Morgellons
Although
Morgellons is not usually listed as a co-infection of Lyme, it
is commonly associated with chronic Lyme disease, and yet there
is more speculation about the syndrome/disease than hard
facts.
Recently,
Marc Neumann has released an excellent research document on
Morgellons that you can access here.
Personally,
I have accepted the monthly appearance of these "slimy
biofilms" and bizarre skin eruptions as part of my chronic Lyme
disease, and rejected the notion of Morgellons because I never
saw a filial worm. After reading Mr. Neuman's research I
can see that I have this additional syndrome to add to my list
of co-infections. My hope is that you will not, but it is
wise to have clear and factual information on the
condition.
Again,
the link to Mr. Neumann's site is
here.
It is
important to note that the variations of these biofilms and
biological microfibers are very diverse and extremely
small. Another aspect of the condition is that the body
tends to eject the fibers and biofilm most frequently
around the full moon.
My
experience has been that the harder I attack the Lyme disease,
the more skin eruptions occur.
It is
important to consult your LLD if you suspect you have
Morgellons.
