Guest guest Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 We've all been there - been treated like we're nuts, too bad we wasted our time. They quickly decide we're all 'DP' (delusional). Once, in the doctor's office , I saw two of them looking and talking to each other and then one of the doctors came to me and asked me if I thought the Mites were living on me and in me. ... they were just looking to prove their point. But I dissappointed them when I said I don't feel the bites if I am not at home. Thank GOD for this forum.

I later took them to the hospital, but a nurse told me that they would not be able to identify them and to send them to the state or something. In retrospect, I know at that point they had already made up their minds that I was delusional and needed psych meds, etc. It was so crazy. My life has been too crazy lately since this all began. Oh well, it is rainy here today and I have had a few bites but they are like tiny, tiny pin prick bites on my legs. It is hard going through this. I cleaned a little this morning which helped.

I think the hardest part of this condition is when no one believes you. My break through was when I finally found how to collect and identify the bugs on me. My first attempt failed as the doctor I took them too smashed my samples with sticky tape. After that, I placed them on the slides and showed her myself. My Infectious Disease Doctor saw them, too. I got my samples by take a large bath with one cup of Lysol Complete Clean. After submerging with a breathing straw for 30 minutes and combing my hair under water, I had these little black specks all over the bottom of the tub. After draining the water, I used a small stick to get them and put them in a container. I hope you can collect your specimens soon. > > > Love and light, > > > . > > > > > > From: whatstheuse2 terelynjon@...> > Subject: My story > bird mites > Date: Friday, September 23, 2011, 3:15 PM > > > > > > > > Hi, Just wanted to tell you that I went to my PCP last Wed. for my Valium refill, told him my story and my sister-in-law who was present was telling him about how horrible this has been for me for the past 4-5 months, how I ripped out all my carpet, have been throwing things out of my house, and spent thousands of dollars, etc., etc. Anyway he consulted with another PCP in there and told me that he wanted me to have a psych consult in the ER.
