I've been to see 3 doctors, spoken to 2 others and all but my primary care physician looked at me like I'm crazy. What he said was "you can really get carried away with something like this"... Really? Ya' think? That was just a nice way of saying your crazy! I heard the girl in the office tell the last dr. She couldn't believe I had picures. Short story, I went mad, the incessant crawling and pinching on my skin was terrible. My mom had scabies and the cream the dr. Gave me wasn't working. It just kept getting worse. I would apply things like Vaseline, Vicks to smoke them out and I really saw these black pepper specs come out of my pores. I went in the hot bath and the pepper specs were there... They must be dead mites, right? I started out with no rash.... Crawlies and pinches. The rash only started later and I wouldn't even call it a rash.... More on that later. But..... I did buy a USB microscope and took hundreds of pictures of suspicious skin activity. I even thought, briefly, that it looked like there was something.... That didn't quite look like a hair, coming out of my pores in certain locations. Were they moving?? What was that.... Took a picture and moved onto the next suspicious spot.... Found lots of things that looked like black, blue fibers of some sort and even noticed that every time I looked at a spot that felt crawly.... There was a fiber there. Hmmmmm, maybe it was ticking me??? What is that??
It all started 5 weeks ago, yes, only 5 weeks ago and I thought if I went another day I wouldn't survive. I wasn't sleeping in the end.... Cleaning cleaning cleaning my body, the house, the bed. Everything. I bagged all my clothes, I used oils, borax, Epsom salt, and I was very close to using bleach on my body. I spent at least 500 dollars on all kinds of items to eradicate these bugs including premise sprays, body sprays, natural, poison.... Powders. Endless.... I was already damaging my skin and my hair and I could swear I had the pockets in my face. The bugs were now in my face and in my hair, my nose and even in my mouth. I SAW one come out of a pore on the side of my nose. I wept, every night. I became very depressed and the more people tried to tell me I didn't have bugs the more angry I would get. Stop telling me it's all in my head, this is not in my head!!! The next person that told me that would surely get a punch in the face!!! I couldn't even believe that people suffered like this for years.... I couldn't take 5 weeks and I was knock knock knocking on crazy's door! I thought... One more day and I won't just be mad I will be committed.... The last time I sobbed was in the shower at 4:00 am on Friday when I cried to my dad in heaven..... Please daddy, please help me. I can't take it anymore, what's wrong with me, please help me. I just want to be normal again. That was my third shower and second bath that night as well as hours of close skin inspection. I even thought, TWICE!! That a bug was on my skin and I tried to grab it but it quickly burrowed so I picked one out of my heel and did the same to the corner of my eyelid. When I think back it saddens me. The cream didn't work, no one would give me ivermectin, I was close to taking the paste and I thought, if Apple cider vinegar kills them topically, I'm going to take the ACV pills and kill them as they eat my skin. That will kill those bastards!!! Kill them while they feed on me.... I took 4 Apple cider vinegar tablets Friday morning. Within hours the crawlies diminished.... It's 5 days, taking the ACV pills every day and almost no crawlies and pinches completely gone. My sanity is back, I'm thinking rationally again and I hit the Internet to find out WHY??? The doctors obviously couldn't answer that question, so I'll find out on my own. That's when I stumbled on Morgellons and read, read, read. I found videos from a doctor in Arizona that says he understands and knows what the problem is. It's our bodies reacting to SOMETHING and what that something is could be different for everyone. The reaction, the crawlies and pinches on the skin. That's how I started... I ended up with red spots, itchy spots and "lesions" that I created from all the crap I was using. So ok.... My body is reacting, but to what. Eureka, it hit me. I have an allergy to formaldehyde... In instant glue, cosmetics, nail polish etc. last ingredient in permethrin..... Yep, formaldehyde... So, was this all my body reacting to that cream? When did this all start? The very next day after using the cream.... It just kept getting worse and worse and the cream didn't eradicate them.... Of course not because it was the cream all along!! Some people are not so lucky.... One person had to have all her molars removed because her body was reacting to the metal. Could it be, this is what we are all suffering from?? I ask you, does it make sense to try the Apple cider vinegar tablets and give it a shot?? Why not, what do we have to lose right? I'm not exactly sure why the ACV helps with a reaction of this sort but it helped me and if there is even a slim chance that this information might help others.... Then I'm sharing it as much as possible!!
PS I searched for a parasitologist in NJ and couldn't find one. I'm going to try NY for all of you and if I find something I will post it. Don't give up, don't ever give up. Try the Apple cider vinegar, it's worth a shot right?
