Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Hi - Im a new member and sufferer... of 8 months... It is affecting me, my fiance', my dogs, my lovebird and my WALLET; and thanks to you all and this website Ive gathered so much useful information to create some of my own protocals and routines....But have not kicked the Critter for good... keep having outbreaks and its so devastating when you think youre making progress. One area of success for Scalp, so far.... I use 2 shampoos and 1 conditioner. I shampoo first with Sulfodene (yes, its for dogs; but I've gotten alot of relief from this and so has my dogs). Ingredients are Coal Tar, Sulfur and Triclosan. You can buy Sulfodene at Walmart. Next, I shampoo with Cedar-Al: It's all natural, non-toxic and bio- degradable from Red Cedars. Cedar-Al has a web site you can order from. I then use a Mint Conditioner called, Aura spa aromatherapy Rosemary Mint Conditioner - I purchased this at Big Lots. I dont know why but something about this combination is keeping the critters out of my scalp and now they rarely bug my face. They're probably trying to stay away from anywhere above the neck. I also have to attribute some relief to the fact that we have been fogging the house every weekend for the past 3 weeks with Cedarcide and its really, really improved our environment situation (no more floaters or swarms)and brought relief to the dogs since its safe to use on them. However, I realize that Cedarcide is not the END ALL. There will probably have to be another kind of house Treatmnt. So I ordered Trish's ESP oils and we are gonna fog with that as well. Still considering heating the home to 170 degrees as an option too. I dont like the idea of all the exposure we've had to pestacides already!!! We even used Precor (has Bifethrin: a mitacide in it) to spray the interior of my car and the bedroom a little but too wimpy to do the whole house w/it!!!!! I will consider if it means ending this hell though. I ordered the ESP New Hope kit 2 - its available now... I also order the ph buffer from www.vaxa.com and ordered the Parasitin as well- This makes total sense to clean yourself from the inside out and draw the crap & critters out. Trish actually consulted with me on the phone, the day after Christmas- I was so impressed by this.. Christmas day was bad for me(had an outbreak on my arms, legs, back and neck) and I broke down and cried on the phone with her. This is really scary stuff! We got a mini-microscope from Radio Shack and when you use a lint roller (with the sticky tape) you can actually see the nymph's or whatever they are trapped on the paper! I'm gonna get more info from Trisha tomorrow and I'll be happy to share it with you all. I've been to 2 DR's - 4 failed Permethrin tx's, 4 failed Eurax Tx's and now I'm seeing a Dermatologist- did a biopsy and all she could tell me was I had bacteria in my skin??? Uh - no shit sherlock, if the mite are spitting and shitting on me internally! It's very discouraging that medical people are lazy and ignorant for the prices they charge! However - I'm taking the dam sticky papers into the Derm's office in January to show her what she missed. Glad I found you all and again so much gratitude for the collective wisdom. Bless yu all. reg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
