How To Get your Life Back From Morgellons and O<strong>the</strong>r <strong>Skin</strong> <strong>Parasites</strong><br />

my way to freedom, i.e. a day or two without any crawling, itching or<br />

biting, I'd select something that I thought was safe to eat only to find<br />

myself reacting with a new lesion (papule)--each cost me a week of<br />

recovery time and each step back contributed to fur<strong>the</strong>r development<br />

of <strong>the</strong> diet.<br />

Searching for Relief<br />

In <strong>the</strong> beginning, I turned to sulfur lotions on <strong>the</strong> skin as a treatment<br />

and went to work with jaundiced looking hair, and skin. Needless to<br />

say it was tremendously embarrassing to have <strong>the</strong> problem and not<br />

know how to treat it or get rid of it. "What’s wrong with you?" was a<br />

common question from which I had no reasonable answer but to shrug<br />

off <strong>the</strong> inquiry.<br />

Or you experience an itch on your wrist and forearm, you scratch and<br />

scratch and no relief. Day in and day out, <strong>the</strong> itch continues. You try<br />

everything you can think of and nothing helps <strong>the</strong> itch.<br />

Eventually you notice mini vampire looking marks with about 1/16"<br />

between <strong>the</strong> bites—and <strong>the</strong> biting is so intense that you practically<br />

scratch your skin raw and no relief for hour upon hour. Nothing takes<br />

away <strong>the</strong> biting sensation. It feels like a needle that keeps digging into<br />

<strong>the</strong> skin. Eating tuna in oil would bring this on within 10 minutes.<br />

I’m getting ahead of myself. No physician that I had ever seen has<br />

diagnosed <strong>the</strong>se symptoms as caused by parasites (except for <strong>the</strong> Dr.<br />

Harvey of Texas), but <strong>the</strong>n no o<strong>the</strong>r diagnosis was given ei<strong>the</strong>r.<br />

Through <strong>the</strong> process of elimination, i.e. sphere-like eggs, dust particle<br />

moving, and <strong>the</strong> presence of tiny flying bugs in <strong>the</strong> house closely<br />

matching <strong>the</strong> description of <strong>the</strong> red mite, I surmised it was caused by<br />

infestation of several types of mites. I've since learned that <strong>the</strong>se mites<br />

were only <strong>the</strong> host to o<strong>the</strong>r parasites that are resistant to standard<br />

medical treatments for mites.<br />

A book, Life That Lives on Man by an Englishman, recommends a<br />

25% benzyl benzoate emulsion or Eurax cream. I checked with several<br />

pharmacists and none knew of <strong>the</strong> emulsion or <strong>the</strong> Eurax cream. That<br />

was before I had access to <strong>the</strong> internet. Google Eurax cream if you'd<br />
