Mysterious Morgellons

The Mystery of Morgellons
26-Jun-2006

People are really suffering

We wrote a story over a year ago about a mysterious disease which is affecting people primarily in California and Florida. Then we found out that this may not be a real disease. It could also be the strange skin disease we reported on two years ago. Now KTVU.com reports that while most physicians are still skeptical about it, one scientist is beginning to take Morgellons seriously.

Sufferers report extreme itching, then fibers ooze out of open lesions on their skin, accompanied by uncontrollable muscle twitching. The symptoms are being reported by over three thousand people, nationwide. In Oklahoma, researcher Randy Wymore has assembled a medical team to get to the bottom of this malady, once and for all. He says that early reports that the extrusions from skin sores were textile fibers are "just not true, to be perfectly blunt about it." He thinks they are evidence that the disease somehow causes these substances to form inside the body and says, "We know there's something going on here. [Patients] are not delusional."

Epstein-Barr, the name of the sydrome that makes patients feel tired and vaguely ill, used to be thought of as a form of hypochondria, but now a virus for Epstein-Barr has recently been discovered.

Here's something else that sufferers know is real: The debilitating headaches known as migraines, which can put them out of commission for hours, or even days. Pain medicines don't work well against them. Migraine sufferers are told to avoid certain foods, like red wine, but that often doesn't help much either. Now there's a machine that can "zap" away the pain.
