Ive been meaning to post some things to ask for your opinion but held back cause they may not have a thing to do with "theuglies" --but I cant convince myself to just write it off so...here goes. When I first started getting really sick, I had some upper GI test done and had to drink the chalky kind of barium. From the first swallow it tasted or felt carbonated and by the 2nd bottle it downright burned. They didnt make me drink the last bottle but didnt think it was an allergic reaction b/c I had it in the past with no problems. It also took much longer to flush out of my system. It might be a coincidence but what do you think? Also--has anyone had the airbrush tanning spray done? I had the full body tan and other than being incredibly sleepy, I didnt feel any different(it looked good too-no streaks). Now the weird part--2 days later my mom and I went out for lunch. The details stuck with me cause I had white capris on and asked if I had panty-lines in the bright sun! I did a slow spin and mom said that I was line-free and said something cute and sweet about my behind! We walked about 8 ft and she stopped me and ask if a pen or something leaked from my purse cause thare was a huge black stain on my outer thigh. It covered the whole side of my upper thigh-about 5" across and 8" long and was completely dry. I emptied my purse but found nothing that could have caused it. We were stumped. I never felt so much as a twitch. Mom took them home to see if she could get it out. She called me the next morning and said she never heard of such a thing but she had them soaking in some water and bleach and after a few hours got them to put in machine. There was a hole where the stain had been. She said just that spot had dissolved. Do you think its possible that the spray tan clogged my pores and killed something or am I just reaching?

in the beginning years, i use to produce large areas of the tar like substance that would ooze out in patches. if i get it now, it will be cyclic and smaller amounts.
the stuff i have is not affected by any tanning, uv (mine likes the heat) chemical tan, absorbs it easily.

Me too Ruth. I believe the rock-hard tar or carbon-like things that came out of my back 5 years ago are the same things that, in the beginning, used to melt all over my clothes in the dryer. I've only seen them non-hard in that respect (immense heat), can't imagine it oozing already liquified....so sorry this happened to you Vivibelle. If you ever get it figured out, let us know.

My son had a big problem with the black oil goo. I don't know the first thing about science but my gut feeling has always been that It's blood, very old blood that our body can't absorb because the Morgellons have put something in it for their egg nest. Yep that sounds crazy, I know.
I was told a long time ago that bruses hurt because our own blood is toxic like to us. I used to rip the suckers out and when you rip into the nest (puddled blood) it bleeds like crazy and then stops as fast as it started (empty nest?) When I look at black specs under microscope, looks like hundreds of little eggs are in it. The black specks have been the only painful part of this to me, my lesions never hurt. I think the lesions set on top of the nest that, nest can be deep. But then if the black specks are egg pods then why would they move up to surface of skin and then move back in deeper when you go after them?
OK anyway what do I know.
The black oil is very sticky, smells, and must have something in it that eats away at fabric. I do get a tons of holes in new clothing, clorox can cause holes but I use ammonia in my laundry.
Morgellons makes me think in circles, round and round and round I go, never gettin anywhere. Love ya's

I have a picture of this dark dark goo running down my face, about 1 and a half tablespoons amount of it that came spewing out of one of my lesions when I pressed on my upper cheek!
It was as gluey as tree sap! I thought I'd NEVER get it off.
The only thing I've found that works well to remove it, is the either salicylic acid on a q-tip...and yesterday I had the same thing happen again...and I tried (baking soda patted on it, then I dipped my finger many times into a cup with vinegar, and rubbed right off!)
They HATE baking soda and apple cider vinegar! Use it too as a spray mixed with water to spritz yourself with...and pour some onto your head when you shampoo too.
But I'm doing the full body spritz now...and it's helping more than anything I've used to date!

This black stuff was totally dry. I guess I just wanted to think that the spray suffocated some of it. It made me wonder what would happen if I kept getting the tan.

Melanin? Anthrax? Coal? Carbon? What else is black? "Carbon blacks are manufactured under controlled conditions for commercial use primarily in the rubber, painting, and printing industries. In contrast, soots are unwanted byproducts from the combustion of carbon-based materials for the generation of energy or heat, or for the disposal of waste. Unfortunately the terms carbon black and soot often have been used interchangeably; however, carbon black is physically and chemically distinct from soot. Greater than 97% of carbon black consists of elemental carbon arranged as aciniform particulate. Depending on the type of soot, the relative amount of carbon ({lt} 60% of the total particle mass), the type of particulate carbon, and particle characteristics (size, shape, and heterogeneity) can vary considerably. For both carbon black and soot, other elements and chemical compounds are associated with the particulate carbon. Total inorganics (ash) represent{lt} 1% of the carbon black particle mass. Organic compounds can be extracted from particle surfaces (solvent extractable fraction (SOF)), and for carbon black, also are{lt} 1% of the particle mass. Soots have much greater percentages of ash, SOF, or both, than carbon black. There has been concern about the adsorbed organic compounds because of potential biologic activity. For carbon black, the SOF is strongly adherent to carbon surfaces and is not released by biological fluids. The types of organic compounds consist primarily of unsubstituted polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and are not as biologically potent as those compounds present in soot. Thus, carbon black is distinctly different from soot, and when discussing potential health effects, care must be taken to differentiate between the two types of carbon based particles." www.osti.gov/energycitations/product.biblio.jsp?osti_id=20172953The last listed there in keywords: ...."What are polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)? Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a group of over 100 different chemicals that are formed during the incomplete burning of coal, oil and gas, garbage, or other organic substances like tobacco or charbroiled meat. PAHs are usually found as a mixture containing two or more of these compounds, such as soot. Some PAHs are manufactured. These pure PAHs usually exist as colorless, white, or pale yellow-green solids. PAHs are found in coal tar, crude oil, creosote, and roofing tar, but a few are used in medicines or to make dyes, plastics, and pesticides.".... www.atsdr.cdc.gov/tfacts69.html#bookmark02hydrocarbon replacing carbon dioxide? mmmmmmmm Skytroll
