hi there....my symptoms began a few weeks ago. not so much on body but man are they on my scalp. i have a sore on lower back of scalp but intense itching all over. i feel the creepy crawly hairs go in ears and face which keeps me up at night. contemplating on shaving my head but i really don't want to. i don't think i can take much more of this....can anyone help with specific treatment with scalp and hair issues?

Hi Yukbugs...
Welcome to the forum... It is good you found it... Lots of great info and support here. There are lots of great people here and many great protocols that will help your symptoms. I really have had a lot of good luck with a dandruff shampoo by Jason. Amazon.com: Dandruff Relief Shampoo by Jason - 12...it has some great ingredients that are effective for Morgellons.

Also, I think that a great place to start is with Carla's excellent list of protocols. Living with Morgellons-Treatment Suggestions are always new treatments being posted... so check often.
Sorry this is happening but glad you're here!

So where exactly do you locate apple cider vinegar (white)? I have never seen any white vinegar except that made from grain or sometimes white wine vinegar used for salad dressings. Apple cider vinegar has a golden brown color.

Hey guys? and girls have you ever started off with red bumps that look like zits? they've been on my body for a month now? trying everything this website is to offer. Espically the cider

Red dot or pimple like bumps without whiteheads could be a sign of cat scratch disease known at bartonella. If you have been exposed to a kitten and were scratched or bitten I would have the doctor test you for this.

Bartonella can also be contracted by a tick or other vector insects.

This may or may not have anything to do with morgellons and I would advise going to your family doctor first before going down the road of lyme disease.
Contracting bartonella is much more likely from a kitten.

From my understanding and research of morgellons it is brought on by an insect leading to a whole mess of unwanted symptoms and co infections.
Check out the normal infectious disease first before moving into morgellons territory.
Good luck to you

I use Jason's, too, but I use the Tea Tree version. Also the body wash. It took awhile for it to begin helping but now it even seems to be controlling the film. The important thing is that you stick with one thing that helps and don't go bouncing around from one thing to another unless it really stops working. I've been using Jason's for about 6 months now and so far so good.

If you're in the US, Walgreen's in my area carries the shampoos, conditioners and face/body moisturizers. Albertson's carries the body wash. Cheaper than natural products stores.

Another poster also recommends Miracle II soap. I haven't tried it yet because I hate to rock the boat, but she says it's all she's used for several years for hair, body and house cleaning.

pine-sol,10%pine oil in your bath water will work better than anything to kill the white fibers that cause so much misery.It's also cheap and readily available.You must also use it on the carpet and wood floors.The use of it in your laundry will stop the spread from things in your enviroment.Bed linens are usually covered with the fibers and pine sol will make them usuable rather than discarding them.Full strength on the lesions.

Texize pine-sol is in the cleaning department of most stores and is what to look for.It will say 10% on the label.I have seen some old timers use actual pine tar on a large lesion and cure it .It would look ugly,though not as ugly as the lesion.The spruce pine tree is nature's pharmacy.Many ant colonies store it "resin" along side their nurserys.It is high in antifungal and antibiotic properties.It is imperative to wash all clothing with it added in.It destroys the white fibers that the little worm spins out.I have seen this occur with my bugs that I raise from the contents of a lesion.I have also observed the black fibers being woven from the dark area of a larvae.I urinated two blue fibers that were woven and around 18 inches long.That stopped the kidney pain that had been ongoing for about 2 years.If you have any questions about your condition,then please ask anything and I'll try to help.

Welcome Newbie. Try not to be afraid. We are all here to help you. Just ask anything.

I would suggest not using pine-sol, pine oil or pine disfectant until you have read the labels.

All these type of cleaning products contain chemicals that can poison you as they go through the skin. It is better to use naturals like borax, soda, vinegar, salt, and only pure, natural essential oils.

I was poisoned by chemicals in Oct, 1997 and still suffer from Multiple Chemical Allergies and Sensitives. I also have Morgs. Lymes and who knows what else. The surfectants in all those cleaners incuding dish soap can damage your brain, nerves, blood brain barrier, detox pathways . There is no cure for MCS, only avoid, avoid, avoid. It is a definite life changer more so than Morgs. I lived like a hermit for many years and now live almost totally alone. Just a trip to the store or doctor can make me very ill from chemicals in the store and peoples horrible perfumed and scented products they wear including hair goo, hairspray, (no beauty shop for me), the chemical odors in dryer sheets, laundry and the list goes on and on. I had to get another vehicle about 3-4 months ago and still can't ride in it becasue of the perfume cleaner someone has used in it. Can't have a new car either becasue of the chemicals and formaldhyde..

REad through old posts, Bubbas treatment steps and ask questions.
