Hi everyone. I have been really busy researching the problems that are generally associated with the chronic infections like lyme disease.
My experience has been, that fungus is one of the main culprits I have run into.
I have seen stachybotrysosis [unsure of spelling since the term is so recent]
That is black mold, that has become parasitic in the host's system. It causes a whole lot of problems, like sever allergies to everything.
I have also discovered oomceteosis, something that is not currently known to cause infection in humans In one case I had, the patient developed food sensitivities so bad, they slowly starve.
There are several parasites I have not even been able to identify, of the protozoan class, and I think I have run into parasitic algae.
In all cases, these are normally opportunistic to the host genetic catalog [HLA type].
So, the variety of opportunistic pathogens\parasites is huge in my opinion. I think it is a result of farming practices, and agricultural use of chemicals\drugs.
I get a lot of reports from those working in agriculture, about the types of infections they are seeing in the animals [remember, we eat them].
Horses, for example, are loosing the battle with helminths and other parasitic infections. The drugs traditionally used are becoming less and less effective. The same drugs, in different forms are used to treat humans.
The fish stocks are another problem, and are being subject to infections not seen before.

So, as you can see, a depressing situation is developing.
There is hope though. There are some interesting advancements being made in therapeutic peptides technology.
It is far off, where clinical use is concerned, but worth the investigation.
Since my own research will slowly evolve in this direction, I will try and keep everyone updated in this regard. Microw

Hey Microw,

Thanks for the update. I just posted a link the other day about peptide therapy...VGV, I think it is called. Has already tested well in animals and is now in stages of FDA approval and human testing.

Yeah, we have essentially ruined our food supply. So sad...The dollar, euro, etc. always wins to the detriment of society in general.

Thanks for reporting and for the work that you do, much appreciated.

Really interesting! Thank you.

I have been suspecting this. Do you think it's intentional? How about those chemtrails? Most doctors here know nothing about parasites. That's the last thing they suspect.

There are several anti-malarial drugs made by combining artemesia & an antibiotic that are completely unavailable here.

I noticed my poor cat got some kind of weird infection on his neck. Could be a bacteria, fungus, or parasite? A big chunk of his fur came off. I've never seen anything like this in 40+ years of living with cats...

I'm sure it happens. Now, I see there's a field in animal medicine for dermatology. It seems to be a common thing these days.

Where Have You Been??? We missed you. LOL

Is that a new name for Morgellons?

Do you have any idea why we have not got a answer from KP on the CDC's quest for answers?

It appears we are all in the same boat. But you are right. It is not just us humans it is our whole eco.

Hi Everyone. Thanks for the kind words.
The Morgellons thing is a form of quorum sensing very similar to fungus, in fact, I have found confirmed pathogenic fungus in the 3 cases I studied. I also seen unusual chemical crystals which are red, blue, green, clear, and black. I one case I think there may have been C. Pulmoni.
It was strange, and not like the normal morphology of a worm. I cannot confirm it. Microw

You're a researcher? If you think fungus/mold might be involved in chronic Lyme, you might want to consider these...

The Effect of Microwave Radiation on Fruit Mold

Do EMFs Affect Yeast Growth?

http://www.usc.edu/CSSF/History/2006/Projects/J1310.pdf

I don't know about anyone else here, but I was using a cordless phone heavily around the time I was diagnosed with Lyme. Also, several cell phone antennas went up in my neighborhood around that time, too.

Is it just me, or are we seeing fewer Morgollon's posts than we did a few years ago? If so, did something quietly change in agriculture or whatever is thought to possibly cause this, or are people just finding their own Morgollon's forums and talking about it elsewhere?

I'm sure using sewage sludge or run off water to fertilize crops is not helping either...

And - all the genetically modified plants for food crops...

Then there's the bee die off. They still don't really know what's causing colony collapse disorder.

Dr. Tullio Simoncini is using baking soda to cure cancer. He believes the tumors are related to candida.

So, much of this could be due to bizarre thing in our environment that don't have any natural checks or balances - like parasites, fungal issues, toxic chemicals, etc.

It's good to hear about someone with an open mind to research these things.

BTW - I'm using some tea tree oil in vasoline to put on my cat's neck. Seems to be helping. Just in case anyone has this problem with their pet.

Thanks for Posting and I miss your posts as well.
Love your research..!

I so think your on the right path and I wish things would move faster. SO many unidentified things going on and so little answers..

I do feel sad when I read your title though.

Losing the battle. It feels that way even though I do not want to believe it is true.

I hope then movie FOOD Inc will help shift ideas in our consuming and consumer demand. As well I hope that the producers will react and we will get on a better track of producing food and meat and the the whole system needs to shift.

I think we are at that point where eveyone knows it and we are trying to find ways to change it but it is a slow curve to make that turn around the corner.

WE will get there.. I have faith..

At least for our children and grandchildren time..

FOr now we have to try to Treat us who have been contaminated and try to get us feeling better.

Since abx are not working as well, finding new inventive and more effective methods is important too..

What are your ideas for treatment options that are most affective?

Kinda off topic, but when I adopted a cat from the rescue league a couple of years ago, she had awful allergies to the point of scratching her neck and face raw--think hamburger head.

The vet wanted us to bring her in monthly for a steroid shot--ugh! Although the shots temporarily helped, I didn't feel getting monthly steroid shots was the way to go for her to get her health back.

We switched her to an all raw diet for 6 months--her body basically detoxed--she looked horrid for the first 2 to 3 months while the toxins left the body via the skin. We then found a dry food specifically formulated for allergies by being processed very minimally--she can thankfully tolerate it.

She also took homeopathic gunpowder which dried up the scabs--any time she breaks out now--which is very rare--we give her the homeopathic meds, and she clears right up.

She is doing great now--has been allergy free, steroid free, and healthy for over a year! She is a totally different cat from when we adopted her--timid, shy, suffering to frisky, coat gleaming, playful, healthy, and happy.

So to make this post relevant to the thread, I believe the food processing and supply has been destroyed and is truly making us (and our animals) sick on many levels.

Eating organic and grass-fed meat is very important for our health and really has become a necessity not an extravagance.
