Morgellons disease

I have seen a few of these looney toons in the ER. Several of them brought in samples in plastic bags that included carpet and yarn fibers, tissue, seeds, and other obvious plant material. All those who consented to testing had urine drug screens positive for methamphetamine. I have not seen anything mysterious that is not explained by mental illness but I will keep my mind open.

I am an RN who gives infusions of gammaglobulin to a young woman with CVID.She developed the itching, stinging, biting and crawling sensations on her skin about 9 months ago. She had previously been exposed to a mice infestation in her home which was a converted barn. I think she also was exposed to bird mites.
This woman is covered with lesions and I have seen the “fibers “that she pulls out of her skin. She has been to countless doctors who for the most part think she is nuts, and gave given her the diagnosis of “delusional parisitosis”
I am appalled at how these dermatologists and infectious disease doctors have “turfed” thier responsibilities to care for thier patients.We probably will never know what the heck these fibers are, but we have many people who are SUFFERING with horrible symptoms. Saying that these people self mutilate is ridiculous. This woman would have to be picking 24/7 in order to have all the lesions that cover her body. Not to mention being ostracized by family and friends. I think the medical community should start treating these patients symptoms, and push the CDC to do thier job.
