So, If you are here you are obviously wondering what Morgellons
Disease is? Well, Morgellons, also known as Morgellons Disease
or Morgellons Syndrome is a controversial skin disorder that,
according to The nonprofit Morgellons Research Foundation,
affects more then 10,000 people at last count.
The term "Morgellons disease", was first used in
1674 by an English doctor named Sir Thomas Browne. He used
the term to describe what he called "black hairs"
that were found emerging from skin legions found in children.
Although the term first used by Sir Thomas Browne is the same
name used today to describe what the Morgellons Research Foundation
claims to be the same signs and symptoms it is not thought
to be the same disorder but is merely used to describe a set
of symptoms that are so similar that the same name can be
applied to both.
