Hello everyone, and again, thank you for your support and advice. Well, I went back to the dermatologist with baking soda, and purell in hand. I saw the P.A. instead of the doctor which was fine with me as the doctor I see irritates me. We went through the same old same old, and one of my "problems" is that I don't have any outward signs, no lesions, tracks, etc. I just have crawling under my skin. After talking to her and showing her my "trick", she said whatever is on my skin is purely a reaction, no larvae or anything. Then at the end of the visit, she said...you may want to see a psychologist. I was so crushed. I wanted to cry, but I just shook my head, put my clothes on, canceled my next appt., and left never to return. I see a new dermatologist next month who specializes in infectious diseases. Part of me wants to cancel the appt. because I don't feel like hearing the same thing.
I used GSE in my shampoo for the first time last night and again this morning. I have to say I've hardly had any movement in my scalp.
This has been the only bright spot in this ordeal.
What I don't understand is if I'm imagining crawling, why does it occur in cycles, meaning why does it slow down, why do I go through what I call a "mite" phase when I'm the most itchy and have the most crawling. Why does what I have in my scalp respond to my touch. If I feel it crawling in the front of my scalp, I can place my hand there, and feel it crawl somewhere else. As I move my hands, they move as well.
All I can do is pray that the new doc takes me seriously, and takes steps to find out what's wrong, I also pray for endurance. It's bad when I hope that whatever hatched in my pubic area hatches again, so I have proof. That was a scary experience, and had I known it would be so hard to prove that something is wrong with me, I would have put those suckers in a glass jar, punched a hole in the top, and taken them to the doc.
Well, here's to one of the biggest fights in my life, I'm just glad that I'm not alone.
Peace to all
