinous outer
layer.)
2.Crawling
sensations, both within and on the skin surface. Often
conceptualized by the patient as "bugs moving, stinging or biting"
intermittently. Besides the general dermis, may also involve the scalp, nares,
ear canal, and body hair or hair follicles. The sensations are at times related
to the presence of easily seen insects, arthropods, and other human and
non-human associated parasites that require serious attention from the observing
clinician.
3.Fatiguesignificant enough to interfere with
the activities for daily living.
4.Cognitive
difficulties, including measurable short term memory and attention
deficit, as well as difficulty processing thoughts correctly. Described by
patients as "brain fog".
5.Behavioral
effectsare common in
many patients. Many have been or will be diagnosed as Attention Deficit
Disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, or
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. A minority do not show this pattern. Almost all,
if previously seen by well-read physicians without prolonged observation, will
have been labeled as "Delusional Parasitosis". Temporal relationship to skin
lesion onset is not known.
6."Fibers"
are reported in and on skin lesions. They are generally described by patients as
white, but clinicians also report seeing blue, green, red, and black fibers,
that fluoresce when viewed under ultraviolet light (Wood's lamp). Objects
described as "granules", similar in size and shape to sand grains, can
occasionally be removed from either broken or intact skin by physicians, but are
commonly reported by patients. Patients report seeing black "specks" or "dots"
on or in their skin, as well as unusual 1-3 mm "fuzzballs" both in their lesions
and on (or falling from) intact skin.
OTHER
COMMONLY REPORTED SYMPTOMS AND SIGNS
1.Change
in visual acuity.
2.Numerous
neurological findings. A variety of neurological symptoms have been
reported. Some patients have been diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis,
Multiple Sclerosis, and other well-known and recognized disorders, while others
display significant symptoms not falling into any well-defined neurological
category.
3.Gastrointestinal
symptoms, which may include dyspepsia, gastroesophageal reflux,
and/or changes in bowel habits often similar to Irritable Bowel
Syndrome.
4.Neuropsychiatric
symptoms and signs, ranging from mood or personality changes to
diagnosed disorders including Attention Deficit Disorder, Bipolar Disorder,
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and occasionally frank psychosis. Temporal
relationship to skin lesion onset is not known
5.Acute
changes in skin texture and pigment. The skin is variously
thickened and thinned, with an irregular texture and irregular hyperpigmentation
pattern. The changes resemble age associated sun-exposure skin damage, but
typically appear acutely
6.Skin
examinationoften
reveals excoriated and/or crusted lesions which, on examination with lighted
magnification, are seen to have inclusions of variously colored (white, blue,
black, or red) fibers. Skin examination may also reveal multiple hyper-pigmented
macules, and an increase of what appears to be villous hair on arms and
face.
7.Arthralgiasare reported by many
patients.
8.Associated
diagnoseswhich have
been commonly reported in this patient population include Borreliosis (better
known as Lyme Disease), Fibromyalgia, and Chronic Fatigue
Syndrome.
OTHER
COMMONLY REPORTED OBSERVATIONS
1. Most
patients will have sought care from multiple medical care providers. A large
number will have been diagnosed with Delusional Parasitosis likely because of
the juxtaposition of unexplained skin lesions and sensations and psychiatric
overlay. Unfortunately, almost none will have received an appropriate diagnostic
physical examination (particularly a microscopic or biopsy examination of
lesions), but will have been diagnosed by history alone with grossly incomplete
observation.
2. Most of
these patients feel abandoned by the traditional medical care system and have
sought alternative care providers or have self medicated, seriously compounding
an already difficult medical situation
LABORATORY
AND OTHER DIAGNOSTIC EVALUATION
To date,
there have been no formal laboratory or imaging studies done in this patient
group. There are some reasonably consistent clinical findings, however, that
need further examination, in controlled studies, to be corroborated or
refuted.To read more, please visit: http://www.thecehf.org/morgellons-disease-case-definition.html

-- Update October 30th 2010 -- A case study GMOD-Morgellons by ~ Caroline Carter
"I extracted a nano sized organism from a Aerosol Sprayed fibre that had been collected after heavy spraying in Nebraska.
I captured its growth with my dark field scope. The living fibre is now on its way to a friend who has better lab access.
I have tested 23 out of 35 adults and 3 out of 4 children positive for these same fibres. None of those tested showed any outward signs of morgellons. I now know these fibres respond to frequencies, electromagnetic ones. lets hope none of our friendly governments decide to let loose a frequency that awakes these horrors"
~ Caroline Carter ~
-- Update October 18th 2010 --
Caroline Carter:
"COINCIDENCE?????
US Patent - 4362271
- December 7, 1982 - Procedure for the artificial modification of atmospheric precipitation as well as compounds with a dimethyl sulfoxide base for use in carrying out said procedure.
WHY- modify dew with Dimethly Sulfoxide???
Dimethly Sulfoxide is a compound used to carry any substance you like straight through the skin and into our cells. A fantastic compound when used correctly in medicine but not very nice to have on ones skin unknowingly. Whatever follows DMSO will enter your cells.
First fibre victim reported 1984."
-- Update 1st Week of September 2010 --
"Last week very light rain fell out of a clear blue Cyprus sky. I placed a few droplets under my scope. The droplets all contained a copper colour nucleus of some sort.
I captured on camera morgellons fibres leaving some of these drops."
"To call this horrific fiber disease Morgellons is ridiculous. Those corporations behind this bodily invasion, such as Monsanto must be laughing their heads off. Morgellons is a nothing word. This disease should be labeled something a GMOD (genetically modified organism disease). By referring to this as a GMOD those guilty of allowing this genetic modification of our food will be forced to take notice and hopefully action."
~ Caroline Carter ~
"Following an outbreak of morgellons that nearly killed me I have been working with skin which I kept while ill. I have now grown a morgellons fibre, this is amazing advanced technology and can only have been created by the military or more likely Mossad, namely Moshe Joseph.. The BBC last week said some American scientist had invented artificial life. I believe this is artificial life, it is out there and just loves oxygen.
This clip shows the birth of a morgellons fibre. This is a piece of my skin saved since mid March on a sterile slide. Please go to flickr and see morgellons.cyprus and see just how bad my outbreak was. I am a CAM practitioner, I have just started back to work. I have found a way to test people for this fibre disease, 14 out of 18 adults have tested positive for fibres, at the same time 3 out of 4 children tested positive. I gave a whole referenced file to various sources whom I thought I should inform of my discoveries. I have now been contacted by someone I do not know and asked to keep my info quiet for a bit (I will not say whom this person claims to be) On reflection I realised I cannot do this, secrecy has not been good for humanity uptil now and believe me humanity is seriously in trouble with this one.
I am putting this important film clip out in the hopes that someone working on morgellons will pick it up. The 30 minute RAW file is available to anyone who wants it. One can live in fear or one can just say NO. I am saying NO to keeping secrets. Whatever to be will be but once out there this information is available to all. Through other work I can tell you Morgellons can be disabled enough with an oxygen oversdose to allow the immune system to remove it. I did it and am now fibre if not bacterial stage free. I will make a film of my outbreak and recovery tomorrow. It is upto scientists to take it from here.
I believe I originally got this GMOD (GENETICALLY MODIFIED ORGANISM DISEASE aka Morgellons from chemtrail goo which was dropped over my area in 2007.
"To call this horrific fiber disease Morgellons is ridiculous. Those corporations behind this bodily invasion, such as Monsanto must be laughing their heads off. Morgellons is a nothing word. This disease should be labeled something a GMOD (genetically modified organism disease). By referring to this as a GMOD those guilty of allowing this genetic modification of our food will be forced to take notice and hopefully

PRANIC HEALING “Regresses Morgellon's symptoms. It has worked twice for me now. It does not cure Morgellon's but for me it rapidly healed open wounds and stopped progression of further blisters.”
"Pranic Healing® is a highly evolved and tested system of energy medicine developed by GrandMaster Choa Kok Sui that utilizes prana to balance, harmonize and transform the body's energy processes. Prana is a Sanskrit word that means life-force. This invisible bio-energy or vital energy keeps the body alive and maintains a state of good health. In acupuncture, the Chinese refer to this subtle energy as Chi. It is also called Ruach or the Breath of Life in Hebrew."

Morgellons In Aerosol Spraying PROVEN
Strange Fungus removed with MMS - Live blood one
hour after Ozone treatment
In 2008, the center for Disease & Control
Prevention began a study on a very controversial
condition known as Morgellon’s Disease. Thanks to
Caroline Carter Freeworld, our website now refers to
it as GMOD (genetically modified organism disease).
It is believed to be caused by parasites that which
patients suffer from topical burn-like wounds and
terrifying scratchy crawling burning under the skin.
. These “parasites” worms have actually been
studied under the microscope, and pulled from the
patients bodies. Patients are told that they need to
seek Psychiatric help, for “imagining” they have
something growing under the skin when in reality
doctors have observed filaments” or fibers which
emerge from the skin, otherwise known as fiber
optics. (Horrifying!)
Various clinicians have seen, and occasionally
identified, certain common dermato-pathogens OR
organisms not found on humans but on animals or on
inert material. GMOD has also been suggested to be
some type of bio-terrorism caused by genetically
modifying foods such as the company MONSANTO with
there genetically Modified Seeds.
All in all, this disease seems to be very hushed
amongst the scientific and clinical communities.
There is an ever growing concern for the GMOD
outbreak, with 14,000 or more cases since 2002, why
hasn’t science focused on this? Why are we
creating a synthetic world around us, not knowing
what results could occur? Are we the public merely
guinea pigs in a universal experiment, or has the
world simply become overpopulated and we are being
eliminated? Our pages set out to discover this every
day.
So please invest a little of your time and read what
we have researched.
Please contact us if you have any concerns or think
that you may have symptoms of Morgellon's Disease,
otherwise known as GMOD.

with her own experience of a most horrific disease.

As of two weeks ago I have full blown Morgellons. Many of the fibers coming out are similar to stuff in this video. The fibers coming out of my body do not burn with a blow torch neither do they dissolve or change at all after being left in 35% peroxide for 15 hours,
I AM IN AGONY. and am finding it hard to function. The top of my body is covered in massive painful sores as are the full length of my arms.
Sometime soon when I am more coherent I will put up a slide show of my body and the different things emerging from my body, I have a dark field microscope as I am a CAM Practitioner and a Clinical Nutritionist. The really scary thing is I am seeing similar blood conditions that seem to relate to Morgellons in more and more of my clients.
Photos now on http://www.flickr.com/photos/morgellons/
I am now over this attack but still feel worn out. My body has recovered my spirit will take a bit more time.
GMOD (Morgellons) Case Study (In the words of Caroline Carter in
Cyprus)
I do not know why I
decided to follow the research; l just felt that this horrific
disease was going to prove to be a much bigger problem than anyone
was realizing. During August 2007 whilst still living in the UK, I
awoke one morning to see my garden covered in a very strange
web-like substance.
On further
investigation I realized that many of my neighbors also had this same
substance covering their hedgerows and gardens.
The web which
was much thicker than normal insect web was kind of
fluorescent and its structure resembled chicken wire .The way it was
attached to the foliage was also unusual; it was only attached to the
tips of the branches. If one took large nets and threw them over the
bushes and trees you would get the same pattern of attachment.
Within a day the
foliage that had this substance was on started dying.
As I had never seen
anything like this webby stuff before I took samples and
photographed them with a cheap USB microscope that belonged to my
daughter. While collecting the web-like substance I felt a bite or a
sting on my left upper arm. Despite it being quite a sharp nip there
was not any visible mark...
By the end of that
day my arm was really aggravating me as no matter what I did I could
not stop a persistent itch that had begun shortly after the
bite. This itch has never left me. I would get a month or
so relief when I hoped it had gone but it always returned. I finally
found out that putting ice packs on my arm would calm it enough to
allow me to get some sleep.
In January 08 I
left the UK and moved to Cyprus where I live now. During July
2009 I was diagnosed as having intestinal fungal overgrowth and a B12
deficiency. I decided against any pharmaceutical medicines and
treated myself with ozone insufflations, virgin coconut oil and a
garlic product called Alli-C. To allow me to follow the progress of
the Candida, I purchased a dark-field microscope which I incorporated
into my clinic by offering live blood analysis.
A dark-field scope
allows you to see fungus, bacteria and many other conditions
in the blood at cellular level. Having worked with a dark-field
scope in the UK I was fully familiar with its operation and
usefulness in diagnosing and following up various health problems .By
November 2009 the fungal infection was clearing but I could see an
unidentifiable mycoplasma attacking my red blood cells.
A week or so after I
noticed this condition, Clifford Carnicom released his latest
research and photographs showing morgellons as it first appeared
in the blood.
My
blood condition looked and sounded very similar but I thought there
could be several other causes so dismissed any worries I may have
felt.
In February 2010 I took delivery of an ozone cabinet for my clinic. I
decided I would try and remove the mycoplasma with a seven day steam
ozone detoxification program using the cabinet. I have worked with
ozone for many years and held a deep belief that disease, bacteria
and virus cannot live in a highly oxygenated environment. I had
proven this many times when treating clients for bacterial and
viral infections.
I had used an ozone baths during 2005 and 2006 for detoxification
so was surprised at the immediate discomfort I felt on day
one. The heat was extremely uncomfortable, something I had not
encountered in prior use of these baths. I was also extremely itchy
all over my upper body. Despite the discomfort I decided I should
continue my planned course.
Following day three’s treatment I started to
break out in a rather severe rash.
The rash started on my upper left arm, exactly where I had received a
bite during 2007, then spread around my chest and down the right arm.
This happened over the course of the next few hours. I realized the
rash was not a typical detox rash but decided to carry-on with my
protocol as I now hoped to remove from my body whatever had been
causing the persistent aggravation in my arm, as well as the
mycoplasma. By day five I had to stop due to the severe
burning and itching I was feeling even when out of the bath.
Regardless of staying out of the bath, the rash carried on spreading.
The itching was painful and I had to take strong pain killers. I did
not consider that morgellons was the cause of my pain as many of the
lesions appearing over my body were scabbing over. All morgellons
research I had seen to-date stated that morgellons lesions do not
scab over or heal. It was approximately four days after my last bath
when Carnicoms next research papers were released. As I read
the paper I realized I could be in deep trouble.
Carnicom had cultured filaments from morgelloms victim’s
mouth debris. He had been subjecting the cultures to various
substances to see which substances would regress or inhibit growth.
He had discovered that any free radical producing substance like H202
or ozone rapidly enhanced the growth of the filaments. He was
advising the morgellons community to stay away form all free radical
treatments.
I knew I had to take a look at what was occurring with my skin, I
felt sick to my stomach as I pulled of a piece of dead skin and
placed it under the scope. Sure enough entangled through my skin
sample were bright red, blue and black fibres.
To make sure these were not just household fibres that had somehow
got into my skin I placed the fibres on a heat proof tile and burnt
them with a small blow torch, although they twisted and changed shape
a bit they did not turn to carbon as one would expect from normal
fibres. I did the burn twice without destroying the fibres. I took
another skin sample and found the very same fibres, this time I
placed the skin sample in a solution of H202. I left the sample in
soak for 12 hours before placing back under the scope. The fibres
had not lost their color.
The next couple of weeks were
agony, the rash intensified, pain was extreme.
My skin would form blisters that would burst then reform, it felt
like broken glass and lit cigarettes were attacking my skin from the
inside. Whenever a scab formed I placed it under the scope and
photographed the contents. I tried many things on the skin to no
avail. The only medication that helped was the opiates, both oral and
intravenous.
After about 20 or so days the rash started to diminish. I
still had severe itching and I felt very ill and weak. Every day I
removed bits of skin full of fibres. No matter what solution I placed
them in they did not lose their color. It was not until 10 days or so
later when I decided to try frequency healing that I really improved.
The change was immediate. On a Saturday I visited a therapist
who discovered that my left and right brain hemisphere had switched,
everything that should test positive ran negative and vice versa. I
was also emitting radiation from my thymus area for approximately two
meters. My thymus had felt permanently on fire and I could feel small
metal particles just under the skin.
My reading on the therapists Bicom computer reached twice as high as
anyone she ever tested before.
This will save me trying to explain how the treatment works. Despite
being pain free and not having skin problems I still find
concentrating very difficult.
After treatment the therapist gave me two small radiation absorbing
vials which I taped to my chest and changed every day. I still took
my pain killing injections that evening but the next day I woke up
feeling really good. I have not taken any medication since. I still
have one treatment weekly as many of my organs are still resonating
wrongly. Within a fortnight of starting resonance therapy I was able
to start seeing clients again. No one could believe the change in me,
including myself.
I seemed to have got better
as quickly as I got sick.
My very first client thought she had heavy metal poisoning and wanted
to use the ozone bath. She had bought a sample of metal which she had
passed via her urinary tract, when I put it under the scope I saw the
fibre as shown in pdf at B pic 6. I took a sample from her hairbrush
and the same fibres were curled around the bottom of the brush spike.
These fibres moved about when I placed them on a slide which I
had dampened with H202. I have time lapse pictures of the
movement taken over 12 hours. I found it hard to believe that my very
first client could have the same problem as I was getting over, but
there was no doubt about it.
To date fourteen out of eighteen adults tested have these fibres
as well as three out of four children. The rest I explained in my
first pdf correspondence.
I have recently managed to grow these fibres from one of the original
skin samples I had saved on a slide. I cannot say cultured as the
results were unexpected and immediate. A CD showing this growth was
included in the information pack I passed to our MP."
