1:05:07 AM | With the accompanying weight loss, your description of Morgellon's disease includes a differential diagnosis of lymphoma, and about thirty other blood cancers, as well as renal and kidney failure. But, what is most interesting is your findings for h.pylori, a spirochete bacterium. Note that several good peer review studies suggest Morgellon's is really a system manifestation of Lyme disease, a spirochete bacterium. See http://f1000research.com/articles/2-25/v1 . In my own experience, I cannot think of a vector which might have caused me to become exposed to a tick, therefore, I suspect the authors of the Lyme disease/Morgellon's study link may have missed the possible h.pylori connection to the disease. It would make much greater epidemiological sense if h.pylori were the causative agent. |
