Guest guest Posted October 24, 2000 Report Share Posted October 24, 2000 Sharon, Reading your story made me cry tears of worry for you, then tears of joy. What a beautiful letter. I am going to save it to re-read on those dark days. Thank you so much. Your story touched me in many ways, and I really needed to read it today. Peace, Ginnie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 15, 2001 Report Share Posted December 15, 2001 Tammy, Me too. I've finally gotten where I can pray again. Up until the last 3 or 4 months, I have been " arguing " with God regularly. I've been so angry that and I are having to go through this and I lost the desire and ability to pray. (and that's pretty sad considering I am our small church's pianist). That was during the time that I had not told anyone about my son's disorder and was unable to talk about it at all without bursting into tears. Now that I can talk about it and have this group for support, I have told people in the family, at church etc. and I feel better. Now praying is again a comfort and I'm glad because on those " bad " days I sure do need it!

Guest guest Posted April 19, 2004 Report Share Posted April 19, 2004 There you are Sharon - you are already getting stronger - I hear it each day! You are there supporting others and are barely out of the hospital yourself! You are gonna make it girl - like you always do! much love, guin My dearest little Stacie, Although things have not always been great for us I have never stopped caring or worrying about you. I am a very blunt person. I have survived many schools of hard knocks. I have survived many years of tears and therapy. My approach to life and its strife is to dig in deep and hold on. When they tell you no fight back if you want it. Never try to feel sorry for yourself as there is always someone right around the corner who is handling more or worse, than we are. I guess the biggest thing is we have to be tough and we have to get back up to fight for another day. You may not remember this but you sent me a copy of this poem when I first game to t his board and was so broken and lost. It was you and your age, and Turk, and Bill and some that has passed on, It was Bob and Sue and Gosh darn it my brain is dead and I can't remember all your names, but what I do remember is because you al cared and because you all reached out, I am still here and I am still fighting. So bless you Stacie I know that yo have walked more than your share of dark miles, but look at this way your still here too.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 Hi, Sharon! I am really happy that you got all this right and that you didn´t have to exterminate any mites. I guess most of us really have mites and it is so hard to get rid of them. But even if you never had mites, it must have been just as bad as having them, because you had the crawlies etc that just drives you crazy. Happy to hear your results! Cecilia From: birdluvr4evr <no_reply >bird mites Sent: Monday, May 21, 2012 4:29 AMSubject: Post #3 - The end of my horror This is the follow-up e-mail I sent to my pastors on May 14th:I have read over and over the diagnosis of 'Delusional Parasitosis" & Formication and am trying to figure out how this could be. It is amazing and almost humorous because my symptoms were so classic right down to the last detail. I am a healthy person, in that I have no diseases and am on no maintenance meds. I have never used or even tried drugs of any kind and in recent years I have refrained from using pharmeuticals however, I have a feeling I brought this on with "drugs". A combination of things that I thought were healthy.Over the last couple of years I have been to two acupuncturists, at different times, mostly for pain in my feet, diagnosed as Arthritis & a knee injury I had. My office chair tipped over and my leg twisted. My primary care physician referred me to an Orthopedic and he wanted to do knee replacement the moment he walked in the room and looked at me. I SO did not/do not need knee replacement!! That's why I sought Acupuncture. Each acupuncturist gave me several things to take. All Chinese meds - some for the same thing and quite a few of them were still sitting on my counter. Being the "not-wasteful" person that I am, I began to take them together with my daily vitamins until they were all gone. Some were "6" 3x a day, others were "10" 4x a day, etc, etc. One Chinese med was to stop bleeding because I had a reaction of nose bleeds to a Calcium I had been taking on orders of my Gynecologist, others were for different kinds of pain, others were for varicose veins. I had forgotten about this because shortly after the "mites" made an appearance I quit taking everything. On only 2 hours sleep a night I stopped doing everything I routinely did. I have a 7 day vitamin case in which I dole out my vitamins and when I opened it to get my vitamin regimen going again I saw them in it. OHMYGOSH!! I'll just bet that's what set this off. I remember being a little concerned when I was taking all those things but I thought they were all "natural" things so they had to be safe. I would never, ever do that with pharmaceuticals but I didn't think of them as medicine. I have been "crawley" free for several days. I don't know if it is from what the exterminator said "I've been doing this for over 30 years and I know if you can't see them they aren't there" or the fact that I couldn't see anything moving while using the black light or taking St 's Wort or that the Chinese meds combinations have worn out of my system or all of these things. My life is returning to normal and I'm sleeping in my wonderful bed again, waking up with excitement to go out and work in my yard.I will see my new primary care physician for the first time next week and will discuss all this with him and decide what, if any further treatment is needed. Thanks for everything,Sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
