a rash started on my side a year ago, dr said shingles but I sprayed permethrin I suspected something different. My side cleared but they went to my stomach and the other side, went to dr again- he said scabies. I believed it. Used permethrin more than I should, got desperate and used pesticide that isn't for the body, benzyl benzoate and ivermectin, plus home remedies, baths with borax, peroxide, A&H...using coconut oil on bod . Then one eve while putting on oil, noticed lint type, and has been a challenge ever since. Why did morgellons suddenly appear? Was it all of the pesticides I was using? However, One day I asked my teenager if he would put Coconut on oil on after bath, he did, and lo and behold there were the fiber starting to come out. He has no other symptoms. However, when I was told scabies, I got script for permethrin for him and he used it. I've wondered also about the moldy home we lived in for 4 years, is that a factor? Back to scabies- these morg's hang out in areas (on me they do) that scabies are known: webs of fingers, chest, under breast, groin, inner arms, sides. I had 2 embedded ticks once as a teen and once in my 20's, did I get Lyme and pass it to my son in utero? Still, why sudden appearance of morgellons after I had been treating for scabies?
