This website has grown so large that in order to see the transforming impact that our protocol is having in the lives of Morgellons sufferers and their families, one must now wade through a massive volume of information.
Therefore, we decided to create a special place that is dedicated to sharing medical updates, progress reports, and encouraging stories from those who are having their health restored. The posts shown here are unsolicited and unedited, and are taken from our own forum. They appear in order of their historical appearance.
The person who invests an hour or two to review this collection of posts will notice an emerging pattern of transformation here. Many arrive here in a condition of hopelessness and despair, often isolated and estranged even from their loved ones. They find here a place of safety and compassion, a place of learning and inspiration, a place of encouragement and admonition to "First Do No Harm".
They devour the information available here and begin the process of improving their daily choices as they take back responsibility for their health. They begin to first stabilize, then to improve their health to a place where they are functional and productive again.
Their Hope restored, and "having their life back again", they begin the process of identifying what specific challenges remain and they may venture off to explore new interests or opportunities.
One thing should be perfectly clear from those who have reported improvement; they have all consistently stated that they have diligently stayed on the entire protocol.
The first three posts are without a doubt the longest, but they contain vital information that will give you a better understanding of how and why the protocol works and what one can expect when you have your herxheimer (detox) reaction.
You will find that the reading pace quickens thereafter. Each post or thread of posts is separated by a horizontal line. Sometimes threads were included to capture an original thought or train of thought in its entirety.
This testimonial page will be updated regularly. Anyone wishing to share encouragement and Hope may submit their story via email to:

Maribeth N, Nurse Practitioner2/12/2009
6:11:21 PM Mel,
Who would have guessed, that after all the dead ends and abandonment by traditional health care, (except for the compassionate 'Gem' you encouraged me to see, Dr.Shannon Zamboni, with her open mind and willingness to help), that I would finally be here, seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Most importantly, I've had something returned to me that I thought I'd lost, HOPE. I thank you, my friend.
With that said:
To all of you fellow Morgellon sufferers, my intention now is to validate the sincerety of my friend, Mel. Please bear with me, as I may get a little wordy. I have a lot to say.
The lake where we live is quite isolated. When I couldn't resolve a worsening skin problem I had, I Googled M.D.s in Reno, NV, to get some help. I came across the Reno Gazette's story on 'The Mysterious Skin Disease'. I didn't like what I read, but I knew without a doubt what I was dealing with was Morgellons. (Thank you Reno Gazette.)
Well, there you go, I knew I wasn't crazy, though two Dermotolgists (Psychologist wanna-be's) told me so, as they stopped further investigation of my skin problem. Morgellon's awareness was in it's earliest stage, but I was able to connect with Mary Lietro, from the Morgellon Research webb site. She gave me Mel's phone number. This began a relationship of mutual support, exchange of information and contacts, (and yes, I took horse pills, too), but best of all, emotional help to ease the pain of despair.
My grandest message to all of you, is what we shared at the deepest level. Find a cure, and get the word out. That is what Mel is doing now, no other hidden agenda exists. Otherwise, I wouldn't be writing this.
After Mel was sure of his own personal success with the treatment he is recommending, he shared this with me, But, before I started, I did my own research. The skeptic that I am, facing an unknown disease process outcome, could not allow a waste of TIME.
Morgellons is not a skin disease, it is a fungal colonization and once on board its opportunistic host, it developes a host/reservoir relationship.
The organism's charecteristic make-up so closely resembles our own cellular identity, it is diffult for our own immune system to identify.
With the increasing Morgellon colony numbers, there is a spiraling-down of our ability to fight it off. In the gastrointestinal system, you end up with an unbalanced normal flora, malabsorption, and decreased vitamin synthesis, essential for a strong immune system and brain function.
At the skin level, the sores provide portals for further colonization and a resulting alteration of the skin's normal flora by destroying the competing 'good' bacteria. This further compromises your first line of defense, the skin. You become more of a target for further invasion of this fungus.
I have included this information, because it was what I considered, when I evaluated Mel's treatment plan. Do I think it's a good plan, and do I believe a cure is possible? YOU BETCHA!
I am two weeks into his regimine. I acquired the Bactrim and Limbrell from my personal Doctor, (thank you, Shannon), and the Thymus Glandular Support, Molecula Silver and MMS on-line. I can not tell you, that I am cured. But, I can tell you that I am seeing initial suttle improvement and changes that tell me I am heading in the right direction. I know in my heart, that I will be back to tell you, I am cured. In fact, I will be screaming it loudly.
Mel, I thank you again, and again, and again, from my heart. Yes, my friend, the word is out and it is for all of us.
LOVE,
Maribeth |
Reflections on Your ProtocolJohn B -
3/4/2009
9:05:19 PM
Hi Mel,
As you requested, here are my thoughts on your protocol as well as suggestions for improvement and long term effectiveness. As you know, I am not a physician and do not presume here to dispense medical advice or treatment, but I will share with you my opinions based on the facts you have shared with me about your experiences and the admittedly limited research I have done on the various components of your protocol.
First of all, let me affirm that in my opinion, Morgellon's Disease is real, it is pathologically verifiable, and it is physically and psychologically debilitating. I believe that the fierce and unrelenting nature of Morgellon's symptoms are more than enough to cause depression, anxiety, panic disorders and all manner of psychological instability, and the standard diagnosis of 'paranoid delusions' is both a medical copout and a product of the arrogance and ignorance of so-called modern medicine.
I believe that at its core, Morgellons is an immune deficiency syndrome that allows infestation of the skin with harmful bacteria, fungi, parasites and other opportunistic pathogens that would otherwise be held in check in persons with a healthy and balanced immune response. Therefore, successful short term and long term treatment demands a multifaceted approach such as the one you have undertaken to lower overall infection (immune system burden), control inflammation and to restore integrity, strength and balance to the immune response.
My thoughts on the products listed as they appear in your protocol:
Molecula Silver
Although frankly the scientific explanation provided for this product is somewhat lacking (its production is apparently a closely guarded secret), there is no question that silver ions absolutely contain powerful antimicrobial properties; antibiotic, antifungal, and antiviral.
Because of its much smaller particle size, 'nanonized' or 'angstrum' silver reportedly has cellular absorption advantages over larger particulate products, but in my experience, even colloidal silver works well. Prior to the introduction of 'modern' antibiotics it was used extensively in hospitals.
From what I can gather, Molecula Silver appears to be the result of an process analogous to a homeopathic remedy in which typically an aqueous solution containing one target mineral, say sulfur, is diluted over and over until it reaches dilutions that are so small that there are literally no atoms of sulfur left, only their 'residual energy' that was left behind in the water. As we know, homeopathic remedies have a proven track record, having demonstrated powerful and consistent effects on the human body for centuries.
So not having any personal experience with the product, I will certainly not dismiss it solely because it is represented to deliver silver energy or essence. Energetics is a concept foreign to modern medicine, and we still have much to learn. If they have indeed succeeded in improving upon the performance of ionic and colloidal silver, then they have a powerful and authentic natural medicine on their hands.
In fact, I am actually about to personally put Molecula Silver to the test, as I am battling a rather pernicious and opportunistic bug that my daughter brought home and which has temporarily taken up residence in my lungs. As I refuse to resort to chemical antibiotics, I will let you know how it turns out. I also plan to undergo a course of treatment with MMS in the near future in order to become better acquainted with its properties and use.
Back to silver... the antiseptic properties of silver are not yet clearly understood, but they are certainly acknowledged by pretty much everyone but the drug companies that make synthetic, side effect laden antimicrobials. Silver ions have increasingly found their way into widespread use in industrial, manufacturing, medical equipment and consumer applications, especially with the recent emergence of nanotechnology.
The most likely contribution of the silver to the success of your protocol is in terms of silver's broad spectrum antimicrobial support, and the resulting overall reduction to your immune system burden. Assuming the product is as powerful as advertised, three potential cautions here:
1. With long term use, supplementation with probiotics (Essential Flora) would be well advised to make sure that adequate populations of healthy bacteria are maintained in the gut. I know that many people claim that silver ions are highly selective, targeting only pathogenic species, but since we don't know that for sure and probiotics can only help, why take a chance? I know you are already taking Essential Flora or MagniFlora Seven, but wanted to point out here why it is so urgently needed (there are also other potent antimicrobials in the protocol).
2. It is reported that Molecula Silver is high in nitrates. The website points to some recent studies indicating that dietary nitrates are harmless (sounds like research funded by Jimmy Dean and Oscar Meyer). Based on the overwhelming majority of studies that have been published to date, long term exposure to excessive nitrates is associated with increased cancer risk. But how much is too much? According to your results, and the results of others who have provided equally impressive testimonials, it has apparently not become an issue.
3. With widespread dieoff of fungal, bacterial and parasitic infections comes resulting widespread toxicity. The liver and other detoxification organs must not only deal with the inherent toxicity of your drug treatments, but also the toxic agents generated in the dieoff of pathogens (often characterized as a 'healing crisis'). This is only a temporary issue that presumably exists as a necessary side effect of treatment.
Targeted detoxification support will improve quality of life, especially early on in the process of recovery. At any rate, I am glad that you are now taking Liver CS Plus to support your liver and other detoxification organs.
MMS (Chlorine Dioxide)
Chlorine dioxide is a widely used antiseptic agent for water purification. Its use is preferred over chlorine because it is a highly effective bactericidal agent at much lower concentrations than chlorine, and it appears to be much less reactive with organic matter (thereby lowering the accumulation of harmful byproducts). Referred to by some as a form of 'stabilized oxygen', it is hailed by many as a safe and wide spectrum antimicrobial supplement and oxidizer of free radicals.
A consensus of opinion has not yet been reached as to the mechanism of bactericidal action of chlorine dioxide, but it is commonly used in slaughterhouses to control bacterial growth without bleaching the meat (excessive oxidation) or imparting undesirable (chlorine or its derivatives) odors. Unlike chlorine (hypochlorite solution) which reportedly works by interfering with bacterial glucose metabolism and requires a 150ppm solution to reduce bacterial populations by 90%, chlorine dioxide has been shown to be equally effective at 5 to 25 ppm.
Also unlike chlorine, chlorine dioxide is not fat soluble... another encouraging factor since chlorine is known to react with fatty tissues to form carcinogenic compounds.
Rather than targeting bacterial glucose metabolism (cellular energy systems), chlorine dioxide appears to target protein synthesis capabilities of bacterial cells, thereby halting (rather than diminishing) reproductive capabilities. Along with stabilized oxygen's apparent selective targeting of anaerobic species, this may partially explain why it requires much lower doses to be effective, and why if used properly, it appears to be much less toxic.
In view of your experience and the testimony of countless others who ardently believe in the healing powers of MMS, there certainly appears to be mounting anecdotal evidence for its potential as a natural medicine. However, it also appears to have very significant potential for toxicity if abused or mistakenly overdosed. For that reason, I would not sell MMS without full disclosure of its potential toxicity and I would not characterize it as harmless to an ignorant public that generally assumes that if a little is good, a lot is better. Good advice when taking it would be to take it slow and pay attention to your body's messages.
At first I wondered if using both the MMS and Bactrim to lower your infection load might be overkill, but based on your experiences in adjusting your doses etc., one would have to assume that the sulfa drug may be targeting certain pathogens that the MMS does not reach, and vice versa.
Bactrim
Bactrim contains a combination of sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim, two separate antibiotics that treat different types of infection caused by a broad spectrum of bacteria. Among other things, Bactrim is approved to treat ear infections, urinary tract infections, bronchitis, traveler's diarrhea, and Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia.
Known as a sulfa drug, Bactrim is reportedly highly toxic; so toxic that it made the famous Dr. Douglass' '10 Worst Drugs in Medicine' list for its alleged ability to trash critical organs and organ systems in the body.
Among its numerous published side effects are difficulty breathing, folic acid deficiency (and related anemia), sunburn sensitivity, allergies, asthma, stomach and headache, watery or bloody diarrhea, kidney stones, muscle pain or weakness, fever, and finally itching, clay colored stools, dark urine, and jaundice (all signs of liver or kidney damage).
Since Bactrim reportedly works by affecting folic acid metabolism, I would think you would want to add some folic acid to this protocol... especially if taking a sub-label dose of Complete Thymic Formula (the par dose of six captabs contains 400 mcg of folic acid).
If you dare, file this one under the 'whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger' category. Ironically, sometimes a little bit of poison can be a good thing. This is the underlying premise for radiation and chemotherapy. It is a very good thing that you are now protecting your liver with Liver CS Plus.
On the positive side, if you go on the assumption that Morgellons involves chronic immune suppression and widespread infection, Bactrim has the power to wipe out virtually the entire battle field! As they say, desperate times call for desperate measures.
Speaking of battle fields, in your body, the battle field that matters most is the intestinal wall... all the more reason that you have added MagniFlora Seven to your regimen. Cautions (1) and (3) above apply even more here.
Limbrel (Flavocoxid)
As prescription drugs go, this one is unusual in that it is actually classified as a medicinal food. It contains phytonutrients from two herbal extracts: flavonoids from blue skullcap (scutellaria baicalensis) and flavans from acacia catechu.
These natural compounds are from a class of compounds known as polyphenols, which are renowned for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Many of the health benefits of colored fruits and vegetables, red wine, and green tea are directly related to their flavonoid content.
Limbrel is known as a dual action anti-inflammatory because it is thought to inhibit the action of both COX-2 and 5-LOX inflammatory enzymes. Investigated and approved specifically for the dietary management of the metabolic processes underlying symptoms of osteoarthritis, the most likely beneficial role of Limbrel in your protocol is in reducing inflammation, possibly a factor in helping get your runaway immune response under control.
Non-synthetic pharmaceuticals like this one are rare, and its noted lack of cautions or side effects are therefore no coincidence... although they apparently could not resist the urge to add totally unnecessary toxic dyes (FD&C Blue #1, and FD&C Green #3)... presumably to make the pills look cool.
Dr. Burgstiner's Original Complete Thymic Formula
After having reviewed my entire website, you understand how critical and foundational thymus gland support is to optimizing immune system strength and integrity. Suffice it to say that it is the work of the thymus gland to not only help organize and orchestrate the battle plans, but to help restore order and peace when the battle is over. Thymus gland support is absolutely essential to both short term and long term success in dealing with the challenges of any chronic illness.
In Summary
It is interesting that in reviewing your experience, part of what you have done included using manageable doses of toxic chemicals to create an inhospitable environment in your body to reduce the population of immune offenders. It is also interesting that you intuitively reduced the normal dose of the Complete Thymic Formula during this time, which lowered your exposure to immune stimulants and antioxidants.
Perhaps what has occurred is not unlike spiritual rebirth, for the scriptures tell us that things must die before they can be born again. Now that you have been delivered from the beast, so to speak, at some point your focus will shift from the necessary and temporary self destructive (chemo approach) to detoxification and restoring full health and vitality.
The more you embrace restoration of integrity to your immune system and strengthening of critical health pathways such as digestion, assimilation and detoxification, the more sense it makes to fully embrace the Burgstiner Wellness Protocol.
For me, the suffering of Morgellons patients paints a dramatic picture of how Hell is described in God's word; sudden onset, constant, inescapable torment, intense isolation in darkness... and for Morgellons sufferers, in the face of abandonment by 'modern medicine'... the perceived removal of all hope for eternity.
I praise God that through your life, your faith, your determination and your protocol, truth is being revealed, He is being glorified and He is demonstrating even now His authority over sickness and death. May God bless you richly as you endeavor to help birth hope and new life in others who are suffering.
All of this really lights my fire because after all, this is what Logos Nutritionals is all about... 'Bringing Hope to Life'!

John B. YOU are a blessing!!!
Fabbbbbbbulous article! Way to go!!
I am off to look up definition of 'The Herxheimer Reaction - Feeling worse before feeling better' to post a bit about that. This is so everyone will not be frightened while their bodies are going through this detoxification. I also believe the support systems you mentioned while detoxing are 'VERY' important-I like Burgstiner Wellness Protocol found on http://www.logosnutritionals.com
Thanks my brother for standing in strength and the truth of our Precious Lord!
Bless you

5:21:34 PM In one of John B's posts he mentioned '3.dieoff of pathogens (often characterized as a 'healing crisis').
It is my belief that to really heal - our bodies must get rid of years of toxic build up. I wanted to post the following wonderful article which explains this process very clearly. I believe if you read the whole article it will encourage you immensely in your journey to health and wellness.
God Bless you richly with all that is Him,

The Healing Crisis
Date:09/29/2003 By: Jon Barron
The Healing Crisis was originally observed while administering antibiotics during the treatment of syphilis, but was later identified during the treatment of other illness and in a wide variety of natural healing programs. It is characterized by a temporary increase in symptoms during the cleansing or detox process. Reactions may be mild or they may be severe. You should expect it and work with it. It is an indicator that the cleanse is working. There are several causes.
The body must go through an elimination process to achieve good health. There will be ups and downs. You do not go immediately from disease to good health. This elimination process is what we call the 'healing crisis.' The healing crisis is the result of every body-system, in concert, working to eliminate waste products through all elimination channels and set the stage for regeneration. The end result: old tissues are replaced with new.
There are three distinct categories of Cleansing Reaction:
When any treatment or cleansing program causes a large scale die-off of bacteria, a significant amount of endotoxins (toxins within the bacteria itself) are released into the body. The more bacteria present, and the stronger their endotoxins, the stronger the cleansing reaction.
When any treatment or detox causes the organs of the body (particularly the liver, which is a storehouse of drug and poison residues) to release their stored poisons and toxins, a cleansing reaction may occur.
Any program, such as fasting or the use of weight loss herbs which causes a rapid breakdown of fat cells (which are a storehouse for toxins), can be accompanied by a detox reaction.
Specifically, we can now see that a variety of cleanses and/or products can initiate a detox reaction.
Category 1
Intestinal Cleansing and Detox Programs can obviously trigger a die-off of bad bacteria in the intestinal tract and colon.
Likewise, use of the probiotics will cause a die-off of bad intestinal bacteria (as much as 3 1/2 lbs worth) as new beneficial bacteria take their place.
Digestive enzymes when first introduced can literally eat up colonies of bad bacteria, thereby releasing their endotoxins.
And use of immune enhancers and pathogen destroyers can produce die-off, not only in the intestinal tract, but throughout the entire body.
Category 2
The liver is the primary processing and storage organ for drug residues and poisons in the body. The primary purpose of the Liver/Gallbladder detox program is to flush those toxins out of the body. The bottom line is that this makes the use of this program one of THE most important for improving your Baseline of Health, but also the program most likely to cause a healing crisis.
Use of an herbal blood cleansing program can likewise initiate a Herxheimer reaction
Category 3
Rapid weight loss, when fasting for example, can also produce a healing crisis as toxins previously lodged in the fat cells are released into the blood stream
Symptoms
The healing crisis will usually bring about past conditions in whatever order the body is capable of handling at that time. People often forget the diseases or injuries they have had in the past, but are usually reminded during the crisis. Reactions may include:
Increased joint or muscle pain
Headaches
Diarrhea
Extreme fatigue and/or its opposite, sleeplessness
Nausea
Sinus congestion
Fever (usually low grade) and/or chills
Frequent urination and/or urinary tract discharges
Drop in blood pressure
Skin eruptions, including: boils, hives, and rashes.
Note: skin eruptions are often misdiagnosed as allergic reactions, resulting in the premature cessation of the cleansing program.
Cold or flu-like symptoms
You may think that you actually feel worse or that the treatment is not working at all during a cleanse. Do not despair. These are all signs that your treatment is working and that your body is going through the process of cleaning itself of impurities, toxins and imbalances.
Such reactions are temporary and can occur immediately -- or within several days, or even several weeks, of a detox. Symptoms usually pass within 1-3 days, but on rare occasions can last several weeks.
If you are suffering from a major illness, the symptoms you experience during the healing crisis may be identical to the disease itself. A cleansing, purifying process is underway, and stored wastes are in a free-flowing state. Sometimes discomfort during the healing crisis is of greater intensity than when you were developing the chronic disease. This may explain why there may be a brief flare-up in one's condition.
Often the crisis will come after you feel your very best. In fact, most people feel a surge of energy during the first few days of a cleanse. It is at that point that your body dumps toxins into the blood stream for elimination. Thus the healing crisis. Do not be upset. It means your body is eliminating the toxins. Go as slowly as your body needs to so that your elimination is gradual and comfortable.
With a more serious condition there may be many small crises to go through before the final one is possible. Everything must be considered and given its proper place in the build-up to a healing crisis. You should expect it and work with it.
Easing Your Way Through the Healing Crisis
Drink plenty of fresh water (especially water), juices, and herbal teas to flush the body of toxins.
Use colon stimulation formula to make sure that you are eliminating waste promptly. Symptoms frequently disappear immediately after a good bowel movement.
Use ground flax seed daily to absorb toxins and to help speed their transit through the system.
On occasion, a good enema or colon-irrigation can provide relief.
Sometimes, rest is the best therapy.
And, on rare occasions, a reduction of the dosage or temporary cessation may be required.

1:47:41 PM Please tell me Mel how long did you take the Bactrim in your protocol? Are you still taking the Bactrim. Also are you symptom free now? How long sonce you started your protocol did it take before symtom free?I just couldn't get the Limbrel. But everything else I am getting better June 11, 2009 it will be one year since I acquired Morgellons. Borax and epsom salt baths work great. Your regimen helps thanks for sharing! |
Mel's Morgellons Update (May 5, 2009)Hello Everyone,
I have been giving lots of thought as to how to present my current feelings on Morgellons to all of you. First and foremost, according to my last Dr.'s visit 4/24/09, I remain in good health and symptom free - since Dec. 2008. My recent blood work came back comparable to my blood work from 2004, prior to contacting Morgellons.
When starting the web site at the request of my close friend Rick, as well as the news paper reporter Frank Mullen Jr., I did not have the amount of knowledge about Morgellons that I do today. I was very excited to share my findings with other Morgellons sufferers because I thought that I had discovered a cure (which is obvious from the site's name).
After four months of interaction with many brilliant people including medical doctors, nurses, scientists, chemists, naturopaths and homeopaths, I have come to the understanding, by the nature of the disease, that there is no quick and easy way to beat Morgellons. We have to methodically support our bodies so they can take back control over their environment.
I have no plans to change the name of the site. it may be taking a strong stand, but it is highly effective for reaching out to those who are suffering with a message of hope and with vital information that can change lives.
I have decided to stay on my protocol for a total of fifteen months (Sept.2008-Dec.2009) in order to completely eradicate all the virus and fungus parts of Morgellons. I will then stop all medications, but not my vitamins. I imagine by then, we will know if this is truly a cure.
I know for sure that I share a protocol that has restored my health and given me back my life. This is not a complicated protocol, and it is not very expensive. It is my prayer that all of you enjoy the same amazing results that I have... symptom free for over 150 days now.
May God bless us all,
Mel |
Deb25/6/2009
7:27:27 PM To All,
I have now completed 1 week of Mel's protocol (short a few days on the Limbrel)and I am cautiously optimistic. Physically, it was a bit of a rollor coaster week, some days better than others, The biggest change is the amount of fibers I am ABLE to pull out of my face, neck, back and arms. They are coming out in droves. I have never been able to pull them out like this. I initially had more spots appear, but now they are starting to scab up. I have itched more on occasion, but I have been able to pull out many of the white organisms. More and more are coming to the surface (I believe this is a VERY good sign).
Mentally I am even more thankful for! The 'fog' is starting to lift. My sense of humor is starting to return and most importantly of all, there is now hope for a 10 year relationship I have been in that was disintigrating rapidly!
If this proccess continues, I will be so very grateful to Mel!
With all this being said, I had tried many of the items Mel had mentioned, but individually. Mel hit the nail on the head (I am hoping) with his combo! I always felt it would be a combination of things that needed to be taken at the SAME time, but I couldn't quite get there.
Keep trucking and keep up the Hope

8:03:26 PM Hi Mel
Just to let know there are 4 people here following your protocol, primarily using the MMS, Molecula Silver, and 1 also using Bactrim. All 4 started within the last 2 months, and all are improving.
If there are others out there improving on the protocol, it would be great if they would give feed back, so those thinking of starting, will be encouraged to begin.
Thank you for this so very informative, caring site, I cannot imagine where those suffering with Morgellons would be without your help.

Deb 2,
The person using Bactrim has had Morgellons longer than the others, about 1 year, it is more established in her, (some lesions and fibres), and so she wants to use all the products recommended by Mel in his protocol.
The others have more recent symptoms 4-6 months, and started treating early with borax/peroxide baths, and later switched to MMS baths. I think this helps to rid the body of some of the more superficial disease signs(those just under the skin), and thus there has been little in the way of fibres, and no open lesions.
Oral treatment with MMS and Molecula silver started about 2 months ago, and all report improvement; it is very encouraging. |

Hello Everyone,
Welcome as always.
Yesterday it was decided by both JohnB and myself to repost his "extremely compelling information" post with a live link. This brillant young man,"Mr.Common Sense" has also been treating himself and is now symptom free. Please take the time to read his information. The more knowledge we have, the better prepared we are to beat Morgellons.
God bless you all,

Hi Mel, John and Mr. Common Sense
(and fellow "mite" sufferers),
Thanks so much for the update on the protocol.
I am so grateful to all of you gentlemen for your knowledgable information and explanation of what is going on with this condition.
I have been on the protocol for five months now and although feeling much better, I am still working on getting the "rice-like" critters or "biofilm" out of my skin. Would anyone know if this strange substance is a new parasite, a fungal reaction to the antibiotics or another stage of this disease?
I have gone from rashes, bites, some lesions, black specks and now to white "rice like" specks. It may be a phase of this affliction but not sure. Although I see improvement, these "specks" are persistant! (as many of you already know!)
Anyway, I continue to pray for us all for a complete and lasting recovery from this terrible disease. Thanks again for all you do and God Bless you all!

Pamela Mae9/24/2009
3:26:02 AM I would like to post the positives about my experience while being on this journey with all of you here.
1.I found for the first time that their was hope for this disease.The hope keeps rekindling with friends,intelligent advice and constant refocusing on 'I can get well,I can do this,I can I can I can'
2.I found a community of people I can talk to about Morgellons.I am a bit private sometimes so its been very healing to be able to share in this way.
3. I found I do not need to be humiliated any more by doctors and I can help others in the direction of finding Morgellons friendly practitioners for themselves(good feeling)
3.I found a sound definition of Morgellons and it reaffirmed that this multifaceted disease was not all in my mind.
4. Inch by inch I have slowly been reclaiming bits of my life. I have been loosing weight and feeling a little stronger every day.
5.I found sound scientifically valid research on the things involved with Morgellons.This took me out of the fearful frenzied pictures on the internet and the wild theories about space aliens in my blood.Please.
I have also learned SO SO much . So much. Don't you think when we are learning from scientifically sound data that we grow incredibility ?
6.For the first time in 15 years I can sleep at night.This is an extreme miracle.
7. I found growth as a person in being a determined advocate for all of us with this disease. This by watching the sheer determination of mel and seeing Johns kind and merciful steadfastness. And by joining in the lives of you here and feeling what you feel -crying with some,praying,and sometimes just a good laugh.
Thank you all for adding to my life and enlarging my sometimes selfish vision.
Thank you mel for hanging in there with the good and the bad.
Thanks John B. for all the research and commitment
Thanks to all of you with your sweet voices ..I think of you last thing at night and first thing in the morning...
Blessings my brothers and sisters - I hope this is all right- and in some small way in the days to come I can serve and bless you.
Because of Jesus great love,
Pamela Mae |
What can I do if I can't afford the whole protocol?Mel

Hiya All,
Welcome-as always!
This question was first asked on Sept 17th., and I have taken a long time in responding. We all have a private side to our being and may not wish to disclose every little detail about our personal lives.
This was a struggle for me, as it may well be for others. As evidenced in my bankruptcy appearance of October 1, 2009, in which the court appointed trustee dismissed my case.
I am not sure if she felt bad for me because the way I walk or because of the hundreds of visible scars on my neck. Nonetheless, when I got to my car, I cried like a baby, much as I am now as I reveal this to you all.
In life we all have choices, so this is what I did:
I stopped using my car, cut down use by 90% (gas is not going to get cheaper), and changed my diet completely. The diet change was healthy and saved me money as the wrong foods actually cost more.
I could then afford my medications and supplements. Remember, "If you do not have your health, you have nothing"!
I will not discuss this further, nor do I want your pity. I am healthy once again and I am sure with the big Guy's help, all will be well.
Toughen up, one must be brave to beat our disease!
God bless you all,
mel

Thank you Mel, that is very true. If we don't have our health- we have nothing! You are right! Thanks for sharing and God bless YOU. I agree we need to do all we can do to get well! We need to get rid of as many expenses as we can and use what money we do have wisely! Much love! Kim

Dear Mel,
I went through bankruptcy due to illness 10 years ago and felt profoundly humiliated at the time. More recently, I did not have the proper insurance for hospitalization so again, my inability to pay my medical bills has placed me back in the position of no credit worthiness. Living without money and not being able to work to earn it, is forcing me to have far greater faith in the spiritual realm as the source of my Supply. I am being forced to CHANGE the way I perceive the world. Ralph Waldo Emerson, an American philosopher said in his essay on Compensation, 'Such...is the natural history of calamity. The changes which break up at short intervals the prosperity of men are advertisements of a nature whose law is growth. Evermore is the order of nature to grow, and every soul is by this intrinsic necessity quitting its whole system of things, its friends and home and laws and faith, as the shellfish crawls out of its beautiful but stony case, because it no longer admits of its growth, and slowly forms a new house...But to us, in our lapsed estate, resting, not advancing, resisting, not cooperating with the divine expansion, this growth comes by shocks...'
Okay, that's enough philosophy. But for me, I am growing and learning so much because of this M experience. I am grateful to individuals like you who have had the courage to go public with your process to help so many others. I believe we are 'canaries in the mine' and that we will be helping so many others who will face this in the future. You give me hope. Thank you.

Dear Mel,
Your willingness to humble yourself so that others might be inspired provides Hope to a community that desperately needs it. The same source of courage and determination that led you out of this wilderness compels you now to serve others as they follow your lead.
Your unconditional love and concern for those fortunate enough to have been gathered here (not by accident)is evidenced by the sacrificial efforts you have consistently made on their behalf. It has truly been a blessing to witness what God is doing in and through your life. |

Mel and John,
the conference call was absolutely awesome. Thank you so much for putting it on. I know now why the aminos are so important, I do the Whole Foods Mixed Amino, it has them all in it.
Also, you guys did a great job running the call, really, very nicely done. What a wonderful service.
This kind of grass roots movement has been needed for so long.
I will alert my readers a few days before each call as a reminder before each call, that was thrilling.
Sorry if I seemed scatter brained, I was so wound up about the call. Anyway, if you ever want me to speak I will have a clear outline. ;)
Anyway, you just helped a ton of people, I hope many adopt your protocol and start getting better. Maybe between all the combined efforts of those involved (and there are many) we can begin to find a way out of this mess for most people.
We heard a few on the call say they have found their way out, I think this is just the beginning !!
Most Excellent ! |

The other evening when I went to turn out the light I looked down and my beautiful little Beta Fish 'Buddy' was floating on his side.
I am so sappy I started crying and saying 'oh no buddy please don't die!'
My next thought was 'how do you perfomr cpr on a fish?
I thought -'OK' I am giving the fish some MMS , it lives or dies .
I mixed a solution of 3 drops and 15 drops lemon(the whole time thinking )' will a fish be ok with lemon?'
I turned out the light and went to bed.
When I got up in the morning -first thing I looked at was Buddy.
He was swimming - happy as a lark, straight side up.
I could not believe my eyes.
Now, he is getting mms 1 or 2 times a day ,same dose.
And I now have one of those spectacular off the wall stories to tell that I always read and say 'REALLY?'
For what its worth - 'THE FISH LIVES!'
God Bless you,

In Jim Humbles book - part 1 on page 123 - It states that sodium chlorite was first used in 1985 in fish tanks to kill diseases on tropical fish. That was when he first heard of it.

Hiya All,
Welcome as always;
From where did these words come; What does this mean; How to make sure?
I first heard these words From Dr. Shannon Zamboni.
It means whenever you add any type of medicine or supplement to a protocol, that your doctor checks the book of medicines that explains how the different things will interact in your body.
Some of you have two or three doctors and you must make sure that you are not poisoning yourselves!
Ask one of your doctors to check all your meds to make sure you are doing no harm.
God Bless Each and Every One of You !!!!!!!

First I want to thank you all for the information. I have to admit, that I did not tell my girlfriend (Suzanne,is her name) that I was writing to anyone about this. I was just trying to find out as much as possible for myself so that I could help in anyway.
After reading all the great responses I had to let her in on what I had done. She would also like to thank you all for your responses. She is not as computer savy as I am so I do most of the typing.
I would like to tell you a little about how this all came about. Also she has been seeing a doctor at Dartmouth Hitchcock as we live in New Hampshire.
For many years, the house we live in would flood down in the basement, usually in the spring. And, every spring we would go down and try and clean it all up. There was usually about an inch of water through the whole basement and it's a fairly big basement, so there was a lot of water.
This is also where we keep the washer and dryer and there was a small room down there until recently but we have since removed it. We think this is where and when the problem started. I will also tell you (as I'm sure most of you know) it has taken its toll on our relationship but we have both come to terms with this and been much happier since.
Any way about two years ago is when things started to kind of change, she started getting sores on her body and it got worse and worse and it turns out she had shingles. So now we have alot of fungi in the basement from the flooding and open wounds from her shingles and whala, this thing.
She started to get very depressed and didnt want anyone to be around her (even me) for some time. She would isolate herself for weeks at a time. Most of her brothers ans sisters and even me at times thought maybe she was on drugs or something. It was horrible.
Im kind of skipping alot because as most of you know it's really hard to understand what is going on through all of this. The fact of the matter is that although it's much worse on her the both of us are happier at least knowing what it is she is dealing with and there are other people out there dealing with the same thing, and are trying to beat this thing.
Suzanne is very anxious to try some of formulas that you all have suggested and also has something to go to her doctor with as far as information, because it really seems like they are not really sure what direction to go either.
Once again Suzanne and I would like to thank you all and I will be sure to have her or I let you know what the turn out is, and I will be checking in daily to learn more.
Thanks Agian

I have never been completely satisfied with the outcome of my washing clothes till I tried MMS. Before I tried detergent with borax and vinegar. Then detergent with borax and ammonia. Switched detergent to Arm and hammer and used 1/2 c. of each borax and ammonia.
The first time I did the MMS I was shocked to see all the dead stuff at the bottome of my wash tub. The clothes were also covered with the dead stuff so I shook them out outside and then threw them in the dryer. I had to go back to clean out the wash tub with windex and paper towels.
The second time I tried it, most were the same clothes but I did add a few others that had never been washed in MMS. There was alittle of the (?)and dirt which made a ring around wash tub just above the water line but nothing like the very first wash.
The third time the clothes were great and I am able to wear my flannel pj's for two days straight and sleep in the same sheets for three days.
Here is what I did for washing the clothes:. I set my washing machine on hot wash, smallest load setting. I let it fill up with the hot water, then I turn it off. Then I go and mix the MMS. First time I used 20 drops of MMS to 100 drops (I have actually been using lemon juice as my activator when using mms because I can get lemons free) If you use the lemon juice, for the 20 drops of MMS you use 1.5 teaspoons of lemon juice. After mixing the MMS and lemon juice I wait the required time (with the sand timer) and then I take the mix and put it in the washing machine. Turn on the washing machine and let the MMS get mixed in.
Then I shut off the washing machine again. Add the clothes I want to wash and change the setting on the washing machine to what ever load you have and usually mine is large. Don't over stuff the machine for the clothes need to have room to move without bunching up so they can get full exposure to seams and pockets etc. and the MMS. Then I turn on the machine again and let everything mix up for acouple of minutes, then I shut it off again.
Being cold weather and my washing machine is out in my cold garage, I lay a large plastic garbage bag on the top of the washing machine and cover it with a towel to keep the heat in since the lid of the washing machine is not very thick. I let the clothes sit for at least an hour (was told by someone that MMS is only effective for an hour and a half)
Since you do not add any soap or anything else with the MMS you do not have to worry about doing a rinse if you do not want too. My washing machine is so old that it does a cold water rinse and I cannot change it so I do not let it go through the rinse cycle. I shut off the washing machine after the spin cycle. Shake off the clothes outside then throw them in the dryer.
After the clothes have been washed in MMS once, the second time you will not have to shake out the clothes for you probably will not be able to see anything. The first time, they were everywhere on the clothes and seeing that filty wash tub made me love MMS!! Hope you have as good as results as I did.

I am new to this disease....first symptoms about mid October and then my two kids started having symptoms about a couple of weeks later. I have stayed up all night so many nights trying to read and learn what to do. I really didn't know where to begin until I prayed today and God led me to this site. I have been so scared I couldn't live my life anymore. I have gotten hope and peace here today...but only a sketchy plan of where to begin. I have been to two doctors and to no avail. I am concerned for my children who are ages two and five. I thank the Lord for all of you and this site. I hope someone can help guide me on where to begin treating this in myself and the kids. Thank you and God Bless! In Christ's love.... |
Debra11/22/2009
10:00:35 AM I hate to use this word 'cured' because I am never really sure. But I did want to post in case I could help anyone, especially after reading the last post by Gina about her children.
My believe is that this thing starts in the hair, it had for me. My first symptoms were black specs in the hair and movement in the hair 1 year ago. I decided to focus there. Lice killers don't work because they focus on the hair itself. This is in the hair shaft. I believe this is an ectoparasite - lives outside of body and hides in any openning of the body - which makes it hard to kill - and possibly reproduces in the hair shaft.
Maybe we do not all have exactly the same thing. But I urge you to focus on how this started for you and focus there.
I never had any lesions and I do not believe I have had any fibers unless they are under the skin and I do not see them. I have had this for a little over a year. I believe it started with a pet flea problem.
Most important #1- MMS - kills anything that is hiding out inside. If you want to get this over and done with as fast as possible - bite the bullet and do it.
#2 - diatomaceous earth - put all over including bed, car, in clothing drawers, on you, sleep in it, put it anywhere needed.
#3 - Kleen Green - bathe in it, spray it on you, clean with it, spray in car, etc.
#4 - Attack the hair folicles. I used 2 things - Neutrogena T/Gel Coal Tar shampoo extra strength AND
now this is perfectly safe- DermaBenSs by Dermapet. This product cleans deep inside the follicles and is for pets with parasites. This is a safe product and I would use it on my young children if I needed to.
#5 - a 30x hand held microscope - purchased cheap from a educational website. It certainly clears up what is going on. It allows you to stay 'sane' and figure out what is normal and what is related to this infestation. I have also ordered the 100x version.
#6 - Some great protocol to get you healthy and keep you there without the use of perscription drugs.
PH Balance important so this does not happen again.
But I do feel you can get rid of this first before your body adjusts to being healthier. I did and my ph balance is still a struggle. I have not limited my fruits as some of you have. I have always been a healthy eater and have just made it even healthier.
I am now in the process of doing the stool testing through Great Plains and also a similiar test done by a lab my doc recommends. I stopped all supplements including MMS 6 days ago in prep for the testing and have not had any reoccurrence of any symptoms.
I am so very grateful to Mel and Mr. Commonsense who are to be credited for the most part for giving me a life back. |

To all of you who are feeling alone and isolated at this time when others seem to have so much joy, I want you to know my heart is with you all.
2010 will be the year, all who visit this site and who have access to this great protocol, will be cured of this scourge. I see those around me following Mel's protocol, who were once struggling with M, now steadily improving, all at there own pace, depending on their commitment to the treatment, but the downward spiral has ended, and the slow steady ascent back to health is underway.
Thank you Mel for sharing your success with others. It is a desperate void people face without the help you and those who visit your site offer. Please keep up the great work.
Wishing you all quick recovery and great health soon,

Thank you Mel and Pamela..
it was a tuning point for me in my isolation to get a peronal response' not to jump yet'..which woke me up to how bad I really was feeling...and someone 'heard' and I wasn't alone anymore. It's been almost a year of a hard stuggle. It's Christmas now..one degree and the radio is charting Santa's route.
I gave up TV, the roommates, the townhouse in False Creek by the Ocean, any savings I had, oh, and cute clothes..and longer hair, and a bed and couch, and rugs, comforters. Actually, better to talk about what I have..love and appreciation for unconditonal love and the kindness of strangers, appreciation of nature and our culture...including last minute shoppers it's all good. Sunsets, and the ability to ride a bike and skate(roller and ice). And I'm learning the computer..yay. And I can still answer'not love' with love. Double yay. and I moved after 28 years..so it can be done. The skys the limit but it is my fondest wish for this new year to be released from the 'mite' esperience permanently..soon.
sincerely, with love,

Hi!
Just wanted to encourage everyone by letting you know how this protocol has helped us. My boy is 5 and he is free of itching and will only have an occassional black speck on his cheek on occassion...nothing else. I no longer get the crawling, except nose tickling and an occassional itch in the ear.
My 2 year old girl scratches at her hair on occassion and (very rarely) has black specks around diaper area after bowel movements, which crawl and infest her back too...spray with Kleen Green to eradicate (again this is rare now). They have primarily left her stools, now...but if I let her eat a banana..they are back. One thing I did that really seems to help with environmental reinfection is taping the bed covers and floors (near baseboards and under edges of bed or edges of sofa cushions) with masking tape...By this I mean tapping the tape to pick up the black specs. I do this on floors under edges of throw rugs, too.
We rarely feel a 'bite' now. We bathe with the Bonner's peppermint soap, even our hair, and laundry. I look microscopically at the white 'nits' after the peppermint shampooing and they have a hole in them! I also shave all the fuzz balls off all clothes or those will 'bite' too. I believe we drove them out through healthy eating and the wellness protocol supplements/alkalinity...and hope we are eradicating the house now, too.
I hope this helps someone to be encouraged. We are looking forward to the New Year, now. Even if it stays as it is...at least it is manageable now. Prayers to you all.

Mels Morgellons Medical Update (Jan 2, 2010)Hello Everyone,
I am happy to say I am in the best health I have been in the last 6 years. As mentioned in a post on our website forum called "A MESSAGE FROM THE MEL MAN, NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH THE MAIL MAN" (posted 12/10/2009 on our forum) where I had mentioned I had ceased taking all prescription drugs on Thanksgiving 2009, it appears that so many of you have missed that post.
I stated that I will continue to stay on the wellness protocol as well as Molecula Silver and my herbal anti-fungal. I have not been bitten or had a Morgellons sore in about a year. Yet I refuse to claim I am "cured" until I am off my prescription drugs for 120 days without any new occurrence- at which time I will be preparing for a hip replacement operation and could not do so unless I was cured.
Some of you who have been on the protocol for many months, who have not achieved the results we had hoped for you, will find it imperative that you contact the Great Plains Laboratory for testing to determine which anti-biotic and anti-fungal will work best within your body.
As I have mentioned from the beginning of the creation of this website, all of our bodies are slightly different and therefore may require a different anti-biotic or anti-fungal medication than the ones that worked for me.
Great Plains Laboratory test results that have been processed to date, have shown that "Mel's Basic Protocol" foundation is sound, and everybody's body is different as I have often stated. Bactrim and Oil of Oregano were the medications that were right for me and may not be exactly what someone else needs.
I am looking forward to reporting back to you in early April 2010, that I am cured.
May God Bless Us All

I am a friend of Mel's for 8 years now. I see him at the very least once a month.
I have watched Mel in all phases of this disease. It has been an incredible journey. He has attempted to heal himself through trial and error. I saw him when he was ashen grey and full of sores. I have seen him unable to leave his apartment due to pain, fear, open wounds, itching, and total devastation because he could not understand what all was happening to him.
I have seen this man pull things out of his skin and bag them to show the doctor because he wanted proof and confirmation. I have witnessed weight gain, weight loss and a man so scared that only two years ago (2008) he was sure he was going to die, and at times prayed for the relief. I do not know how many times we have cried together..the emotional stress alone of this disease is tremedous.
I would like to say that when looking for a cure to anything...we can take medicine that will mask our symptoms or we can take medicine that actually cures the disease. When we do the latter, we tend to get Sicker before we get better. Mel was a 'choclate mess' while on the protocol. A good analagy would be 'that we need to pull the weeds up by the root and not just cut off the top.' It might look good for a day or a week, but then it will rear it's ugly head again.
I don't have Morgellons, I had never heard of this disease before Mel was diagnosed. My heart aches for those of you who do...
Mel's health today... he is vibrant, energetic, his skin color is back in 'the pink' so to speak. His hair is growing and looking good again. The cold weather hurts his old injuries, but other than that...wow what a difference.
He is actually happy. He is feeding his soul by helping others. I for one am so grateful for the return of his health and his beautiful smile. I do not believe that Mel has a Messiah complex. Being from NY, he does have a strong personality, but nobody knows better than He that 'It Is Not All About Him.' I am proud to call him my friend.
Mel has also been battling psoriasis for years. He also has some nail and skin fungus that are disapating at an amazing rate! YAY!!! One would guess that a side-effect, if you will of the protocol is to get rid of fungus and psoriasis..his skin and nails look better than I have ever seen them.
The psoriasis covered most of his lower leg and is no longer thick & crusty. His legs are considerably better, the psoriasis is in patches and just a few places on the lower leg. The nails are not quite clear, but close..it's pretty exciting, acutually.
When Mel was asked to do this website, he was a little taken back because he was afraid of ridicule and what it may open up for him. I encouraged him to do it...I believe that we are all here for a reason and that we have a responsibility to share what we know. This website is Mel's passion.
Rick, I thank you for encouraging this website. For those of you who care...the money is not here...that is not the reason for the website. There are skeptics in all walks of life. In my experience, especially the medical field. Everybody wants a 'piece of the pie' and if they don't get it, they poo- poo the whole system/protocol/medication, if you will. That is an unfortunate reality.
My hope is that anyone who comes to this website gets something. This web site is meant to help. Be willing to go the distance. Remember if the protocol is working for you , you will get sicker before you get better.
Bottom line...sometimes we need to tweek whatever protocal we use to accomodate our different system. what I Do know? This DID work for Mel. No question about it, you just have to see him! There were many times he was frustrated, depressed and ready to give up and yet here he is willing to risk his reputation in order to help others...
NICE,My Friend. |

I have been watching the whole Morgellons thing ever since I heard a Jeff Rense program talking about it several years ago. Shortly thereafter, I met Mel and he had similar symptoms to those people on Jeff Rense, so I told him to look it up on the internet- and he did and confirmed that was what he had. Since I spend a lot of time on the internet, I suggested to Mel that he ought to try the Abodenzol that everyone was raving about. It was from that point that Mel began his journey.
For some reason, I have a lifelong interest in alternative medicine. I am not a health practitioner, just a nutcase (as my wife suggests). I am 54 years old and for my age, in perfect health- yet I am drawn to alternatives. I try to stay as far away from Allopathic medicine as I can. If I get a medical issue, I use my bevy of devices first (Colloidal Silver, QXCI, Scenars, Cold Lasers, Etc) and if those don't have an impact, I take some aspirin.
I tried all my trusted devices on Mel, to no avail (he was a willing "victim" of my mad science).
As soon as Mel noted the sores were healed, I went out to a bunch of yahoo Morgellon's forums and posted his results. I took great effort to make the posts not to appear as sales pitches on the forums, yet all my enthusiasm did was get me banned from most of the big ones. I've been emailing the Rense people about Mel to get him on, but I never get a reply.
I find it quite odd that mainstream medicine and the media have no interest in Mel's successes. In my clouded opinion, I feel it is because - unless the cure is patentable, and huge profits can be made by the patent, no one in the mainstream cares about Mel's success.
It is my own gut feeling that Morgellon's may be the body's response to people ingesting years and years worth of pharmaceutical drugs and toxic food- and the combined toxicity of all the drugs building up within the body. I have no scientific basis for my opinion, other than a gut feeling.
I think if anyone is waiting for the mainstream medical establishment to come out with a cure, don't hold your breath. And maybe when they do, the cure will be as "successful" as chemotherapy is to cancer.
Good luck you guys. You are in good hands with Mel. He is as wonderful of a guy in person as he is online. You have no idea the amount of love that exudes from his pores. He wants to make the world a better place and I think he has a good start. |

11:04:09 AM Tim asked the following question in another thread that is too important not to make it a thread unto itself:
Mel-once you were on your stated protocol, did your symptoms from Morgellons ever get Worse before they started to get better??
Thank you for all you do!
Also, did your feel ill from the protocol itself at anytime?
My response:
Hiya Tim,
Welcome again.
I've been waiting for someone to ask this question for a while now. This is such an important subject. As you begin the protocol, you will find that if it is working, yes you will get sicker.
It is very difficult to explain to the general public that one must get sicker before they get better. I often attempt to tell people that they must be brave in order to conquer this disease.
There is a thing called the Herxheimer reaction or response which refers to the body's reaction to acute toxicity. Many people get frightened when this happens, but it is actually a good sign. This is also why so much of our protocol is about supporting detox pathways.
When I started to get very very sick, what helped me stay brave in my case was the fact that I had been told I was going to die. Bottom line, getting sicker was better than the alternative.
I hope this answers your question. Welcome again.
God Bless, never give up Hope,
Mel |

12:41:54 AM I was wondering if anyone has tried ice massage to their lesions? I had some clusters of white spots on the upper corners of my lips that seemed to resist any topicals that work elsewhere. A couple days ago I tried a cold pak and then ice cubes and the coldness seemed to bring things out of my pores (not immediately in the spots receiving the ice, but spots nearby...maybe an inch or two away).
After removing the ice or cold, it seemed like a few minutes later, things would poke up from the pores. Anyway, a few of the spots on my lips came right off immediately, and a few more came off the next day. I still have several more to work on. If this works...maybe we'll have another thing for our arsenal! I thought maybe wearing an ice pak on the head under a toboggen/hat may help the scalp??
Anyone try ice or cold???

Gina,
okay here we go,
Mel says brilliant!
Truly out of the box and something Mel has discussed with John and I and always has said he believes this could help.
On days when things are very tense he repeatedly tells us this funny story.
He is strapped to a gurney, he is being pushed into the freezer of a large hotel,where he lives in Reno.
Although he has never done it,nor does he recomend it. He truly believes that cold and ice deinitely have a positive effect.
He often laughs and says 'You know its free!'
God Bless never give up hope!

I tried my first MMS bath yesterday and definitely saw it working in the first few minutes-saw a couple of fuzzies floating in the water. I noticed afterwards I was less attractive to biting 'mites' as before.
Would recommend you shower first-then bath- as I had some sunscreen I should have taken off before taking the bath. No stinging or irritation-but can change hair color!
Question-HOW many bathes is it safe to take?

Thanks Mel and PS,
I learned something from Andreas Kalcker!
I never thought of taking the MMS away from coffee and tea. These are antioxidants.
I knew this from all I had studied but never put 2 and 2 together.
I actually was drinking green tea right after taking MMS- I will stop.
Excellent and professional video!
Nice.

I was very scared to start the MMS at first. It took me months to get up the nerve. At the time, there was not a lot on the internet about taking MMS, just horror stories. Then, after talking to Mel, I started the MMS. He had to call me and stay on the phone while I drank my first. My point is, I wish this video had been out back then. It takes the "scare" out of starting it.

I wanted to share with EVERYONE there is hope :) ! My husband has been symptom free for 6-8 weeks now and that is with eating whatever he wants. I myself have no symptoms now other then a fiber once in awhile, and only when I put lotion on! I still am pretty careful what I eat, for the most part anyhow.
We use the protocol religiously for about 4 or 5 months now, including MMS and silver. Neither of us have been on an antibiotic.
I did the organic acid urine test and comprehensive stool which showed I needed goldenseal(natural antibiotic), caprylic acid(anti parasitical and anti fungal), and nystatin(for yeast). I did all the natural things and then got my doctor to order Nystatin.
We didn't even wash the sheets for over a week and no crawlies or anything!!! I am so encouraged and want to share with you all!
I truly believe in this protocol Mel has discovered. And also that the testing is the ultimate key in getting your body in the right position to truly have wellness and a chance at complete healing. Knowledge is power! Please do whatever you can to move forward with the testing. And don't be discouraged if you get worse first, hang in there, it does get better.
Never lose Hope, some ARE getting well. We survived and you will too. WE were completely infested w/ bird mites which is how we than got Morgellons. Hang on and do what you can to get well!
God loves each and everyone of you and my prayers are with you!

Kim, Thank you for sharing your good news!!! On Mar 7 I got off everything in order to do the GP testing and had decided not to go back on any antibotics, MMS and M. Silver until I got my results back because I was really making progress and feeling good so had planned to just do the vitamins and probotics. Also because I heard so much negative about the MMS and M/Silver that I did not know whether to start it back up even though I felt that it was responsible for my good progress.
After reading your posting last night, I immediately took the M/silver this morning and notice more bio film in my stool coming out. I also know thet the MMS has helped me with my gums so will be using that tonight. As for bathing in MMS, I always believed in it because of an earlier post way back in the beginning about a guy who bathed in it for 3 months and a spider came out of his neck and that is what convinced me about MMS but again all the warmings I heard from other sites made me question.
You had bird mite, I got mine from lice and when I got serious about bathing in the MMS in Nov. and dunking my head I finally got rid of the lice in Jan.
I know Mel got well but I was beginning to think that it would not work for everyone until I read your post because everyone else seemed to have tweaked the protocol.
So thanks, Mel, Kim, John, Pam, Mr. C/S and A-Z and everyone else who has posted.

Hi all and ld,
I think it is amazingly AWESOME that 2 more people who followed mels protocol and had testing are well and better.
WAY TO GO !!!!
I would like to say that Kim at first had the morgellons allll over,her face and legs.
And recently her friend exposed the whole family to Mononeuleosis - blood work showed she got it and in
one week end she was well.Every one was shocked.
The result is amazing,but she and her husband stuck to everything religiously.
I would like to add something about 'Tweeking'
We on the forum know that means 'adding in addition to mels basic protocol those things that testing shows us.
Kim and her husband stayed on the protocol while having testing . I did as well.
So when one has testing I sure hope they are staying on their needed things.
The lab will tell you to go off all things but the Docs who use the labs often say 'stay on what you need we can read the tests anyway.'
You just don't know what a blessing it is that this has come about in its perfect time- to prove mels hard work ,
Blessings

Mel, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your advice and protocal. My mother and I have had this for fifteen years and have tried so many things that have exhausted our funds. I know you are a blessing from God!
My Mother and I have been on your Protocal for three months now. Mother and I have to live seperately because it cuts down the bugs. Because she is elderly I have to do things for her and see her. We are really close and it has been awful not being able to spend time together.
After taking your protocol religiously for three months I am not totally attacked by them when I see her. This has given us hope and a better quality of life. Thank you for being here to guide all of us out here that need you!
I have had the test through a Doctor but he does not know how to read it. I am in San Antonio , Texas and will call Pam to see if she can find some one that can read this test for my mother and me. God Bless you!

Hiya JDB,
Welcome as always.
Thank you so much for sharing with all of us the improvement that both you and your mother have had. It is truly a blessing that people who have suffered for 15 years with this have found such profound relief within 90 days on the protocol.
As I mentioned in my story, it was about 90 days when I realized that my symptoms were abating.
Hopefully your post will encourage others to do two things:1. Stay on the protocol; all who have reported getting better have also reported that they have stayed on the protocol religiously.
2. Also post feedback as they begin to recover.
God Bless, Never give up Hope!

Hi Mel and Everyone,
My name Pat. I have been posting as PS. I have Morgellons and other health issues. Like many I have been researching Morgellons extensively. Your forum has been a daily read for me. First I was interested in MMS--how it was affecting people and what dosage was being used since I have been using it myself. Second, multiple people have posted they are getting better with a protocol similar to mine (Mel's Protocol is similar to the one I have created for myself). Using my protocol I have been slowly recovering from Morgellons and my other health issues have been remitting.
My experience with my regiment tells me that Mel's Protocol works. Mel's recovery tells me that what I am doing is going to work for me. Some of us may be sicker with Morgellons than others and have other health issues that can cause different rates of healing. I have been ill for a long time and I have had to go very slowly.
Despite my slow improvement I believe strongly MMS will get rid of Morgellons. I believe so strongly in MMS I purchased a lifetime supply.

PS AND THOSE INTERESTED IN MMS. I became a believer in the MMS when I read the personal testimony of "E". Go back to post dated 4/24/2009 from E titled OPPS forgot to mention this...
When I first began I started the protocol then cut my drops to 8 drops twice a day but was taking it once in morning once at night and bathing in it twice a day, once morning and night. After 3 months, I cut back to once a day for drinking and bathing after noticed things coming out of my skin were slowing down and getting smaller. I finally got rid of my lice because I was also soaking my head during the bath.

Hope it will encourage others to take the time to watch the video.
Looking forward to hearing your progress reports once you begin the protocol and start to feel better.

Somehow....I love to say it and think it...but I feel funny in finally declaring that this is really gone....because it is so hard to believe! Yes, this was one persistant disease, and each 'cycle' seemed to bring a greater feeling of hopelessness.
Just last month, I felt I would just have this forever. But.....I want to let you all know that for at least a week or two now, we (myself and my two children) have all had no symptoms!! I LOOK for things and can not find them. No itching, crawling, no sores, etc. Even the flakes in the hair are gone! No tickling in the nose!
In the process of getting well from this with the Wellness Protocol and some molecular silver, and topicals (peppermint soaps, laundry detergents...lots of cleaning...and essential oils)...many other health problems were cured as well!!!
I got a cure from my Chrohn's like illness that I had for 20 years, and learned how to keep my reflux from 2 hernia's under control. I thank you Mel, John, Pam and others that I have had the pleasure of meeting on here.
Most of all I thank the Lord Jesus Christ my SAVIOR and our Father in Heaven...for it was an answer to prayer that led me immediately to this site. I knew when I clicked onto it that the Lord brought me to this information. HE is so good to answer our prayers of faith and deliver us from not only the problem at hand, but other problems in the process!!!
Keep the faith....the cure will come for all with faith and persistance. It didn't take us as long because we just got Morgellon's last October and I found this website immediately....yet it did persist for 6 months! That shows how strong of a vector it is!
PS....we never used MMS much, because I was afraid of it..... I will check back on here every week or two, because I have a great compassion for all those who are suffering with this...and I always read almost all of the posts. You will all be in my prayers, and if anyone wants a reply from me, I will be happy to via this site. If anything changes for us, I will post it as well.
'But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the LORD.' 1 Corinthians 1:30-31
There was always a Bible verse that carried special meaning for me personally. It is: 'And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his prupose.' (Romans 8:28) I felt that meant that even the bad things that happen to us who love the Lord, these things have a good purpose.
I prayed for at least seven years for a cure for my Chrohn's symptoms. I knew in my heart it would be cured someday, but just learned to live with it. It is interesting that through this new ordeal with Morgellons, I was cured of Chrohn's (I believe it was the first treatment I tried..eating raw garlic for a couple of weeks). I was doing it for the Morgellons, and found the Chrohn's was being healed! Therefore, I believed the the Lord would also cure the Morgellon's one day...and praise HIM now for He has!!!! Amen!
Please turn to the Lord in this...have great faith in Him and keep Romans 8:28 in mind always! And never forget John 3:16 above all, 'For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.' Love and Prayers to all...Gina, Timmy (age 6) and Danica (age 3)

Hiya Gina,
Welcome as always.
The news that you bring to the website should bring hope to many others. I find the most intriguing part is when you thanked the Lord for answering your prayer by immediately leading you to our website.
I think your diagnosis after five months of dealing with Morgellons was a saving grace. Unfortunately, most people are told for an extended period of time that there is nothing wrong with them. Yours is the quickest diagnosis of our disease that I have ever heard of. This was instrumental in aiding your quick recovery.
As we have seen in the past, children usually recover quicker than adults, so I am very happy to see that you are progressing at the same rate.
Thanks again for sharing your exciting news. Please keep us posted on your progress as you continue to follow the protocol.
God Bless, Never give up Hope!

On Sunday the following post was made by clod and I thought it merited it's own thread:
Clod

5:50:37 AM
' for me, and i almost zero symptoms 95% cured. i bought a new bed and covered it with vinyl cover that i wipe w/ clorox wipes and my pillows taboot. i sleep in a synthetic sleeping bag i bleach every night. i believe this has helped my healing a lot.i also read all the threads on here, this site is great. '
I would like to congratulate Clod and look foward to his total recovery!
AS we have seen continously, those who report the greatest inprovement have had two things in common. they all claim to take the whole protocol religiously,
and they have committed to our full protocol for a minimum of three month's before even beginning to assess their progress.
Therefore, We would suggest that any one who is considering our protocol be willing to make that commitment!
God bless, Never give up Hope!

This whole experience has been the obscure thing to ever happen to me in entire life. I really feel bad for the people out there that do not have internet, or do, and still have no clue what is plaguing their life. I really hope someday the public is aware of this syndrome/disease so people can start healing faster. It is sad how many people think they have scabies or similar pests. I myself was on topixs.com looking for cures to the infamous 'unseen mites' It took me over three months to figure out it was morgellons and i am a young guy that is always on the internet. |

I still do not go to her house but she is comming to mine to visit and watch a movie. We haven't Been able to do this in years! We both did the GPL test and have had our first consult with Nancy Guberti. She so knowlegable and kind when I just don't quite get it.

HELLO EVERYONE,
Welcome as always:
I imagine HOPE means something slightly different to each and every one of us.
Before I get into to HOPE;
Quickly lets give you all a brief update.
I have been fairly quiet on the website recently as I have been rearranging my home (apt) for living.
What exactly does that mean?
Back in 2006 when I was told that I would probably die from this disease, I decided to build my last model railroad(My Bucket list). I have always loved trains. My first set was a gift from my parents when I was 19 months old!
My Bucket List Railroad took me over two and a half years to complete. It encompassed most of the living and dining room. It has taken parts of the last 64 days to take down, box up and store it. Hence, I have not been as active on the site as I am going to be once again.
Now that there is no doubt that I will be around for a while, I wanted to recapture my space for living. I now have friends over again, I am spending more time with people and anticipate entertaining all of my grandchildren this coming Christmas.
If you told me in 2006, in 2007, or in 2008 that I would be writing this today, I would have said (only if you have HOPE!) I never have and never will ever give up HOPE. All things are possible.
If you would have told me I would be river rafting
with my friend Lloyd and his buddies (these boys are 25 years younger than I am)when I was very ill back then, I would have said (only if you have HOPE!)
A rafting we shall go!
I show up on time @ 11am Sunday, three weeks ago, I wait about thirty minutes, then the others show up. I limp from the parking lot to the river, (I can't walk too well)and watch as the others climb into a large raft.
It looks like I'm stuck with this big ole inner tube.
Ok by me, now how to do this. I try lying across the top of the inner tube and immediately fall off into the river and cut my leg a little. I am laughing and swimming trying to catch up with the inner tube.
As soon as I get the tube, the boys decided it might be better if I was in the big raft. Sounds good to me.
This one hour trip winds up taking five hours. I am thrown out of the big raft three additional times
because of the rapids. I am tired, sunburned and as happy as if I were a child.
Why is this all possible? Because I never gave up HOPE!
Now that I have been able to recapture my health, it is MY HOPE, that I might be able to HELP some of you regain your health. NEVER GIVE UP HOPE THAT YOU WILL BE WELL AGAIN, I am living proof that it is possible!!
God bless you all,
NEVER NEVER give up Hope!
Mel

I had told myself that I would not post until I was significantly improved from Mel's protocol. I am significantly improved after 2 months. I have a long way to go but I do feel my 5 year fight has finally found some help. I am doing the protocol just as Mel describes with topicals different and keeping on some of the herbal supplements that I had before and I did not do Lab testing as the Docters were not close by and I did not have the energy to go through contacting. However I decided to start everything as listed and it seems to be working out.
Thank you Mel

Hiya All,
Welcome as always.
Saturday, August 21st is the second anniversary of the inception of the protocol that has restored my health as outlined on the protocol page. It also marks one full year of my being on the entire Burgstiner Wellness Protocol from Logos Nutritionals.
I have been symptom free since December 2009 and off all Morgellons related medications for for a little more than nine months now. If someone would have told me two years ago that I would be rafting down the Truckee River twice in a five week period of time, I would have found that difficult to believe.
The fact that I sustained a minor back injury between the two rafting trips makes it a little more difficult for even me to comprehend. Rafting down the Truckee was something that I had not done in the first nine years that I have lived here in Reno.
Now, I have gone down two separate parts of the river. the second even more beautiful than the first, as we started high atop Lake Tahoe at Tahoe city.
As you gently float down the river from Tahoe City to Truckee, you are in awe of winding through the mountains. The beauty is incomprehensible.
During my five hour trip, many times I found my mind wandering to all of you who are caught up in the nightmare of Morgellons disease, and looking forward to the day when many of you will be joining me on a trip such as this.
As I have often said, never, never give up Hope. My back is a little sore and my knees are a little stiff, but according to my doctor, Shannon Zamboni MD, I am "The Picture of Health".
Now I would like to thank the folks from A2Z, a very special thanks to my doctor Shannon Zamboni as well as John Burgstiner for enduring along with me my struggle of many years against Morgellons.
God Bless You All.
Never, Never Give up Hope.
Mel

Mel,
River rafting is something I have wanted to do for many years. In 2001 I had the opportunity to watch some people river rafting. Due to my health it was out of the question for me at that time. It looked like fun and I have had it on my list of things I want to do every since.
With my continuing to recover from my Morgellons and Rheumatological conditions I will, in the near future, be able to go river rafting.
Mel, you are very fortunate to have Dr. Zamboni for your physician. I know she has been an integral part of your recovery from Morgellons. I wish everyone were so lucky.
One of my goals regarding Morgellons has been its recognition by mainstream medicine and for people with Morgellons to be treated well by their physicians, as you were. I am thankful every day that I have been able to work with you toward that goal. So, thanks and lookout because I'm coming river rafting.

Hiya Kathy, PS, Maribeth, Dr.Zamboni, and all who read these comments.
Welcome as always.
I have often said that I felt Lucky to have Dr. Zamboni as my doctor. I also have noted that I was her patient for 5 years prior to getting Morgellons. That certainly helped, because she knew for sure that I was not crazy.
Today I will link all those who can use help with their doctors to a published letter by Randy S Wymore, Ph.D. and Rhonda Casey, D.O. Copy this Practitioner Letter and take it to your next doctor's appointment.
It should be a big help!
Practitioner Letter
GOOD LUCK,
GOD BLESS YOU ALL,
NEVER NEVER GIVE UP HOPE!

It is so wonderful to share in joy with you on being sympton -free and rafting. It kindles renewed hope. I wish to thank you, Pat, JohnB. and Pamela Mae for much assistance. That is a wonderful Practitioners Letter. Pat sent it to me earlier. I am unable to get that phone number to work for Dr. Wymore. Has anyone else tried it?

Hi Mel!!!
It's Laurie!
Well, I believe I have the protocol down-pat!
I have been doing it now for '8 WEEKS'!!!!
I can't believe it!!!
My skin is starting to look like skin!! It is turning WHITE!!! NOT THAT GREY OR ORANGE COLOR!!!
I am NOT CURED, BUT . . .
I have some energy back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am sleeping sooooooooooooo much better!!!
I FEEL better!!!!
AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVE LOVE LOVE MMS!!! In my opinion, MMS is what is doing it! Although, of course, I have been on the Logos Nutritonals for just about a month now, and TRULY believe GETTING YOUR BODY TERRAIN/IMMUNE SYSTEM UP AND RUNNING!!
And, of course, everything is NOT perfect, as I still get hit with BAD diahrea, and I still have 3 fingers affected, but . . . compare me to who I was 2 months ago, I COULDN'T EVEN GET OUT OF THIS RECLINER!!
Now I can do:
the dishes
REMEMBER to pay bills!!!
make phone calls!!!
REMEMBER THINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
do the laundry STAYING ON TOP OF IT!!!!
vacuum WITHOUT DYING!!! Now, my back will ALWAYS HURT, AND I WILL ALWAYS NEED TO USE MY CANE TO HELP ME PUSH THE VACUUM, BUT I WILL ALWAYS SUFFER FROM BODY SPASMS, because of the NEUROLOGICAL DISEASE, but . . .
I AM SOOOOOOOOO MUCH BETTER!!!
I KNOW I 'still' have a LONG way to go, but . . . I will continue on the Protocol as I have been! I will only CONTINUE TO GET EVEN MORE BETTER!!!!!!
GOD steered me to your site for this reason!!! I thank God EVERY DAY!!
***I do have a question for you. HOW did you even THINK about MMS? How did God guide you there? How did he put that little spark in your mind to use it??
I am just SOOOO gracious you tried it, it worked, and you SHARED IT WITH PEOPLE LIKE ME!!!
THANK YOU!!!

Hiya Laurie,
Welcome again;
Congratulations on your progress so far. Based on your post I think that the protocol is having a very positive effect.
Stabilization is only the first part of the journey. I have said there is no quick fix, and unfortunately that is true.
Next, one must look for a lessening of all symptoms.
As you know, I stayed on the entire protocol for eighteen months and not without some ups and downs.
I still take the wellness protocol from Logos to ensure I remain in top health.
I look forward to your next update in a couple of months and hope your post has given others Hope!
God bless, Never give up HOPE!

I am so happy for you. Yes MMS is truely a miracle. It is the #1 reason that I can live a normal life.

Hi Debra,
It is great to see that you are doing so well and now that you "have your life back", you care enough about those who are still suffering to come back here and lift others up.
That is what Mel's life and this website are all about... in a couple of words, transformation and hope.
I am aware that you have been faithfully following Mel's full protocol for quite some time now, and as is typically the case with those who do so, you have stabilized your health and restored your quality of life.
Having survived and overcome this plague which can only be described as Hell on earth, many people would not want to glimpse back - and even if they did, the the world from which they were once isolated has a way of recapturing one's time and talents.
So thanks again for sharing your success and in the process, giving encouragement to all and restoring Hope to some who desperately need it.
Peace and Blessings,
John Burgstiner

I refer you to my story on Mel's website, located in The conference call archives link, dated May 20, 2010. I am eternally grateful for the supportive assistance, receive through this community. I have experienced highs and lows,however I do not give up on faith and hope in God.
Mel has assembled an excellent team. He offers his protocol, with PERSONAL knowledge on how it works to devastate MORGELLONS. It is free!! Awesome!! Pamela Mae brings unlimited knowledge to the community about testing and her most informative website. John B.offers his infinite expertise on nutrition, health and body funtions. Pat shares boundless Information on Morgellons via his in-depth research. Mr. Common Sense visits with invaluable inSIGHT.

Dear Mel:
Maybe I just wasn't able to locate it, but how can I find out how to dial into the teleconference calls which are the last Thurs of each month at 8:45 EST? If there's a mailing list could you kindly add my email address to it for these notifications? Usually there is a special code along with the phone number and I'd like to get it.
I'm at the beginning of my journey, 64 years old and retired and have been sick since February of 2010. it took me a long time to find out what I had and it would not have happened without the help of an entomologist at Cornell to whom I was sending samples of the Morgellons critters for Insect I.D. After telling me my samples were 'debris' repeatedly, I begged her to say if this ever happened before. That's when she told me to look up MOrgellons. Everyone said it had no cure and no 'real' treatment. I contemplated suicide. My doctor, once he got over his 'you're delusional' stage, looked it up and said he would treat it like Lyme disease. I was not satisfied because he was so unsure. I kept going online and one day I put 'cure' and 'Morgellons' into the browser and I got your site. Mel, you changed everything for me. Just coincidentally, my mother's maiden name was Friedman and you and I are close in age. It gave me such hope. I figured if you could be cured, well maybe I could too. I followed your instructions and got to Pamela Crane and now I've just gotten my test results back and am being treated for the gut problems that are suppressing my immune system. I bless you and thank you and you are in my heart all the time. When I get downhearted I think of you and all you went through and yet perservered to find a cure. I am living on social security and just barely making it with all my medical expenses eating away at my savings which are sparse due to the economic downturn which halved my retirement investments. If I had money I would definitely send it to your site. If the abundance I ask the universe for ever comes, I will send some your way.
Enjoy your life and be well.
Gratefully,
Edith Springer

Hello My Friend,
That we have been from our first phone call back 2006.
It was one of our early communications in which one of us tried to convince the other to try horse medicine.
I honestly can't remember whose idea it was. WE sure have come a long way since then. I have been Morgellons free for two years this month, and if I understand correctly, you are almost there.
I can think of no one better to explain to our listeners on the conference call how to create a good patient/Dr. relationship. As a Nurse Practitioner for over 25 years you have been on both sides of this relationship.
Thanks in advance for your willingness to take the time to help others and create Hope!
God bless you My Friend

Thanks for trusting me, when many before me disappointed you!

7:15:15 AM Hi, my name is Michele and I would like to invite you all to join in on the teleconference call that is being conducted this Sunday.
I have been asked to answer some brief questions during the call pertaining to my experience with Morgellons.
I work in the housing development industry in Northern California. I married my first husband three years ago and he shows no signs of the disease. (thank goodness)
I have had severe Morgellons symptoms for the last 4-6 years.
Fortunately, I have a PA who just recently diagnosed me with Morgellons Syndrome after monitoring my health over the last four years. (She did her job!) I am very thankful for her support and care!
I am very happy to say that I found Mel's Protocol about 6 months ago. I began to feel enormous improvements in my health within the first month!
All I can say is.Thank you Mel from the bottom of my heart! I did what you suggested via the protocol and I now have gone three months without becoming severely ill. I feel like I am getting my life back slowly but surely. (MMS works great for me!)
I really hope I get a chance to meet with more of you via the telephone and this Sunday would be a great start!
I wish you all joy, peace and health!

Welcome is an under statement!
To trust and believe in a total stranger is not an easy thing to do. To do this during the confusion that accompanies Morgellons is even more difficult.
Your post brings a big smile to my face!
I have said many times in order to beat Morgellons
one must be brave and diligent, as well as patient!
I am looking forward to this Sunday, I thank you in advance for the help you are now willing to give others as you have your health restored.
God bless, YOU never gave up HOPE!

THE ORCHESTRATION OF HOPE
ps
11/16/2010
4:44:51 PM
Greeting Everyone,
I'm pretty excited about the upcoming teleconference call. I've found some important information that may help you and your Doctor. This is so important that I just couldn't wait for the teleconference call to share it with you.
You may not know it, I know I didn't until I did some research, but your Doctor uses a Diagnosis Code to bill your insurance. So, just how does your insurance pay for a disease that has no insurance code? I found the answer.
A few 'Morgellons Friendly Physicians' report using the ICD code 709.9.
2010 ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Code 709.9
Unspecified disorder of skin and subcutaneous tissue
709.9 is a billable ICD-9-CM medical code that can be used to specify a diagnosis on a reimbursement claim.
That's how.
We are going to be covering this in detail on the December 5th during the teleconference call. The other part of the teleconference includes three recovering Morgellons Sufferers from our website. They will be discussing with us the importance of a good doctor patient relationship and much more valuable information. The kind of Information Morgellons Sufferers Need.
Ask your friends and families to join us and learn about this little known emerging disease. Ask other Morgellons Sufferers to join us.
Let's make this the biggest Teleconference Call yet!
PS

Hi Michele, Kathy, and Maribeth,
I want to thank all of you for time to be on the conference call.
It was a privilege to be able to spend some time getting to know each of you. I feel honored that you took the time to share your stories with me as I was preparing for the call.
Morgellons can be a very isolating disease. Each time I have the opportunity to talk to another Morgellons Sufferer I am reminded that we are not going through this disease alone. I hope that those who were able to listen in to the call and those who will listen to it from the Conference Call Archive will understand they are not alone.
Kathy and Michele you both were marvelous. What a message of hope you were able to convey. Telling about your symptoms expressing your fear in the early days of your disease. Then tellings us how you were overcoming Morgellons and able to return to 'normal' lives. You are leading the way for many from despair to hope and wellness.
Maribeth, I know you were disappointed that circumstances beyond your control prevented you from being able to be on the call. But by being there, behind the scenes, as we were preparing made rest of us better. In addition to your story of hope you are in a unique position to share information about the Health Care Provider - Patient relationship. We will have time or make time for you to get that valuable information out in the not too distant future.
PS

Hello,
I am a 39 yr. old wife and Mother of three wonderful boys.We had the perfect life until almost two yrs ago, that's when our life changed.
I won't go into the horrifying details, but I can tell you that I went from playing tennis three times a week, yoga twice a week, and being very involved in everything my boys did, to not being able to do anything.
I didn't know what was happening to me, so I sought the help of medical Doctors, what a nightmare, I had no idea they could be so clueless and so heartless, you can't imagine all the damaging things they said and wrote in my medical records.
I really felt lost at this point, so I turned to the internet and looked up my symptoms, and there it was, MORGELLONS!
I had never heard of this before, but the symptoms were dead on. I realized at this point there really was no one to turn to. That's when I truly believe God led me to an angel on earth, MEL FREIDMAN!
I started on the LOGOS vitamins (believe me I spent an absolutely fortune on other brands ) and they are great. Then I added the Bactrim, but it wasn't until I started the MMS that I started to see big changes.
I was nervous about taking the MMS, but Mel helped encourage me to try it, I'm so glad I listened.
I wanted instant results, so after 3 or 4 weeks I still wasn't feeling very much change, except for I noticed I was purging many more things out of my body, so as frustrated as I was, I kept taking it, by the time I finished my second month on the full protocol I felt like a new person.
I can't say that I am totally cured yet, but I feel sure at the rate I'm improving I will beat this. All of the protocol, but I think without the MMS you won't see the BIG changes. I can't say enough good things about MMS.
I encourage anyone who might have this horrible affliction, PLEASE get on this protocol, and stick with it, you will see the difference it makes. And I thank God everyday he led me to Mel.
Thank you Mel, and thank the guys at Logos and A2Z!
Mel, if anyone has any questions, I would be more than happy to answer them.
GOD BLESS!

Dear Mel,
I haven't heard from you in a while. I hope you are doing well. I have been very very buzy. I am working 5-6 days per week.
I am back on my feet financially. God has been good to me. I just wanted to say I am so grateful to you and everyone on the site. Every time I read a post from someone new,I feel so much for that person and what they are going thru.
I wish they could see thru the pain and the fear to where they can be if they stick with the protocol and as you say,never give up. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Always your friend,
Kathy

I Wish to Thank This Website.5/26/2011
Hello everyone,
I spoke with Mel and Pat during the end of the confrence call last Sunday about my recovering from Morgellons using Mel's protocol. Unfortuantly, I was a little nervous and waited until almost everyone had left the call before speaking up. I've decided to post everything that I said to Mel and Pat that day in hopes that maybe this could help other people that read the Forum.
Here goes...
I've had Morgellons for over three years now. I've only known that it's Morgellons for maybe a little over a year. When I first started experiencing symptoms( bites, itching, and black specks) I thought maybe my home was infested with fleas or mites. I had the exterminator spray my home top to bottom several times but it never seemed to help. My symptoms only got worse.
Then I want on to thinking that maybe it was scabies and at one point I even thought that I was losing my mind. Losing my mind would have been much easier to deal with.
One day I decided to look up my symptoms on the Internet. The first thing that came up was Mel's site. I started reading and realized that my symptoms were the same as many people on this site.
After contacting and speaking with Mel I decided to try the protocol. I had everything but the bactrim because my Dr. was sceptical about Morgellons and thought that it could possibly be a well known parisite instead. After I showed him pictures of all the lesions on my hands( seventeen altogether) he immediatly prescribed the bactrim.
Once my Dr. started believing that it was Morgellons, I brought him everything that I could print out from Mel's site. After reading, he completely agreed with Mel's protocol including the MMS and the Molecular Silver.
I've been on the Mel's protocol for about two and a half months now and I've made a huge improvent. I no longer have any lesions, I have more energy than I've had in 3 years, the brain fog is finally clearing up, vision is clearing up, and I'm going back to work full time again. I can also spend time with my six year old daughter again( I kept a distance between us because I was afraid that she would get it).
I truly believe that I couldn't have done this without Mel's protocol and MMS.
In the beginning I was so afraid of MMS. After talking to Mel and my Dr., I realized that I had no other choice. I started taking doses of it just every few days and soon realized that it wouldn't help unless I was more consistent with it. I saw the biggest improvement in my health when I started taking it everynight and bathing in it once or twice a week. I still get afraid of it each time I take it but after taking it I feel so much better. Ive come to realize that MMS is nothing short of amazing and I really hope that I can help other people overcome their fear of it so that they can get better too.
Also, I would like to add that there's no quick fix for this disease. Mel's protocol does take time. When i realized this I thought to myself, 'I've had this for 3+ years. What's a few months?'.
If anyone would like to hear my conversation with Mel and Pat last Sunday, please go to the Confrence call Archives at the top of the page. Also, if anyone has any questions for me please get my cell number or email from Mel. He knows that I'll be more than happy to help.
Mel, thank you from the bottom of my heart! You and your protocol have saved my life!
God Bless,
Ashley

Hello Ashley,
Welcome as always.
A big big thank you for taking the time to put your thoughts and your progress into words for the forum as well as on our last Teleconference Call.
Originally we were going to call your portion of the teleconference call 'A visit from a recovering Morgellons friend', but we decided to simply call it 'Ashley's Story'.
I know that you never gave up hope, and I hope your story inspires others to do likewise.
Thank you again.
God Bless, Never give up Hope,
Mel

Mel,
Thank you for allowing me to share my story with everyone here. I hope that everyone who listens to it and/or reads my post below will have the courage to do the same as I have...just follow the entire protocol day after day and listen to you. Your words of encouragement and knowledge made me a braver and healthier person and for that, I cannot thank you enough.
I'm looking forward to a full recovery soon. I know that I'm almost there!
Well, got to go... It's almost time for my dose of MMS :)
God Bless,
Ashley |
The Only Way to Kick This AfflictionDebra
6/3/2011
Hi Everyone -
Mel asked me to share a little bit about myself. I guess I am one of the first to have found Mel's site about 3 yrs ago.
I have had this for 4.5 yrs now. Had I listened to Mel 3 yrs ago I would probably be pretty much cured by now. But I did not know who to believe. Who was this guy and why is he trying to help strangers, what's in it for him. This is what I thought.
I have gone through the same experience as everyone else, No need to rehash it all. Except I have not had lesions or fibers. For me it all started with a flea infestation of my dog and before I knew what was going on it had spread to my 3 cats. All my cats usually find their way into my bed during the night. By the time I found out we had fleas they were jumping on my bed. I was sleeping with them. Before I know it I am in the Twilight Zone.
I have been a health freak for 40 yrs. I was reading prevention magazine as a teen. I had been driving my family crazy complaining about additives and preservatives, etc. for decades. I studied Nutrition in college. I refused to take medications, antibiotics, etc. I was a professional dancer for many years. I was in the best of shape even at my age of 50. So why me?? Obviously, this could happen to anyone. I am sure that I contracted some bacteria or parasite or both from the fleas. As I learn more and more, I realize that it may be some new organism that is not identified or some genetically modified thing that is being covered up by the CDC. My original thought was that it was something as simple as a mite that wraps itself in skin so that the body can not detect it - this does exist. (There is a great book called 'Big Fleas have little Fleas' if you want to read about the beginnings of genetically modified substances.)
I tried Mel's protocol and for the first time I started to see improvement. But I hated the mms so much I stopped and went to Mr.C's protocol. That seemed to work too, but there was something missing. I then took both protocols to a terrific Holistic Doctor in NY. This doctor graduated from Harvard as an MD but decided at some point that mainstream medicine was not doing the job it should be doing. He became very disillusioned with the profession and decided to look into alternative medicine.
He asked me - out of all these pills you brought me to see, what one thing would you say actually works the best. What makes you feel the best? I said to him - the MMS without a doubt. He explained to me that that means there is a parasite involved and that mms was perfectly safe to take and I should continue taking it. This was what I needed to hear from a doctor I respected so much. I went back on it.
But I again eventually started to look for answers that did not involve mms. I did this mainly to help a friend that would not take mms. I tried to find a cure for her. I went on another protocol by another alternative doc but every day I got worse and worse.
After 4.5 yrs of looking for answers, the real answer was the first one I found.
The only people getting better are on Mel's protocol. I started mms again along with my own group of supplements. It took only 3 days on very small doses to feel better than I had in months. By the 5th days I came down with the worst cold, congestion and laryngitis I ever had. But I stuck with the mms. My illness lasted 2 weeks. I added the Bactrim back in twice a day after the first week. I am so much better now. I did not think it was posible to ever feel this good again. And my improvement was almost overnight
I will now slowly add in other supplements. I like paragone very much and it seems to help. And I probably should add in molecular silver.
At this point, I am convinced this is the only route to take to comletely get rid of this. There is no other solution that works. I am not stupid enough to wait for the medical profession to find a cure.
I hated doctors 40 yrs ago and I hate them even more today. It is an embarrassment today to be a doctor. They should be ashamed by their arrogance and ignorance.
Mel - where would I be without you?? On psychotic meds, dead..I can't even imagine living like this without hope. You gave us hope to look forward to living our lives as normal as possible.
The step we all need to take is stop hiding and to group together. To meet, to have chapters across the country. To march in Washington, to picket the White House. The fact that we are all in the closet is the biggest problem in fighting this. |
If you can not get the medical support you are seeking,you still have the means to getting !.Kathy
I know it is important to find a doctor if you can. My problem was not being able to find one in my area that would take me seriously. Finally,after much expense and humiliation,I found this protocol.
I have used it to get from pain and despair to having my life back. After this experience,life could not be sweeter.
My point is,if you can not get the medical support you are seeking,you still have the means to getting better. Yes it is costly,but not as costly as going from doctor to doctor to find help.
I firmly believe that MMS kills this and the supplements build the immune system. God bless and keep us all.

Monica - "The Protocol is Amazing!"So,week two starts today. So, I thought I'd give an update. The protocol is amazing! I'm so grateful for it. There were a few days where I had some herx-ing going on. But, because I've done a parasite cleanse in the past, I knew what the lethargy, bloating etc. was. So, I've been able to function quite well.
I'm happy to report a lot of the biting, stinging, crawling sensations have diminished on my body. And, my new best friend has been a lint roller to get fibers off of me (I have no leisions). I've found that my nightly scrub of coconut oil and epsom salt to be very effective, to getting the weird white 'hair' like thingys to come out. And, I rinse with ACV, borax in water to remove any strays.
As stated before, my scalp has been my biggest issue as of late. I've been soaking it in MMS... speaking of that; I'm getting used to the smell and taste. I don't know if its my determination or what, but, I now find that horrid smell comforting as I know that a lot of natsies will be dying everytime I drink it. And, that--that's encouraging! ;-) So, my scalp has been pushing out a lot of the white specks... at the most inconvenient of times. Like um...is it normal to have almost like a invisible volcanic explosion of white specs flying from your scalp??? And, is that indicative of them dying? Clarification on that would be helpful, as I've scoured the site and cannot find the answer.
In any case... Thanks sooo very much every one of you. I am getting better, the protocol, my diet, D.E. and multi-vitamins are helping. Oh, and I'm losing the mysterious weight I'd been putting on over the years. Now, of course, I believe it was parasite and candida related... While this experience has been quite horrible at times, the blessing that is all of you has made it less so. Thank you, many blessings and rapdid healing!

Mel,
Thank you so much for your response. I appreciate it. You are correct, I'm here to restore my health, and, therefore will be diligent in following the protocol, as well as reading and listening to all the information here.
Just a brief report regarding day one. The silver is just amazing, and the MMS--whoever said hold your nose while drinking it, is BRILLIANT! There's all sorts of crystals, specks and fuzzies popping out. And,the fact that I keep my skin moist with petroleum jelly treated with tea tree, clove and eucalyptus-- most of the time, makes it easier for the ickies to get out. I agree with, 'better out than in.'
By nature I'm a positive person. I believe if given the correct tools to do its job, the body will and can heal itself. And,I'm just so grateful that you, and so many others have provided me with tools to get better.
By the way Mel, I hope your surgery went well. You're already such a fighter and inspiration, so...I'm sure you'll be up and at 'em in no time.
Many blessings,
Monica

Hello Monica,
Welcome.
I can feel that you have come here with a purpose;to restore your health. I can sense that you have read a lot and made the decision to proceed with the protocol.
If you are diligent and totally committed, you have a great chance of restoring your health.
Please continue to read as much as possible and listen to the conference call archives. Read the testimonials when things get tough; see that others have restored their health as well.
Thank you for your kind words and faith. I will be watching you as you slowly return to the life you had before Morgellons.
God Bless, Never give up HOPE!
Mel

Started the protocol today... already happy with the Logos supplements and silver. I'm feeling really encouraged. Also soaked my scalp with MMS last night. I don't have a bathtub, so, the bathing part may not be an option. If anyone has suggestions on how to use MMS in a shower...please let me know. Thanks again for your help.

Hi Monica,
It is good that you got right on to treating yourself which hopefully will mean that you will have an easier time in getting a handle on it.
If your scalp is your main problem, be sure to soak your whole head as long as you can when you do the mms bath. It will wreck havock with your hair (may even bleach it out) but you can use tree tea oil conditioner or try something that others have recommended in prior posts. Watch the diet and your urine ph. ld

I first want to say it was a blessing to find this website. And, though I'm actually talking for the first time, I've already ordered the logos and A2Z products to start the protocol.
I'm pretty sure I got Morgellons this summer after having a horrible experience in my basement apartment with fleas and bird mites, as a result of the wet winter the east coast had last year. Luckily for me, as soon as I realized what what happening to my body, I thought of morgellons... I should mention, I've been able to maintain a certain level of health through the usage of Food Grade DE earth, raw vinegar, essential oils (tea tree and clove have been a huge help), supplements (neem, alfa have been amazing), etc. Although, my scalp is now my main problem, its also the most annoying. I am looking to free myself of this sooner rather than later. And, all of you are helping in this fight. ;-)
I just want to say thank you to everyone who has posted here, especially Mel. I think you are all amazing for fighting for yourselves, while the medical industry either ignores this or sits on its hands regarding this disease. I'm reading articles in earnest, and will soon be starting the protocol. |
