I am hoping this file opens. It is a video of a sample from prostatic fluid under 1600x or more magnification in phase contrast mode.
It is a macrophage which is infected with what I believe is mycoplasma, but some may argue it is spirochetes developing. This is just a beginning stage. These things grow before your very eyes.
It is the disease, and from here it goes on to wreck havoc throughout the body. In my case, it transfers immunity to certain protozoa. Within the cell you can see oocysts from som other mystery protozoa which looks like T. vaginalis in trophozoite form. Although, it is way too small for the average.

I don't have movies, but I started drawing pictures of my "gremlins". They occur in many forms, but are invisible, have great power like electricty and can inflict pain and other unpleasant sensations. I can't see them You can't see them. I can feel them. Some are; little electric fuzzy worms; multi legged creatures with needle tipped legs; tiny spears flung by an invisible wind at my body, as I were naked...stinging my skin(ever been under a helicopter?) I'm trying to start a web page, but my internet connection is 21k and every time a bug flies infront of the microwave antenna receiver...I lose the connection and have to sit five minutes to reconnect...sometimes that won't work. Gremlins....evil creatures. I can see how uneducated people, or those with a mental illness or disability could truly believe bugs are living on their skin.

Are you also a hobby chemist? I saw a very cool documentary last night on the blue blood of the horseshoe crab.
Their blood is blue because they use copper instead of hemogloben. Their immune systems are incredible.
Medical folks already use their blood to test iv drugs because they will jump on bacteria like white on rice and destry it.
They are also endangered now. According to the show, one fishery down south somewhere figured out that they made good eel bait and they depleted the population by 70 percent before anyone new what was going on.
I nodded off before the end of the show but it looked like a species of birds called red knots were going to go extinct because they relied on eating enough horseshoe crab eggs to make it to their breeding grounds in the arctic.
Anyway if you could go ahead and find the cure that would be great.
