Dr. Nicholson responded very quickly and said I can share this info. His website is here but I'm not finding his Morgellons info there, it is just FYI:
www.immed.org/
This is his email:
"Although there are bacterial elements to Morgellons disease, it iscertainly more complex than Lyme disease or Mycoplasma (usually aco-infection in Lyme). Morgellons appears to have unusual elements of parasites and perhaps eveninsect elements (the fibers of some Morgellons patients havecharacteristics of chitin, an insect material). Although themicroorganisms involved have not yet been identified, I believe thatMorgellons will ultimately be found to contain a complex array ofdifferent microorganisms (for example, Lyme disease is a complex mix ofco-infections that include Borrelia, Mycoplasma, Babesia, Bartonella,Ehrlichia, etc.). One of the Morgellons co-infections is likely to be Mycoplasma, inparticular Mycoplasma fermentans, because Morgellons patients often havethis co-infection, but that is far from the whole story. As otherelements are discovered and confirmed, a more rational approach fortreatment will evolve. I have attached some general information on preventing transmission, etc.
Prof. Garth Nicolson"
Now how do I post a 6 page pdf file from him? It even suggests some things to do to manage this scourge.
Itchin, I sent it to your email address. I tried copying and pasting here but it lost some formatting. I'm headed to a b-day party and don't have time to work on it. Please share it if you can!
