I wanted to let everyone know that it's been more than a month since I had my last fit of morgellons symptoms.
Every itch, every numb feeling, every fiber, every little single last solitary monstrous nightmare symptom associated with this disease has left me. They are all gone.
How, you ask? How did I get the fibers to stop sprouting from beneath my pores, shooting through the skin to leave a visible speck of unidentifiable by doctors material that itched like hell but nobody believed was real?
How, you may be curious, did I manage to end the torment of feeling like fire ants were biting me all over my body, including my face, scalp, neck, torso, arms, hips, waist, back, thighs, knees, calved, privates, toes, and feet? Well I'd love to tell you but unfortunately, before I may have a chance to, I may get cut off at the legs by Hope or Jeff or any of the other die hard morgelloners on this board.
You see, the unfortunate thing that I have realized after being cured from this plague is that there are a large percentage of the morgellons patients who refuse to believe that this is NOT a "mystery unidentified parasite." They are so used to arguing with doctors from the getgo that they refuse to see the truth that lies before their very eyes, waiting to set them free if only they would agree to see.
Will you see? Will you be willing to consider my cure? Have you ever read the insulting website commercial that describes one person's suffering with the initial morgellons symptoms? You get your hopes up and then he asks for 39.95 for all his 'hard work' that he had to put into finding that morgelllons can be cured by strict dietary elimiation.
Yes, that's right, morgellons CAN be cured through diet. This is because morgellons/lyme disease/unidentified skin parasites is really the disease Candida. It is a form that is currently unknown to doctors and rarely studied.
Look. I have had this disease for more than 8 months. I know the pain you all are going through. That's why I felt so compelled to discuss my discovery with people who are suffering.
However, I was ridiculed, dismissed, and belittled by the seasoned vets of this board who felt it was preposterous that I could have cured "morgellons" simply by curing my "candida". I can promise you this much. If you go on a strict Candida diet, and do not take any antibiotic medication, then you will be cure of this monstrosity. I would love more than anything to post my daily logs and discuss how incredible this cure has been for me. I have done so much research that links Lyme disease to morgellons, and morgellons to Candida. It all stems from the same dysfunction. I would be overjoyed to share the uplifting and hopeful information here with anyone on this board who is not jaded by the disbelieving, unhopeful vets that come here to bicker.
I will never even consider charging a price for the cure I've come across. However, I feel that it's ridiculous for people to judge me and dismiss my information just because they are doubtful. How DARE YOU feel the right to take the health away from some one else? That's what you do! When you dismiss something that you yourself have not tried. Shame on you!
If anyone is interested in my logs and findings then please let me know on this board. I don't want to waste my time posting tons of relevant information or reseach I've done on people who cannot even consider the possibility that this all stems from Candida. If I have piqued your curiosity at all, please just google Morgellons and Candida together.
I no longer itch. I have no more crawling. The black specks are gone. My left leg used to prickle and get goosebumps whenever I would shave it (no longer so since I changed my diet). I don't wake up in the middle of the night in sweat anymore, itching rabidly and unable to sleep. I no longer have the little translucent "fibers" (specks) coming from my pores and exiting through my skinh causing me intense itching when they do. I do not have the constant fatigue that I once had. Since I learned to control my diet, MY DOGS no longer have the morgs symptoms.
As you can see, I am not trying to sell anyone anything. On the contrary. I want to GIVE you all your life back. My life was HELL when I thought I had some unidentified skin parasited living under my skin, that no doctor could identify, and I was told that I was crazy. I definitely DO NOT think it's better to live in those conditions! I hope and pray and beg Jesus that just one person will see the light and want to find the real answer. If there is anyone who has read this post and would like me to post the information relating to the cure I have found (which is not just an individual thing, it works for everyone) then I would love to share my research. No more judging, dismissing or uncallled for remarks please.

Please do post your information - I would read it with great interest.
I am on the Candida diet - and it has removed the itching. I didn't have a lot of the other symptoms mentioned.
Might there be a "herx" effect at first? I still have "things" happening in my scalp - but without the itching or crawling symptoms, it's 90% better.
I admit, I haven't been strict on the diet, but your post inspires me.

Well Jess---The proof is in the pudding LOL By their fruits they shall be known... I for one am VERY interested in your log and advise. There are a heck of a lot of sugar hollics out here and me being one. Sugar is harder to give up than cigaretts, Jess, we all need insperation to clogg on- so lay it on us . I would be greatful for your shareing your experiance. A lot of ppl don't give up smoking till they have 3 months to live--from what I gather there are a lot of Morgies out here in about the same boat--so lets get on with it.

Hi Jess, you have a very valid theory. I do know of a dr who treated 4 patients successfully . his finding was that the candida overgrowth . well before i go to far my understanding is that once candida over grows then it turns into a pathogenic fungus.....anyway the dr's theory was that the candida overgrowth wich turned into fungus attracted a nematode. the nematodes food source or food it's attracted to was fungus/candida. the dr addressed or approached the problem by addressing the candida. the dr's main specialty is blood work...so he has seen the nematodes. and he uses a microscope that is more powerfull than the ones typically used for dark field since it's his main specialty. the ones he saw had specific markers. ...... congratulations ! on your success......and of course i have no idea what you had or have.....it is sooo wonderful you've found relief. I think i read that the candida causes chemicals to be released and they make the brain/body crave the foods that feed it ? anyone here of this ?...just an awesome story...congrats... I also know of people that have tested positive for the stenotrophomonas malto-whatever...and lyme and have similar symptoms to the group of 4. they've never been to that doc though. it's obvious some get 1 or 2 or more and some get a few and some get only 1 thing to deal with. Please share the good info you've gathered.

Dear Jess,
Bless you for your persistance, my dear. Take comfort in that there is one person who is beginning to see the light, as you put it. I have been crying out to Jesus to heal me of this plague and I keep getting led to fungus and immune failure due to toxicity. I would love to hear of your diet. Please do share. Thank you, guest

Jess, I just picked up a pamphlet at the Natural food store and those candida look like these branching blooming filaments. Circle of life right on our skin. Bechamp's theory of mycozymias? Ah hah. It comes around again. www.euroamericanhealth.comskytroll

I too believe, theres a fungus among us that critters and crawlies are attracted too. I've been getting better results by trying to eliminate candida and keeping as much moisture away from my living space. (it also helped that I moved) Any additional information would be grately appreciated. I'm still not clear on what consists of a proper candida diet but I'm doing what I can by taking the rainbow light candida cleanse while eliminating sugar, eating less carbs, eating yogart and excercising. I'm also seriously considering becoming a vegetarian after having experinced some excellent meals in some local vegan restaurants lately.

I like the idea of becoming a vegetarian too. Prions are not really discussed very well. Yeast, bacteria, fungi, algae, mycozymian theory probably closest to what is happening.
fungus bugs, collembola, fleas, lice all feed on this
then worms come along and feed on bugs and bacteria
worms reproduce, bugs reproduce. We are the earth. We are the soil, now
I think the circle keeps going.
I think the fog is starting.

Jess - the Candida diet has helped me a lot.
If the doctors would have explored the Candida option, I would have had immediate relief of the itching etc. symptoms.
It was only by searching these websites that I found out about the Candida diet, cleaning and laundering with ammonia, elimination of mold sources - not only in the home, but from foods that might carry it (corn, etc.) - and the skin treatment of not slathering it with suffocating stuff, but letting it be dry and airy and get sunlight (things that kill mold or fungus or yeast)
The above link provided by Skytroll was interesting reading. I think where I have gone wrong with the Candida diet was replacing the sugary or carb foods I'm not eating with more meat. And, I still drink fresh-ground coffee with sweet flavored creamer - hardest to give up.
I have NO MORE itching, however I am still getting the strange "things" in my scalp.
The above link gives answers for that - in the second half, the first half is informative history.
Now, I will focus on less protein, and the ph balance of my body.
I encourage people to read the link above. It helped me to understand what is going on in my body.
Jess - please do post what you did - thank you!

I would love to hear about your recovery. My sister read the book "The Yeast Connection" and told me she believed yeast is associated with this Morgellons thing.
I am on Nystatin therapy because I did read the book.

There are a heck of a lot of sugar hollics out here and me being one. Sugar is harder to give up than cigaretts, Jess, we all need insperation to clogg on- so lay it on us . I would be greatful for your shareing your experiance. A lot of ppl don't give up smoking till they have 3 months to live--from what I gather there are a lot of Morgies out here in about the same boat--so lets get on with it. I hear you. It started at about age 8 for me with a diet of microwave pizzas, hot pockets, mini pizza bagels, ice cream, cake, cookies, candy (including LOTS of chocolate ) pop tarts, I can't believe it's only 99% sugar type cereals, and anything that had little or no nutritional value (like sodas and bags of chips or snacks). I wasn't interested in veggies (they didn't tase as good) and I didn"t learn to cook so I found it was a lot easier to survive off of gas station impulse buy grub. People have always made jokes about my poor eating habits but any attempt to change would end up in me giving in to the sweets very easily. Anyone else a bit like me?? ;D I really appreciate everyone's kind words as I believe that no matter what our differences, we are all interested in the same thing (I hope) of curing this ailment, whatever it really may be. I know that the reason there are so many faces and facets to this disease involves the underlying fungus that has turned pathogenic...we have a literal buffet of edible fungus that attracts nematodes, flies, all kinds of lil critters. I don't know a lot of things, but I know that while you have Candida, you are still going to be deteriorating from this condition. It is absolutely imperitive to get rid of the fungus that has infested your body and is even purged through your skin (for those of us that have the fibers/flakes, they are the infectious yeast candida tropicalis being purged thru our skin as either antibiotics exacerbate it, or a diet that includes sugar and yeast. Time and time again the fibers are identified as fungal-like filaments, large branch structures of the yeast candida). There are so many things that I want to tell you all. I think it will be best if I compile everything into a website and then put the link here. That way I can include photos and the research into the links I've done. Some of you will be so amazed. I'm personally astounded how this could really be "the thing" myself, but it is. I know this for a fact, and I have LOTS of things that I am going to prove it. I am hoping that my information can lead other people to relief as well, because I was completely miserable and did not look forward to each new day. I am very thankful for one thing though. When I first began to suffer at about 4 months after going through all the doctors and the disbelief, I returned again to Christ, and I will always be grateful that I had this disease because it wasn't until I was completely broken and humbled that I needed him. Now that I have a relationship with Him again that grows stronger every day, I cannot even express how fantastically happy I am, and the peace I know. Those of you who know Him understand what I mean...I am praying for every single one of you that is suffering. I believe it will be over for you soon because God doesn't want his children to suffer and this disease is curable! It's not a mystery skin parasite (although the fungus can certainly attract them.) Once you get rid of the fungus, the bugs will be gone too..if you adhere to it strictly and don't do anything that exacerbates candida (there are a lot of things that I used to do like use caffeine, drink alcohol, take antibiotics, eat sugar or yeast) then you can eventually cure yourself of all symptoms. I have read that some people with severe candida took months on the diet before they experienced relief, but I was feeling great after the 3rd day. I think this may have to do with the length of time the infection has been spreading, and how strictly you adhere to the Candida protocol. Thanks again everyone, God bless ya'll and I'll let you know as soon as I have all the info compiled. Jess

I thought I ate fairly well (everything in sight) I'm not a picky eater but with the everday rush of life, trying to keep up (caffiene, soda) left me many-a-times with little or no time to cook (fast-food), I didnt really have much of a sweet-tooth but love sweet breads and coffee (every morning). I'm sure it all added up in the end (195lbs), but I also believe somehow that I aquired this from my apartment, as I did find mold growing in the AC vents and we did witness a heavy rainy season on that old early 1960's complex, I don't even want to think about whats growing in them walls.
So my diets changed and I'm actually using my gym membership, plus theres hope of getting those abs I've always wanted (hopefully in this lifetime) Who knew diet made it that much easier? well, actually I did know diet played a big part, but hey banana bread and blueberry muffins rock!... lol.
Blessing in disquise? I'll let you know onces its GONE FOR GOOD!

1. Congrats on being Morgs Free. 2. I DO believe you can be CURED using the anti-candida diet 3. I think the ridicule you garnered was more from your IN-YOUR-FACE attitude you showed when others didn't agree with your diagnosis of candida as the cause. 4. I am most certain candida is NOT the cause but part of the problem with Morgs patients.
Here is MY (CHEM G) theory in a nutshell:
Will is correct and to expound upon that this is what I believe: Morgs is caused by a micro nematode developed by Monsanto to attack insect larvae and feed on fungi/yeast. It is used on corn and cotton crops and has been genetically altered (they can track it which is why it fluoresces under a black light). The nematode is very small in size and uses a mycoplasma (without cell wall which is why it is symbiotic with the nematode and also why penecillin doesn't affect it) "type" bacterium internally to digest fungi/yeast/insect larvae. There are no yeast, fungi, nor bacterium that can bite or crawl on you regardless of what Dr. Schwartz wants to believe - I have been in the microbiological control industry for over 20 years so yes, I consider myself an expert. Even protozoa and bacteria with flagella need an aqueous environment to motor around, skin won't cut it! These nematodes can and DO pick up other bacteriums like Lyme disease and CAN transfer them to the victim - that is the Lyme tie-in. I also firmly believe that other opportunistic pathogens are attracted to the sores that these nematodes create, especially collembola which are known to feed on micro nematodes. There was a thread a while back that showed many with this disease were gardeners. Guess who would come into contact with these things? YUP. Also anyone living near farms or wet areas (that is the tie-in with flooding in your basement/crawl space, etc.) are susceptible. And I also think that anyone with chronic or systemic candida are MUCH more prone to attack than those without. I also think there is a genetic factor involved as to who gets it and who doesn't.
That's my theory and it certainly explains why an anti-candida diet could significantly help. It also explains why antibiotics are working for many patients (kills the bacteria the nematodes need for digestion). And it also explains why ivermectin taken in spaced doses or doxymectin have been showing good results. Another useful item has been micro-colloidal silver (Sovereign Silver) and that is because the silver particle sizes are much smaller than their competitors and needs to be to work on these micro nematodes.
Any holes in my theory? I think it about addresses everything. Oh yeah, I have spoken with the doctor who identified the nematodes - real scientific proof, not some unproven hypothesis based upon a remedy (yes, even I got caught in that trap thinking it was just the bacterium).
Be WELL me PEEPS!
Chem G
PS - I am most sure that Monsanto's initial work showed the nematode to be non-pathogenic to healthy humans but they never took into account the risk to immune compromised individuals nor individuals with chronic candida issues. Definitely a class-action to be had there if someone wants to go for bear!

Chem G, I don't want to do it without your permission, so would you copy what you wrote and make it it's own thread? Please and thank you.
Now, that's the juicy bone I've been waiting for.

Well Jess and Chem-G --It looks like you have turned Lisa's light bulb on, and many more I might add. My in put is , clean up the environment that fosters candida and you dispose of all the rest. This really clicks with my logic---my goodness why didn't I think of this. We were looking for answers on the moon and they were right under our feet,. Clue NASA in ppl. LOL. My gratitude guys, Great research . > My goodness , there goes my beer---hershey bars-- > I might add a warning here--DO NOT use aspertaim or splenda and think that you are doing yourself a favor--they are both toxic chemicals. The old sacherin sp took a bad rap to make way for this other junk. Another MonSanto boondoggle. It has a carcogenian lable but it is hookem also. My $.25 worth. Corn sweetner from GM corn that supports the micky mouse genetics that goes with the nemitode that carries the bacteria that makes the filliment that kills the corn worm...Enjoy your corn flakes. And I don't know why I swallowed the fly--I think I'll die A tip-- mercola.com will tell you how to approch the healthy diet...his philosophy goes hand in hand with this protocal.

It might be good for all of you to understand how the candida yeast gets from your gut, turnes into a fungus and into your bones.. Do a google search on LGS----or leaky gut syndrom---or intestinal permiability. My suspicion is that those with candida candiasis are very good candidates for some gut repair as well.. The old saying goes--health begins in the gut.

There was a certain fellow, who proposed many moons ago (over 12), that Candida was central to Morgellons. His name begins with a J and rhymes with Chef. That line of reasoning with many others flew out the door, but nevertheless I did complement the good fellow on his deduction. I'm not sure anyone believed him. Thought you might want to know.

Well i know a lot of candida info was passed along in the previous thread when candida was hashed about......looking forward to Jess's too! Here's some info i ran into regarding a certain blend of amino acids. candida info first: www.life-enthusiast.com/amino/candida.htmwww.life-enthusiast.com/amino/candida_diet.htmamino acid info. this blend is beneficial when eating more protien as well as addressing protien difficiency or absorption. it addresses sulphur imbalance, helps to detox heavy metals, and has other benefits as well . i have no idea of the validity or any connection to the product. there are studies done and referrenced. A seattle dr. (phd in nutrition) recommended them. www.life-enthusiast.com/amino/index.htmthe dr.'s site who created them ...nice fellow btw. www.supernutrientcorporationusa.com/
