bugs in your hair and in clothing

I have something that is biting me on my body. It is in my hair and on my body and in my clothing. What ever it is it bites or stings and feels like it buries in my skin. I can feel it walking on my skin. it falls from my hair and I can feel it on my clothing when it falls. When i go to pick it off it goes into the clothing. It looks white and sometimes black. It looks alot like lint. When I feel it biting or a sting it looks like a little black dot. and when I see it in my hair it looks white or shinny. I have used lice shampoo creams. I have been to a skin doc, my primary doc and a vet skin doc for my dog because I thought it might be mites. but I have not been able to get this problem away. Please if anyone knows what this is or a solution that might help please tell let me know. I have been dealing with this for about 8 months now. like I said its in my hair, on every part of my body that has hair even my eye lashes everywhere. please help. thank you

Best wishes to you, girl,

Wow it is so sad that you all just can't believe someone when they say something is happening to them.

Actually if you would had researched more you have realized that it is INDEED a disease and it's not psychosis. A medical doctor has identified it as such and now has a potential cure..

Take the time to read this. It's such a shame that so many people have closed minds to all this..

hi choux, yes I didnt have to go back to re-read, i still think from the description it is bedbugs. Why does everything have to be a psychotic disease nowadays?

Nothing was mentioned about a psychotic ideas until Cinnabar introduced it.

We are not here, remember, to diagnose. He has to realize that.

A very good saying is "be open minded...but not so open minded that your brain falls out." Your brain has fallen out. Believing everything you read on the internet is a very dangerous thing. There is TONS of peer-reviewed literature on the topic of morgellon's and all of it points to a psychological issue.

It's hilarious to think that this is some parasite that can't be identified or even produced for research.

I have not provided a formal diagnosis(as it's not in my scope). I have disagreed with the nonsense offered up in this thread based on actual peer-reviewed evidence and my skill set, which includes parasitology.

Such a shame. Did you even read my link to the site of the Doctor that has identified what it is and what the cures are???

I think it would be such a different story if you contracted the disease yourself.. you would then be left in the dark with no one to believe YOU.. such a lonely feeling huh?

If this is psychosis.. then how do you explain the physical evidence supporting this disease.. once again you haven't taken the time to READ BOTH CASES.. you just read the side that says these people are crazy.. To make a valid arguement one should investigate both sides to the matter. Which I have, and I still conclude that it's a valid disease.

Like i said SHAME!!

Gullible isn't in the dictionary.

I'll also add that being an MD doesn't make you an expert on a topic. Susan Kolb is a plastic surgeon. She is not in the fields of pathology, microbiology, or anything related. I'd hardly take her word over the TONS of available research contradicting what she says.

And your expert google skills certainly make your conclusion worthwhile. Your pursuit of unreliable sources speaks for itself. No offense is intended but you are not adequately prepared to seek out information needed to draw an informed conclusion, much less come to one.

We are here to offer our opinions to someone asking it.. I had researched the disease for a while and had thought that it matched.

This poor woman is suffering. What's wrong with offering her a suggestion on what it could be. That's what we're here for!

Like I said, if you had the condition yourself, I'm sure it would be a whole different story.. I'm done arguing with you. It's all immature. This woman found what she needed and she's happy with what she found here. just leave it at that

So then i took my dog to the dermitoligest to see about mites and they said they were not sure because 75% of the time you can not see a mite so I spent $400 there got my carpets cleaned and they are still there. then i went to the primary doc and got blood work and he also gave me a cream for the body but not hair or face because it was to strong but lice shampoo only helps for a few days and its killing my hair. they look white and when they fall out of my hair almost like a thin long string and when they get on my clothing and try to pick it out it comes more into the clothing.when i pluck my eyebrows or hair on my face the white thing comes out. sometimes when i can get one on tape its white on one side and the other is black. they bite and sometimes sting. I look on the internet and i am woundering if its a bacteria infection in my mouth from a took that has been hurting for a while now.
I had the same type of mites.You are not crazy and neither am I or the other hundreds of people that I have come across while researching my own problem. Have you seen what appears to be glitter on sheets or body? I noticed it on my sheets that I was ironing and two days ago I found some type of mite that i believe to be a biting midge in my hair. Anyway I went to the emergency room and they gave me a script for Lindane. The permethrian cream does not work for these type of mites. Anyway when I put this cream on i began noticing those shiny specs where all over my body. It looked like I had used body glitter. They had apparently been imbedded in my skin and the Lindane made them come out. This must be some type of new bug because noone seems to know what it is or how to get rid of it. That was good advice about using the olive oil. There is now some type of super lice out and they are immuned to regular lice shampoo according to CBS news. there is a link for that news segment if you will google head lice. You can also order Lindane off internet, but I probley wouldn't use it on the child as it is VERY poisonous. Good luck and know that you arenot crazy or alone. mmarsha P.S. I'm still seeking answers.
