Siyini isifo seMorgellons?

Isifo i-Morgellons (MD) yisifo esingajwayelekile esivezwa ubukhona bezintambo ngaphansi, ezishumekiwe, nokuqhuma esikhunjeni esingaqhekeki noma ezilondweni eziphola kancane. Abanye abantu abanalesi sifo nabo bathola umuzwa wokukhasa, ukuluma nokuhlabana ngaphakathi nasesikhumbeni sabo.

Lezi zimpawu zingaba buhlungu kakhulu. Zingaphazamisa imisebenzi yakho yansuku zonke kanye nekhwalithi yempilo yakho. Isimo asivamile, asiqondakali kahle, futhi siyimpikiswano ethile.

Ukungaqiniseki okuzungeze lesi sifo kwenza abanye abantu bazizwe bedidekile futhi bengazethembi bona nodokotela wabo. Lokhu kudideka nokungazethembi kungaholela ekucindezelekeni nasekukhathazekeni.

Ubani othola isifo seMorgellons?

Ingaphezulu kwe-14,000 imindeni ethinteke yi-MD ngokusho kweMorgellons Research Foundation. Ocwaningweni lwango-2012 olwenziwe yiCenters for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) olwafaka ababambiqhaza abayizigidi ezingama-3.2, ukusabalala kweMD kwaba.

I-CDC efanayo ikhombisa ukuthi i-MD ivame ukubonwa kwabesifazane abamhlophe, abaneminyaka ephakathi. Omunye ukhombisile ukuthi abantu basengozini enkulu ye-MD uma:

• unesifo seLyme
• bavezwa umkhaza
• ukuhlolwa kwegazi okukhombisa ukuthi ulunywe umkhaza
• une-hypothyroidism

Ucwaningo oluningi kusukela ngo-2013 lukhombisa ukuthi i-MD isatshalaliswa ngomkhaza, ngakho-ke akunakwenzeka ukuthi itheleleke. Abantu abangenayo i-MD futhi bahlala namalungu omndeni angavamile ukuthola izimpawu uqobo.

Imicu nesikhumba okuchithekwayo kungadala ukucasuka kwesikhumba kwabanye, kepha akukwazi ukubatheleleka.

Ziyini izimpawu zesifo se-Morgellons?

Izimpawu ezivame kakhulu ze-MD ukuba khona kwezindwangu ezincane ezimhlophe, ezibomvu, eziluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, noma ezimnyama ngaphansi, kuvuliwe, noma kuqhuma izilonda noma isikhumba esingagqabuki nomuzwa wokuthi okuthile kukhasa noma ngaphansi kwesikhumba sakho. Ungase futhi uzizwe sengathi uyalunywa noma uyaluma.

Ezinye izimpawu ze-MD ziyefana nezesifo seLyme, futhi zingafaka:

• ukukhathala
• ukulunywa
• ubuhlungu obuhlangene
• ukulahleka kwememori yesikhashana
• ubunzima bokugxila
• ukudana
• ukuqwasha

Kungani amaMorgellons eyisimo esiyimpikiswano?

I-MD inempikiswano ngoba ayiqondakali kahle, imbangela yayo ayiqinisekile, futhi nocwaningo ngalesi simo lunqunyelwe. Ngaphezu kwalokho, akuhlukaniswa njengesifo sangempela. Ngalezi zizathu, i-MD ivame ukubhekwa njengokugula kwengqondo. Yize ucwaningo lwakamuva lubonakala lukhombisa ukuthi i-MD iyisifo sangempela, odokotela abaningi basacabanga ukuthi kuyinkinga yezempilo yengqondo okufanele ilashwe ngemithi yokulwisana ne-psychotic.

Ngisho nemicu iyimpikiswano. Labo ababheka i-MD njengokugula ngengqondo bakholelwa ukuthi le micu ivela ezingutsheni. Labo ababheka i-MD njengokutheleleka bakholelwa ukuthi le micu ikhiqizwa kumaseli womuntu.

Umlando wesimo nawo ube negalelo empikiswaneni. Ukuqhuma kobuhlungu bezinwele ezimangelengele emhlane wezingane kwaqala ukuchazwa ngekhulu le-17, kwathiwa ngama "morgellons." Ngo-1938, umuzwa wokukhasa ngesikhumba waqanjwa ngokuthi yi-delusional parasitosis, okusho inkolelo yamanga yokuthi isikhumba sakho sigcwele izimbungulu.

Isimo se-fiber yesikhumba esiqhamukayo siphinde savela ngo-2002. Ngalesi sikhathi, bekuhlotshaniswa nokuzwa kwesikhumba esikhasayo. Ngenxa yokufana nokuvela kwangaphambilini, kwabizwa ngesifo seMorgellons. Kepha, ngoba kwenzeka ngokukhasa kwesikhumba futhi imbangela yayingaziwa, odokotela nabaphenyi abaningi bayibiza ngokuthi yi-parasitosis eyinkohliso.

Mhlawumbe ngenxa yokuzixilonga ngemuva kokusesha i-inthanethi, inani lamacala lenyuke kakhulu ngo-2006, ikakhulukazi eCalifornia. Lokhu kuqale isifundo esikhulu. Imiphumela yocwaningo ikhishwe ngo-2012 futhi ikhombise ukuthi ayikho imbangela eyimbangela, kufaka phakathi ukutheleleka noma ukutheleleka ngezimbungulu. Lokhu kwaqinisa inkolelo kwabanye odokotela ukuthi i-MD empeleni yayiyi-parasitosis eyinkohliso.

Kusukela ngo-2013, ucwaningo olwenziwe ngusosayensi wezinto ezincane eziphilayo uMarianne J. Middelveen nozakwabo lukhombisa ukuhlangana phakathi kwe-MD namagciwane athwalwa umkhaza, IBorrelia burgdorferi. Uma inhlangano enjalo ikhona, lokhu kungasekela umbono wokuthi i-MD yisifo esithathelwanayo.

Selashwa kanjani isifo i-Morgellons?

Imithi yokwelashwa efanelekile ye-MD ayikacaci, kepha kunezindlela ezimbili zokwelashwa ezisemqoka ezisuselwa kulokho udokotela wakho acabanga ukuthi kubangela inkinga.

Odokotela abacabanga ukuthi i-MD ibangelwa ukutheleleka bangakuphatha ngama-antibiotic amaningana isikhathi eside. Lokhu kungabulala amagciwane futhi kuphulukise izilonda zesikhumba. Uma unenkinga yokukhathazeka, ingcindezi, noma ezinye izinkinga zempilo yengqondo, noma uma uzikhulisa ekubhekaneni ne-MD, ungahle welashwe ngemithi yezengqondo noma nge-psychotherapy.

Uma udokotela wakho ecabanga ukuthi isimo sakho sibangelwa inkinga yempilo yengqondo, ungahle welashwe ngemithi yezengqondo noma ngokwelashwa kwengqondo wedwa.

Ukuthola ukuxilongwa kwengqondo ngokungalindelekile lapho ukholelwa ukuthi unesifo sesikhumba kungakhungathekisa. Ungazizwa ukuthi awuzwakali noma awukholwa noma ukuthi lokhu obhekene nakho akubalulekile. Lokhu kungazonakalisa izimpawu zakho zamanje noma kuholele kokusha.

Ukuthola imiphumela emihle yokwelashwa, sungula ubudlelwano besikhathi eside nodokotela ozinika isikhathi sokulalela futhi onozwela, ovulekile, futhi onokwethenjelwa. Zama ukuhlala ukwamukela ukuzama izindlela zokwelashwa ezahlukahlukene, kufaka phakathi ukuvakashela udokotela wezifo zengqondo noma i-psychotherapist uma kunconywa ukusiza ngezimpawu zokudangala, ukukhathazeka, noma ukucindezeleka kwesinye isikhathi okuhambisana nokubhekana nalesi sifo esididayo.

Amakhambi asekhaya

Izincomo zendlela yokuphila neyasekhaya yabantu abane-MD zitholakala kalula ku-intanethi, kodwa ukusebenza kwazo nokuphepha akunakuqinisekiswa. Noma yikuphi ukuncoma okusha okucabangayo kufanele kucwaningwe kahle ngaphambi kokusetshenziswa.

Ngaphezu kwalokho, kunamawebhusayithi amaningi athengisa okhilimu, ama-lotion, amaphilisi, ukugqokwa kwamanxeba, nokunye ukwelashwa okuvame ukubiza kakhulu kepha kube nenzuzo engabazekayo. Le mikhiqizo kufanele igwenywe ngaphandle kokuthi wazi ukuthi ziphephile futhi kufanele izindleko.

Ingabe amaMorgellon angadala izinkinga?

Kungokwemvelo ukubuka nokuthinta isikhumba sakho lapho sicasukile, singakhululekile, noma sibuhlungu. Abanye abantu baqala ukuchitha isikhathi esiningi bebheka futhi bekha esikhunjeni sabo okuthinta izinga labo lempilo futhi kuholele ekukhathazekeni, ukuhlala bodwa, ukudana, nokuzethemba okuphansi.

Ukuphinda kaninginingi noma ukukha izilonda zakho noqweqwe lwakho, isikhumba esikhasayo, noma imicu eqhumayo kungadala izilonda ezinkulu ezingena futhi ezingapholi.

Uma ukutheleleka kungena egazini lakho, ungahlakulela i-sepsis. Lesi yisifo esongela impilo esidinga ukwelashwa esibhedlela ngama-antibiotic aqinile.

Zama ukugwema ukuthinta isikhumba sakho, ikakhulukazi izilonda ezivulekile kanye noqweqwe. Faka okokugqoka okufanele kunoma yimaphi amanxeba avulekile ukuvikela ukutheleleka.

Ukubhekana nesifo seMorgellons

Ngoba kuningi okungaziwa nge-MD, kungaba nzima ukubhekana nalesi simo. Izimpawu zingabonakala zingajwayelekile kubantu abangazi noma abaziqondi, ngisho nakudokotela wakho.

Abantu abane-MD bangakhathazeka ngokuthi abanye bacabanga ukuthi "konke kusekhanda labo" noma ukuthi akekho okholelwa kubo. Lokhu kungabashiya besaba, bekhungathekile, bengenakuzisiza, bedidekile, futhi becindezelekile. Bangakugwema ukuzihlanganisa nabangane nomndeni ngenxa yezimpawu zabo.

Ukusebenzisa izinsizakusebenza ezinjengamaqembu okusekela kungakusiza ukubhekana nalezi zinkinga uma zenzeka. Amaqembu okusekela angakusiza uqonde okwenzekayo futhi akunikeze nethuba lokukhuluma ngakho nabanye abadlule kokuhlangenwe nakho okufanayo.

Amaqembu okusekela angakusiza ukuthi uthole ulwazi olunembile ngocwaningo lwamanje ngesizathu sesimo sakho nokuthi ungasilawula kanjani. Ngalolu lwazi, ungafundisa abanye abangase bangazi nge-MD, ngakho-ke bangakusekela futhi bakusize kakhulu.
