How I Cured Morgellons Forum Response

Hi Donna and Marie,

I just want to weigh in on the "stuff" that we see and offer one way to measure progress in your environment that I have found helpful.

A lint roller is my main tool in this endeavor.

I just roll, roll, roll it around areas (especially fabric) and note the difference. In the beginning, I had a lot of tiny black fibers...I'd roll and tear off a sheet and roll again and repeat.

I'd almost go into a melt down when I'd continue to roll and see fibers. I was rolling and crying and tearing off little sticky lint roller sheets and throwing them everywhere. Obviously this is upsetting, so sometimes I'd have to limit myself on this "test."

However...slowly...and over time, the fibers lessened and are now almost gone...I only get them occasionally.

I suggest using the "lint roller test" because it can pick up even the tiniest of things.

However...please be careful not to get obsessive with this and attribute any miniscule speck to being Morgellons related, like I did. Common sense will tell us that is not the case, and you have to take out your common sense along with the lint roller when you do this...lol...at least that was the case for me. I have to have a firm talking to with myself not to get weird about it when I start rolling.

This is the main reason I haven't purchased a microscope. I know myself and I know I'd go into OCD weirdo meltdown with examining anything and everything found anywhere on or around me.

It just doesn't pay to get too obsessed with it, but it does help to note an improvement if you can handle the lint roller test without getting upset.

Not throwing stones here...because I'm the one who can get obsessed about as fast as anyone else...maybe even faster...just sharing a "label warning" about the lint roller test to keep my friends from falling into the same ditch I have in the past.

If you can keep your wits about you, you can even lint roll yourself...I'd found tiny black fibers on my forearm a year or so ago...but no longer. So...this is not for the feint of heart. Only do it if you can keep things in perspective. Seeing black fibers is upsetting...but seeing it go away is really wonderful!

Love,

Karen
