Itchy Skin Parasites are relatively new to our culture. In fact most doctors deny their existence and swear that sufferers of these itchy skin parasites have vivid imagination and instead have a obsession with parasites. |

Morgellons and Other Itchy Skin
Parasites That Doctors Don't Know About.
I was first exposed to itchy skin parasites
and Morgellons in 1994. As I was pulling vines from pine trees in my
front yard a cloud of dust floated down on me. I paid little attention
to it and a little later on took a hot shower. Two or three days later
while visiting my mother, my significant other and I noticed intense
itching. Only after taking a near scalding bath did we find relief.
The relief was only temporary as within
hours the itch returned and within a day or so it the itchy skin was
accompanied by intense biting sensations. Hell had just begun as we
rushed to the doctor who prescribed Elemite and after we applied it, we
had relief and thought we were cured. But within about four days the
hell of itching and biting returned.
We soon came to know that the itchy skin
parasites infected our clothing, bedding, and home. It was a scary
realization that they were everywhere and we didn not know where
everywhere ended. I learned from the internet that diatomaceous earth
would kill everything. We noticed tiny flying insects, that we though
were mites, flying about the house and assumed that they had something
to do with our plight and hoped relief would be provided by using
diatomaceous earth.
Soon laundering all our bedding and
clothing that we wore became our daily routine along with near scalding
baths two to three times a day. Every over the counter product we tried
brought little relief. This resulted in more trips to the doctor. Even
with bite marks, open sores, and skin rashes the doctor was perplexed.
Eventually my fiancée moved out and got rid
of the itchy skin parasites with a product called liquid needles and an
ice bath. The product never helped me and the ice bath was too much to
ask of my body so I never did it. Instead I found relief with massive
doses of garlic on a daily basis.
My life was being controlled by itchy skin
parasites which I assumed was Morgellons. Suicide was a thought that I
entertained whenever I thought of never ever getting rid of them as the
relief from the garlic eventually wore off.
With the coining of the word Morgellons in
2002 nearly everyone with intense itchy skin looking for solutions on
the internet assumed that we all they had Morgellons. For those of us
who were diagnosed as being delusional, it was something on which to
hang our hats.
What saved my life was the advice of a
friend who suggested I look into a dietary connection. Without garlic I
eventually discovered through the process of elimination that certain
foods activated the itchy skin parasites and other foods put them in
remission. Since it was King in saving my sanity from Morgellons or
itchy skin parasites I called it the King Diet. And over the years, it
has brought sanity to hundreds of other sufferers.
Around 2004 I learned of a fellow who
claimed that Morgellons was a hoax and that we were all suffering from
Strongyloides stercoralis which is a nematode with which he was
diagnosed. And guess what? My blood tests came back positive for
Strongyloides stercoralis. His claim made sense since I never had
fluorescent fibers which are typical to Morgellons.
Through another sufferer of itchy skin
parasites I learned of collembola also known as spring tails. They are
invisible and seem to jump onto your ankles and I certainly had a lot of
that going on.
Rather than claim that Morgellons is a
hoax, it became obvious that there are three different itchy skin
parasites that have similar biting and sever itchy skin symptoms and the
good news was that the King Diet was working for all three of them. With
the opportunity to be in touch with hundreds of other sufferers I
learned much about all three types of parasites. I also consulted a
couple of the recognized physicians who treated Morgellons sufferers for
Lyme disease which I also had along with a protozoan infection and
eventually published everything in an e-book which goes into
disinfection and bathing protocols, diet and both medical and
alternative approaches. |
