There are a lot of things you should be doing as I can attest these diseases are all closely related.
The only difference is how many coinfections do you have with your illness. If you are at the stage of visible parasites or relapsing bacterial infections you will need anthelmintic medication.
See my Ivermectin video at ClintFromNYtoVA channel on YouTube.com
More videos are on the way as well as blog posts.
We are going to talk about why I use certain items and don't use other items mentioned on the internet. Half of the stuff on the internet is wrong.
We are going to break them all down one by one in the future so follow this blog. Follow my work and you will find the answers.
You can start a few things right away, and eliminate others.
No sugar, no bread, limit dairy to unsweetened yogurt, no processed foods or quick carbs.
Nascent Iodine is very useful but NOT with thyroid meds. 1mg per day, incrementing slowly to a max of 20mg. Go slow. Take it on an empty stomach and then eat a fatty meal (I eat avocado) 30 minutes later.
SSKI is a potential huge mistake waiting to happen.
Make sure you are on a multivitamin, multi-mineral supplement, but know this is not enough.
800mg loading dose Fluconazole (FLZ) then 400 mg daily. I take it with Doxycycline (Doxy) 200mg twice daily and Biaxin 500 mg twice daily. I take my Doxy on an empty stomach so 90% is absorbed. I am also rotating anthelmintics and DEC.
Nystatin is useful.
I get my meds from several Indian Pharmacies. If you contact me I can tell you where to get from the source that I do for less if you do not have insurance or a willing doctor.
Biofilms are tricky, If you are not attacking the bacteria, you should NOT be using enzymes to battle biofilms. If you are on antibiotics why aren't you on Enzymes? Nattokinase, Serrapeptase, Bromelain on empty stomach on wake.
If you use antibiotics and you aren't on 3 different types, ask why, and prepare to find a new doctor. You must add probiotics to your diet daily with food.
Magnesium is essential if your are inflamed. A pinch of Epsom Salt in each liter of water helps inflammation. Less is more. FIND your tolerance. REVISION: as much as Epsom Salts helped me to determine how quickly magnesium would help me, Trans dermal Magnesium Chloride would be the better way to go and does not interfere with medications.
5000mg Flax seed oil daily if you are inflamed. 4000mg Modified Citrus Pectin daily for at least 2 months.
Increase zinc substantially but slowly if you find yourself urinating frequently all of the time. Increase copper but take it 12 hours after zinc. Selenium, D3, K2 every other day. REVISION: In light of new evidence against D3 supplementation for the immunocompromised, I am no longer recommending it. Minimize calcium and dairy.
4000mg Monolaurin. Eat everything coconut and coconut oil is good for skin also but messy.
The 'bugs' eat your manganese and deplete your zinc and copper. If you starve yourself of minerals you get sicker and thing begin to fail in your system. Plus they move on to their second favorite mineral anyways and so on.
Boost your minerals and gut flora with resistant starches and powdered vegetables. Look it up or wait for my segment on it.
Half the stuff on the internet is wrong and it all depends on your co-infections. The internet tends to generalize as do people who should know better.
If you cant afford the Fluconazole get Xylitol which I call the poor man's Fluconazole. BUILD your tolerance slowly.
If anything makes you herx, back it off, if anything gives you diarrhea reduce it the amount but don't stop these things.
You didn't get sick in one day. This has been happening for some time, you just didn't know what was happening until it got out of hand.
I know you are angry but your health cannot afford to be as stress and worry only make it worse. Stay tuned. Stay Calm.

GMO. Taking the Focus off of Food for a Better Understanding of Our Barve New World.of Emerging Disease
When GMO is mentioned people generally think food. This is the first error in understanding the scope of the problem and connection to emerging disease.
The Organisms are what you need to be concerned with. The practice of deploying these GM Organisms in agricultural pest control has been widespread and overt for some time.
It is unregulated and experimental. Yet the focus is intentionally misdirected toward food and away from the imminent danger.
We are beginning to see evidence of creatures that shouldn't ever have come into existence in nature and their direct links to chronic illness.
Cross species modification and the horizontal gene transfers that these organisms are capable of are the genesis for today's emerging diseases which resemble and include
Lyme Disease is frequently misdiagnosed as CFS and Fibromyalgia. Its common co-infections such as Bartonella are evolving faster than available testing.
If you have long red streaks that appear like scratch marks on the skin, crazy uncomfortable eye symptoms you could be infected with an emerging disease often overlooked.
There are now over 40 species of potentially infectious Bartonella bacteria:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28221130
Lyme Books less than 6 months old state that there are 23 species. This bacteria is evolving rapidly and is a common co-infection in Lyme disease.
Standard testing for Bartonella infection is available for only 2 species. You could easily test negative and have this disease.
Scientist will throw the words 'discovery' and 'evolution' around to make it seem that these organisms have always existed. Our technology as limited as it may be, has been a bit too advanced for some time for oversight to be probable.
Living beings have 'evolved' rapidly in the last 30 years. The timing of which is not at all coincidental but correlated.
Disease agents that were once confined to singular kingdoms are now infecting others. Funneliformis mosseae was a fungus that only affected plants until recently. The first recorded cases of human infection were published in April of 2017 in medical journals.
PUBMED ARTICLE FIRST RECORDED HUMAN INFECTION FUNNILFORMIS MOSSEAE:
Evidence for polymicrobial communities in explanted vascular filters and atheroma debris.
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28411089
Excerpt:
"The main contributing prokaryotic species in atheroma debris suggest a diverse and novel composition...
Additionally, Funneliformis mosseae, ... was detected in the coronary hard plaque from two patients
Today's form of this fungus posses mixed DNA which led to it initially being mistaken for a protist organism on first 'discovery' by people who should know better.
Mixed species do not have offspring and should NOT exist.
Yet this genie is now out of the bottle and this cannot be undone. The industries responsible will be not be held accountable without the people demanding it. The people cannot demand for something they vaguely understand.
The consequences are widespread emerging disease and there are not enough effective pharmaceuticals in the pipeline to assist. It has never been more important to keep your immune system healthy than it is today.

DNA Transfer and Emerging Infectious Disease.
I believe there may be a correlation to the emergence of new infectious diseases to the time period where cross species modification has become so common place. It is occurring on a large scale today.
The following scientific article postulates that we now have more than 100 different genes from different species, even kingdoms if you will, yet alludes that evolution is responsible.
If evolution is responsible then why have humans evolved so quickly in the last 3 decades?
http://www.sciencemag.org/news/2015/03/humans-may-harbor-more-100-genes-other-organisms
Is it possible that there has been cross species contamination resulting in new infectious diseases?
It seems there is a great deal of skepticism with regards to this topic.
I doubt emerging infectious diseases of the last 3 decades would have occured had we limited genetic modification to the same species.
We have delicious and healthy bananas because of genetic modification within the species.
It is the practice of multiple cross species modifications that concerns me and its not just happening in salmon.
It being performed across bacteria, nematodes, fungi, et al, that are used in crop pest control across a wide range of unregulated products.
Agrobacterium and bartonella were once two of a very small number of bacteria that were capable of horizontal gene transfer. Now there are many more.
As we become more plant like, insect like, fungus like, etc., it opens up the possibility that we become affected by pathogens that used to be limited to just plants and insects.
Any diseases which resulted from these actions would be by default an emerging infection.
I dont believe that nature or evolution is responsible for these new forms of organisms with DNA that have become so genetically complex.
Conjugative DNA transfer into human cells by the VirB/VirD4 type IV secretion system of the bacterial pathogen Bartonella henselae.

What is it regarding expanding horizontal and vertical gene transfers connection to emerging diseases that makes it so difficult to comprehend? Or is it just too scary a topic to consider?
More importantly if cross contamination of genes is responsible for emerging infectious diseases, is there anything that can be done to contain it?
No, there is no way to put that genie back into the bottle so they will just continue to scramble for new drugs and when they find them you might get treatment. The problem is that they are not finding drugs that work at all.

Chronic Morgellons Scalp gets a medically recognized name.
If you
discount the alluded racial bias, this sounds like a part of what we
have come to know as the scalp breakout condition common to Morgellons
and it has a name!
The article I reference below is from a medical journal and states the alopecia (hair loss) as irreversible.
I am slowing hair loss dramatically and my scalp conditions have resolved.
The similarities described in the condition outlined below are stikingly familiar to those experiencing symptoms of Morgellon scalp.
Maybe these conditions are not one in the same but I've bolded the similarities to what Morgellons sufferers go through.
Here's where it gets really cool:
Newer pathologic hair findings include: pigmented casts,black dots, and "3D" yellow dots . Newer associations include: keratitis-ichthyosis-deafness syndrome, Crohn disease and pyoderma gangrenosum. Older associations include arthritis and keratitis.
Are you ready for the name?
Say the following 5 times quickly:
Folliculitis et perifolliculitis capitis abscedens et suffodiens
"Folliculitis et perifolliculitis capitis abscedens et suffodiens is a rare disease of unknown etiology. It is a suppurative process that involves the scalp, eventually resulting in extensive scarring and irreversible alopecia. The condition is also known as ‘acne necrotica miliaris’ or ‘Proprionibacterium’ folliculitis...
The clinical picture is determined by fluctuating painful fistule-forming conglomerates of abscesses in the region of the occipital scalp.
The cause of scalp folliculitis is not well understood. It is generally considered to be an inflammatory reaction to components of the hair follicle, particularly the micro-organisms.
These include: bacteria (especially Propionibacterium acnes, but in severe cases, also Staphylococcus aureus), Yeasts (Malassezia species) and mites (Demodex folliculorum).
The initial histopathologic finding is an exclusively neutrophilic infiltration followed by a granulomatous infiltrate. The treatment of the disease is usually difficult and often disappointing.....
The main reason is considered to be the disordered keratinization and further occlusion and accumulation of keratin at the hair follicle.
After a dilatation followed by rupture, not only a granulomatous inflammatory process accompanied by the attraction of gigantic cells, partially phagocyting the keratin masses are induced in the hair follicle, but also an inflammatory bacterial process derived from a superinfection, most frequently caused by Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis, which are considered to be the main factors in the chemotaxis of neutrophils."
Now for the treatment (not cure) and its a doozy....
"Successful treatment with Isotretinoin 1 mg/kg body mass could be achieved only after regular systematic administration in the course of 3–4 months.
Eruptive purulent form of the disease, has been controlled with combination therapy: systemic antibiosis with metronidazole and clindamycin, dermatosurgical removal of single nodular formations, and isotretinoin 1 mg/kg body mass for 3–5 months."
I will be honest, the treatment sounds almost as bad as the condition.
Plus this is similar to just one aspect of Morgellons.
Many with the Morgellons condition experience healing in the scalp afterward a short period of time and treatment with antifungals and antihelmintic drugs.
There's also a cancer scare statement contained within this documented scalp condition so be prepared. It could be suggested at any time by your doctor that you should treat with chemo and radiation. Dont fall for it. We all should know better by now.
At least we have a starting point and a name (holy heck and how) and medical journal references.
You can bring it to your doctor and see if he can pronounce it.
Be prepared for the doctor to place emphasis on the disease affecting men of African-American or African-Caribbean descent.
So you may have to bring the second article that indicates other races.
/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3132914/
Here it acknowledges "but the condition also has been reported in other races and in women. "
emedicine.medscape.com/article/1072603-overview
And one for good luck...
/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24852785
The drug used to treat the condition, Isotretinoin, sounds like a weaponized modification of Vitamin A.
"Isotretinoin is available only from a certified pharmacy under a special program called iPLEDGE. You must be registered in the program and understand the risks and benefits of taking this medicine.
It is dangerous to try and purchase isotretinoin on the Internet or from vendors outside of the United States.
Isotretinoin in just a single dose can cause severe birth defects or death of a baby. Never use this medicine if you are pregnant or may become pregnant."
/www.drugs.com/mtm/isotretinoin.html
Newer treatments reported include tumor necrosis factor blockers (TNFB), quinolones, macrolide antibiotics, rifampin, alitretinoin, metronidazole, and high dose zinc sulphate (135-220 mg TID). Isotretinoin seems to provide the best chance at remission, but the number of reports is small, dosing schedules variable, and the long term follow up beyond a year is negligible; treatment failures have been reported. TNFB can succeed when isotretinoin fails, either as monotherapy, or as a bridge to aggressive surgical treatment, but long term data is lacking. Non-medical therapies noted in the last decade include: the 1064 nm laser, ALA-PDT, and modern external beam radiation therapy . Studies that span more than 1 year are lacking.
/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24852785
So is this an accurate depiction of what happens to the scalp of Morgellons sufferers? Post your assessment in the comment
section.
What to do immediately if you experience an episode of Morgellons Scalp?
Discontinue all sugar, and carbs (including bread and pasta) for 3 days. Keep track of how you respond to this diet change. If there is improvement, it can rule out certain possibilities and shed light on what is causing your symptom and eliminate some possibilities.

Mold, Lyme, and Morgellons The Subtle Differences. Therapy Options (Part one - 10 pass ozone)
Lyme is defined by Borellia bacteria infection. Co-infections are everything else that come with it. Borellia can originate from
many vectors not just ticks as we have been led to believe. Left untreated it often soon becomes accompanied by
co-infections that include several other bacteria which we will discuss in future writings.
Morgellons, remains unrecognized by the medical establishment so many doctors act as if it does not exist. It is comparable to Lyme on steroids with a nasty twist.
In both cases a Lyme Literate Medical Doctor (LLMD) will be your best chance at getting medical treatment. When dealing with any doctor try to avoid being the first one to use the word 'Morgellons'. Approach your condition as Lyme with additional symptoms. Stick to the symptoms and avoid speculation of what you think it is or repeating what you've read on the internet.
Some have been labeled delusional by doctors and once this appears on your medical record, each doctor that follows will see this diagnosis and may be biased.
Here is a good resource to help you find a doctor willing to assist:
http://www.lymeinfo.net/directory.html
But what about mold sickness? The following is information on the tests to request alongside additional resources:
http://moldvictim.org/lab-tests-to-help-doctors-diagnose-mold-illness/
As I stated in an earlier post, a few years ago I moved to (The Republic of) Panama from Virginia. I now find myself living in an area where there is no Lyme and there are no LLMDs. At the start of it all, I attempted to get medical assistance but I was told I am fine and there is nothing wrong with the exception of allergies. I was given a prescription for three different eye drops. What an excellent pharmaceutical salesman that doctor was!
Mold Sickness and Morgellons both are accompanied by sensations of crawling, stinging, or biting. Often you see nothing but would swear something just bit or stung you. Lyme victims often lack this symptom.
Mold can cause a flat red lesion about the size of a dime with a dot in the middle. It appears somewhere isolated on the body. Unlike an insect bite which is often raised, the resulting macular lesion is not raised. It takes weeks longer to resolve than an insect bite and may or may not itch. Just as it finally heals another may appear somewhere else on the body.
Lyme has been stereotyped with an erythema migrans rash as pictured in the next link below. It is nicknamed the 'bulls eye' rash but it doesnt always look like a bulls eye and varies in size.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erythema_chronicum_migrans
The rash can vary in size but heals from the center towards the edges, referred to as central clearing. About half of Lyme victims do not notice any rash.
A Lyme co-infection named Bartonella will cause a rash with long wide streaks to appear in a vertical or horizontal pattern. These marks appear like scratch marks but the 'streaks' can appear almost instantaneously.
http://lymemd.blogspot.com/2015/03/what-is-bartonella.html
"There are currently over 40 documented species of Bartonella, identified as causing human diseases—including cat scratch disease; Carrion’s disease; trench fever; endocarditis; bacteremia; myocarditis; bacillary angiomatosis; and various ocular diseases
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5382735/
Clinical signs and symptoms of infection vary widely depending on both the specific tissue infected and the immune status of the host. Bartonella henselae is the most common ocular pathogen, although B. quintana, B. grahamii and B. elizabethae infections each have been reported to infect the eye."

Mold is a fungus. In Spanish they do not distinguish from mold, mildew, fungus, ringworm, yeast, candida, or even edible mushrooms. It is all called 'hongos'.
There are certain molds that exist in yeast form at body temperature. These are known as dimorphic fungi as they can exist in different forms depending on the temperature of their environment. These are adaptable and some are pathogenic to humans.
Dimorphic fungi comprised of known and yet to be classified type play a central role in Morgellons.
Researchers are often confused by the undocumented DNA sequences being discovered in fungi today. Upon closer examination, they contain DNA resembling multiple types of organisms.
These are difficult to classify as they can have characteristics of a protozoa with parts resembling yeast and other organisms.

Below is a link to an interview with Dr. S. Fry describing a new organism, protomyxzoa rhematica, with mixed species traits as "similar to malaria, similar to babesiosis, even more complex genetically, sort of in between a helminth [parasitic worm] and a protozoan."

I am confident that more will emerge going forward.
The fungus like growth attracts fungi consuming insects which will bite you. You may find multiple types of insects taking an interest in you. After all you smell like food. The bite from an infected insect injects bacteria and microscopic nematode larvae just under the skin.
A healthy immune system can respond to the invaders where a Mold Sick individual will be unable to.
Treat insect bites as soon as possible to prevent larvae maturation and dissemination. Place a generous dab of antibiotic ointment on the bite area about the size of and thickness of a dime. Loosely cover it with a band aid so the ointment doesn't get wiped away, but leave space for the ointment to bulge a bit.
Continue to do this and try to keep ointment atop it for at least 24 hours consecutively. Reapply ointment as needed to keep a layer on the bite with new band-aids as needed.
In a pinch where you have no antibiotic ointment, you can wipe the area with alcohol and then dab some petroleum jelly.
The idea is to cause any microscopic nematode larvae introduced under the skin to surface seeking oxygen. They then get coated in ointment, suffocate, and die.
Untreated the larvae mature, reproduce, disseminate, and create additional bacteria. Each type of larvae are known to have symbiotic relationships with certain bacteria. Where there is one you will find the other.
This is one of the most overlooked aspects of Lyme and or Morgellons by many doctors, including the ones familiar with these diseases. Many fail to address parasites and fungal issues and prescribe one or more antibiotics.
Antibiotics encourage fungal growth. Many on antibiotics get better temporarily only to get sick again as these bacteria producing nematodes often go unaddressed.
A course of Doxycycline administered quickly after initial infection may prevent Lyme, but there have been cases that show this is not always the case.
Both Morgellons and Lyme begin with a vector but present with slight differences. These differences can help you to determine which you are dealing with. Both are slowly advancing conditions and get worse if left untreated.
If you can recognize early warning signs there are many steps you can take to treat and prevent co-infections. The later you wait to treat, the more co-infections that will follow.
Morgellons often initially presents as a yeast or fungal infection. For men this may manifest as the jock-itch from hell that wont resolve using topical anti-fungal and yeast creams. It may manifest as ringworm that keeps returning regardless of the amount of Terbinafine your doctor prescribes.
Sufferers of Morgellons and Mold Sickness can experience intermittent crawling, and biting sensations occur as infection affects the nervous system. Yeast grows explosively in budding chains and this too affects the nervous system.
A major difference with Morgellons sufferers when compared to Lyme is a major widespread insatiable itch that is relentless.
Through each stage of each of the three infections, I experienced varying degrees of this sensation known as formication.
There are other symptoms common to Mold Sickness, also found in Lyme, which include cluster headaches, tinnitus, sneezing, and increased tear production. Vision problems and red eyes were one of my earliest symptoms.
An important point to make is that Mold Sickness can precede Lyme which can precede Morgellons.
All three can experience some form of lung pain. The way this presents can be a big clue as to which is affecting you.
Morgellons produces pain on inhale that slowly progresses often unilaterally at first. It comes and goes. Then it gets worse and eventually progresses to the adjacent lung. In Morgellons nothing shows on an X-ray or CT scan of the area and you are told that you are fine but may be given some pills to help you 'feel better'.
For myself it has responded to Biaxin (Clarithromycin) 500mg bid.
Mold Sickness may show visibly on X-ray or CT scan in cases of invasive Aspergillosis.
Lyme lung pain is different still and is often described as a feeling of 'air hunger' or not being able to absorb oxygen.
In Lyme a bacterial co-infection named Babesia is often the culprit. Babs, as we like to call her, brings night sweats, vivid dreams, and waking in the wee morning hours. She leaves you breathless but not in a good way!
Skin may also eject tiny specs or barely visible grains which can be felt but not always seen and although some Lyme sufferers experience this condition they may have Morgellons and not know it yet.
One of the late and most upsetting symptoms of Mogellons are visible fibers of multiple colors protruding from the skin. The disease is classified by this symptom but this is flawed logic as it occurs late after exposure.
Going forward I believe it will become widespread knowledge that carriers of Morgellons have pupils that fluoresce in UV light and testing can be done at home with a UV flashlight costing under $10.
Morgellons sufferers can also experience visible parasitic infections from untreated bites from multiple vectors. These often manifest as worms but can include mites, flies as in myiasis, and anthropod like creatures, and in some cases collembolan.
One way you can determine if you have actual mites crawling on the skin is to cease consumption of all bread products, sugar, and starches for a week. It may only take a few days to get an answer as in my case all crawling stopped in three days of the dietary change.
If the crawling sensation responds to this by stopping, then it is being caused by yeast (dimporphic fungi) and or bacteria and not by the larger parasites. It truly does feel like mites crawling all over and can be very deceiving.
Morgellons sufferers commonly experience scalp lesions and rash, and other skin lesions in other parts of the body well before any visible fibers appear.These are slow to heal and never really return to the original skin color leaving a blemish well after healing.
Friends and associates of mine with various degrees of Mold Sickness, Lyme, and Morgellons have shared with me some success stories which have helped them achieve remission of their condition.
Since it takes five years of being symptom free to medically define one as cured we will have to wait and see if they are cures but we can explore the ones that help.
I also have discovered some things that slow the progression of the diseases on my own through research, as well as clinical detection methods for testing for these conditions to know if you are afflicted and the differences.
I must disclose that I am not a doctor and just a guy on the internet who has been inspired to bring you some helpful information from the conjecture of myself and others with these afflictions. I give no medical advice and you are ultimately the one responsible for whatever action you decide to take going forward.
There is little scientific evidence that tells us anything definitive about these conditions no less how to cure them. I have shared in your suffering so I wish to offer as much help as I possibly can.
Going forward we are going to take a closer look at some successful treatment stories from myself and others and what they did to get there. This first one is one of the most promising.
TEN PASS OZONE THERAPY
I wrote a recent email to a clinic in Salt Lake City which I heard was the cheapest in the United States for this treatment but I am not aware if this is fact. I have no affiliation with the clinic but have provided a link to their site in case you wish to take a closer look at what they offer.
Rather than attempt to explain something that I myself have yet to attempt I encourage you to direct your questions about the therapy directly to the clinic at the link below to see if it is right for you.
I have attempted only direct intravenous ozone therapy and reached a point of stalemate to where I was not improving after 8 weeks only to then find out that this form of ozone treatment carries high risk, whereas the one below is a more proper application of ozone therapy with high rates of reported success.
http://tinyurl.com/10PassOzoneSLC
The email below is my inquiry to this clinic. It details what I have been through and reflects my own personal story so as I wear my heart on my sleeve I wish to share it with you:
"I am inquiring about 10 pass ozone therapy cost and the time it would take to complete this.
I would naturally travel to Salt Lake and would also like to know what hotels are closest to your office to taxi as needed.
I have multiple infections that began manifesting beginning with long term mold exposure starting in August of 2014 which led to mold sickness.
The suspected dimorphic fungi became systemic and weakened my immune system which then invited multiple co-infections.
Just when I thought I had cured myself of the mold sickness and discontinued Fluconazole, then following month specific Lyme symptoms developed.
More recently there are the beginning of symptoms of that strange condition the medical system wont recognize.
It is often referred to as starting with an 'M'. It is the disease that will automatically get me labeled as delusional if I so much as mention it and therefore I dare not.
I have not progressed downhill rapidly because I have continuously researched medical journals for close to a 1000 hours and counting for the duration of this illness.
I have been self treating with Fluconazole and multiple antibiotics and anthelmintics.
I do try to be cautious but nobody should be placed in a position where they feel as if there is no other option.
Had I trusted any previous doctors I have dealt with to date, I would likely have a detached rectus in my left eye but because I began self treatment, my eye feels better than it has been in a little over 2 years.
Every trip to any conventional specialist has been a complete waste of time and money as they continuously misdiagnose, and refuse to listen.
If I had eye allergies as they suggested, then why did a Doxycycline / Fluconazole combination clear up my eye?!
I would prefer not to continue to ingest potentially toxic drugs and begin to work towards restoring my gut flora.
In addition to this, I also have good reason to believe that I have am dealing with a Propionibacterium acnes infection in my spine.
This has manifested as a slow progression of chronic pain which has been escalating for 28 years.
L5/S1 is confirmed herniated by MRI, yet the thoracic region dosent show anything remarkable. The pain in the thoracic region sometimes feels as if it migrates between T9/10 and T4/5.
There was no trauma to my spine and it all began a few years after my first dental implant at the age of 20. I am now 48 years of age.
I have not been officially diagnosed with anything (except herniation at L5/S1) because the specialists have failed me.
Rather than test for anything that I have specifically asked for they have deceived me by testing for things that I did not request and then attempted to refer me to additional specialists.
The irony is that I am paying 100% out of pocket so why is it I cant obtain the specific tests that I have asked for?
I know this must be as difficult to believe as it is for me to disclose.
Please let me know what problems you can help with and what I should and or should not expect from ozone treatment.
I am frustrated but keeping calm and making progress, but nobody should have to do this alone."
There is a very good chance that you are not delusional and its a sure bet that you are not alone.
Your stress levels directly correlate to how fast the disease will progress or how quickly you may recover. I assure you panicking and pointing fingers will only make the situation a whole lot worse quickly.
Be careful. There is a lot of misinformation about these conditions on the internet and we will discuss this in the future also. Some even telling you not to bathe. You should absolutely try to keep yourself as clean as possible, but there is no reason to go overboard or resort to dangerous chemical treatments. You didn't get this overnight and there is no speedy cure.
The best first thing you can do is to avoid sugar, breads, and most carbs and begin taking Xylitol in 1/4 tsp increments until you can handle up to 4 tsp per day. This will cut down the yeast and many invasive bacteria as it will consume the Xylitol thinking it is sugar, but will not be able to convert it into energy causing it to starve.
Subscribe to this blog as well as my YouTube channel ClintFromNYtoVA and feel free to share it with others. Keep hope alive and know that we will one day find the answer and if there are people to hold accountable we will do so. I wish you recovery and peace of mind.
Until next time do yourself a favor and stay calm.
This blog is dynamically being updated as well as all of the previous posts on Morgellons as I review them and think of better ways to express my ideas and communicate my thoughts. So check the old posts also as there has likely been something new added to them recently.

Morgellons, remains unrecognized by the medical establishment so many doctors act as if it does not exist. It is comparable to Lyme on steroids with a nasty twist.
In both cases a Lyme Literate Medical Doctor (LLMD) will be your best chance at getting medical treatment. When dealing with any doctor try to avoid being the first one to use the word 'Morgellons'. Approach your condition as Lyme with additional symptoms. Stick to the symptoms and avoid speculation of what you think it is or repeating what you've read on the internet.
Some have been labeled delusional by doctors and once this appears on your medical record, each doctor that follows will see this diagnosis and may be biased.
Here is a good resource to help you find a doctor willing to assist:
http://www.lymeinfo.net/directory.html
But what about mold sickness? The following is information on the tests to request alongside additional resources:
http://moldvictim.org/lab-tests-to-help-doctors-diagnose-mold-illness/
As I stated in an earlier post, a few years ago I moved to (The Republic of) Panama from Virginia. I now find myself living in an area where there is no Lyme and there are no LLMDs. At the start of it all, I attempted to get medical assistance but I was told I am fine and there is nothing wrong with the exception of allergies. I was given a prescription for three different eye drops. What an excellent pharmaceutical salesman that doctor was!
Mold Sickness and Morgellons both are accompanied by sensations of crawling, stinging, or biting. Often you see nothing but would swear something just bit or stung you. Lyme victims often lack this symptom.
Mold can cause a flat red lesion about the size of a dime with a dot in the middle. It appears somewhere isolated on the body. Unlike an insect bite which is often raised, the resulting macular lesion is not raised. It takes weeks longer to resolve than an insect bite and may or may not itch. Just as it finally heals another may appear somewhere else on the body.
Lyme has been stereotyped with an erythema migrans rash as pictured in the next link below. It is nicknamed the 'bulls eye' rash but it doesnt always look like a bulls eye and varies in size.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erythema_chronicum_migrans
The rash can vary in size but heals from the center towards the edges, referred to as central clearing. About half of Lyme victims do not notice any rash.
A Lyme co-infection named Bartonella will cause a rash with long wide streaks to appear in a vertical or horizontal pattern. These marks appear like scratch marks but the 'streaks' can appear almost instantaneously.
http://lymemd.blogspot.com/2015/03/what-is-bartonella.html
"There are currently over 40 documented species of Bartonella, identified as causing human diseases—including cat scratch disease; Carrion’s disease; trench fever; endocarditis; bacteremia; myocarditis; bacillary angiomatosis; and various ocular diseases
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5382735/
Clinical signs and symptoms of infection vary widely depending on both the specific tissue infected and the immune status of the host. Bartonella henselae is the most common ocular pathogen, although B. quintana, B. grahamii and B. elizabethae infections each have been reported to infect the eye."

Mold sickness, then Lyme, and my Descent into Morgellons - My story and steps taken
This blog will begin to move into the direction of analyzing treatments that people claim have helped or cured them.
In August of 2014 I moved to Panama. The infection would be triggered by mold sickness. I may have become infected in VA.
I began to have a film cover my eye and reduced my vision slowly and became irritated.
A painful epididymal cyst in my testicle was diagnosed. I now suspect this was a mold spore.
Alternaria was clearly visible in the home. I've read cases where dogs testicles have swollen from exposure. It infected my left eye.
I began to develop a ringworm type rash on the face and body.
3 months slow incremental dosing of Nascent Iodine to 15mg daily cleared the cyst, bran fog, cluster headaches, restored energy, and has rejuvenated my thyroid.
Terbinafine 500mg bid /15d was tried initially and attacked a fungal infection in a muscle behind the left eye. I felt it working one hour after taking it as the muscle behind my left eye tingled and itched.
Itraconazole 100mg /11d helped clear the 'film' that was forming on the cornea.
From the start I appeared to have very few isolated spots of tinea versicolor on arms.
A few subcutaneous nodules appear from time to time taking weeks to resolve much like in Sporotrichosis yet I dont believe it is.
Unlike S.schenckii which causes Sporo there is no suppuration in the forearms and these do not progress to pustules nor gummata in the arms.
There appears to be a hematogenous spread from these hard yet painless nodules in the forearm to soft painless enlargements appearing like stops on a metro rail map within swollen veins. I would guess these are near lymph nodes.
After this first course I saw an ophthalmologist who stain tested the eyes for fungal infection and completed a thorough examination with a slit lamp. I believe at the time there was still candida in the eyes which he some how missed. It was likely small or I developed it shortly after.
I should have seen him before the Itraconazole but the timing just worked out this way.
There is 5-10% permanent damage, to the ciliary muscle. The left eye is not able to focus as accurately as it did before.
I will attempt the Bates method to restore the ciliary muscle and improve my focus.
Doxycycline 100mg bid used would later prove his diagnosis of allergies as incorrect.
I discovered Fluconazole had better penetration in the eye. It is over the counter here. It cleared all skin rash and resolved floaters. The final problem of a stationary foreign object on the cornea resolved and I was ecstatic.
Combining Fluconazole with Nystatin pulsing helped kill the excess yeast in the gut (herx city). Combining it with Doxy pulsing restored the sclera from red to white rather rapidly.
Doxycycline is known to make Fluconazole go from fungistatic to fungicidal.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3393430/
6 months of continuous daily use of Fluconazole 400 mg and cured, or so I thought....
Oil pulling with ozonated Coconut Oil and Xylitol quickly and effectively arrested and cleared a failed dental implant infection that was beginning to hurt.
I suspect P. Acnes bacteria which normally resides on the skin traveled through a dental implant that I got in my 20's and caused the chronic pain in my spine that I have suffered from for 28 years. While I treat mold, lyme, and Morgellons symptoms I have also begun taking Augmentin tid for 100 days as was outlined in this clinical study:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3631045/
I cannot recommend dental implants. I plan to have remaining ones removed.
Throw away your glycerine toothpaste and get a non-glycerine one like EarthPaste.
The glycerin coats teeth and prevents remineralization and healing of teeth.
I am finding it difficult to trust an industry that willingly gave us mercury fillings and marketed them as silver and will admit no harm. When I was a child I always thought they were silver. If only I knew then what I know now!
I am sorry to inform you that Lyme may cause you to lose your teeth anyway. Ask to see your teeth if you have them removed. You will notice the decay started on the inside and they are hollow rotting from the inside out.
From the outside this often appears as a cavity at the base of a tooth.
I figured if I had parasites then no other method for healing could work until I get rid of the parasites.
5 cycles of Ivermectin (4 days on 3off, 3days on,4 off, 2days on 5 off, 2days on 5 off). The 5th was of an extended length that I wont mention the length because I cannot justify doing a fifth cycle. This will knock out what it can knock out in 4 cycles.
I now use Ivermectin to quell any recurrence of itch and it works in one dose and quickly. A 6mg single dose now works for me and I dont need it often as long as I remain on Fluconazole 400 mg / d.
I believe Ivermectin has helped remove some nematode(s) in the GI tract. I did several antihelmintic drugs in a modified Klinghardt protocol. The protocol can be found below.
Colloidal silver drops in the ear remove any irritation within days and for weeks at a time.
I began experiencing lung pain which at the time I thought was Aspergilosis.
I went back on Itraconazole for 28 days. It had been 2 years from the first time I used it.
In January I got an S.schenckii (Sporotrichosis) similar folliculitis in scalp sores which scabbed, rash by ears, sores inside the left cheek, and facial hair.
I believed I had mites crawling all over my scalp,face,and ears, yet it made little sense to me that I was affected and not my wife.
I figured if it were mites it wouldnt care what I ate. I stopped all sugar, carbs, breads.
The sensation rapidly resolved (yet others do have mites or Bartonella or yeast causing the sensations). It was not mites in my case although there are many sufferers of this condition with fibers, mites, worms, bacteria, yeast, and viruses.
I have become host to invaders which likely attract new infections which feed on the previous arrivals. I have become the dinner plate.
Pores and skin fluoresce in UV light. Florescence occurs in the back of the throat between the tonsil walls and in pupils.
Tea tree oil soap as well as sulfur soaps have reduced areas which fluoresce on my skin.
28 days of Itraconazole at 100 mg bid should have helped S.schenckii or Aspergilosis but there was no improvement and continued breakout during.
A friend recommends Clarithromycin 500 bid for the lung pain. This helped greatly is less frequent with reduced intensity and is 95% better. I still battle this.
Far IR Sauna has cleared grains of sand and a few arthropod like creatures.
These will still emerge dead if I massage the area. Collembola?I have no idea. They are visible and crunchy.
I am also on my second 14 day course of Mebendazole 100 bid. I am on Tinidazole 500 bid 2 wk pulse at a pre fibrous stage of this condition.
Cover any new insect bite with antibiotic ointment (for 24 hours) to suffocate injected nematode larvae. They will surface and die, else disseminate. This is why some end up with worms.
Morgellons sufferers have one or more uncommon dimorphic fungi which have disseminated throughout as well as multiple bacterial infections and sometimes viral ones.
I have been told that one person with this condition that they tested positive for Chaetomium globosum a dimorphic fungi (exists as mold at room temperature / yeast at body temperature)
A quick search at the link below and you will also see that they are scrambling for a drug that is effective against this invasive fungi, so maybe there is something to this. I will continue to investigate.
This mold is modified and used in crop pest control.

This and other dimorphic fungi get in hair follicles. The yeast may cause tingling sensations as it grows.
I am slso on Diethylcarbamazine 100 qid and stabilized oxygen drops throught the day (the jury still out on these).

I am now using a modified version of the Klinghardt Protocol.
The Klinghardt Protocol from 2013 is listed below. I do not know what he uses todays and I have modified the folowing protocol and Ive personalized it as I have indicated above.
http://g2cforum.org/index.php/goto/technical-talk-mms-mms1/25297-parasite-protocol-dr-d-klinghardt-systemic-medications
1. Biltricide 600 mg - twice daily (q. 12 hours) for two days
Absorption increases most when taken with a high carb meal. A high fat meal increases it almost as much. Take with grapefruit juice to increase absorption also.
2. Ivermectin 12 mg - one 12 mg (or four 3 mg) tablet(s) four times per day for fourteen days (take at the same time as Pyrantel Pamoate) on an EMPTY stomach.
Pyrantel pamoate (liquid – 4 teaspoons) 1000 mg per day at bedtime for fourteen days.
3. Albenza 400 mg - Two 200 mg tablets twice per day for fourteen days (after completing fourteen days on Ivermectin and Pyrantel). Take with food. (every 12 hours)
4. Alinia 1000 mg - Two 500 mg tablets twice per day for fourteen days (after completing Albenza) every 12 hours
(A's addition from Dr. Clark’s Book - Levimasole 100 mg (3 times/day) before meals)
THEN 2 HERBS:
5. Mimosa Pudica (Biopure) - ½ teaspoon 2x/day for fourteen days mixed drink, milk or juice
6. Arteminisin (Biopure) - 200mgs 2x/day for fourteen days.
ALWAYS take with 4 oz. of grapefruit juice 30 minutes before meals.

In August of 2014 I moved to Panama. The infection would be triggered by mold sickness. I may have become infected in VA.
I began to have a film cover my eye and reduced my vision slowly and became irritated.
A painful epididymal cyst in my testicle was diagnosed. I now suspect this was a mold spore.
Alternaria was clearly visible in the home. I've read cases where dogs testicles have swollen from exposure. It infected my left eye.
I began to develop a ringworm type rash on the face and body.
3 months slow incremental dosing of Nascent Iodine to 15mg daily cleared the cyst, bran fog, cluster headaches, restored energy, and has rejuvenated my thyroid.
Terbinafine 500mg bid /15d was tried initially and attacked a fungal infection in a muscle behind the left eye. I felt it working one hour after taking it as the muscle behind my left eye tingled and itched.
Itraconazole 100mg /11d helped clear the 'film' that was forming on the cornea.
From the start I appeared to have very few isolated spots of tinea versicolor on arms.
A few subcutaneous nodules appear from time to time taking weeks to resolve much like in Sporotrichosis yet I dont believe it is.
Unlike S.schenckii which causes Sporo there is no suppuration in the forearms and these do not progress to pustules nor gummata in the arms.
There appears to be a hematogenous spread from these hard yet painless nodules in the forearm to soft painless enlargements appearing like stops on a metro rail map within swollen veins. I would guess these are near lymph nodes.
After this first course I saw an ophthalmologist who stain tested the eyes for fungal infection and completed a thorough examination with a slit lamp. I believe at the time there was still candida in the eyes which he some how missed. It was likely small or I developed it shortly after.
I should have seen him before the Itraconazole but the timing just worked out this way.
There is 5-10% permanent damage, to the ciliary muscle. The left eye is not able to focus as accurately as it did before.
I will attempt the Bates method to restore the ciliary muscle and improve my focus.
Doxycycline 100mg bid used would later prove his diagnosis of allergies as incorrect.
I discovered Fluconazole had better penetration in the eye. It is over the counter here. It cleared all skin rash and resolved floaters. The final problem of a stationary foreign object on the cornea resolved and I was ecstatic.
Combining Fluconazole with Nystatin pulsing helped kill the excess yeast in the gut (herx city). Combining it with Doxy pulsing restored the sclera from red to white rather rapidly.
Doxycycline is known to make Fluconazole go from fungistatic to fungicidal.

6 months of continuous daily use of Fluconazole 400 mg and cured, or so I thought....
Oil pulling with ozonated Coconut Oil and Xylitol quickly and effectively arrested and cleared a failed dental implant infection that was beginning to hurt.
I suspect P. Acnes bacteria which normally resides on the skin traveled through a dental implant that I got in my 20's and caused the chronic pain in my spine that I have suffered from for 28 years. While I treat mold, lyme, and Morgellons symptoms I have also begun taking Augmentin tid for 100 days as was outlined in this clinical study:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3631045/
I cannot recommend dental implants. I plan to have remaining ones removed.
