Mysterious bug under my skin, crawling on my scalp

This is my first post, I've been reading this forum for about a month now, reading about evetything from how to cure scabies to mites.

I'm 27 years old, live in Dallas Texas and here is my story...

First, we've always had a fly problem at every house we go to. You know, the little fruit fly looking things. However, we're not big fruit eaters and don't have any out. They seem to love the trash and the sink (different fly?).

Up to 6 months ago I felt like a bug was crawling on me when I sat on my couch and bed (different apartment), our first assumption was bed bugs and we treated the house (using bombs) for these, the crawling feeling slowed but never fully stopped.

We recently moved (2 months ago) and I felt the same thing on the couch and bed, even worse actually. So much so that we had to throw the couch out. The couch had a mattress in it, it ended up staying out back for a little while until one day I looked out there and it had little black bugs crawling all over it. During this time it seemed I ws being attacked at night by whatever this is, constant crawling all over my head. I usually stay up late to work (upwards of 5AM sometimes) and the entire time this crawling is going on. When I get in the bed it's even worse.

Now here we are at present day. Three days ago I started feeling like whatever this was is now in my skin (I'm certain of it), It's under the skin on my face, my scalp, my back, my toes, and my feet. I can feel it crawling in and out of my anus at times also.

Went to the dermatoligist today and of couse he says it's my imagination, some people get it. He's subscribed me some DEXEPIN for depression. :(  Funny thing is I'm not depressed, my life was quite good until this bug showed up.

I can feel them crawling under my skin, they hang out in my ear (not sure if under the skin or just in the canal) all day, it's gross. No one in the house (my wife and 3 kids) can feel them. My wife has bites all up and down her legs and even a protruded ring looking this on her forearm.

As you might have imagined I'm loosing my mind and life, nothing is the same. And now that the doctor says it's my imagination I cant even get my mom or wide (even though she has a lot of bites) to believe what I'm feeling is real. This makes everything 99.9% harder.

At first I thought it was bird mites (lots of trees around our apartment), then I thought scabies (becuase I can see tracks under my skin), and now I'm thinking it's some kind of fly. There are flys everwhere in this apartment. The disposal was broken when we moved in and it had  flies coming out, they are still around even today (and it's broken again). The bathroom has the flies, in fact, there are several dead in the tub.

I spray the tub down with bleach/water after getting out and noticed when I spray the faucet part some of it turns black (black mold?).

Could this be a bot fly? What do I need to do to get rid of it. Now that the dermatologist was no hope (second doc I've seen, first gave me Pemethrin which did not work) I was thinking of ordering some Stromectol / Ivermectin and Green Kleen Green online.

Recently I had jock itch for the first time in my life, had been taking Gris Peg (Griseofulvin) when this all started to intensify. Please if anyone has been through anything like this offer your sound advice.

Hello!

I'm the guy that started this thread almost a year ago now. I'm again coming back to update on what is working for me.

1. I'm doing Mel's prototocal at howicuredmorgellons.com. It's really a simple protocol. Vitamins, one prescription drug, and MMS, MMS being the most controversial of them all. I can say for a fact that I'm doing better on my second week. They ARE still there, but much less. I usually have to cut my hair back short once a week, this is the longest my hair has been in a long time and the crawling on the scalp is no more than with short hair.

2. Another key part of my day is what I bath with. TRUST ME, this WILL help you, I promise. Mix any anti-bacterial dish washing soap and Borax (20 Mule Team) and bath with this ONLY, use no other soaps. I got this information from http://morgellonscure.com and the **** works. MAKE SURE THE SOAP SAYS ANTI-BACTERIAL ON IT!

3. Then there is "MorgoneGel", now this stuff is serious business. I bought a BIG jug from the guy who makes it, havent used it yet completely. Your supposed to cover your entire body with it to make them come out, I've only covered my head on night. Something crawled from my scalp to my arm pit and came out there, 24 hours later I had a hugh sis under my pit. Hurt like hell for a week so I went to the doc. They said it is (KEYWORD) bactieria!!! They gave me the exact pills I needed for Mel's (howicuredmorgellons.com) protocol. Lucky Me. It's gone now BTW.

4. Someone mentioned an electrical component to this, you got it! The guy from morgellonscure.com has a magnet, he says he is 90% cured after wearing it, I'm about to order it, probably right now. I've been thinking this would be successful for a long time and I have faith in it so I'm ordering, I will report back and let everyone know.

I know eventually one day I will be cured. I had a dream long ago before this started that one day I would come in contact with a big spider (I hate spiders), I think it's some kind of spider **** causing all this, probably in my stomach, who knows.

Anyway, if you wan't to live normal, do everything I said in 1 & 2 for starters, I'll report back about the magnet.

God Bless!

I am still have a alot of them come out of mine ears 24 hours a day and they getting smaller. I am still hoping that Vicks vapor rubs is helping and for the room is to use the Air wicks. They will crawl down the legs to jump off. Just trying to break the cycle so they can't lay eggs.

Morgellons is the umbrella for everything but I have a mite not a man made thing that is cotton.


I have them in the ears so when I sleep it the C02 that force them out. If I could get ears stents this would drive them out of the middle ears. They would have to breath the body gas all day long. When take a shower  they will start jumping in the ears. When driving the brain frog start and when I really change where I am at.   I have fig out that I need long term smell around me. I try everything like everyone even a TENS but to fine out the only way is to force them off the body is smells. Have live plants or air wicks plug in when I sleep around me. I Qtip Vicks in the ears cannel and under the noise. I am get less active in the the ears drums and really come out.


The ones in eyes can drop out of the eyes lids and noise so no need to worry about them there.

The best medication  for me is Hot coca or hot drink. It relax me. One can a beer is ok but the whole thing any pill will not make the problem go around. So it go back to the smell like the pioneers did.

When you by your friend and she is normal. Take a strong smell like Vicks or Vaseline and place it on the open side of the ears. Ask her is the smell make her more hyper. This will tell you that they are in the ears drums. Maybe this is why no cell phone.  If they got in to the pours take many showers. I try all the soap but I only use Head and shoulder.One soap for everything. It is a guy thing. I would try body localotion but the smell don't last.   I would try to get the clothes to smells. On birdmites.org some used softener sheets in packets.

I got this four years now but what save me the family has felt me too.




The whole thing is to find if they are in the middle ears. If they can't past the ears drums it will be hard to get rid of.



It is like someone has took a Toyota gasrice rocket  pedal  in the life and it is stuck wide open. The days are slowing up and soon I hope will get mine life back soon.

My best friend has been suffering from this for the past 2 years and has been refused treatment, sent away becuse she was contagious, told she was on drugs and crazy. After researching on the internet and studying this with my friend and daughter we have come to the conclusion that.

Morgellons is the umbrella under which all under-the-skin bugs fall.
It is rapidly speading and there is no known cure

Many people that test positive for it also test positive for one or more other parasitic diseases. (Lyme disease, etc...)

Interestingly enough it seems everyone has the same thing in common. It gets worse at night. So what is changing at night that is different during the day... slower heart rate..rate of breathing slows, therefore less oxygen, do you turn a ceiling fan on, tv off, lights off, maybe run the dryer or dishwasher, do you play the radio or talk on a cell phone?

What do you eat throughout the day?

Please keep a journal. Everything from weather, temp, to food intake. How you felt that day. There are triggers figure out what your are. Find the pattern.

You are the doctor, the research analyst and the ones that are going to lay the groundwork for a possible cure. Your every day lives are extremely important to the many people that are going to contract this disease.

On youtube and several other sights there are videos / reports of taking a vinegar or pure grape juice bath. On the videos there are tons of the little worms and even a spider looking parasite in the bathtub that come out from the skin when these liquids are applied. For those of you talking about fruit flies have you ever seen how they are attracted to a cup of vinegar?  interesting. Peolple taking these baths claim to feel like a load has been taken off or as if they had lost a lot of weight. Worth a try I'd say.

My friend can no longer run the dishwasher, or regular washer or dryer, she will text but will not put the phone to her head (cellphone only) and cannot play the car radio while driving...apparently these activities cause the bugs to go crazy and intense fatuge and sometime flu like simptoms set in.

We see an obvious corillation to electricity. We have plans to test out a tens unit on limbs only to see what kind of activity occurs. If anyone else out there has a tens unit and would like to try this also please report back your findings. Do not attempt to try it on torso or head as you do not know if it will kill them or make them go haywire, and please be reasonable and don't just zap the heck out of yourself.

Will post our findings.

Someone please make a website or let us know where we can post for others to find.

i only have itching and crawlies in my hair. and maybe 10 or 15 bites.

people here do not have the fibres and leasions and the rest of it.

this is not morgellons.

physically this presents as a case of scabies, or nothing at all......

im thinking, maybe i have scabies in my scalp.. but that would not explain
why everyone around me itches.. unless they are just hatching out like spores in a mushroom.

When I started with mine sh?? I read that people that work in the texttile field in NY city was coming down with something. Hilary Cliton wrote a letter to the CDC to take a look. CDC put a web up this year after 3 year about this.
