Good Sounds Good

Richard Kuhns asked:




Generally when one thinks of skin parasites, they think of scabies and ring worm for which the medical profession is well equipped.

Unfortunately I contracted the types of skin parasites about which doctors know nothing. I was doing my yearly back yard Spring clean-up when it happened. As I pulled a strangulating vine from a tree I noticed a cloud of dust descending upon me. I disposed of the vine, decided to call it quits, and took a shower thinking no more of the dust cloud.

My profession is about managing stress and the use of hypnosis for eliminating unhealthy habits. Within a month my life changed to the point that I was on the brink of anxiety panic attack.

Two days later while visiting my mother; my lady friend, Fran, and I began itching all over our bodies. We immediately left for home and took hot baths which provided relief. But within hours we were both itching again. The next few days were horrendous and confusing as we used everything we could to get rid of them–anti itch creams, rid, Nix…

I deduced the source of the infection was that cloud of dust but that did little good. Soon we realized that our bedding was contaminated and we began laundering our bedding daily with bleach. We took scalding baths two-to-three times per day to control the itching and biting. And then we realized that the bugs were all over the house-on the furniture, in the rugs… Thinking it must be some kind of mite, I ordered diatomaceous earth and dusted it all over the house.

Realizing how prolific the mites were, I treated my front and rear yard and all the shrubs with an insecticide that kills jiggers.

Fran went to her doctor who found nothing and at her urging he prescribed Elimite. We both used it thinking life would soon be normal only to find that within four days all symptoms returned.

I went to a dermatologist who after observing all the bites and rashes, took a plug sample for analysis and prescribed antibiotics along with Diprolene. Again we had about four days of relative freedom and then all symptoms returned. My doctor called to inform me that the analysis of the plug sample showed nothing.

I tried everything I could think of–boric acid, sulfur… I mixed sulfur with Vaseline and applied it to my skin. I looked like I was jaundiced with liver disease; my silver hair was yellow. I noticed that my arms sparkled in sun light-maybe the eggs of the parasite.

After about three months of living in this hell. I experimented with approximately 30,000 mg of garlic and found that the symptoms stopped. After a few days I thought I was cured and stopped the garlic only to have the itching and biting return within days.

Fran moved away and got rid of her infestation with a product called Liquid Needles and ice baths. I could never bring myself to an ice bath and the Liquid Needles were like a band aid.

I relied heavily on garlic and eventually was at about 200,000 mg per day-I was popping those little round capsules like candy. I really didn’t notice any garlic odor about me so my body must have been using all the garlic or I was oozing it from my pores and was oblivious to it.

Ultimately I confided in a friend who suggested that I experiment with diet-an alternative to garlic. I began only eating eggs and within a day all symptoms of itching and biting had subsided. Life can get boring with only eggs so I began adding one new food at a time. I found that anything with wheat or oat flour caused symptoms to return. Rice was safe. Fruit was a big problem. The next couple years was about experimenting with various foods.

Eventually I found an old-timer doctor who was familiar with bird mites. He prescribed ORAP which along with the diet enabled me to eventually expand my diet to what I identify as Stage II of the diet. The ORAP was stopped after ten weeks and I remained on Stage II of the diet for nearly ten years during which time I got married, had normal intimate relations, and was free of being contagious as long as I remained on Stage II of the diet.

Over the years I helped dozens of other sufferers rid themselves of the symptoms with the diet. I also found that the itching and biting symptoms can be caused by several different organisms:

o Nematodes such as Strongyloides stercoralis

o Morgellons

o Collembola (spring tails)

o Fungi

o Mites

I also learned that Lyme and Protozoan infections often accompany the parasites compromising one’s immune system further complicating any attempts at treatment. And what’s more frustrating is that the Lyme and Protozoan are not easily diagnosed except for special labs such as Bowen Labs in Florida and Igenix in California.

I learned that there are diagnostic tests for some of parasites but with most of them there are no diagnostic procedures much less treatment.

All of what I’ve learned is in an e-book, Soothing the Itch Within and the Diet to Control It. It has all the specifics of the diet, disinfection and
bathing protocols, medical approaches including transcripts with specialists in
the field, alternative approaches-rifing, ionic minerals, bentonite clay, faith healing–a chapter of testimonials, treatment of Lyme, Protozoan…

Sheri Cole asked:




Skin tags are delicate, flesh-colored growths that obtrude out from the skin surface. They normally show up in mid-life, under the arms, on the neck, and near the eyes. If you have them, then you might be interested in finding out how to remove skin tags as they can be unattractive and can actually catch on your clothing making them inconvenient as well. Skin tags can be removed at home or by your doctor.

The usual procedures done at the doctor’s clinic or office are:

o Cutting or snipping the skin tag off at the base

o Binding them off to impede the blood flow, therefore causing the skin tag to disappear

o Finally, your doctor may freeze it, much the same as you would a wart.

The removal of skin tags can also be done at home by means of the same procedure as your doctor would. The binding or tying it off method is almost certainly the safest; however it entails five to seven days for the skin tag to go down. The tying off procedure eradicates the blood flow to that area and so, the skin tag falls off.

The next way to remove skin tags involves the usage of liquid nitrogen to freeze the skin tag. There are many products on the market for warts removal and skin tags by means of liquid nitrogen to freeze them off. On the other hand, as the store bought products are not that powerful, these products should only be utilized for small skin tags.

The last method is a bit more radical and only the bravest of souls will want to try this at home. It is recommended, that you have this done at the doctors, in a sterile environment as it involves cutting and snipping them off, and this may sound very painful, nonetheless, it feels much like a mere pinch. This is the quickest treatment to remove skin tags. Extra care should be undertaken when applying this procedure and the clippers should be sterilized first.
