REMEDIES NEEDED

1 WARNING!

11/01/2009: Ted from Bangkok, Thailand writes: "Copper colloids and silver colloids are produced in the same way. If it's a shingles, the remedy is usually simply the use of lavender oil applied to the area of the skin to kill it. Some zinc supplements for a week usually or sometimes two weeks, usually 25 mg helps. I am currently investigating possible use of shingles using humic acid, seems to do the job also, as it is antiviral in nature."

11/02/2009: Deanna from Augusta, Ga replies: "Thank you Ted and EC for everything, Last night I felt sick,like something is wrong,my left thumb going from my wrist to the knuckles got red and I see these little red pin prick dots maybe 5 of them, I carefully inspected my body and they are in small groups all over, they have not ulcerated, it is like something is there and it tries to come out through the skin, not itching at all,my head feels a little pressure, maybe like sinus pressure, I do feel weak as this progresses,amazed that doctors have no understanding of what this is. I go to an infectious disease doctor in the morning and I really doubt that he will know, in my search for an answer I see a lot of people who have the same thing, little red dots and they too are searching for answers. One lady went to 22 doctors,Has half million she said in doctor bils and there is no answer. I do hope my girls get these pictures to you today.I know one thing, you are the most dedicated man and so full of knowledge and there needs to be thousands of people like you and the world would be healthy. I hope God gives you the biggest reward and blesses you tremendously, you deserve the best, no doctor anywhere compares to your knowledge. I know I worked with doctors many years and saw many horrible mistakes and some cost peoples lives with simple things like hydration, My daughter almost died and her baby if not for the anestesiologist got up pushed the doctor aside and saved my baby girl. I know food, water and air as well as a balance in the body have a lot to do with disease as well as a good immune system, I was reading a post of yours on keloids and again you are the most remarkable man.One doctor who looked at me, I know she had no clue what was wrong but said I must have one heck of a good immune ststem, the skin under attack, our largest organ and I am getting weak now from fighting whatever it is.I re-read the hypocratic oath again that doctors swear by,I have been given death sentences at least 5 times,I fought back but this still has been the most disabling. When I soaked my hand in ACV the swelling wet down and I am going to drink 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda with 1/2 cup of water. I am trying to make a kit of all that is listed here and print out pages of remedies and disease and put into survival kits for my children. If I had a million dollars hanging around I would send it to you for your research. Getting all these things are costlly, especially colloidal silver. We eat wrong , we need to get it right, a book of foods and what is bad and what is good. You deserve millions because to me you hold the key to disease,I would not say that to anyone else because your the only one deserving that in my eyes from all my reading here. I do wish my girls will come shortly so we can get these pics to you.

I just wanted to say you are brilliant and the best microbiologist in the world. I spoke to a well known man 1 elite family that said he will live while my family goes through another 5 generations, they took over the medical and I know you would know who they are.I feel God chose you to help us overcome disease through you knowledge. If I felt better then I could stay on top of this more. I just got l-lysine.I know I need my body balanced and then attack on all fronts with something that will kill bacteria,viral,fungal, a common denominator that will fight it all. If there is such a thing,again these red pin prick dots, some open to ulcerate and scab. Sorry to repeat it again. My daughter Shannon is sending the pics now from her cell phone, the ones on buttocks most of them are scarred and about 10 are sores. The white tips you see are not pus that is from bubbling it out with peroxide a clear looking fluid and these scabs are tough hard and tough Shannon is sending from her cell phone which is ______. I hope you have a chance to look at it before I go to infectious disease.

Sincerely, Deanna
p.s. I am sorry if I have become burdensome, I feel bad, I know your extremely busy."

11/04/2009: Lauren from Memphis, Tn replies: "Deanna,

I am one of the many who has a disorder known as multiple chemical sensitivities..... one of many disorders that are the result of the ubiquitous and careless use of everyday toxins in our everyday lives. The body can respond to these exposures in many different ways...everyone with this condition (or other environmental illnesses) can have different physiological responses, depending upon what the exposure(s) is.

I think what you may be experiencing my be a result of your living environment and the toxic elements it sounds like you are exposed to. In addition to your ailments, you also mentioned that the dog is losing hair, plus you talked about pesticides, sewer and environmental exposures. It sounds very unhealthy. Most doctors, and society in general, are absolutely clueless about this, even though it is becoming an epidemic (I am not exaggerating). Most people who are suffering or concerned about these chemicals believe that they are responsible not only for multiple chemical sensitivities, but also for fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, gulf war syndrome and the like. I, and many others also think they are contributing to the rise of diseases like lupus, MS, alzheimers, parkinsons, ALS, and the list goes on. I know two people who are getting veterans benefits for diabetes, as a result of chemical exposures during the vietnam war. Chemicals can cause a multitude of negative responses in the body. Unfortunately, it is not financially beneficial for the government or industry to admit to the negative health effects of chemicals in the products we use. I know this sounds bizzare, but I suffered for years from wierd symptoms that doctors were ineffective in treating....infact they made me worse with medications....this was until I became chronically ill three years ago. Now I know what I had been dealing with all those years, and it's not fun. Surprisingly enough, medications were the major culprit for me for years, as I became more and more intolerant...I am now totally intolerant of all medications, including asprin. Many people suffer day to day from chemical exposures without knowing the true cause. For 25 years, I was one of those people. Most people with severe environmental illnesses are unable to work or socialize,are generally confined to their homes, and the medical community is completely ineffective in treating them. Many chronically ill people can't afford to see a doctor of environmental medicine, as many no longer work or have spent their life's savings on worthless allopathic doctors.

Prior to WWII, there were virtually no synthetic chemicals. Since then, over 80,000 have been developed with another 1000 or so being developed every year. These chemicals are in everything we use: carpeting, fragrances, cleaning products, health and beauty products, furniture, paint, and of course, pesticides, just to give you a few examples. Look up multiple chemical sensitivities on line to learn more. Many sites list common symptoms for most MCS sufferers, but we all have our unique symptoms....again, the result of our specific exposure(s).

You say you are moving...that is good! If you haven't already found a place, try to find one that is not treated with pesticides, and one that is not new construction. Learn to use non toxic cleaners, like vinegar, baking soda and yes, hot water. Those chemically laden products are not necessary...we've just been brain washed to think we need them. Think about other products you use and try to find less toxic alternatives. If your body is suffering from toxins, it will heal better if you clean up everything. Avoidance is key.

I too am very thankful for this site, as it has helped me manage to stave off heath issues that I can no longer treat with allopathic medicines. If it weren't for my chemical sensitivities, I would be a very healthy happy person, living a very robust life.

See if cleaning up your living environment helps...it will not be an overnight improvement, as will most likely take weeks or months to see positive changes. If you can afford it (and still have the engergy), you may want to try a doctor of environmental medicine if you want to pursue medical support. Don't waste any more time and money on the general medical community. You already know they are worthless. I haven't been to her, but an EI doctor I spoke with in my area suggested Susan Tanner in Atlanta as one of the good doctors of environmental medicine.

I hope this helps. I understand how frustrating and miserable it can be, especially when you are on your own.

Take care,
Lauren"

11/20/2009: Deanna from Augusta, Ga replies: "Hugs to you Lauren, you are right on sopt as my friend in the UK says, I know it is the environment and I am going to throw everything away,that I can not clean because I know it is contaminated, my dog is better, his hair is growing and he has 1 little spot of hair left to come in and it is coming in nicely I used Ted's borax remedy and also put manuka honey on the red spots and he is better., I was going to go to Atlanta to see an environmentalist, now I have a name you gave me in your post, thank you. I have a pile of prescriptions here and they are not filled all for MRSA then I tested negative there are no boils or pus, they will kill me the side affects are awful and I am not a mouse to experiment with poor mice lol, I know it was natures way that got rid of cancer, 4 times. I am thinking this is of a fungal/ viral nature now. I spoke to a man who deals with soil and he said they can test it but there are so many different fungus, viruses, bacteria it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack, unless I can give him the name of it, he said soil without feces and urine has all that in it which all that and more comes from my wash water because my mom potties on herself and her bed I am lucky I did not get e coli or Mrsa from open sores he said now what has to be factored in the soil is contamination from urine and feces.

I was in nursing for many years I can tell you horror stories and watched people die because of errors, sheer common sense errors and I call it murder, that is why my mom and sister were here with me or my sister would have been a vegetable, so then I went back for a degree in psychology and worked for Charter hospital and I cried because all they wanted to do is drug children. I prayed so hard for God to shut them all down and at least here in Ga there are none unless Atlanta has some. I went back to private duty nursing and my last job was in 2004 and then I just stayed home with my mom and sister, she passed away in 2006. I wrote a book and taught it in the school systems here and donated it to United Way just for a teaching tool if anyone wanted to use it, I was teaching neurochemistry to middle school students and elementary students, It was titled Why Am I Supposed to Say NO !!!! I made the brain into a playground with slides and passageways (axons and dendrites) and the lock and key mechanism was a door with a key hole. All the neurotransmitters were characters and 1 was a bad guy who disguised himself as one of our own neurotransmitters to open the lock to get into the brain (the drug guy that mimics our own neurochemicals), I showed them how he puts on a disguise that had to look just like our own neurotransmitters, but all the while he fooled the brain and sent signals to our body and caused disruption to the way we think, feel and act, and death to our own neuro chemicals.They said I would make millions but I just used it to teach the WHY, in a very simple way they learned what dotors know about the brain, I just wanted them to understand the process and when given knowledge they would then be aware of what drugs do to our body, mind and spirit. I love this site, to think that Deirdre and Ted and all who post donate their time to help people and in Gods' eyes that is the right thing to do, I said 30 years or more ago that if everything else fell the medical field and military would still be around. The medical field is like any other industry now, all about money.I know that I need blood work and can draw my own if I could get it to Ted maybe Ted would test it, I know they could find out what this is and I know it has something to do with my blood, when I got bit or whatever happened on my rear end was a horrible pain and the reason I think it was a bite is because my rear end swelled up with hives and yes I scratched them it was the worst itch I can not explain it. I could have torn my skin off, so whatever I did it went into my blood from my possible scratching,all that is gone from there now except for horrible scars , maybe they will fade,I do not know. I know this is what spawned from that these sores, since I can not see what my rear end was doing I can only speculate, I can see in front red dots, some of them will open and they drain blood, some stay small, some get ulcerated and large those have a clear sticky fluid in them so sticky it stays in a puddle, it does not drip to the other parts of my skin, those I put peroxide on and it takes months of peroxiding for them to heal and they leave a scar.The red dots I spoke of before that appeared in my groin area come and go and 2 got eraser size scabs that opened in that area some time or another.

As I sat here and typed 4 small dots opened and bleed. Another thing, when I remove the scabs that have calcified, or plaqued, they bleed like a vein was severed.The reason I remove them when they get so large I have been treating them as a burn, because my whole body burns, wherever there is a sore it burns as if I was burnt by fire. I placed a drop of colloidal silver on 1 large ulcer that had sticky stuff in it and it broke the seal, I call it a seal because the sticky would not come out while bathing, water broke the sticky and the sliver did and when that drained it drained down and caused the skin to necrosis, I almost have it healed now,scrubbing dead flesh daily it was very gross, I have done this in nursing to the bone sores but on yourself it is different. My flesh was dying from whatever that clear fluid was. Do you know one doctor insisted I itched and I said no very seldom do these itch, they burn,I feel a burning sensation everywhere there is a sore. I have scratches under the flesh not on top like you would do with fingernails, it is hair thin lines under the skin. Ok I have red dots, if they get larger they open and ulcerate, they fill with blood and form a scab and if I remove the scab to treat underneath it bleeds like a stuck hog I have 1 in each ear now that formed a very thick scab and the only reason I knew it was there is it hurt and this happened in 1 day. It has clear fluid and it burns. I removed the scab and put silver on it but the last doctor insisted I was scratching but I am not the lines are under the skin not on top.I said it burns he said it does not ,how is that for a doctor. I also wanted to tell Ted I was just wondering about colloidal gold and copper I wanted to know if he knew anything about it, I had read people were making copper and gold colloidals but did not know why they did. I had my computer fried and was offline a few days and the Lord blessed me to make a way to get a new one.I have no social life anyway, I have to take care of my mom. I am tired of the burning skin and sores. I did read on here about milk of magnesia and I got some and started to apply topically, it seems to really dry it up. This is not spreading from me scratching , it is coming from red dots under the skin. I wonder sometimes if what bit me put venom in my body. I am getting a little brain fog and my sinuses stay plugged up ,also right before I moved here the neighbor said they sprayed something in the attic and I have enormous amounts of dust, I went in the attic and looked at it because it falls like soot would fall from a chimney, it looks grey and it looks like big clobs of dust. Like it was dust collected for thousands of years and sprayed in clumps in the attic and it falls down everyday. I dust and in an hour dust is falling and even under my refrigertor is a film of dust. I move that once every month to clean behind it and also keep the fan area free of dust. I think I will call that environmentalist that you mentioned. I know this was a long post and I love and appreciate all everyone has done for me and will still do. I am afraid this will get to my brain, my eyes since this has happened drain a clear sticky fluid too . I do not use a lot of cleaners, I use clorox and I use windex on glass, I use vinegar if I am out of windex.Once in a few years I may use pine oil for wood.I again Lauren thank you for helping me.....oh before I forget I have a neighbor who was very sick, no fever just real sick and I gave her aspirin 500 mg every 6 hours and today she said she feels 100% better.Maybe I posted that yesterday and apologize if I am repetive. Brain not clear. If anyone else has any suggestions please help me. TED I WAS JUST WONDERING ABOUT THE GOLD AND COPPER colloidal : ) I love you all and God Bless You !!!!!

p.s. The MoM seems to be working on the outside, I wonder if I take aspirin if it will knock out a virus in my blood. I cannot pay anymore doctor bills, I am on the edge of broke from doctors now.Again God Bless All !!!Deanna"

10/28/2009: Deanna from Augusta, Ga writes: "Dear Ted, I sit here in total defeat as to some unknown sores,I tested negative on a culture with blood on the culture and it came back negative for MRSA. 6 hospitals and 2 internist visits later and no one knows. I called environmental health, I have since turned my landlord into the county code enforcement and the sewer is closed I am looking for a new place to live, I was exposed to everything open sewer water brings, which I have never been exposed to, such as mice, 1 warf rat, tons of german roaches which I have been throwing everything away pesticides did not help because of all the water which is gone now. They were sited for many reasons and I still have these sores. I had another rash of pin point dots, the last time they went back under the skin, all that I have dried up, I did it with hydrogen peroxide topically, so can we call this an unknown skin disorder, it looks like red sores that open and scab and leave scars and some ulcerations on my skin,They are on my back both sides of my rib cage and stomache and 1 buttocks,I have 2 that are what I call renegade 2 on 1 buttocks. My hair and eyes at times itch but I will not touch it. I did have 1 I cleard right away that was fungal and after almost 3 months a red dot is in the middle of it sso I am putting an anti-fungaal back on it to see what happens. If anyone out there has ever had anything like this will someone please help me and what will cover, viral,bacterial,fungal, I have tried everything even got manuka honey. also if this may be a clue, I wake up with what looks like scrathces lines of red dots that look like a scratch but no scratches just red dots in a line .My daughter typed this for me so no caps. If doctors do not know then what do I do????? Die ????

Will someone please help my mom thanks,

Shannon

Please help us we know this is not medical advice but can you still try to help us since the doctors do not know or tell us you can not help so we will know."

10/29/2009: Phil from Dearing, Ga replies: "Hi Deanna. What I would suggest that you do, is to take pictures of your sores and e-mail them directly to TED with a list of your symptoms! Ted, is the one here who seems to have the most knowledge about illnesses.
I have read on the net, that MORGELLONS has been connected to nano-tech in waste water. Do you have any fibers or black specks coming from these sores? Do they itch or sting as if something is under your skin?

Go right here on earth clinic under AILMENTS and check out the pages on MORGELLONS, NANO-BACTERIA, MYCO-PLASMA, CANDIDA, PARASITES, SKIN INFECTIONS and any other pages here that might deal with skin issues. I have been reading Earth Clinic DAILY for years now and have barely scratched the surface. HAVE YOUR DAUGHTER to read these pages to you and try to narrow done what you think you might have.

But most IMPORTANT, Take those pictures and e-mail them to TED, along with a list of your symptoms and how and when they started. If it is parasites,there are alot of herbs and stuff you can try and you may even want to look at Ted's uses for BORAX ( THIS IS 20 MULE TEAM in the laundry section of the grocery store) Wormwood, Black Wal-nut, NEEM and CLOVE oil might also help.

YOU and your daughter will have to do the reading and research here though as to how to use these things. You may also want to make use of GOOGLE on these subjects I have mentioned. I love Earth Clinic, but there are other websites also and we can never get to much information. Information is education as to how to heal your body. Curezone.com may give you some information also. E-mail TED your pictures and symptoms, because he is the expert! The rest of use are learning just like you.

P.S. Also let Ted know, what you have already been tested for and the results. Tell him everyting. Sit down and write it out on paper and be sure you've left no stone unturned! Then send him that e-mail.

Hope this helps you."

10/29/2009: John Doe from Berryville, Arkansas, Ozarks replies: "Hi....for topical remedies, try using plantain. It is very powerful. Crush up and use as a poultice. A friend used it to counter a recluse spider bite which is very poisonous.

Good luck."

10/29/2009: Gean from Salina, Kansas replies: "If this was me, I would try MMS (sodium chlorite). Order on internet. Follow directions to activate. They say to start low, 1-2 drops in 1/4 teas. lemon juice, wait 3 min., add 1/2 c. water, drink. Increase by one drop every time, take twice a day. Myself, since I am impatient and want results fast, I would take 6 drops with 1/2 teas. lemon juice, then an hour later take another 6 drops. In Africa and South America they give 15 drops and follow with another 15 drops an hour later, and it cures like 100% of malaria. If those 15 drops times two doesn't kill anyone, I figure the 6 drops times two won't either. You might get sick to your stomach and throw up, but so what. That will pass. Of course, this is what I would do myself. Everyone should research and pray about their situation. I wish you the best."

10/29/2009: Lauren from Queens, Ny replies: "Hi Deanna: As I was reading yr posts today, I was thinking that this could be septicemia. I remember I had read a while back that this illness is caused by bacteria invading the body through the mouth and one of the symptom is a clutter of tiny blood spots like pin pricks on the skin. If I am not mistaken, you had mentioned on one of yr posts that yr skin have these spotson them. Maybe you can have yr daughter google it and see if this is what you might have. I hope this helps. I'll keep you in my Prayers.

God bless,
Lauren"

10/29/2009: Merryanne from Orange City, Florida, USA replies: "Hello Deanna and Shannon,,I will give you some suggestions, go to the grocery store and in the laundry powder area get a box of Borax powder, use this to put on your head, face and body,,you can put a cup full in some bath water and bath with it,,you can make a paste and put it in your hair, rub it on your body or do both, also 1/4 teaspoon in a cup of warm water and drink it, at least twice a day,,Now go and buy a bottle of MSM 1000mg, Vitmin C 1000mg, take it 3 times a day, get a tub of antbiotic ointment called Neosporn and put it on you skin after your bath, this has sulfer in it, all of this you can get at your local all purpose wally store,,this will take several weeks, but should be better in a couple of days. If you have some boils that are really swollen up, use cut raw garlic to rub on the skin. Merryanne"

10/30/2009: Tricia from Ireland replies: "Okay Deanna, This might just be your answer. If it is, removal of the problem is going to be tough. It sounds like you may have fibreglass insulation in your attic. I don't know a lot about it except that the people installing it here in Ireland have to wear protective gear head to toe. I knew two people who worked in a factory manufacturing the stuff in the U.K. so this is how I first heard about the dangers. It is an irritant to the skin, lungs, eyes and mucous membranes. I just did a quick google and looked at the following 2 websites. You will probably want to look further or maybe another poster may know more. Best wishes....

1. www.mbm.net.au/uss/fibreglass_not_good.html

2. www.howstuffworks.com

I don't know how to do that thing where you can click on a post an get straight through to the webpage so if I've got the addresses wrong let me know and I look 'em up again"

10/30/2009: Tricia from Ireland replies: "Deanna, I forgot to say that this fibreglass actually consists of tiny glass particles, some of which can be quite large and this may have been your original "bite"."

10/30/2009: Tricia from Ireland replies: "Asbestos - that's the other one I was trying to think of. This is another dangerous insulation that would be worth your while googling. Look up the skin rashes associated with these two materials to see is it any help to you."

10/30/2009: Deanna from Augusta, Ga replies: "Than you so much Merryanne, I have borax here and vitamin c, I will have to get the msm, I can drink the borax too? I also have neosporin .I want to send my love and thank you so very much for responding and caring about me ((((( Merryanne))))))- I will sure try it, and see if it helps. everything you do and the time you take to help me is so much appreciated and may God bless you for your sweet caring heart. People who care about others have the best hearts just like Deirdre,Ted, and all family here on EC, God bless you, Deanna"

10/30/2009: Deanna from Augusta, Ga replies: "Thank you Lauren and may God Bless your sweet heart, I did look it up and I have just the red dots but no other symptoms of it. You bring tears to my eyes as so many here too who are really tryin to help me with this, I do believe it is in my blood and comes out to form the sores. I can see the dots under the skin.Then they push through my skin . I know we will figure it out here on EC because of you along with others who have a blessed heart to do this. I want to say you have really touched my heart with the love and concern you have for me as well as all EC family. I really treasure this and your prayers,

God Bless you,
Deanna"

[WARNING!]  10/30/2009: Phil from Dearing, Ga replies: "Hi Deanna. I would go to the REMEDIES page here and look at the BORAX section as far as internal dosage goes. Ted actually recommends 1/8 teaspoon dissolved in a liter of water to be drank throughout the day for WOMEN!!! And for men it is 1/4 teaspoon in liter of water drank throughout the day.

I am not sure why Merryanne suggested the 1/4 in a cup twice a day... Maybe she knows more about it than me, but TED says 1/8 in liter of water throughout the day for women!

I would go to the remedies page and click on BORAX and read ALL that TED recommends.

I myself have drank the Borax 1/4 teaspoon in liter of water throughout the day for a six week period without any bad side effects. The way I done this was 5 days straight of Borax and and 2 days off...I think TED recommends 4 days on 3 days off.

I just would not want to get any bad side effects from using the BORAX ( I would be sure it is the 20 mule team in the laundary section and NOT boric acid )20 mule team ONLY! As far as bathing I can actually wash all of MY body and hair with borax. It's something like this 1/2 Tablespoon in liter of warm water 30 minutes before I bath and I do not have to rinse off. Borax is a fungus fighter and has saved the forrest of invading fungus. Read all about it on here!
I usally wash,then rinse, then pour the borax water over my head and body and let it air dry,( I do not use a towel to dry. )"

EC: Re: Borax, Merryanne wrote ..."1/4 teaspoon in a cup of warm water and drink it, at least twice a day"

Still -- far too much borax and not enough water.

10/30/2009: Deanna from Augusta, Ga replies: "Thank you and God Bless you, I will get all these things together and try one at a time and even if I did throw up it is much better then this. I really wish I find out what it is so we can post it here in case someone else ever has this ,I would never want anyone to get this EVER !!! Again I thank you so much for caring about me and everyone who has responded I am grateful from the bottom of my heart,with all my heart. I would love to set up something to keep all disease away, I was always told as others have heard an ounce of prevention is worth more then a pound of cure. I have been crushing garlic cloves and taking tumeric and pro biotics and hydrogen peroxide on the sores, not a fast process but it is closing the wounds but then more come so I need to find out what this is. Is there any possibility a small amount of venom from a spider could have done this or given me parasites the lines that look like scratches under the skin have me stumped.

God Bless you, Deanna"

10/31/2009: Phil from Dearing, Ga replies: "Hi Deanna. I been playing around on google and searching for red streaking on skin. And I have come up with BARTONELLA which seems to be related to LYMES DISEASE. I do know, that alot of people have reported believing that MORGELLONS and LYMES to be similar in some ways....

So was there any TICKS on you after working in your yard...Some ticks are very TINY and can be hard to discover and you have told us that you have poor eyesight. (Is it possible that maybe you got into some ticks ) Or it might even be possible that some unknown insect, parasite or mites are transmitting Lymes or Morgellons to people who are working outside in the soil and bushes/vines...

Sorry, I am not the best in the world with computers and I DO NOT know how to post these sources.

But if you will google BARTONELLA and LYMES DISEASE, also cat scratch fever came up when I searched for red streaking on one's skin. You can read up on this.

This also brings me to suggest to you to read on here about the MINI BEET PROTOCOL...Robert says it will cure LYMES and all kinds of NANO AND MYCO BACTERIA. I have considered doing this protocol myself, but I do not have a juicer and worry about the possibilty of getting gall and kidney stones. I just simply have not researched it enough to get comfortable with it yet. I would love to give it a try someday.

Check it out and see if this Bartonella is a possible cause of your condition."

11/01/2009: Phil from Dearing, Ga replies: "I forgot to mention,that I did read something about BROWN RECLUSE SPIDER bites sometimes give thier victims red streaking. You had ask could it been from a spider bite. I guess maybe so, ticks are from the spider family and if ticks can transmit lymes, I would guess it would be possiable that a spider could transfer a disease.

I would want to caution you on the uses of BORAX, both internally and externally. Alot of people warn of the dangers of borax as being toxic. And I DO NOT recommend for anyone to try borax internally or externally, I only report what I have done with my own body and what I have read on here that TED suggest for the uses of borax.

I have read on other websites that even in very small amounts BORAX can cause serious health problems...I actual read on naturalnews.com that the HPV vaccine for boys and girls was causing serious health problems because of the Borax in the shot...So EDUCATE yourself before making any decision on what you might put in your body or on your body."

11/01/2009: Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "Deanna: If you have a mystery diagnosis, with a probable virus, a humic acid paste solution applied, and dried, and rinse may clear up the viral issue. As to chemical toxins a wet bentonite clay solution applied and dried every five minutes should rid of chemical cause. If it's morgellon's, whose source is commonly from a sewer, then perhaps a mixture of colloidal copper and colloidal silver applied topically and taken internally. Another one is to take a bath in hydrogen peroxide in borax remedy. That means, the borax with a hydrogen peroxide concentration of only 0.5% applied ot the skin. This can be used on the dog too, as well as humans. To prepare a one liter solution, I would add 1/3 of 3% H2O2, plus 2/3 of pure water, plus 2 level tablespoons of borax, and stir vigorously. This is applied to the skin, unrinsed. Usually helps."

11/01/2009: Deanna from Augusta, Ga replies: "Dear Ted, I want to say you are the most intelligent, and amazing person I have ever known, far more intelligent the any doctor I know, I do not know if I could trust them with my pets. My daughters were busy this weekend but we took pictures of me, If you see an email from lil Lori comcast. net I think there may be an o in it not sure of that email, she has a few but will send from there, if not I will tell you where she sent them from. I have not felt real well and been taking ACV, my head feels like there is a little pressure there. I was thinking, I have severe back trauma and take pain meds they thought I had a broken back but have herniated discs and ruptured siaticas so I plain forgot to mention that because I think it may take surgery to fix, not sure I also have degenerative disc disease as well as my 28 year old and 22 year old.I am trying to say something here so let me get it out : ) I had 2 ladies in their 80's who have not seen my rash but asked if I had shingles, I said I do not know, I looked at images but I can not tell, last night I did not take any medicine for my back and all of a sudden I felt like I was stabbed in my stomache and rear and thigh and low and behold there were 3 red dots that appeared and hurt like crazy. They had no fluid I could see they just erupted through the skin they also were a bit raised like a mosquito bit me. I am so sick of being sick and not being able to be around my 2 little grandbabies. I did go to the section on shingles and applied ACV to my skin a few times before I went to bed and it did pull the red out, I just do not or did not have large groups of blisters like the pictures showed except in the beginning I had what I thought were hives that itched like crazy but since I can not turn my neck around to look all I can see is when my dauhters take pics of it for me.I know this it is internal and erupting into red sores that scab, they are all different in size. You beat the heck out of the medical field and give it to us from your heart and for that you will be grately blessed. Deirdre too will be blessed greatly. I have to look and make sure I replied to everyone, I do not want anyone to think I do not appreciate what they are posting to me, as I am so grateful to everyone. You are way beyond genius, truely amazing. I can take aspirin well. I have been on it since 84. I really ask God to bless you in the most marvelous way He can. With deep gratitude for all you do I thank you very much Deirdre too.

Sincerely, Deanna"

EC: Hi Deanna,

I will pass along your message to Ted, but please email the photos to me (deirdre@earthclinic.com) and I will send to Ted. Ted has been having a lot of problems with his email yahoo account (thousands of spam emails, many of which contain computer viruses) and not responding to many people because of the issues. I did get him to answer a bunch of questions this morning on Skype (instant messenger) and will continue to contact him that way.

Thanks for your kind words and blessings.. Much appreciated.

Deirdre

11/01/2009: Deanna from Augusta, Ga replies: "Thank you so much, I have seen that in the pet section and I have been treating my dog also using ACV for his arthritis, I will try it on myself, I just need to get the bentonite clay. I have the silver but not the copper, is it made they same way. I will do a search on it because it sounds like you are very busy and since there is only 1 of you then I will look for it .I am getting a machine so I can keep silver on hand. I did hear of gold also but I will look into that too. God Bless you, Thanks again for all you do.

Deanna

p.s. I will be moving soon so when I get started I will be offline for a short period of time.I go to infectious disease Tuesday morning and I have a feeling either they do not know or the 2 that said shingles, maybe had it right.

Eternally grateful to you, Deanna"

11/01/2009: Deanna from Augusta, Ga replies: "Thank you Phil for letting me know that, I also pray before I put anything in my body and if I get an uneasy feeling then I do not do it. I read a lot even with my eyes like they are, the computer makes it better for me to read, instead of the small print in a book.

I have been thinking of the hydrogen peroxide also oil pulling, but until I find out exactly what I have I did not want to pull poisions from my body that may hurt my heart if it is from a bite, so it is going to be better for me when I find out what this is. Thank you again and may God Bless you !!! Deanna"

11/02/2009: Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "Red dots you are referring can be a number of conditions, such as petechiae (blood seeping and low platelets), lupus (skin rash autoimmunity), telangiectasia, cherry haemangiomas, rocky mountain fever (unlikely), lyme disease (tests are not so good for this one), for example. Finding the names for these may also not have a name, but if observations are made as how the red dots occurs, helps narrow down the cause. Assuming it's a broken blood vessels, something is eating up the vessels (viral, bacteria) and caused a bursting. Keloids are one, but on a much larger scale and a few tried going to a tanning booth to reduce that. For the bleeding under the skin a quick remedy is vitamin K, which stops the bleeding. It's usually taken at 1 a day for two or three days. Should the cause be known, and assume it is a virus, then a humic acid pastes is applied to that area since this is a broad spectrum antiviral, although humic acid does has it's problem, in that it's poorly absorbed through the skin. Vitamin C, and hourly lysine may also help if the cause is of coure viral, and maybe taken at the usual hourly doses, for four dose, as just a test to see if the problem is an immune system issue, and it's viral in nature are some of the things. Vitamin C helps the body repair the broken blood vessels and the dose is usually 1000 mg a day, sodium ascorbate. A bacteria maybe reduced in number with an epsom salt bath and magnesium supplements. A fungus if that's the one, although maybe not, there's always the borax. Most hemorrhagic type of red dots do not generally respond to hydrogen peroxide, but the do respond to antiviral, such as taking some humic acid internally with distilled water of course, 1/8 teaspoon and applying the paste is one test to see if it's a virus, by doing this test. But a quick and dirty remedy is likely to be vitamin K and vitamin C as one stops the bleeding, and the other helps in the repair, and in the meantime, finding whether it's virus, fungus or bacteria through a simple, but crude tests outlined here. Lysine hourly dose for a total of four dose is but one factor to raise the immune system, and a general increase in immune system with lugol's solution 2 drops per day in a cup of water either once or twice a day. Too much causes headaches, but may usually be reduced significantly with either one or both taking 2000 mg to 4000 of taurine and/or potassium citrate (or potassium bicarbonate) at 1/4 teaspoon, assuming that your sodium levels are normal of couse when you take the potassium. If not just take 1/8 teaspoon of sea salt in a cup of water. Wait about an hour then take the potassium bicarbonate or potassium citrate."

11/04/2009: Deanna from Augusta, Ga replies: "Hi Phil,I live right up the road from you. Some people I know go to a little church there called dearing full gospel ,I think that is the name.I just know it is not far from here.I like you am amazed and grateful to Ted and I truely believe he is blessed by the Lord and chosen to help us. I saw a post on here once about a survival guide. I want to get this all but this is like going to a university for 12 years and then only someone with love and dedication to this practice and years of research and things always changing with superbugs etc,I have no words that can really express what these 2 people mean to me,Deirdre and Ted.In my own opinion just mine I feel as though a lot of this was man created disease. That is my thought.I know the Lord did speak of food so to me that is a key .It makes sense to me anyway.What does not make any sense to me is what I have and still am going through and really getting tired of the medical field they need a new health reform but not Obamas way and I want to remain a lady here but oh boy what I could say about this mess, what a mess. I went to an infectious disease doctor today spent all of 5 minutes at the most ,I took in my paperwork, all I have had done recently and my culture that said no bacteria was found, I showed him every inch of me, new red dots in a group, below my shoulder. I am no doctor ,I do not want Mrsa period. I spend hours on here looking at things, I have no boils, no pus,I was bit by something, got a bad case of hives on my L rear end,scratched that and all that is left is scars, then these little under the skin red dots appeared, under the skin,when they opened a tad bit of clear fluid came out, short of this driving me insane, I am now reading everywhere that many people have little red dots they can not explain, some never come to amount to anything some open as small red dots,they may get a little bigger they do not drain in any way, just a small to the touch of clear fluid not enough fluid to give a nano insect a drink with. I got to get some humor here.This is getting me wore down, tired, sometimes afraid,especially in the last day or two,my left hand swelled and was red, it has at least 10 or more pin prick dots., I remembered when my sister was small she had staph the flesh eating kind and it was in her hand same place almost as in the hospital nursery same hand but in a thumb, Well back then penecillin worked til they started giving it to everyone even for a stubbed toe.I just can imagine a monsterous mad man in a lab somewhere creating a germ that antibiotics will not kill, and Ted is coming at these germs with everything that is good for us an army of fellas that are killing the germs : ) well this is what I paid 120.00 for 5 minutes.He did not get a nurse although I asked for one , I said this is in some under the cover kind of places.Well off came the cloths ,I showed it to him ,back went the cloths and in breif I told him what I typed here, a bite,then hives, that cleared to leave scars then red dots,nothing the doctors gave me worked, not even the topical. I showed him what I thought was a place on my upper belly that I finally put an anti-fungal on and 2 days it was gone, it had the most horrid green slime come out first then the horried yellow then went away, BTW this first looked like a bruise, nothing more, I told him the white tips were from peroxide which seem to be the only thing clearing it up , OH NO he said never use peroxide on your skin for any reason at all, it damages the skin, I am little but feisty, I just wanted to really give him a piece of my mind.Hydrogen perodide is the only thing that is bubbling something out then it finally dries it up and it closes.I wonder what he would think if I told him I took my first drops of h202 internally :O I bet he would lye down and have a cow.Again red dots some fade others open and turn into an ulcerated sore and the scabs are tough as a rock.Well he said tell me are you allergic to anything,anything different in your diet, etc,etc everyone knows what they ask, I already knew by this time he had no clue what this is.Then we went environmentally, sewer etc, he sparked up yea this is a fungus, a fungus ???? what kind??? is there a name , He said nothing, just go home rip all the carpet out and bleach everywhere. I rent, the county is making them tear the carpet up common sense, germs carried in from shoes etc from sewer water. I know there are many germs in the carpet,germs are everywhere common sense. I just do not think this is fungal, 2 reasons my left hand started swelling and now in just a few hours,on my left rear,where all this started,I felt like I was being burned. I looked and there is a spot that looks scalded, it really looks bruised, but seems to the touch like it was burned,like my hand it hurts and I kept putting colloidal silver on it, til the red came out , it looks like it is trying to come out and I soak it in silver.Some of the red dots as I said before come but then go back under the skin.The others open to ulcerate,they are red, various sizes, form a very tough scab,That eventually falls off to leave a scar.On one pic I sent there is a line it looks like a scratch, I have at least 10 of them, on my legs and back and the doctor said do not scratch,I have not scratched anything, just initally when I got bit and the hives came out.So he gave me Lortisone a topical prescription, he does not know because upon leaving ,he said well if they do not go away then I will send you to a dermatologist.Also sometimes my eyes drain and itch and sometimes my head will itch as if I am allergic to something.I figured this, to get my body back in balance make sure my ph is right, then attack this on all sides, I need help in doing this please ,how to check my ph and get balanced and then what will attack bacteria,virul,and fungal. Is there something that works for all.I feel pressure in my head and in some places like my arm I feel bruised ,it is sore and a hard lump like feels like a bruise but nothing is there, it is not a lymph nod.I do not know if that is important or it may be unreleated.I am standing on the word, in exodous , God said nothing deadly will harm me,and I am hoping that I am here because God brought here, He has always brought me where I need to be.I know this my skin is an organ and is under attack of some kind,I personally think it is in my blood, and coming out from under the skin in red dots, small red dots other red dots some will raise like a mosquito bite those ulcerate and scab. I just had a friend stop by and I showed them what has happened on my left rear end cheek, they said OMG it looks like the skin is dying, you better go to an emergency room. yes it looks just like in that area the skin is dying ,it looks bad. Please Ted I know you are far far away and extremely busy but I believe your my only hope.yea this looks like dying flesh not far from the original bite.

God Bless you and thank you ahead of time,
Deanna"

EC: Hi Deanna!

Ted has replied to you several times. Please read this entire thread on the "Mystery Diagnosis" page, which is where we've been posting everything related to your condition.

11/07/2009: Deanna from Augusta, Ga replies: "((((((((((Lauren))))))))) I have been to an infectious disease doctor and he does not know what it is, he said maybe I should go to Atlanta GA to an environmental specialist but I am broke now, all I have are prayers. One I put colloidal silver on and it was ulcerated and would not go away, the next morning it was closed and I swear it looked like necrosis from a burn. It burns, looks like a bad burn, like I took an iron to my butt. I finally got 1 red dot on my face that turned to a scab, maybe that will go away soon, but I have tons that are all over that lie dormat or something, I want to know if there a page with all vitamins and what they are for as I had heard of a survivals guide.

I have good news amen and amen my 14 year old chow has almost no sores and looks good, also the 2 ml per day of ACV is helping in his water, the arthritis in his hips too. Can I give him vitamins and what kind? I was bent he was not going to die with one sore on his body, maybe he will live another 14 years : )

Thank you for the prayers. It is hard to believe that no one knows what this is, I am ready to draw my own blood and get a scrapping and send it to Ted if he could figure it out. Sometines I still get stabbing pains where the sores are at. Oh well. God Bless you all goodnight."

11/11/2009: Deanna from Augusta, Ga replies: "Pityriasis Rosea

Hello, I did not know where to put this but after all I have been through a lot and many doctors who were stumped. 1 doctor said this maybe what I have or a fungas on my body, glad someone knew something, He is sending me back to my internist for a few tests, but I tried an antifungal on the rest, especially after I saw one that started necrosis, He did ask a lot about the environment also, because I am clean and have never had any skin problems, I do not know if anyone knows much about this disease and I sure did not know a fungus could necronize, did I spell that right : ) also I just stopped everything to regroup, all but colloidal silver on a few that were not healing but looked like a clear fluid in them and it was sticky. That is a fungus.

If anyone has any feed back for me please let me know and maybe you could add this to your list in case someone has sores but has no diagnosis from the medical field.

My love to all,
Deanna

From: http://www.webmd.com/skin-problems-and-treatments/tc/pityriasis-rosea-topic-overview

What is pityriasis rosea?

Pityriasis rosea is a harmless, common skin problem that causes a rash. Although it can occur at any age, it is seen most often in those between the ages of 10 and 35.

See a picture of pityriasis rosea.

What causes pityriasis rosea?
The cause of pityriasis rosea is unknown. Unlike many other skin conditions, it is not an allergic reaction or caused by a fungus or bacteria. Some experts think it may be caused by a virus. But neither signs of a virus (such as its genetic material) nor symptoms of a viral infection (such as a fever) are found in everyone with pityriasis rosea.

What are the symptoms?
Pityriasis rosea causes a rash.

The rash often begins with a single, round or oval, pink patch that is scaly with a raised border (herald patch). The size of the patch ranges from 2 cm to 10 cm. The larger patches are more common. See a picture of a herald patch.

Days to weeks later, salmon-colored, 1 cm to 2 cm oval patches appear in batches on the abdomen, chest, back, arms, and legs. Patches sometimes spread to the neck but rarely to the face.

Patches on the back are often vertical and angled to form a "Christmas tree" or "fir tree" appearance.

The rash usually does not itch, although there may be mild itching. About 25% of people with the condition have a mild to severe itch.1

The rash usually lasts 6 to 8 weeks, but it can last up to several months.

The rash may take other forms. Rounded bumps (papular rash) may be seen in young children, pregnant women, and people with dark skin. Blisters (vesicular rash) may be seen in infants and young children. In some people, the herald patch may not appear, or two herald patches may appear close together.

Before the herald patch appears, you may feel tired and as though you have a cold. You may have a headache, nausea, sore throat, and loss of appetite.

The pityriasis rosea rash is similar to the rash seen in other skin conditions, including ringworm of the skin, tinea versicolor, eczema, and psoriasis.

A rash similar to pityriasis rosea also can be caused by syphilis and by certain medicines such as antibiotics.

How is pityriasis rosea diagnosed?

Your doctor will diagnose pityriasis rosea by looking at the rash. Diagnosis can be difficult when only the herald patch is visible, because the condition is often mistaken for ringworm or eczema at this time. After the rash appears, diagnosis is generally clear.

If the diagnosis is unclear, your doctor may do a potassium hydroxide (KOH) test to make sure the rash is not caused by a fungal infection. A skin sample may be taken from the infected area and examined under the microscope (biopsy). If the diagnosis is unclear in a sexually active person, a test for syphilis is often done"

EC: Thank you for keeping us updated, Deanna!

11/11/2009: Dj from Pdx, Or replies: "Deanna,

I have had really good results with Bromelain against fungus. It is a pineapple enzyme and really inexpensive. When I have itchy ears or my sinuses are starting to plug up I take up to 8 pills in the morning and about as many at night. (whatever you are comfortable with). Make sure you drink a lot of water if you give this a whirl.

If you do try this I hope it helps."

11/11/2009: Phil from Dearing, Ga/usa replies: "Hi Deanna. Have you read on here about The Mini Beet Protocol?

It is under REMEDIES on here and sound almost to good to be true! But it does make sense, that it would work because or the detoxing power of BEETS and Asparagus... I do know that asparagus is a powerful KIDNEY DETOX, I use asparagus extract daily to help with blood pressure, as it helps cleanse and flush the kidneys. And Beets detox lots of nooks and crannies and I think the LIVER as well.

It sound pretty simple and I think the key will be to start slowly and work your way up, with the amounts of juice. Robert, tells all about it on his page and alot of other people on here are currently on this protocol and reporting POSITIVES! Look at Lisa from California LATEST POST on here. Her and her husband have had some GREAT results so far...I am going to give this a shot in the near future... My mother in law just gave us a brand new juicer she bought for her self and did not like. She found out about me wanting to do this protocol and decided, to give us an early Christmas present. There are some suppliments that need to be taken as well, and I need to be in the right frame of mine when I try this. It would be worth looking into and does not seem to be to exspensive.

By the way, have you tried any of TEDS recommendations yet?

One anti-fungal you may want to try is extra virgin coconut oil. You can read about its uses on here also. Also you may want to use an anti-fungal soap, like maybe Tea Tree Oil Soap.

Even if it was parasite and the parasite is killed you could still have Myco-Plasma or Candida according to Ted. These things seem to linger long after the parasite is gone. There is also, a PH balance page here on EC, I know you have ask for help in this area as well.

Hope you get well soon!"

11/15/2009: Lauren from Memphis, Tn replies: "Deanna,

Lauren from Memphis here again. Sorry I talked so much about chemical sensitivities without relating more to your situation. For years ,I have and still continue to have hives, acne, rashes, and sores that felt like they were burned into my skin. For years, I never understood what was causing this...it just didn't make sense. I have had patches that have stayed for months, grown in size, disappeared and then came back again. These, I realize now, resulted from intolerances to medications and environmental toxins....new construction, including paint, carpeting and new furnishings.

You mentioned something about the county removing carpeting. Have they removed and replaced your carpeting? Has your home been sprayed with pesticides or have you brought anything new into your house before all this started. It could also be a reaction to a soap or laundry detergent you might be using. I know that my eyes itch and burn around certain chemicals, especially those in carpeting which contains, among other things, formaldehyde. You also mentioned medication for your back.....did this skin disorder start after you started taking that medication? Reactions to medications can result in many odd, unexplainable symptoms. Even if you tolerate medication for awhile, symptoms can develop at a later date if your body develops an intolerance. How long has all this been going on, and do you have other symptoms in addition to the dots/rashes? You did mention pressure in your head. If you are having reactions to medications or something in your environment, I'm afraid your condition won't clear up until the offending substance is removed. Do you have a relative you could go stay with for awhile to see if a change in environment makes a difference?

I'm so sorry you wasted your time and money on that infectious disease doctor. They don't realize the damage they do to people who are so in need of help, when they spend so little time and show so little concern. Sometimes I wonder how they actually look themselves in the mirror when they so easily take a person's money and do nothing for them.

You mentioned the sewer again...what is going on with that? Glad your dog is doing better. Now you just have to get better! God bless you and may he help you find the answers to better health.

Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.

Lauren"
