Re: 2 different products more specific for flukes

JS Mom, your post and the recent findings that a virus causes Chronic-Fatigue-Syndrome and Fibromyalgia. My adult daughter was diagnosed with Fibro a few years ago, could not work and moved home. After over a year of regular MD prescriptions of antidepressants, pain pills and sleeping pills and "have a nice life" treatment she found a rheumatologist who specializes in fibro in April 09.

He brought this recent discovery to her attention in October and is so excited. He has been treating her for 8 months with a protocol of herbs and other nutrients including Iodine and daily smoothies of raw greens

She is finally getting better, using nicotine patches for pain instead of narcotics. The pain is now reduced to just the hands and feet and he said after a year of following his protocol she will have her life back. She has been regaining health steadily, especially since she is off prescription narcotics. The Die off is debilitating, as she heals she experiences the symptoms again.. on Doc Sutter's site he calls it "backing out" of the illness. When she first saw the the rheum. in April 09 I had to go with her because her brain fog was so bad she could drive herself nor even understand what he was telling her. I had to tell him her symptoms.

I went to the monthly appointments with her for several months and after six months she could drive herself and came home animated and full of the information he gave her about her progress and adjustments to the treatment protocol.

Since she moved home I have contracted Morgellons. I understand morg can be a co-infection of lymes and cfs and/or fibro. Thus, I am thinking virus caused? The recent study said the cfs virus may be contagious.

Where I am going with this lengthy post is - I am looking at the herbs shown at the sites you put up in your post and wondering if something like that would help morgellons. I have been focusing on the parasites that overwhelmed me right after the morgs came on this spring. I also had a nasty bout with mites in August.

You have experience, what are your thoughts?
