Possible Reason Why Lab Tests are Negative for Parasites

I'm no scientiest, but I'm wondering if the reason so many lab tests are negative for parasites might be because the Morgellons critters do not have RNA or DNA. Possibly the labs don't have a test for them. Maybe if we sent them some samples from the environment they could create a test for them. Anyone have any thoughts about this?

Do any of you test positive for the Morgellons parasites? Just wondering. This illness is so perplexing. Edith

Dear Edith,
Parasite charateristics are limited to those that have been discovered and verified per centers for disease control.There is a list of possible parasites that each lab examines and looks for.Even if the thing is moving all over the place,it does not exit if it does not meet the criteria of any known enity.
Also,there is the very real prejudgement of neurosis or psychosis.We know what we are dealing with but since others haven't experienced it,it is easier to dimiss.Often in the medical community,things that don't fall into the usual categories are difficult to diagnose.There is also the need of the practioner to be accepted.Championing a group of suffering people in untread territory is not a safe path.Everyone who takes this road runs the risk of ridicule.Many times the fear of professional damage outweighs the compassion we wish was inherent in our medical caregivers.
My prayer is that there will be concerned,compassionate people willing to take a brave stance and give us what we need.my fear is that there will be many more affected people before they take a serious look.With all we don't know,they are seriously putting themselves at risk by denying this exits.I feel it is a possible epidemic in the making.
God bless and keep us all

Thanks for your comments. But why wouldn't Metametrix labs strive to come up with a test for the Morgellons parasites. They aren't mainstream and they have a special person, according to Pamela Crane, who oversees our tests, so they are on our side and trying to help us. Maybe labs don't create tests, I don't know who does. I was also reading a site about bird mites and saw so many similarities--everyone from exterminators to doctors telling the sufferers they found nothing, information on clearing their homes and bodies not easy to find except on special internet sites, and so on. However since bird mites are insects (which Morgellons parasites are not) they can be tested and test positive. All the best, Edith
