Other than fibers and crawls, has anyone else experienced moderate to severe swelling especially in the feet and calve area?
One of the symptoms of CHAGAS is severe edema of lower extremities and sometimes hands.
Doctors tried to tell me it was angio edema yet EKG and labs said heart and kidneys were perfectly normal.
Near onset, my feet were swollen to the size of a football.
Anyone else?

Yes, my feet were so swollen that I could not wear any shoe on them. I was given a water pill but nothing was done to find the cause of the problem. I never retained water, have no heart problems. The swelling went down after a couple of days and has never recurred in seven years.

I have so much edema that I can barely walk, much to my dismay, I now use a walker and I cannot stand for more than a minute without extreme pain. Just got over three weeks of having one leg weep, which if I didn't continue to change the bounty paper towels would actually puddle. All this and I am still being told that this is mainly in my head?

Yes, edema to lower legs, mostly ankles and feet. Sometimes my ankles looks like my ankles want to go for a swim and are wearing an intertube. Remember those intertubes to float in the water? Here is a photo of my ankle at times.... Yes again, ring around the ankle, but thankfully no ring around the collar!

Well, I take that back................ maybe a ring around the collar is NOT a bad idea and I get to choose my color.
However; my patients may think I belong in a psych ward instead of their nurse!!

I wanted to go to the ER on several occasions, a friend of mine said that her doctor told her that swelling of the lower extremities is a part of menopause.
So I didn't go. I did get water pills from my MD (all this before morgellons)
THE ER part was definately after knowing I had morgellons cuz the swelling can really be frightening.

I wish I could feel unclogged. I constantly feel uncomfortable and clogged all thru my abdomen and guts and alot of abdominal pain. Gad, after all these years, I'm really tired of this, but I guess it's my lot in life. Geez. But before the major edema thing, a hole opened in the skin in my buttcrack (my boyfriend was happy to examine for me) and this light amber fluid drained and had blood in it and it drained for a couple of months. I was going from doc to doc and they had no clue and thought I might be mental. No sh*t.

Precisely why I hesitate to seek a medical Physician.
After Morgellons, I just don't have faith in them.
I do imagine when my feet get unbearable ........ know that (I had childbirth in 10 minutes, didn't know I was in labor)
Tolerating alot of pain in natural to me.
So I need to get really really and really bad physically before I go to any physician.

You all got a bingo here--- I started edema in Sept--Legs-ankles-feet were very large. I could not even get sox on--- swollen so bad that Icould not bend my knees. Scary, Yes, very. D saidit was congestive heart failure.... I am very short of breath and have been on oxygen for 3 months... When the swelling started going down I noticed small cavatations on the calves,Pea size to a grain of rice. Itch also. like something had vacated the premisis and moved out. I figured that it was Morg connected but try and tell any one else that. I am very glad that this thread came up...now I don't have to wonder any more... I think that its a clogged lymph system that is the problem--- the bug cloggedit up--- Oh yes. prior to the swelling my spleen was very painfull. Isn't our health care system wonderful? Watch for heart muscle involvement...heart not pumping enough blood to extremities or stomache. ORION***

Great topic, I think this is in the lymph too. It feels to me sometime like the skin near my anus is thinning. The white arc shapes that I have under my skin are now accumulating under my flesh. I can see them in spades. The increase makes you gain weight and area. It comes and goes. It itches like crazy. The white shapes eventually push outward and eventually will reach the top of sometimes break open. I have the lumpy phlegm with arc shapes too, brown colour in clear phleghm. This is soo terrible. It accumulates under the armpits in the lymph. The symptoms of this are very much like Karposis Sarcoma. Which is the type of cancer people with AIDS get.... Great topic. Hope to get more input..

Thanaks, Kamefromsky. I will pm you. The liquid ooze Orion and Godog spoke about descsribes mine exactly. I too believe that it is lymphatic fluid. Since the lymph system keeps our internal sewer system clean, if it is backed up it becomes a major hinderence to our better health. Anyone know how to help flush or clean it?

F. Solani, the Monsanto fungus, causes both oozing lesions and edema.
Help. Research fungals that cause lesions, fibers, edema etc.........
Fungals that cause problems for humans, pets, and homes.
Stachybotrus? F. Solani and its cousin F. Oxysporum?
Oxysporum. The DEA fungus.
