And this is what popped out! What the h*ll is this??? The inside of this is filled with what appears to be a very thick gelatinous mixture... Attachments:

Here's a close-up of that protrusion with the bulbous protrusions... Attachments:

Here's part of the tail. Gee I wish I knew how to post more than one pix at a time....anyone to help? There are more strange things being coughed up lately....things I hadn't seen previously. Something is happening to me and it's not pleasant. If you have seen these before, please let me know what they appear to be? I'm just so tired of sitting and researching, I need to nap for awhile. This is taking its toll on me in a big way. Thank you folks for all your help as always..... Luvu, ctbarb Attachments:

Oh wow. Never saw any of those. Great pictures. Know what else? Under eyelids, monsters. Way under top lids, under a plastic like bio film. You won't even know it's there or have it effect seeing to much. It was stuck on all the way across under the lid , right along the edge also. Stuck harder than anything you can imagine. That keeps the eyes, eyebrows & hair to keep on having trouble. Need to get them to check the eyes really good.

I was able to acquire these images from my nose. This first one here looks very similar to what you posted. There is no hair in this sample. Notice the color of this thread. It is attatched to the next picture here, and also notice the branching. Where the branching occurs, what you are seeing is goo stuff. It all leads to this particle. Kinda reminds one of giardia? The 'sphere' looks like an eye, even though it isn't. The particle was too large on 300 mag to visualize completely within the field. This next photo is of the bottom of the particle, in which one will notice another fiber protrudes from it. This last pic is of the fiber protruding out of the base of this particle. Under microscopy, the fiber actually curls around towards me, the viewer.

Lawsy! Barb, I sure don't have a clue, but that's some of the strangest stuff I've ever seen.
Don't know which is "worse," the gelatinous pfrotrusions or the long necked bird wearing a straw hat! YIKES!

Makes me wonder if I have those seeds some where. Our pic techniques are different. Do you think this is similar to what you photogged? There was a time, a phase, several, last year in which I seemed to go through a lung migration phase. My son and I both were put on rifampin and isoniazid for about four months. We have not had a 'migration' since, but still continue to get these particles out of our sputum or our nose. Hmmmm, haven't photogged my spit yet. Frito

ctbarb, awesome photos. So, the gel crap comes from the red seeds. Well, this am I coughed up so much gel in one cough it covered the slide with the thick gel with the bubbles and specks and fibers. I cough this gel up every single morning. Yes, barb we have this gel inside our bodies. This is just awful, isn't it. Thanks for posting.
