I have been having uncontrollable itching all over my body since this thread came out and all I can think of is about this thread.
I sure hope that wasn't really a joke, you know, there are articles being written even today in professional psychiatry journals that Morgellons is an internet disease and nothing more. I've wept over those who have died from this, I know of some close to death now, there are some on our forums deathly ill whose posts have caused me to cry sitting right there in my cube at work hoping nobody can hear me. Often, its first timers who have found our forums asking for help, at thier wits end, talking of ending it all, feeling insane.
Here is a story just posted in the news of a man who claims to have cured himself:

No joke.
I was afflicted with Graves when I was young and many have been locked up for that being blamed as a mental disorder also.
I ended up in the ER with a heart rate over 200 IIRC and years of suffering prior before a Doc caught on.
Life has been rough with living post graves with what the synthetic hormone does to the brain/body. BUT I am alive.
Itching is usually a one of the signs I am low it is coincidence it started when I read about your afflition.
Being toxic is like being autisitic or mentally challenged.
I get blood draws every 4 months to adjust doses.
I dont question your affliction or suffering at all, been there.
