Controlling your enviornment

[Guest guest]

Went to a garage sale in Oct. of 98 and tried on and bought 4 flannel

shirts. Took them home and washed them. A week later I developed itchy

spots on my arms that had little white blisters on them. Diagnosis of a

Dermatologist was the Scabies. Seems they were in the shirts I tried

on. I'm a scratcher and a picker so this was no picnic for me. Six

months and 3 prescriptions of Steriod cream later I'm still battling the

little critters. I don' t have a problem healing but, I don't know when

infection could set in. I clean my arms with Witch Hazle, and use

Benadryl gel, Aveeno lotion, and MSM lotion to help sooth and heal the

itchy spots.

I said all that to say this: we take care of our diets to regulate our

bgl, we should also take care of situations that might introduce into

our bodies little creatures that could do us harm.

Really enjoy this site, you all seem like great folks, and I am glad I

can be part of it. q:~)))
