A mysterious skin disease is spreading across the country... It may be a co-infection of the already nasty Lyme disease.  Aids, Lyme disease, the bird flu, and now this.... Hmmmm!

Thousands of sufferers have been reported. The majority of individuals reporting symptoms of Morgellons Disease reside in California, Texas, and Florida.  Several distinct "cluster" areas of this disease have been noted (in order of cluster density) near Los Angeles, San Francisco, Houston, Dallas, and Austin, Texas.

The mysterious skin disease is spreading across the country.  It's a parasite-like infection that will literally make your skin crawl. Patients say it feels like bugs are crawling all over you. To make matters even worse, many doctors say the victims are delusional.

Five years ago, the Dills bought their dream home. Then, two years later, Anne, her husband and their four children all got very sick at the very same time. They think they have Morgellons, even though they have no idea how they would have contracted it. Morgellons is an unusual parasite-like skin disease, which produces irritating sores all over the body.

Anne’s 20-year-old son, Tony, also has trouble, "I itch all the time still. I scratch my back constantly. I use the wall when I can't reach my upper back.” The sores ooze blue fibers, white threads and little black specks of sand-like material. "The sores are very funny looking says Anne, “It's something we've never seen before.” The Dills say they're also plagued with a constant, creepy crawling feeling of bugs under their skin.

“I would lay in the bed and it felt like an army of ants just crawling over the bed, all over my body,” says one Morgellon’s Disease sufferer.

“It never goes away,” says another. “It doesn’t die, it doesn’t leave.”

Becky Bailey moved out of her Austin, Texas home and into a trailer hoping to escape the bugs that torment her. "We ripped out our carpet and burned our carpet and furniture and move out into our R-V and they were still one me."

Kaye Koeberle, a Morgellons disease patient from Houston, told a TV station reporter that an unexplainable growth caused her to itch uncontrollably before the growth felt like it had crawled out of her skin.

"When I would get out of the shower, it would itch so bad I could hardly stand it. One day, I was in front of the mirror and I could see these white things, five of them, just sticking out of my shoulder," Koeberle said.

Some patients said they have even tried to perform their own research to show doctors what is living beneath their skin.

"I took (a sample) and put it in a petri dish. Those filaments would grow and get longer and longer, and curl around the petri dish," Koeberle said.

What sounds like a science fiction movie is actually real life for the unlucky people who have contracted the disease which leaves painful sores all over the body. The sores ooze blue fibers, white threads and little black specks of sand-like material.

Ginger Savely is a nurse practitioner who specializes in treating the tick-borne Lyme Disease. She also has firsthand experience with the mystery disease. "Right now I think I have about 28 Morgellons patients,” says Savely. Savely says the antibiotics she gives to patients with Lyme are also working on some Morgellons patients. "It's just uncanny,” she says.

"I think this is like a horrible science fiction movie. First off, all you have is this horrible and scary situation going on in your own body that's different than anything you've ever heard of, so it feels like you've been inhabited by aliens, and then to add insult to injury, no one will believe you," Savely said.

Even though many doctors do not recognize Morgellons as a disease, Savely thinks the sheer numbers of people reporting symptoms add to its credibility. California is the only state with more reported cases than Texas.

"I can't believe the people from all over, all walks of life, would describe something the very same way if it were a delusion," Savely said.

The sickly skin disease has actually been around for centuries. In 1935, an English physician wrote a paper about Morgellon’s including excerpts from medical journals from the 1600’s, describing the disease.

Unfortunately, not much was known then about Morgellon’s -- and not much has been learned in the more than 400 years since.

Doctors don't know what causes the disease, who is at risk and exactly how many people may be suffering. The Morgellons Foundation says they have about 1,200 people registered on their site. Those are only people who have a computer and happened to find them online. The foundation fears the real number of people infected with this mystery disease is much higher.

Doctors said they have noticed that many patients who complain about Morgellons symptoms have also been treated or are undergoing treatment for Lyme disease, which suppresses the immune system. The doctors said when the immune system is corrected, the crawling feelings under the patient's skin is often corrected too.

According to the Morgellons Research Foundation:

Additional symptons include: An extremely high percentage of our members report the following: Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), Fibromyalgia (Myalgic Encephalopathy or ME), "brain fog" or cognitive decline, ADHD, mood disorders (primarily Bipolar Disorder and depression), joint swelling and pain, rapid visual and neurological decline, autoimmune disease, and hair loss. Many of these common additional symptoms appear to be related to inflammation.

Some of the symptoms and physical structures associated with this disease are unusual and may lead physicians to assume that the patient is misinterpreting their situation. Nearly all (95% of) adults with the symptoms of this skin disease have received a diagnosis of DOP or Delusional Parasitosis.

"Our Lady of the Roses" awesome Bayside Prophecies of pestilence, disease and war...

These prophecies came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica Lueken at Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995.

Our Lady of the Roses - "My Son has asked that I report to you that there shall be another plague upon mankind. Yes, My child and My children, another plague.” (10-5-85)

Our Lady of the Roses - "In the Holy City of Rome and in the country on the sea there will be a plague. In the country on the waters of England there will be a plague.” (4-5-75)

Jesus - "You have your chance now, as My Mother pleads for your cause, to stop what you are doing now, that displeases the Eternal Father; or you shall be sent, within the next year, a far worse plague upon mankind, if the great Chastisement hasn't already overcome you.” (6-6-87)

Jesus - "I know, My children, you are all heartbroken, but there are - many families are heartbroken because of the entrance of AIDS upon the world. Can I not say that you were not warned of this, My children? I tell you this now, there will come within a short time a greater plague.” (10-2-87 )

Our Lady of the Roses - "The existence of the Trinity, too, is being attacked. We are fully aware of what is going on. And I can tell you, My children, if there are not immediate changes, another plague shall be sent upon your country and other countries of the world. Eventually the suffering will be so great, if man does not repent, that there will be few souls left on earth.” (6-18-90)

GREAT DISASTER
"I repeat once more for your edification: your country will meet with great disaster. Floods, great heat, and the plague. The mercy of the Father has been extended to its limit. Only a complete reversal in your evil ways will avert the Chastisement planned by the Father for your country and the world." - Our Lady of the Roses, September 7, 1973

GREEN HORSE
Veronica - Our Lady is standing over by the right side of the tree, directly above it. And Michael now is remaining above Our Lady's statue, high in the sky. He's looking down, and he's pointing now over to the spear, with his spear onto the left side of our sky here, and there are letters forming in the sky, in black letters: "PESTILENCE AND WAR."

Now Michael is pointing with the spear, and there is a black horse running across the sky. It's a large black, ominous-looking horse, and it has a rider on it. The rider is dressed all in black; he looks almost like an executioner. He has a hood upon his head, and he's carrying something in his hand. I don't know what it is. It looks like a basket of some kind. Now behind him there's a green horse, and the green horse is, has also an ominous look. And now there's a voice crying: "Pestilence and sickness. Illness of the body. Pestilence, illness of the body." - August 14, 1976

CARNAGE AND PESTILENCE
"The red horse is war! And war is in the balance next, My child. And what can you do about this? This is My direction from Heaven—and We hope, My children, that you will get this out to the world: Unless the bishops and the Holy Father in unity with all the bishops of the world, unless they consecrate Russia to My Mother's Immaculate Heart, the world will be doomed! Because Russia will continue to spread her errors throughout the world, rising up wars and carnage and pestilence and famine. Is this what you want, My children?" - Jesus, June 17, 1989
