Symptoms Vanished

After several doctor's trip where I was thinking I was going nuts. One doctors here in New York with a clinic in Noho, advised me to take a prescription drug called Doxepin. At first I was biased about it but reserching, I found that it is not only used as a tricyclic antidepressants by increasing certain substances in the brain that are needed for mental balance, but also no one knows how, it acts on our skin, and thus cures rashes and other dermo symptoms. It worked for me.
Later on, consulting another physician, it was noted that the levels of vitamin D in my body were very low, and I was prescribed 50.000 UI of vitamin D.
Also a inflammation was occurring, and I am taking Plaquenil.
So far the Doxepin makes me really sleepy but the symptoms vanished as well as any traces of it. Black specks and fibers are gone.
I stayed off the medicine for 2 weeks and the symptoms did not come back, though I went back on it for fear they would.

Is good to note that I am also in a pre-menopausal phase and many woman over 46, can have as a symptom, skin crawling sensation.
I am at this point not sure if this was morgellons or not.
I am just very happy that I do not feel any of these symptoms.

There are much speculation about it, some of these speculations seems out of this world. I do not agree or disagree with any of them. I heard them, tried many things and finally what I described above is what worked for me.

Here is my little story , my Morgellons adventure.

I hope I could be of help to anyone having these awful symptoms, suffering similar conditions conditions.
I wish you feel better.

Best

Doctors, doctors...

After going to several doctors and dropping several doctors, who did not really look at you but give you 5 min of their time, and at the mention of crawling on skin, or fibers, look at you funny, and start to say, in many ways that I was with DOP- Delusion of Parasitosis, I finally confronted one of them saying, doctor, you did not even examine my skin, you did not explain why suddenly I started to get all this "aging" spots, or "freckles". and these red dots that never heal, hurt and itch.
You did not explain to me why I shock in everything. I need someone to look into my skin deeply.
He sent me to a dermatologist that luckily was a great professional. She took skin biopsies, who at first came back inconclusive. at second, she said, you do have something there but we do not know and I cannot treat you for what I do not know. She won me over right when she said this.
She told me to go through the normal prescription and I did.
Did not work completely but she also did a complete blood work, and told me to return to a doctor or look for one who really would investigate. - You look for one that really tries, she said.
Then I asked her for a referral, and she gave me one.
Even if the new internal medicine doctor, she referred me to, did not believe in Morgellons, I was lucky that he believes in Lyme and tested me for it.
Positive.
He recommended Doxepin. At first I felt a bit betrayed, as doxepin is a anti- depressive, I though did my research and spoke with him about it. Doxepin is also effective for people with rashes and allergies, not very known why has this effect but it does.
Since I was unable ti sleep well for so long, I took it and the effects were immediate.
No more crawling. The specks in the bed vanished, the specks when i took a shower, almost vanished.
Only from time to time, i feel something in my ears but it is bearable, my life is almost normal. I say almost because not only I feel once in a while things on my ear, but I also feel a bit lethargic and sleepy. Not at all that bad though.
I am so thankful for it. I sure have no idea what my state of mind would be if I did not take it for the last 4 months.
Next, I have an appointment with a reumathologist, and as it was referred by the primary, maybe one that have answers for Lyme Disease.
Hopefully , I will get a proper treatment for it.
Whatever IT is...

later....

better and then... watch your food..

I do not agree with what some people say that Morgellons is a White Caucasian desease as well as I do not agree that is targeted to jewish-palestine people. I think the MAIN thing all and all is that it develops in people with compromised immune system and all that is is that.
Our immune system is all that makes us susceptible.

Now back to our dirty laundry.
Symptoms were much better after two weeks of non GMO, only organic fruits and veggies.
I did have an episode where i got a blouse out of the laundry basket and as I wore it, ouch! immediate Pinpricks! I took it off, showered, changed to another and was fine.

Now, about diet. Had a great week after 1 week eating only organic fruits and veggies, cutting all cheese, flour and sugar, the symptoms got MUCH BETTER, only some nose crawlies but not much. Bath was good too, not much stuff there. Upon applying the fungicide and Enduro soap, no debris.
There was only one night that I had plenty imsonia as I felt something in my ear. Could not sleep and and was late in the morning. I do worry a lot about my job.

Today... I ate two slices of a sweet apple pie and voila! Crawlies... ARGH! Up my nose, my arms, everywhere! Woken up in the middle of the night with it, felt then that something descended my nose passages and stayed in between my mouth and my throat. Nightmare...
Well let's go back on track!

By the way, i do zap from time to time and i do believe it makes better. I don't think Ms. Clark was a charlatan, I think she ws just not understood. Plus, she said acid reflux was a bacteria, even before it was "discovered"that it really was.

GMO food x Organic - Plus band-aid and bandages allergy (!?) now....

For 3 days I ate nothing more than fruits and Vegetables, ALL ORGANIC.
I avoided all sugar, all wheat and symptoms went down a bit

I made a soup with organic Squash and delicious Jerusalem Artichokes, also called Sunchokes. I have been seasoning with lots of garlic, onions and cayenne pepper, since they say these are good to stop the biting. actually I had never tried the odd looking Sunchoke and it is quite good, a nutty taste and yet refreshing. You can add it to soups and also eat it raw in a salad.

I also made juices with carrots, beets, coconut water and orange juice and another variety with pineapple, carrots and beet leaves.

I was surprised it went down three notches and thus I see specks or "fabric pills"and a VERY strange occurrence I will mention later, the stinging ceased, and I just feel some prickling in my nose and itching in my eyes.

After 3 days I wanted to test if the food had anything to do with it and as I craved meat and flour I ate a nice lamb pita. Well the prickling sensation on my nose and throat intensified. So somewhat eating lamb and bread is no good. Specially from a restaurant where GMO for sure will be present.

90% of the corn, 85% of soy and 80% of canola oil in the US is genetically modified. Restaurants even if labels organic, must not use these oils, and I am sure the lamb was not organic and was cooked with one of these oils. Eating soy is a no no... Almost ALL SOY is GMO, what healthy habit is in eating it then?! People have been fooled...

What is GM food? GM stands for genetically modified or transgenic. To modify the plants they fuse bacteria and viruses into their gene. Thus we eat it and what we are really eating is pesticide for these bacterias and viruses are engineered against pests, but no one knows if they stay in body's' forever or how long. And if you eat organic but cooked in GMO oil, you still eating GMO.

So, tomorrow I am going back to the vegetable/juice diet because I really need to get it together to get better.

I was reading a study that three patented genetically modified Monsanto crop seeds did not pass toxic levels in study. It caused mice to have failure in three of the body's detoxifying organs, kidneys, liver and heart.

As have no idea what this is, could be, and I think by what I just told you that GMO is involved in it. allergic reaction maybe? growth of these DNA modified entities in my body?

I was also reading some reports they did in 2006. I just do not understand why is taking the CDC so LONG to come with answers, and then I hear ll kinds of conspiracy theories while I just wanted concrete responses. maybe the CDC is delaying it and while now it is investigating, doctors who were investigating had to stop

In 2006 this video was made, and the reporter cites 3.000 cases, well up that up to 60.000 or 40.000 families.

Back to Non GMO food tomorrow.

There were two the same strange occurrences:
One happened with band -aids . I put it on a pimple like sore in my hand and all around it there was this reddishness, a deep rash. REALLY red as if I was allergic to it, well I have never been but maybe now, it was so bad and unexplainable, really awful looking. The other band aid I had placed on my biopsy little site, and the rash from the band aid was so deep it made holes in my arm, plus the band ids after a while looked very frilly as if eaten out.

Worse was what happened with my right breast. The wiring was not comfortable and I patched it from inside out, with a simple bandage like tape, the square type. I wore it before like this, washed and left it in there for it seemed comfortable. I have not worn this bras for quite sometime, but yesterday decided to wear it while I had all others on the wash. At night when I took it the bras out my skin was stuck on it, I pulled the body from the bra and a large patch the same size and contour of the bandage came out, my whole epiderm glued to it even though it touched the outside of it. and apparently there was no glue touching the skin, only the surface of the bandage but it ate my skin anyway. What is this?

Then I researched and found it listed in rense's site. Rense's believes in chemtrails.
Rashes - unusual, appear/disappear rapidly for no apparent reason, also appear where adhesive portion of Band-Aid is applied" - Yes, definitely, but the bandage glue part wasn't in my skin, yet took it off!!
