Ya hala,

I'm the one who suggested adding onchocerciasis. I did have some suggestions and questions about the site.

It would help if you enabled the 'email' option on your profile here in Yahoo, as I mainly use this. Just signed up on the piczo to briefly check out the site.

Alternatively, you can send me an email.

Addition: Hello again, another comment briefly.

"Elephantiasis is a disease caused by a parasite called lymphatic filariasis".

Actually, elephantiasis is just the name given to the syndrome of oedema (swelling) of a limb due to obstruction of the respective regional lymph drainage. If you see the lower limbs of some of the patients, they look like the foot of an elephant, hence the name.

When people say 'elephantiasis' they are usually referring to the disease called 'lymphatic filariasis (LF)', caused mainly by two species of parasitic worms (filaria): Wuchereria bancrofti and Brugia malayii. The former mainly causes LF in Africa, the latter in Asia.

Filaria are parasitic worms, and those two mentioned above are transmitted by mosquitoes. However, elephantiasis can, as you've posted, be caused by non-infectious processes. Other infectious parasitic diseases can also cause the obstruction which leads to the 'elephantiasis', including Onchocerca volvulus which I'd mentioned before.
