The present invention relates generally to a disease detector device. More specifically, the present invention relates to a Morgellons disease diagnostic device. The Morgellons disease diagnostic device of the present invention comprises a round transparent glass bead or the like, attached to a simple hollow tube used in conjunction with a magnet. The unique device uses magnetic means for attracting and absorbing microorganisms that may be in a patient with Morgellons parasites into the glass bead. Using the magnet, Morgellons parasites' outer electrons gain energy, which is dissipated as light, thereby allowing a user to view the parasites easily. Accordingly, the present disclosure makes specific reference thereto. Nonetheless, it is to be appreciated that aspects of the present invention are also equally applicable to other like applications, devices and methods of manufacture.
By way of background, Morgellons disease (MD) is a disorder characterized by the presence of fibers underneath, embedded in, and erupting from unbroken skin or slow-healing sores. MD is an emerging dermopathy with worldwide distribution. The name “Morgellons” is derived from a disease recognized in the seventeenth century in French children by Sir Thomas Browne. The most common symptoms of MD are the presence of small white, red, blue or black fibers under, on or erupting from sores or unbroken skin, causing the sensation that something is crawling on or under the skin.
In many cases, Lyme disease may be accompanied with Morgellons disease. The presence of Borrelia organisms and a spirochetal infection is generally associated with MD. In many clinical trials and studies, species of Borrelia including Borrelia burgdorferi, Borrelia garinii, Borrelia miyamotoi and Borrelia hermsii have been detected in skin specimens taken from MD patients.
Presently, a patient or individual cannot diagnose MD at home easily and must visit a doctor to diagnose MD. To diagnose MD, a doctor observes if a person has slow-healing skin lesions and skin-crawling sensations. If the doctor finds fiber-like material in the skin lesions, a sample can be sent to a laboratory for further analysis. The process takes a lot of time and in the times of pandemic, the patient or individual may not always be able to visit a doctor. Further, there is no specific cure for Morgellons disease, however, individuals who suffer from MD have been found to benefit from medications that treat psychosis or tics.
On many occasions, the doctor may not be able to correctly diagnose the MD. This can be extremely harmful for the patient and his or her caretaker. Also, treating MD can be difficult or nearly impossible, depending on several different factors. Thus, there is at least a need for an accurate and cost-effective approach and method for diagnosing MD for medical professionals and individuals at home.
Therefore, there exists a long felt need in the art for a Morgellons disease diagnostic device and method that offers a unique, inexpensive, and accurate method of identifying Morgellons disease-producing microbes. There is also a long felt need in the art for a Morgellons disease diagnostic device and method that can be used by both doctors and individuals at home. Additionally, there is a long felt need in the art for a Morgellons disease diagnostic device and method that captures the MD parasites easily. There is a long felt need in the art for Morgellons disease diagnostic device and method that illuminates the parasites, thereby allowing them to be observed easily for a considerable period of time. Further, there is a long felt need in the art for a Morgellons disease diagnostic device and method that can be used for capturing parasites from the skin and any exposed tissue easily and conveniently.
The subject matter disclosed and claimed herein, in one embodiment thereof, comprises a Morgellons disease diagnostic device. The diagnostic device captures microorganisms that can be found in an individual with Morgellons parasites. More specifically, the diagnostic device includes a transparent round glass bead, a hollow cylindrical tube and a magnet. The transparent round glass bead, or the like, is positioned on the top of the hollow cylindrical tube and captures Morgellons parasites and other co-infections.
The magnet excites outer orbital electrons of the parasites to create energy that is dissipated in the form of light, thereby allowing the images of the parasites to be visible with excellent resolution.
In this manner, the novel Morgellons disease diagnostic device and method of the present invention accomplishes all of the forgoing objectives, and provides a relatively safe, easy, and convenient solution to identify and capture Morgellons disease-causing pathogens. The MD device of the present invention is also user friendly, as it can be used by an individual, a patient, a caretaker or a medical professional. Additionally, the Morgellons disease diagnostic device can be used for any exposed skin tissue, along with the dermis, and for co-infections as well. Co-infection is the simultaneous infection of a host by multiple pathogen species, for instance multi-parasite infections. Co-infection also occurs as simultaneous infection of a single cell by two or more virus particles, which can arise incrementally from the initial infection to a superinfection.
The following presents a simplified summary in order to provide a basic understanding of some aspects of the disclosed innovation. This summary is not an extensive overview, and it is not intended to identify key/critical elements or to delineate the scope thereof. Its sole purpose is to present some general concepts in a simplified form as a prelude to the more detailed description that is presented later.
The subject matter disclosed and claimed herein, in one embodiment thereof, comprises a Morgellons disease diagnostic device. The diagnostic device is configured and designed to capture microorganisms that may be in an individual or patient with Morgellons parasites. The diagnostic device further comprises of a transparent round glass bead, a hollow cylindrical tube, and a magnet. The transparent round glass bead is positioned on the top of the hollow cylindrical tube and captures Morgellons parasites and other co-infections. The magnet excites outer orbital electrons of the parasites to create energy that is dissipated in the form of light, thereby allowing the images of the parasites to be visible with excellent resolution. The parasite and co-infection can escape from the round glass bead, and the round glass bead can be reused by the patient or user.
In a further embodiment of the present invention, a portable device for capturing Morgellons parasites and co-infections is disclosed. The device comprises: a hollow tube; a round transparent glass bead attached to the top of the hollow tube; a magnetic means of absorbing Morgellons parasites of an individual with Morgellons into the glass bead wherein the Morgellons parasites outer electrons gain energy; and, the energy is dissipated as light which allows a user to view the parasites in the light for observation.
In yet a further embodiment of the present invention, a method for capturing Morgellons parasites and other co-infections is described. The method comprises: initially, using a magnet to excite outer electrons of Morgellons parasites within a skin tissue area, under a dermis layer, or on a body part of a patient or individual; dissipating energy of the electrons in the form of light; capturing Morgellons parasites in a transparent rounded glass bead; and, observing movement of the parasites using the dissipated light. The method of the present invention offers a unique, inexpensive and accurate way of identifying Morgellons microorganisms and the extent of the spread of the disease.
In yet a further embodiment of the present invention, the detection device obviates the need for a user to use a magnifying glass or any topical gel to detect and diagnose Morgellons parasites and other co-infections. The parasites can be easily seen in the dissipated light and can be observed in motion for hours. Parasites from dermis, or any exposed tissue, can be easily detected using the method and device of the present invention. It is to be appreciated that the dermis layer is the layer of skin that lies beneath the epidermis and above the subcutaneous layer. It is the thickest layer of the skin and is made up of fibrous and elastic tissue.

They are not intended as an exhaustive description of the invention and do not limit the scope of the invention. Additionally, an illustrated embodiment need not have all the aspects or advantages shown. Thus, in other embodiments, any of the features described herein from different embodiments may be combined.
As noted above, there exists a long felt need in the art for a Morgellons disease diagnostic device and method that offers a unique, inexpensive, and accurate method of identifying Morgellons disease-producing microbes. There is also a long felt need in the art for a Morgellons disease diagnostic device and method that can be used by doctors in a health care setting, and used by individuals/patients/users at home. Additionally, there is a long felt need in the art for a Morgellons disease diagnostic device and method that captures the MD parasites easily. There is a long felt need in the art for Morgellons disease diagnostic device and method that illuminates the parasites, thereby allowing them to be observed easily for a considerable period of time. Further, there is a long felt need in the art for a Morgellons disease diagnostic device and method that can be used for capturing parasites from skin and any exposed tissue easily and conveniently.
The present invention, in one exemplary embodiment, comprises a novel portable device for capturing Morgellons parasites and co-infections. The device includes a hollow tube, a round transparent glass bead attached to the top of the hollow tube and a magnetic means of exciting, attracting and absorbing Morgellons parasites of an individual with Morgellons into the glass bead. The Morgellons outer electrons gain energy, and the energy is subsequently dissipated as light which allows a user to view the parasites in the light for observation.
Referring initially to the drawings,
During use, the magnetic means excites outer electrons of the Morgellons parasites. Energy of the parasites caused by the excited outer electrons is dissipated in the form of light, allowing the parasites to be clearly visible. The parasites, once illuminated, are absorbed by the round transparent glass bead 102. Due to the energy of the parasites, the parasites are seen in the dissipated light and can be observed in motion for hours, thereby allowing for easy capture by the glass bead 102. The device 100 along with the magnetic means 106 offers a unique, inexpensive and accurate method of identifying Morgellons disease-producing microorganisms and the extent of spread. The visually illuminated parasites are visible in the transparent round glass bead 102 and any co-infection can escape from the glass bead 102 into the hollow cylindrical tube 104, thereby separating Morgellons parasites from other co-infections.
The magnet 106 can be permanently attached to the hollow tube 104 or can be removably attached to the tube 104. The magnet 106 can be used separately to excite the outer electrons of a parasite. It should be noted that the imaginary magnetic lines of force of the magnet 106 are distorted by the parasite 204, and thus cause illumination of the parasite 204. A small electromagnetic force is applied by the magnet on moving electrons of the parasite 204 for illumination.
The transparent glass bead 102 of the detector device 100 glows in the dark due to the illumination of the captured parasite. The detector device 100 is useful for capturing Morgellons parasites with co-infection as well. As per the preferences of a user, the magnet 106 can be selectively coupled or integrated to the detector device 100.
In one embodiment of the present invention, a method for capturing Morgellons parasites and other co-infections is described. The method comprises: using a magnet to excite outer electrons of Morgellons parasites within a skin tissue area, under a dermis layer or on a body part of a patient; attracting and pulling the Morgellons parasite from the skin tissue area or dermis layer; dissipating energy of the electrons in the form of light; capturing Morgellons parasites in a transparent rounded glass bead; and, observing movement of the parasites using the dissipated light. The method of the present invention offers a unique, inexpensive and accurate way of identifying Morgellons microorganisms and estimating the extent of spread of the disease.
It should be noted that the detector device 100 easily captures the Morgellons parasite and co-infections and obviates the need to use a microscope or magnifying glass to view or access the parasites. An individual/user/patient can see the parasites in light that results from the magnetic force. The parasites can be seen in excellent three-dimensional resolution in parallel light. Parallel light or a parallel light beam are light beams that are parallel to each other when coming from the source of light.
