Medusa hair

[fracty]

Does anyone have any solutions to get the worms out of your hair?

i do not know if they are wrapped around the shaft, inside the shaft, or just travelling up and down, but somehow my hair moves and writhes like snakes.

They must sense the carbon dioxide and the second they are loose (not in some Tx I am trying, or not tied up) they twist around to my mouth and nose. Then I can feel more tickling starting in my throat. They must have some innate drive to get inside the host by sensing the c02.

I was about to run out and try neem oil, but then I read this article:
Does Neem Oil Harm Earthworms?
If it, in the long run, prospers earthworms so fantastically, i am concerned what it might do with other types of worms.

I have been doing Selsun packs, various oil pack - including coconut, pouring salt on my head, alcohol, alcohol and mint sprays, white vinegar, and right now I have a paste of milk with baking soda.

Please let me know if you have anything that works.

No matter how hard I plaster my hair down with Aquanet and rubber bands pieces keep pulling out and heading into my mouth and face.

One of my best friends found out she has "M" in January. She swears neem oil has helped helped her.

She is a vegan and has an organic vineyard. I believe she got "M" from working on her old house and maybe from the dirt. She never got to the point where her hair was biting her.

However, my hair used to move and bite me. I found other methods to help me (no more moving hair or biting). But I would definitely give the neem oil a try. Let us know how it works!

In the white light,

Hi Fracty,

Sounds like you're really busy trying so many things, just like I was, not too long ago (maybe 2 months ago) - it's exhausting.

I tried lots of things on my scalp, but I finally just cut my hair really short (less than an inch all the way around) and I got some relief that way.

I also push on the scalp like Robin and really have noticed improvement doing that. I use an ice cream scoop (which I've been laughed at for using) - I also use my bare hands. You can use anything that you feel you can push with - target the swellings behind the ears and along the jaw at first.

I have a nematode (or more than one) in my tongue and the tip of my tongue is numb.

I have ordered mebendazole (Vermox) online and will be taking that when it arrives. It will not kill the larva but may kill the adults.

I take lots of garlic, wormwood, black walnut, salt, vitamin C, alfalfa, ginger, turmeric, B12.

I use a hair dryer to heat up the areas that have nematodes. My right foot is bad with them (although it has no lesions, they are there - my foot is swollen and hard with them) - It's hard to move my ankle too. I know the exact day and hour they hatched out from my stomach lesion and headed down my leg.

All I know is to try to push on them on your scalp and crush them. You want to find that hard ridge or if you can't find that just push on any swellings. You have to push for a long time. It takes 4 or 5 minutes of pressing or pinching for them to start to collapse.

fracty,
check out the neem oil first, it you have it on hand... Beware of pharmaceutical medicine. It doesn't help in the long run.

Hi Fracty,

I wanted to comment on why I feel your hair moves.

Mine did this too, and may do it still, but right now it's so short it doesnt have enough length to wiggle much.

I think you and I are producing the dauer juvenile (juvenile nematodes) - these nematodes are predatory and are enclosed in a sheath. If you look at one of your hairs closely, you may be able to see that your hair has the "fiber" nematode wrapped around it. This is what makes your hair seem to move. The nematode (looks like a cotton fiber, very thin, about 1 inch long, often having bends in it) - this nematode does not need to eat and does not age. It's sole purpose in life is to find a host.

It's been a while since I read about the CO2 but I think you're right that it does sense CO2. I'll look it up.

You have to destroy the nematodes in your scalp that are putting out (producing) these fibers. Push on them and try to crush them. I'll give you more info on that if you like. These fibers are coming out of you. You are the nursery. It's true.

Thanks guys. I will try everything you both said.

And yes, Sar, I realized very early on they nesting and producing inside my head/scalp/etc. I know they are programmed to get inside the host.

Right now the baking soda/milk paste is dry and holding them in. I'll try adding the neem oil tomorrow. I was just concerned when I saw the article saying, at least in the case of earthworms, neem actually helps them thrive after an initial repulsion period.

Hey Fracty,
I want to let you know i really do know how frustrating it is when our symptoms progress so rapidly once they gain entry thru our scalp i believe they do find their way to our scalps no matter how they've entered our bodies. think of these parasites discovering our hair follicles after all this is the perfect enviroment and it could explain the tunneling.also people are noticing what appears to be deep webbing under their skin. that is all of the hair that has been pulled down when they entered our scalps.
One of the very beginning stages to this disease is excessive hair loss. i have unfortunately spread my disease to a roommate that moved in about a year ago.i never would have let anyone move in because i know how contagious this crap is.but it was my kids friend and she needed a place to stay.and they still don't know what to think about me. but anyway's i took the opportunity to learn by observing the initial symptoms in my children and now my roommate the hair is involved from the beginning.we need to kill this crap thru our scalps big time! I do know how crazy this sounds but i also do know this to be so true!
Just throw whatever you can think of that might kill it .safely of course ! i started to get alot better once i started removing it.and my hair is starting to fill in again.i always had really long hair but cut it because it was being pulled under.it didn't help because the damage was already done. but my hair hasn't grown in 2yrs now the most it has grown is maybe an inch here and there. you know that definitely is not normal. wouldn't it be nice to be normal again!

Anything you try you may need to leave on for up to 72hrs....

The treatment has to have a chance to sufficate them, enter them internally and kill them or scratch them to kill them... get a plastic showercap apply treatment and stay at home with it on if possible.

And becareful with pharm. type treatments these tend to feed them like a steroid! So you could be causing them to multiply and or get stronger w/o even knowing it!!!
Good luck!
