My skin is getting all creepy-crawly just reading this.

I agree. It sounds absolutely hideous. I'm sorry for anyone who has this disease and pray I never get it.

Interesting that it's in South Texas. My bet is that it originated in Mexico.

It would be a fair guess and those entering from there would spread it.

Of course. Illegal fuzzy alien viruses that crossed the border.

Link. Interestingly, the Morgellons support groups call the disease contagious.
Given the connection with Lyme disease, perhaps it's from Connecticut.

Illegal fuzzy alien viruses that crossed the border. Just doing the infection that American viruses won't do.
Of course the new Congressional bill will allow them to remain here.

The obvious key is the connection to Lyme. I did a few searches and PCR isn't helping.
Thanks for the facinating post.

More searching yields some medical comments to the effect that treatment of Lyme disease affects the immune system. Correction of the immune system probelms seems to help Morgellon disease.

No one knows how Morgellans is contracted, but it does not appear to be contagious. The states with the highest number of cases are Texas, California and Florida.
Well...that is odd. Sad that the patient took his own life.

Hard to believe that this is not a hoax.
To: Responsibility2nd
It's interesting the article says the most cases of this disease or in South Texas, South Florida and California. That's also where most of our illegal immigrants are too.

If the patients have been diagnosed with a disease that has a name, how can they be crazy?
To: Responsibility2nd
Can you imagine having a bad case of shingles that never dries up? Ouch!

Yet we read that it's not contagious, so let's not turn this into yet another hijacked thread about illegal immigration.
