Well..this is another one of those (takes the cake kind of things) (Sid sent me this to post) for Jose and Kathy Jimenez (who many of us know). This THING apparently came out of one of Kathy's arm lesions. And it's twice as long, it just wouldn't all fit under the view of the microscope. Ever seen one of these before?

Holy Moly...what next? This is a new one to me too, but I notice that the "filament" appears to be a banded form that Ive seen in my own and many others scope pics. Maybe the blue "goo" is something growing on the filament. waldenflo

I cropped off the sides of the scope circle so that I could show a larger picture of this specimen. Yeah...this is a doozie, whatever it is. I can't even use my imagination on this one.

THIS IS OLD.....It was posted here long ago, and I happened onto it the other day and it reminded me of some of the images I've seen recently. Once again, it's OLD....and Kathy is totally cured and has been for some time now. Still, it is one of the most interesting images I've ever seen. Just want to make sure everyone understands it is NOT recent. What a pretty blue. reminds me of hand-blown glass in my favorite color...Cobalt. (ranks right up there with PINK)

I recognize it. I have seen it in my own samples. I have one of them pictured in my Natural link thread. I was going to post specifically on this particular entity as I have also seen it pulsate. From what I have been able to document on two occasions, those bulbs are not fixed within the structure.

Thanks, Frito. It was because of the similarity to your own image you posted that I dragged it out of a file folder. It's one for the books for sure.
I wonder if one of the Microbiologists at Natural Link would have any clue? Fascinating in a horrible sort of way.

These images are from the eye goo that I started another Natural Link petri sample with. When I started the sample, I took pictures immediately after placing them. So these are the original pictures. Now compare these to the subsequent pictures I took the following 24 hr period. Do you see the difference? These pictures are of the same structure and the same eye goo. Hint: Count the number of "bulbs" originally and compare to the next 24 hr period. There were four originally and in the next twenty four hour period, there were only three.And todays pictures at 300 mag. And you will notice, these are see through, although at 100 mag they appear blue. And also notice that within the larger bulb, there are smaller spheres!! (Looking at this in the preview, they are kinda hard to see.) And they are see though too!! And although when you look at the "stalk" it really does appear segmented, if you look close, you will notice that actually, its not. What looks like segments are actually smaller spheres within the stalk. I question nuclei, but I have seen these bulbs form, move up the stalk, and then decompress, and then repeat, on another sample in which I tried to video a smaller pulsating like fiber doing the same thing. All I have of this particular sample from my eye goo, is the differing pictures lending confirmation of what I saw trying to video the other structure. Also, I would like to note, that stalk goes through the entire eye goo sample. I thought about it being a small eyelash hair, but the spheres on the stalk make me doubt it. I am also finding this stalk in other samples in which I can definately rule out hair. I don't know if the two examples are the same thing on differing size scales, but I am on the look out for more examples hoping to shed more light on this.

I've been seeing alot of that same color blue lately... under my skin and it even appears in mid air sometimes. But what's really weird is when my hair is wet, just after I comb it out these oval shaped areas of blue appear. When I comb thru one it fans out and then comes right back together again... I can feel and see the things move (enough to move my hair up and down on my scalp) but just like everything else, I can't make them go away. I'm really glad to know Kathy's doing well... that just might give me some hope cuz I know she was in hell for a long time. Do you know what she took that turned it all around Sid?
hugs ~~ bannanny

Wait a minute you guys. In the past we have noticed "strands' in which seem to be multi layered. What if there is a membrane on the outside of this stalk? Say in the case of a feeding tube, then the surrounding environment or the food, in which the fungus is secreting enzymes to break down the environment.....what if that membrane would wax and wane as it is dispersed through the stalk and the membrane? Does this make sense? Hmmm....or maybe those enzymes are dispersed through the outer membrane, and the food within the inner stalk? Interesting.

Yikes Kelly, I don't think you are stupid from the posts I have read. Paying attention in school wouldn't of helped either. I would like to see that picture you have. So here is how you do it. Become a member of photobucket by establishing a free account. Once that is done you can start an album. You do that by the uploading feature in the middle of the screen. When you select upload it will post a window stated trusted site, are you sure you want to do this type of window, click yes. It will then load directly from your computer. On the left side of the screen, there will be files. Pick the file in which your photo that you want to upload is in. For example, My Photos. After clicking that, then it will upload all the photos in that file to photobucket. You can the select the photo or photos you want by clicking once. A check mark will appear, so you know it has been selected. Then click on the large blue upload button. After doing this, it will display the time remaining and the pictures remaining during upload. When the uploading process is complete, another screen will pop up with those photos you selcted and will give you two options. One to either save and return to the album, or the other to save and get links. The easier option especially when you have many photos, would be to select the save and get links option. This will then take you to another screen with those photos and will show each photo with four information bars underneath them. The direct link is the one in which you will double click to select it first and then right click to select copy. You then will go to your lymebusters post and in the posting menu, you will see a picture bar that looks like a photo. Specifically, it is the fourth one to the right on the bottom bar just above the smileys. After selecting this photo button, in your post will pop up two pairs of img bulletins. Right click directly between these and select paste. The link to the picture you uploaded onto photobucket and want to display here at lymebusters will be located directly between these. If you question whether you have done it right, you can then click on preview and your picture should be able to be seen within the text you are going to post. After preview, and you are happy with your post, then don't forget to click post reply, and walla, its now on the forum. With the direct links you are using from your pictures you have uploaded onto photobucket, remember in the future that if you delete any of those photos in which you have directly linked to lymebusters, then the image will no longer show at lymebusters. Hope this helps. Look forward to seeing your pics. Frito

Kelly, I think it's a combination of fear of failure trying to remember all the instructions. First thing you would have to do with any image is "SAVE" it to your computer. All my images are in My Pictures, which is apparently where everyone stores their images. Please don't be embarrassed about your lack of computer skills. I've been here since LB opened and never took the time to learn how to embed images or anything else. Learning how to do these things in on my To Do List.

Update.
Where orinally there were four "bulbs or spheres" on my specimen in a petri, then three, and now as of last night, only two. Interesting, and only brings more questions.

Yes! I'll tell you how to maybe make one of your normal fibers turn into that bulbous thing- Cut up fresh salsa- drop a blue fiber into the onion and garlic juice. They hate it. Especially the onion it seems. I haven't gotten this response from other than blue fibers. When it first happens, the drops on the outside are sort of a liquid. Then afterward they get more crystally and hard. -Does this point to onion and garlic having the ability to soften the outer membrane of these things?
