Guest guest Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 Gee, it is good to hear from you Tony. I was worried about you. I'm recovering from gallbladder surgery which I had yesterday not even one day ago. On heavy meds right now. Tummy is so so sore. But feel I'm recuperating pretty fast.I don't think you will necessarily give anything to your family... here's why. My daughter, her husband , daughter Sophia came to visit when we had the invasion - they did not get a thing. They stayed for 3 weeks. That was over two years ago. They got nothing from the hosue. Sophia got a few bites, but nothing came to be of the bites. No Lyme or Morgellons. She was 3 then. When they returned home, my daughter took Sophia to the doctor for a single bite that would not heal. They gave antibiotics and she never had another indication that she had anything.Since then my second granddaughter had been born and they came again for 3 weeks and no one got a single bite. I was scared out of my wits for them to stay here, but there was no place else they could stay. My daughter was in her best friend's wedding. Someone one from Morgellens Sanctum told me the first visit from friends or family is the hardest and most worrisome. They stayed here, using my washer/dryer, playing on the floor, using the bathrooms, etc. By then whatever we had had mostly had been gone. However, I was still getting bites one year ago, husband stopped getting bites or movement on the face entirely, and had gotten them moderately the year before, but no Morgellons. He did acquire Lyme Disease. I was still getting movement around the eyes, nose primarily and, of course, legs and feet. What you are attracting they may not be attracting. That's what I learned from all of us. Even my husband did not get long terms effects I got.As far as the Morgies go I'm getting fewer and fewer of the sensations anywhere. I haven't had sensations on my face or hair in 6 months. I started doing the FAR Infrared and Dr. S protocol for the last several months. I still had movement on the feet, buttocks, sometimes into private parts, hand. No lesions for 1 year at least. My friend Lynn with Morgellons told me to start doing foot bath with essential oils for feet. I got the foot water bath, started using Eucalyptus, peppermint and tea tree in the foot bath. I also started orally high doses of MSM - 1500 mg per day. I have little to no foot movement since doing this. I think the combination is keeping them down to almost non-existent level. The MSM is powerful... but the foot baths too. The first time I soaked the feet, dried feet with a towel and touched the feet with hand. I then started to get sensations on the hand that was touching the foot. It did transfer and I've experienced that before, but as soon as I started the MSM I've had almost no sensations anywhere. So taking 3,000 mg of MSM now. This is just my experience. I'm going back to bed, but so glad to hear from you again Tony. I hope you can get a handle on all of this. From the little amount sister and family will be in the house, I doubt if they will get anything. Quit pulling out eyelashes, that doesn't help. Shave other areas where they want to tend to crawl in and out. Shaving helps for some darn reason. It almost seems like they look for a hair to come out with. Preserve eyes and eyebrows. I had the hardest time getting them out of my hair. I have very thick hair, but they are out. Re: How can I avoid passing this on to someone? Hey Peeps how are you? I'm totally messed up. This is getting worse on my face. They are constantly crawling all over my face and biting around my eyes. Also, I have the burn sensation on my eye lids. NOTHING works. I'm not kidding, I tried it all except hardcore drugs. I am waiting for winter already because spring makes this worse. I am pulling out my eyelashes because they are in there too inside the folicles and also in my throat. I'm worried about spreading this shit. All I have to do is breathe and they are coming out my nose. I have a sister, brother and his wife visiting from the coast they are planning on visiting here over the 4th of July. What do I do? I want to see them but I don't want to seem like I'm being a rude jerk. They said they want to stay at a hotel but they want to come here for barbecue crap, you know just hang on the back porch and yard. Is that safe? What do I do? Does anyone know if this is easily spread to family members? Is it ok if they just hang out on the back porch? What if they want to go inside? My sister said she wants to go in and look at old photos of our Mom and stuff. They will probably want to come in and use the bathroom too. Oh man what to do? Also I'm embarrased that they see me with my eyes all swollen and bloodshot looking, it looks like the x beat me up or something. Anyway thanks for listening to me. I hope you guys are having better luck than me. Thanks,Tony> >> >I'm going to be going to my home country and seeing my family; partly bc I've been away for too long and partly because the mites along with the depression are making me feel almost disabled, so I am taking a break.

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 Thank you dear Bobbie. Appreciate your thoughts. I'll take it very easy to day and be careful about my foods. Bland foods and liquids. Re: How can I avoid passing this on to someone? , I'm sending you lots of good healing vibes. GB surgery is pretty tough so keep up the fast healing and dont overdo for a while!

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 Hi Tony I remember a poster saying he had the bug on the face & eyes , he used 1tbls borax & 1 gallon of water & a wet washcloth & left it on his face for 30 mins, 2 times per day . He said he even slept with it over his face & it stopped them . ..I tried it it works great . I uses a stronger dose then 1 tbls & it burned & caused strange holes to form in my face , blood even came out of the holes , so I reduced the mix to 1 -2 tbls , no borax more or it burns after 20 mins of soaking. I found a shirt works real good cause I can poke my nose out the opening where the shirt buttons down so I can breath while I soak . ( or s rag with a nose hole cut in it ) This borax soak has not fa@led yet , I have to do it for weeks & weeks or it comes back I soaked my feet in 3 tbls borx & 3 cups of water n my rubber gloshes , 30 mins per day , 2 times per day for 60 days & my feet are bugless , 100 percent now . I wear cowboy boots to keep them protected & bleach the boots weekly & dry in front of a fan in 36 hrs , then sprinkle 3 tbls baking soda in them & slap them together to full coat the in side , baking soda is highly caustic , it kills bugs well This peroxide & borax & water mix ( below) stopped the burning sensation in 3 mins for me, did it stop it for you ? I had it so bad I thought it would catch fire . http://www.earthclinic.com/Pets/dog_mange_cure.html The mix: 2 tblspns borax (20 mule team Borax laundry booster 16 oz peroxide (3%) 32 oz water. mix it , and the borax nuetralizes the peroxide so there is no burn & no fizz from the peroxide Also for the eyes if I wet the lids & eyebrows & then apply betadine slowly & carefully with my eyes closed snug , but not too tight or they leak , apply betadine for 5 mins then rine well after 5 min it killed the oones on my eyes .. Betadine is painless , if it gets in the eye it burns a little like soap , I don't get it in my eye though only on the eye & it seems to soak into the thin skin area I pray this helps you , God will help he is wonderful .. Keep the faith , Bye , Bill ps if you don't want peopple inn you house , begin a paint job with lots blue tape & dollar store plastic dropcloths & lots of drywall dust ... : ) , no one wants to come in then , it works great . & it a great excuse for white powder all over everything , borax arm & hammer powdered laundry soap , all in the guise of drywall dust & remodeling . 'Gee everyone let's go stay at the hotel. ' yea ! They all say ... . I use it all the time , it s abug kill it , it will die On Sat Jun 5th, 2010 4:37 AM EDT tonysvenson wrote: >Hey Peeps how are you? I'm totally messed up. This is getting worse on my face.

When we are born we are given four sets, two from each parent. Not all in the family has them and they definately do have an influence on how the immune system functions in the individual family members. Ie: breast cancer, not everyone in the family gets it except for those with the specific gene combinations. I don't believe the smell figures in the initial infection, otherwise we would have had a lifetime of problems. The attraction begins after the infestation, so what existed prior to it to allow the infestation to take hold in the first place.

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 I don't know you Tony, but I do know you're a rude and selfish person for taking over my thread when I only had gotten 2 responses. That was incredibly assholish.Now every time I come to check if I got any new responses all I find is long conversations among the 'regulars' clique. I have less than a week to see my brother and I don't know yet of another forum to discuss this, so this was just fucked up rude garbage. But what goes around comes around and it did. Now the regulars took over so both of us got ignored regardless of the title of the thread. The title means nothing, this is why moderated groups are superior, then rude inconsiderate people get banned for pulling this kind of bs.Sent on the Sprint® Now Network from my BlackBerry®From: rose <auberginedream777@...>Date: Sat, 5 Jun 2010 15:30:53 -0700 (PDT)<bird mites >Subject: Re: Re: How can I avoid passing this on to someone? irony well HH the offer still stands to join the CCO...Cilantro Chewing Organization...We will cap Your cilantro for the 1st month but after that ..all bets are off!!!From: healinghope <mfrreman >bird mites Sent: Sat, June 5, 2010 11:58:49 AMSubject: Re: How can Iavoid passing this on to someone?

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 Are you sure them got it or did you just notice the symptoms on them? I used to see this on so many people but they might have just been suffering from something else. I lived in my friends room for about three months. The place was covered with them. When my friend came back she got two bites after i left but nothing ever developed further. She knew my description of them and was really paranoid for a week. I even used to sleep in the same bed with someone and i could totally feel them react when i got in. The other person never noticed them.

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 I saw the tiny holes that the mites make on my skin on the baby's face, and the home of the other person was completely infested with the small spider-like thing I first got, and the wood started getting those weird embedding-like holes that I got all over my floor. Besides, there were horrible, monster-like fibers everywhere (they only cleaned the house once a week) and the bathroom tiles had fungus gnats. Then there were also ants. Whereas the first times I was there, I didn't see a single insect. I told the dad about his kid having insects and how I had moved the bed and carpet away from the wall, and asked him if he (the son, 4-yr-old) was getting bitten. He said "he likes me to scratch his back at night but he liked it when his mom did that to." The mom had died over a year ago, so it's hard to tell. But I did find fibers everywhere in the kid's room, especially the bed, and even more and bigger horrible fibers in the dad's computer room.Sent on the Sprint® Now Network from my BlackBerry®From: <danielwalker94949@...>Date: Sat, 5 Jun 2010 20:17:53 -0700 (PDT)<bird mites >Subject: Re: Re: How can I avoid passing this on to someone?

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 That's a scary story and a sad oneFrom: "helpnynow@..." <helpnynow@...>Bird Mites Newsgroup <bird mites >Sent: Sat, June 5, 2010 9:54:20 PMSubject: Re: Re: How can I avoid passing this on to someone? I saw the tiny holes that the mites make on my skin on the baby's face, and the home of the other person was completely infested with the small spider-like thing I first got, and the wood started getting those weird embedding-like holes that I got all over my floor. Besides, there were horrible, monster-like fibers everywhere (they only cleaned the house once a week) and the bathroom tiles had fungus gnats. Then there were also ants. Whereas the first times I was there, I didn't see a single insect. I told the dad about his kid having insects and how I had moved the bed and carpet away from the wall, and asked him if he (the son, 4-yr-old) was getting bitten. He said "he likes me to scratch his back at night but he liked it when his mom did that to." The mom had died over a year ago, so it's hard to tell. But I did find fibers everywhere in the kid's room, especially the bed, and even more and bigger horrible fibers in the dad's computer room.Sent on the Sprint® Now Network from my BlackBerry®From: <danielwalker94949> Date: Sat, 5 Jun 2010 20:17:53 -0700 (PDT)<bird mites>Subject: Re: Re: How can I avoid passing this on to someone? Are you sure them got it or did you just notice the symptoms on them? I used to see this on so many people but they might have just been suffering from something else. I lived in my friends room for about three months. The place was covered with them. When my friend came back she got two bites after i left but nothing ever developed further. She knew my description of them and was really paranoid for a week. I even used to sleep in the same bed with someone and i could totally feel them react when i got in. The other person never noticed them. On Sat Jun 5th, 2010 11:05 PM EDT helpnynowgmail (DOT) com wrote: >Thanks for your experience, but we might not have the same bug?

Did you ever try the peroxide & borax & water on the burning sensations? , just wondering , it stopped mine in 3 mins . Before I learned of this mix it tooks 4 days to stop it with sulfur creme 1 teasp & 8 tesp of hand creme & 1 tesp of oil to get the sulfur* liquid like, before I shake up the whole mix in an opaque ( easier to measure in ) dishsoap bottle for 30 seconds. * sublime sulfur by Humco from www.americarx.com $12.00 God bless you Tony , Bill ps I posted this am to you , did you see it ? about 1 tbls borax & 1 gal of water on a rag on the face for 30 mins , r times per day & evensleeping withthe rag on , itis painless & works for sure for me , it takes weeks & weeks to end it completely pss helpny..

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2010 Report Share Posted June 6, 2010 Sorry to hear this Tony It can destroy your family/social life, but you will get better by implementing people's suggestions.

I'm totally messed up. This is getting worse on my face. They are constantly crawling all over my face and biting around my eyes. Also, I have the burn sensation on my eye lids. NOTHING works. I'm not kidding, I tried it all except hardcore drugs. I am waiting for winter already because spring makes this worse. I am pulling out my eyelashes because they are in there too inside the folicles and also in my throat. I'm worried about spreading this shit. All I have to do is breathe and they are coming out my nose. I have a sister, brother and his wife visiting from the coast they are planning on visiting here over the 4th of July. What do I do? I want to see them but I don't want to seem like I'm being a rude jerk. They said they want to stay at a hotel but they want to come here for barbecue crap, you know just hang on the back porch and yard. Is that safe? What do I do? Does anyone know if this is easily spread to family members? Is it ok if they just hang out on the back porch? What if they want to go inside? My sister said she wants to go in and look at old photos of our Mom and stuff. They will probably want to come in and use the bathroom too. Oh man what to do? Also I'm embarrased that they see me with my eyes all swollen and bloodshot looking, it looks like the x beat me up or something. Anyway thanks for listening to me. I hope you guys are having better luck than me.
