pic taken thru lid again as i have it taped shut. it is the same mold as the 1st dish. there is no other growth that i can see. so with or without the flakes..........the same. i have to work again today, so i'll get it ready to send tomorrow morning and ship it off to the identifying lab. it will be 48 hours at noon today. this is what my body producesi'm looking for another kit for sputum. why, oh why, did we not do this years ago? i'm unable to identify this.

Thank you, Ruth. I could just wail if it would do any good, so instead of wailing I have my Mad Hat on as usual.
Try Wal-Mart and Target. I found a website last night that indicates Wal-Mart is stocking the Pro-Lab kits.
Amazon.com has them too and promises fast shipping.
And the beat goes on. And the Band Played on.

Ruth, I placed yours (black and white specimens) overlapping the article's specimens (the ones that are stained red) to really try and get a good look at this. Gosh...I sound awful if I say, (imho) they don't look the same to me. What I'm really concentrating on is: The centers of the "circular" things, look hollow in your specimens. Whereas the "circular" things in the articles (red ones) look more densly concentrated, (here's why): They've picked up more coloring with the stain. See how the "article" one is "deeper red/pink" in the centers? That "tells me" that it's because they're more absorbant or porous in their center material/makeup...and yours looks to be 'empty, hollow like'. I'm sure not ANY expert on this...just really eyeballing this the best I can so if many opinions are brought forth of what we all see, then that might help pin point it. Please know, I'm trying to help. Hugs! (ps, can you add punch cool aid on this or red food coloring diluted with water to see if your centers will take more color too?) Or are your "centers" the circular round things hollow in the centers more like a donut would be? Thank you VERY much Ruth.

toni, i'll go pull out the dish and see under the scope if the spores still have the centers. be right back. (i decided not to work today) the reason it looked the same is the way the branching is and they way they grow off the branch. the color is now changing to grayish. it is so dense, i can hardly take pics the hollow look under the scope looks like fluid in the circles.

Ruth, yes, I see what you mean about how it forms those circular things (spores) and how the branching looks the same too. Gosh, it could be for all I know. *(the same) but.... I (don't mean to be weird or picky) just that those "denser" looking centers caught my eye ball when I was looking at them (the colored pink/red ones). And yours "imho" looked more like "donuts" with the hollow holes in the centers. But...if yours will stain "darker in the centers"...maybe there is some gelatinous stuff inside your "centers" that will stain darker than the outsides like the ones that are pictured red. Can you "as you're scoping"....see if you can use your other hand and will a needle tip slip though the center? Do you know what I mean? Like "can you pick up a round 'spore' like your lifting up a loop of thread like? Or are they "center filled"? Sorry I'm asking so much. You really got some great pictures there and they're making me really curious and wonder all these things. Sure don't mean to bombard you with too much. I sure appreciate all your efforts here with this Ruth.

it didn't work.........the spores released when i put the dye on the area. maybe they'll grow back? i took a piece out and rinsed it. it did pick up the dye. it looks like a piece of red felt now. the part i am not getting about the dicty is it grows from stalks. this grows up and down the hyphae like a cherry with a stem attached. does the dicty grow that way? would the stem be the stalk? it sure looks like the stuff jeany posted the link to. plus with the info from morgellonsexposed.................. hahahaha toni.........i just saw you asked if i could see if those circles are hollow. i absolutely do not have the touch............i've tried. you missed your calling...........as a surgeon. i'll see if i can find my thin beading needle and see if i can even touch one, maybe it'll break open?

heheheh
I wish I had some like yours (kind of) you know what I mean, so that I could see if they're hollow inside the circles.
Maybe mine will grow those too. I don't know, but we'll see.
I figure at the rate mine has taken off in growing...tomorrow morning it may be all flowing out of it's dish.
But if I see any of those spores that look like "donuts" sort of, I'll sure try to see by checking them out too.
Thanks Ruth.

We need a Mycologist. Maybe we can come up with one willing to take a look.
You girls just blow me away with your expertise. I never wanted to buy a Microscope, not even an Intel Q-5. I just wanted (still want!) someone to figure it out.

Ruth, I've looked at half (to pg 25) so far, and will definately look at the rest shortly. OMG. You've sure got it ALL. GREAT pictures Ruth.
I mean from things that look like fungi/mold growing to insects developing. Unreal this all is coming from you, and us. Unreal.
( I sure don't know, but could the insects have been attracted to the mold or fungi) and then got caught in it, and proceeded to develop)?
The "octopus" looking things, imho look like "stellate trichomes".
Those are "plant hairs". They grow and appear to look like little spiders, but they're hairs of plant leaves.
I saw so many of those in the beginning of my Morgs onset too. I thought what the H are these? I'm still wondering what they're doing 'in the mix' too.
Thank you for sharing all these too. Excellent pictures.

Hi Toni, YES! the stellate trichomes! I posted info about this a few days ago by comparing it to Bannanny's specimens...and I think they do look similar.
Trichomes are used in Pesticides such as Paraquat for adhesive purposes..(let's the stuff STICK to the plant leaves) AND it also contains the Baculovirus!

The Trichome appearing "objects" have shown up many times over the years. I have an image of one scraped from my skin that looks like an Aloe Vera plant.
There's at least one at K.V.'s website called "Everhopeful's Delusions of Parasites-Science," the "Lyme Photos," site and Jan Smith's site too, as I recall.
Tardigrades and Collembola love feeding on Trichomes.
Ruth, your images are wonderful /awesome, and thank you. Thanks too for making them available for sharing without having to sign in.
I think it might be helpful if we added some links to one of the Mold threads. Get these websites and images collected into a location where viewing and comparing is easy.
Thanks to all.

i want everyone to know i took these samples from deep within lesions, to avoid any topical skin contaminants. it is sunday. i'll send the dish off to the lab in the morning. i cannot wait for a definative species to be named. i am overwhelmed with pictures. it looks like i can erase most of them as this culture pretty much says what i have been seeking for all these years. those inept labs that we have all paid to culture our stuff........................whoa. i am disgusted with their work. i have some of my paperwork with the lab names on it. i'd like to make them eat this culture (literally)

I feel the same as you, Ruth.
It's also another reminder to pick up all your lab work as well as copies of your medical records before they disappear.
I'm probably two years behind on picking up copies of lab work, so shame on me. I used to be so conscientious about it, then got careless.
