These are remarkably hardy creatures. While they prefer to inhabit moist soil, they're capable of living in snow and can reproduce at temperatures as low as 40°F.

MORGELLONS

Mysterious skin disorder characterized by blemish sores and crawling sensations on and under the skin. Morgellons disease is not widely recognized as a medical diagnosis, however, disease control centers are investigating the condition, which they refer to as unexplained dermopathy.

Morgellons disease has been in every state in the U.S. and various countries around the world. Most cases are reported in clustered areas, such as, Florida, Texas, California, and New York.

Many doctors and researchers know little about Morgellon disease.

The commonly question asked, “ Are Morgellons contagious?” remains a mystery.

HISTORY OF MORGELLONS

The term "Morgellons disease", was first used in 1674 by an English doctor named Sir Thomas Browne. He used the term to describe what he called "black hairs" that were found emerging from skin legions found in children. Although the term first used by Sir Thomas Browne is the same name used today to describe what the Morgellons Research Foundation claims to be the same signs and symptoms it is not thought to be the same disorder but is merely used to describe a set of symptoms that are so similar that the same name can be applied to both.

WHY DON’T DOCTORS BELIEVE ME?

The knowledge of Morgellons Disease is extremely new. While the condition has existed for countless years, it has not been formally studied until recently. While there have been numerous articles and journals printed that speak of Morgellons Disease, the treatments and diagnoses are still considered theoretical. For this reason, many doctors have yet to be informed about the disease and those that have heard about it, just don’t know how to treat it yet. As with any emerging condition, it takes time to find the answers.

If suspected to have Morgellons or any type of Skin Parasite, always treat the environment.- clothes- homes- drink purified or distilled water- use sulfur based or shea butter soap- treat mattress- laundry room- throw rugs- carpets
