I first started having symptoms in May of 2020, but didn't find Mel's site until sometime in fall of 2021 and started on the protocol on 10/23/21. It all began when I started experiencing severe itching around the fold or crease between the thigh and groin. I looked it up and it is called the inguinal groove, or crease. It was as if something was crawling under my skin like mites or parasites. Around the same time that happened one day I felt like I had been bitten by something, and my backside was red. I went to urgent care embarrassed but tried to find answers. They told me to try over the counter creams which I tried such as clotrimazole, miconazole, and butenafine hydrochloride. And they prescribed a couple doses in pill form of a yeast medication called fluconazole and said it looked like a yeast rash. Not long after that it began to come out in other areas that began to itch and be red too. I also tried an online virtual doctor, and they basically said the same thing and prescribed the same medicines. They did not help. Not long after that I noticed on my pillow there were little black fibers. I changed my pillowcase, and they were there again the next morning. My head began to itch uncontrollably. I ordered Ivermectin through Tractor Supply. This did not seem to help me. After having so much itching on my head and other areas, I ordered a microscope that could hook on to my phone. I will not go into detail here, but I recommend you stay clear of microscopes. It will only disturb you. Around the same time, I started noticing what looked like things flying past my eyes. It was like dust and fibers coming out of me and flying past my eyes. There was a lot of dust in my house I could see each time the light shined through the windows. I purchased air purifiers, ionizers, and an air scrubber along with mold bombs to try to clean the air at home and at work. I have also dealt with floaters which to me seem to be the fibers in my eyes. This is very annoying. I use silver drops and MSM drops to try to help. I see them in my contact case after soaking my contacts overnight, so it seems they are coming out of my eyes. I went to a Dermatologist and told him about the itching and what was going on and he didn’t even examine me, but prescribed a cream called Tacrolimus which did not work. I went to another dermatologist who prescribed a cream called Econazole Nitrate and sold an over-the-counter powder, Carpe. He seemed agitated, annoyed, and insisted that there was nothing wrong other than irritation. I went to him a second time and he agreed to do a biopsy of the inguinal crease to send to pathology to test for parasites. The result came back negative. I had done research and was thinking I needed itraconazole and was telling him and he got defensive saying he was the doctor and all I had was irritation that would go away with an antifungal cream. I said it is not helping. He said it takes time and not to come back if I won’t follow his instruction. I said you won’t even look at my rash. You have not examined me. He finally examined me. I said don’t you see the fibers? He refused to admit he saw them and said it just looks like irritated skin. Keep in mind he was looking at my skin with a handheld lighted microscope tool. I know he saw them. He basically told me to leave and not come back unless I was willing to just use the cream and follow his instruction. I went to my family doctor and told him everything. He was understanding but couldn’t help. I showed him pictures on my phone. He prescribed a very expensive anti-parasitic medication called Albendazole in pill form that was only a few doses worth. It did nothing to help. I went to another family doctor through Duke, and he ran a series of STD tests and all came back negative. He had also prescribed a cream, Clotrimazole and Betamethasone Dipropionate. I went back again and tried Ketoconazole, but it didn’t help much. He said he was sorry, but he did not know how to help me. After searching and searching for answers online I found a cream called Kirkman Zinc Sulfate that I read was supposed to help with candida rashes. This cream is so strong as it is the sulfate version of zinc, and it gets absorbed deep. At this point it wasn’t just in one area. That cream brought things out, but not in a pleasant way. If I put that cream on at night, the next morning I would have bumps form that I was able to pop and release stuff from. I am assuming this was some kind of bacteria or fungus that I was getting out. This bacteria or fungus would come out of the skin, dry up, and then peel off of me over the next few days. It was a process. After using it one night I would have to wait a week or 2 to let everything peel off and then try again if I was still having issues. The dried-up skin looking stuff I was peeling off had black stuff in it, I am assuming these were fibers that came out with the bacteria/fungus. It looked like black mold. I could see this was helping so I continued to do this cycle maybe 6-7 times. I am estimating as I didn’t keep a journal of it. It was not a pretty sight, and I felt like I was living through a sci-fi movie. As Mel says, it is the worst sci-fi movie you will ever live through. This did help quite a bit in some areas, but it was tough to use it. I tried this in an area I did not have any issues on, and it did nothing. So, there was definitely something to it working where it was needed. Another topical medicine that helped when the itch was bad was Mary’s Medicinals Transdermal Compound, but is not legal to buy or use in every state. Another item that helped me topically in the beginning was Lugol’s Iodine, but you also have to be careful, and it may be best to test diluting it with coconut oil first. Kleen Green has been a lifesaver along with WPS and Stevia drops. (The Hallelujah Treatment!) Alafia Coconut lotion has helped also. Kleen Green helped bring things out when applying and rubbing. Other items that helped were Rainforest Pharmacy’s Amazon A-V Topical, N-Tense Topical, and A-F Topical tinctures. EmuaidMax and Walgreen’s store version Homeopathic First Aid Ointment. And finally, what I have been using recently has been Vick’s VapoRub. I didn’t realize that the Camphor, Eucalyptus oil, and Menthol are antifungal. And it is fairly inexpensive. Before I found Mel's site, I was hospitalized with diverticulitis on July 4th, 2021. I had to deal with a lot of pain and discomfort dealing with the diverticulitis. From the research I have done it seems like the diverticulitis could have been caused by the mold/bacteria/fungus causing permeability in my intestine. This was around the time I started a new job. I was losing weight rapidly having cut out carbs and sugar and with the stress of the new job and dealing with the mental strain of this sickness I began to have panic attacks at work. One day I had one and could not even speak or make sense of what was happening. I went home and couldn’t speak or make sense. It was so scary. Thankfully it passed and I was better the next morning. I started taking a mold herb protocol in September 2021 from ReturnHealthy.com, but only took it for maybe one month. This was right before I started the protocol that I was prescribed from my Integrative Health Specialist and Mel’s protocol. I finally went to an Integrative Health Specialist in Chapel Hill on 10/5/21, and I took with me samples of fibers in a small jar. I told her everything about what I was going through and she believed me. She understood. She even mentioned Morgellons before I did and asked if I had samples. I guess maybe she was experienced with patients bringing these in. She looked at them and said yes you have Morgellons. She started me on a protocol with a few supplements including GI Revive and Biociden to begin to help me heal. I also had a lot of bloodwork and labs done. After praying to God for help for what I was going through I was searching online for the symptoms and came across Mel’s website, www.howicuredmorgellons.com and read a lot on the site. Finding a random site and not knowing whether it was still active or legitimate I was uncertain. It took me a while to gain the courage, but eventually I called Mel and began to tell him about what I was going through. I had a call with Mel and John and decided to get on the protocol on 10/23/21. The protocol has greatly helped with restoring my gut lining. So in the very beginning I was on a few supplements from my Integrative Health Specialist and started Mel’s protocol during the same time at the approval of John B. and Mel. In 2024 I was having severe pain and my Dr. sent me to a urologist and I had an ultrasound in which they found a cyst and a clot. All they wanted to do was pain meds unless it gets very bad and in this case they do surgery. After doing research I was able to control and eventually get rid of the pain by using nattokinase and RSO. I also ended up in the hospital in 2024 with a kidney stone. I have now found out that certain foods are high in oxalates which can lead to calcium oxalate stones. I had been eating a lot of almond butter and other products made from almonds such as almond flour, almond bread, and almond milk. I have since tried to cut out almonds. So much in keto contains almond. In addition to dealing with Morgellons, diverticulitis, clot/cyst, and kidney stone I have also had to deal with Covid 3 times, and been sick with Flu a few times over the past few years as well. It has definitely been a trying time for my health. I thank God for leading me to people who have helped me and using them for good to help people. I thank Mel, John (Logos Nutritionals), Peter, Kathy at Natural Ginesis (Kleen Green), all the folks at Natural Immunogenics (Sovereign Silver), and 1Ness (WPS). Ways that I ponder I may have gotten this: I worked in a severely moldy hotel and consequently brought mold home and into my car. Mold was found in my body confirmed by testing. It was the same type of mold, aspergillus and a few others found in my body that were also found in the hotel in which I had worked. Could this be a hyphal form of the mold? My car’s back door drain hole became clogged and allowed my back right floorboard to collect water and mold. I didn’t find it for a while, so the mold developed in the car. My son and I were both bitten by a horsefly in 2019. It bled instantly on both of us. Given the timeline that I was sick almost a year later and the fact that my son also had some symptoms leads me to believe that this may have been the vector that infected me with some type of bacterial/fungal infection. At our previous house a bird nest was discovered built in the dryer vent opening that opens to the outside of the house. Not sure if mites could have made it to our dryer and gotten in the clothes and bit me? Or come through the wall because that vent was on the same wall as our bed. I think we may have had mold at our last house. I always thought I ate healthy. And many of my choices were. But when you start to cut out sugar you realize how much sugar you have been eating. And I was addicted to ice cream, cookies, and donuts. Could this be a hyphal form of candida? Not only that, but I had been overindulging in alcohol for many years, especially more so around March 2020 and on with the stress of Covid and how my job changed during that time. I am happy to say that I cut that out completely back in 2021. There could be more than one thing that I have been dealing with. As is often said on the conference calls, there are many coinfections that we deal with in Morgellons. In summary, I went to many dermatologists and other doctors who had no idea how to help me and only wanted to push a cream or pill that did not help me. Even the Integrative Health Specialist didn’t have much more to offer and was very expensive to visit. Thankfully I finally came across Mel’s site and protocol. Through coaching Mel has helped keep me on the path to getting completely well. He has helped to answer any questions I have had during this experience. The forum, conference calls on Saturday, and prayer calls on Sunday have been a huge benefit. Things have greatly improved, but I still have a little longer to go to get completely well. The protocol has helped me and my health so much. I hate to think of where I would be had I not found Mel’s site and the protocol. I will be forever grateful to Jesus and Mel. I pray healing over everyone on this site and community. | ||||||
