Thanks so much for your interesting theory and information about the H2S and helpful with parasite infestation which also can mimic Lyme easy cure. I would imagine that those items could also be very helpful for those with parasitic infestations…I think it is worth looking into.

Thanks again for the post!

There is some VERY interesting news in the chronic fatigue syndrome world about hydrogen sulfide (H2S) that is produced by gut bacteria being the cause of most of the symptoms of CFS.

I wonder if this may also be true of Morgellons or Lyme? Hydrogen sulfide is a potent toxin to the brain, and also sensitizes the brain to heightened anxiety. So hydrogen sulfide may cause the anxiety disorder in CFS, and possibly cause the anxiety problems in Morgellons and Lyme too.

The good news is, this situation can be treated.

Two things that help eliminate and mop up hydrogen sulfide in the body are Pepto-Bismol (10 to 20 ml, three times a day), and sublingual vitamin B12 (but it MUST be the hydroxocobalamin form of vitamin B12, as the other forms are not good for mopping up hydrogen sulfide).

A quick visit to your pharmacy to buy some Pepto-Bismol, and an online purchase of some sublingual hydroxocobalamin drops, and your Morgellons symptoms could be treated.

Please note that I am just passing this info in case it helps. I obviously cannot say whether or not hydrogen sulfide is the cause of the mental symptoms of Morgellons / Lyme, but for the cost of a few items, it is easy to test this theory out youself.

There is some discussion about hydrogen sulfide in CFS in the comments section on my blog.

All the best

PS: There has been a lot of research into high ammonia levels in Morgellons. Since ammonia powerfully activates the anxiety circuitry in the brain ( ammonia potently activates the brain cell NMDA receptors, which mediate anxiety), this makes a lot of sense. Similarly, the neurotoxin hydrogen sulfide over-sensitizes and also activates the NMDA receptors.
