To I like trees

[Guest guest]

Hi C!

We are quite ok here. No more mites, but some skinblisters on my 9 year old on and off.

I also have stuffed sinuses at night and need to sleep 9-10 hours a night to be able to work, so some kind of fatigue.

Also about once a week night sweats. This is nothing though compared to the mite-mare.

My head still spins around mites and bites and even though I allmost do normal laundry (except only using towels once after shower) and cleaning only once a week, I guess my mind is still affected. Also losing a house and everything you own, that has put me in a bad economical situation is hard, but if we only have health in the family it was well worth it.

Take care and good luck with the dog!

Cecilia

also kill them worries me since I'm feeling worse and feeling that he doesn't fully comprehend my situation and therefore I'm not being treated properly and may just be making my situation worse. >> >> >> > >> > >> > Hello all, I know, after reading many of the posts here, that many of >> > you are suffering terribly from multiple diseases, perhaps caused by >> > bird mites, perhaps not.
