Guest guest Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 Hi LD, Thanks for the inquiry. I'm doing okay, but there are still bugs inside my skin. The situation is under control, but I'm still looking for answers. I haven't been keeping up with the posts lately because I have a lot of catching up to do with work, my finances, etc. I started drafting a summary of what worked and didn't work for me, however my journey isn't over yet, so a summary would be premature. This morning it occurred to me that I am now so sensitized to mites that I'm probably even feeling dust mites. I can't pick up and read a newspaper without feeling bugs, and this can be anywhere: home, the office, the aiport. The problem seems to be me! The upside is that I don't have the big crawlies anymore, and I'm not feeling like I'm being driven insane anymore. How are you doing? Is your environment under control? Best, myrtle > > Hi Myrtle, > > Haven't seen any posts from you lately???

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 Hi Myrtle, Happy to hear from you again. I think I am kind of at the same spot you are. I have the environments pretty much under control from what I can assess but I know I still have these things in my system. I am trying Seabuckthorn capsules (Rita's recommendation) and I hope those are helping. I was on a parasite cleanse (Paragone) for about a month and that helped initially but I went off that to give my body a rest as prescribed. I have been taking the Oxy capsules, too and I think those are helping, although they not the " silver bullet " . Your summary idea sounds like a good one. I also jot down what I am using on my skin and in the environment to get a better idea of what products work better than another. It is quite a process as you know for some products work faster than others. Boy, if I had " nickel " for every combination of products that I have tried, I would be rich!!!.....as many of us would be on this site. Ha! Best of luck on your summary and keep the faith and I will, too! Lady Dee > > > > Hi Myrtle, > > > > Haven't seen any posts from you lately???

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 Hi again LD, This is strange, but I seem to have finally stumbled on something that got the damn bugs out of my skin. It is Nivea " Good-bye Cellulite " gel-cream that I bought at Costco a few weeks ago. I got it because 1) it's relatively cheap, and 2) it contains L-Carnitine, which is something I was taking internally to try to get rid of the bugs. I figured that cellulite cream is formulated to penetrate the skin and get into the fatty tissue, so I gave it a try for a couple few weeks. I slathered it all over my skin after taking a hot shower (to open my pores). It made my skin sticky and tingly, and I noticed an improvement in the itching after a day or two. After 5-6 days, I took a day off because I got tired of having clogged pores from this sticky cream, and then resumed using it. After another several days of using it, took another day off, then started using it again. Last week I noticed I was having an allergic reaction to it, in those areas where rubber was touching my skin (elastic waistband on clothing, elastic in a built-in bra, rubber slippers), and I was starting to break out in hives, so I stopped using it on Friday. On Friday, I noticed that my skin felt " carbonated " and I had stinging sensations, and I assumed it was from bugs, but it was a different sensation from the usual crawling or creeping. Today I finally realized that the bugs are gone from my skin, except for my scalp where I didn't slather the cream, yet. The hives are starting to clear up too. You might want to give it a try. You can get two giant tubes at Costco for $14. myrtle > > > > > > Hi Myrtle, > > > > > > Haven't seen any posts from you lately???
