Guest guest Posted September 10, 2011 Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 Hi all, It's been several months now since my husband and I have had any symptoms at all. We've have people at our home all summer and been gradually letting go of all the rituals to prevent mite bites and kill them. Our clothing is back in our dressers, we sleep in our bed as we did previous to the bird mite infestation. We will never know if the bite mites are gone for good... because it is a mysterious situation to say the least. They gradually disappeared from our lives over time. The last bite I had was in my car ~6 months ago. So we suffered from mysterious microscopic clear bird mites for 2 1/2 years in total. They lived in our home and we seemed to leave a trail of them where ever we went. The most horrifying part was that they infected us with some microorganism which attracted biting bites to us where ever we went. It was just like having scabies except that it didn't go away with medical tx and the bites never bite us in the places where scabies bite and the bites rarely even itched. Instead the bites were like the prick of a sharp needle and left what looked like tiny red hard spider bites all over our bodies, which frequently lasted for months and months. Something about 1 bite seemed to attack more bites to the area. We had several of these bites biopsied because the MD's were concerned it may be a contagious folliculiis rather than mites. 4 out of 4 biopsies over 2 years came back as bites. So what may have helped us beat this mite mare: * Months of doxycycline 3 times per day, alternated with Months of Bactim DS 2 times per day * Spraying white vinegar and then spraying hydrogen peroxide on the bites frequently. * Rubbing benzyl peroxide into our skin every place where bites had been until completely healed. * Sterifab on things that could not be treated with vinegar, then peroxide, * Sterilizing every possible part of our house and car every way possible for over 2 years. *Colon cleanses 1 time a month *Ironing all clothes and linens after washing *Stick carpet tape around bed What did not help: * Diet changes (only temporary help, no lasting help) * Supplements (only temporary help, no lasting help) * Dr. Staninger's protocol (HUGE waste of money and energy/time) *IR saunas * Roache Proof * Internal vinegar * Internal baking powder *homeopathics (only temporary help, not a cure) *Baths with different cures (only temporary) * a million other things tried because we followed every possible suggestion no matter how expensive or time consuming *heating the house (temporary) * CO2 in the cars (temporary) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
