May be the following web-adresses can provide food for thoughts:

They both deal with the concept of biofilm, which makes fungi, bacteria and viruses go stealth with respect to the body's defense systems and also protects these organisms from most chemical and antibiotic attacks.
From the first article, it can be deducted that different kinds of organisms can live together and benefit from each other's biofilms, thus forming colonies. They communicate and establish synergies.
May be biofilm made by fungi (candida or other) facilitates or promotes biofilm production by (normally) less efficient biofilm producers. May be it also provides shelter for organisms that are not capable of producing biofilm at all. May be even that the presence of a fungus overload is a prerequisite for the formation of multimicrobial colonies.
From the other article, it can be deducted that wounds (or skin) infected with organisms in biofilm will behave like our skin does. The article is the most comprehensive I could find, long but easy to read.
The concept of biofilm certainly provided me with a number of a-ha's; F.ex. with respect to the blod clotting that sometimes can be experienced with the lesions - and certainly why these "things" seem to be able to adapt to absolutely everything you throw at them.
May be the differentitated functions in the biofilm also can explain the "spikes" (or shark-teeth as someone called them) that are present underneath the calluses as biofilm produces attachtment "pods".
As fas as the fibers are concerned: There are a number of microbial organisms that produce pigments and (fluorescent) colours. There are also plenty organisms that produce filaments, filaria or needles, and it is not outside all logic to think that odd fabrications and combinations may take place in a multimicrobial polymer soup like a biofilm. It is also not outside logic to think that the biofilm sucks up nanoparticles, fibers or other alien material, like inhaled dust bugs, that the body normally would flush out, if they get stuck in a mucous membrane or pass by in he bloodstream. Such particles may be used as building blocks or just assembled and excretet, if of no use. Nutritious use, that is. The waste material will certainly be covered in biofilm, and thereby serve as a vector when it leaves the body.
Biofilm is apparently negatively charged and will glue itself onto positively charged particles such as blood cells whereafter it will search for smoth surfaces for permanent fixture, be it cartiladge, bones, teeth - or hair. Thereafter the colony will grow and put pressure on the surrounding tissue, causing pain, svellings, puffiness and irritation and considering what the organisms can do on an indivial basis, there will be no end to the list of symptoms that these things can cause. A biofilm blob on the jaw bone would definitely be felt in the teeth, wouldn't it. Also the roots might be eaten on in some way.
Because the microbes are colonised, therfore also more or less stationary in the tissue, the different participants in the colony are not likely to show up on blood tests. As well, specimen(s) from a tissue biopsy will not necessarily let itself be cultivated using common laboratory methods.
The pathogens will most probably be of an opportunistic nature. This means that they are omnipresent in our surroundings and in us, and that they are part of the normal human fauna, thus innocent, even benevolent (although most of them will be ageing agents in the long run), when the bodily chemistry is in balance.
Some such opportunists are certainly candida, staffylococci, pseudomonas and methylobacteria and with respect to blood tests: Should there be some free floating ones to be found in serum, their numbers will be within the so called normal range.
How to find them, then? Logic tells me that even if these microbes themselves escape detection, their output or waiste will have to enter the blood stream.
Behind this theory lies the following: Apart from (finally) being positively diagnosed with candidiasis, my blood tests keep coming up with very high B12 levels. Normal range is pmol/L 170 - 650, whereas my count is 1450. Brilliant sais the doctor - the more the better - particularly for your CNS. Popular thinking between medics in my country is that B12 prevents/cures most ailments so almost everybody gets B12 injections. I obviously do not need any of those, but should one really be bursting with B12? And why do I have completely numb patches, twitching muscles, twinges and tingles if my CNS is in such a polished state. So I google along and find that the most common pseudomonas variety produces B12. Therefore: Although pseudomonas are part of my normal flora, I must be overloaded with them. But my immunesystem doesn't react to this the way it should (fully blown infection with fever) and why is that. Two possible answers: My theory is either totally off - or the pseudomas have found a way to duck my defenses. In addition I (also) seem to be getting a lot of "sprouting" help in the (wrong) hair-departments and I think that certain methylobacteria might be behind this phenomenon.
As well, the process of making the biofilm itself will require nutrients - therefore the blood counts will be low with respect to such nutrients. Certain amino-acids, for example.
I need validation that I have connected the dots correctly, which I will try to get via my GP. If I am correct, we are already doing most of the rigth things in the "remedies department". I am, however, doing some "guinea pigging" on myself based on the chemistry and boilogy of biofilm - which seems to work - but I want confirmation that I am on the right track - as the results of my present selfmedication indicate that such treatment should take place under supervision...
Agrobacterium, pink pigmented facultative methylobacter (PPFM's), bascillus thuringiensis and other little monsters used in agriculture are all opportunistic and fit right into the picture. Bacteria used in the water cleansing industry such as pseudomonas fit into the picture. They are innocent under normal conditions, but devastating in biofilm mode. When approval is sought for the use of these, the innocent side is presented - when applied (in masses) they are most likely already in biofilm.
When cotton fibers on the Q-tip move, there is a likely explanation for that in my view: They are either covered in PPFM biofilm or they contain innoculated PPFM's. PPFM's are activated in the presence of humidity, light and warmth. The fibers are after all "flagella" growing out of the cotton seed and the purpose of the PPFM's is to help the seeds in finding optimal conditions to attach and germinate. Also PPFM's bind nitrogen which contributes to the production of more seeds.
Candida produces alcohol, whilst PPFM's might use alcohol (ethanol) for nourishment in as much as they are facultative on methanol. (They are bread i methanol). Doing the maths: If you only have a candida problem, traces of alcohol should turn up in your blood. If you have both germs, no alcohold will turn up in your blood - and so on.
BIOFILM certainly seems to walk like OUR DUCK to me.

If the web-adresses don't work, send me a PM with you e-mail and I will forward "hard copies" of the articles.
I owe big thanks to this board for all clues, suggestions, remedies and thoughts, and more than anything: For my present mental health.
