Help! Pregnant With Morgellons;Suggestions Needed
Hi & Thanks for Reading This Post!
I have had the dreaded M for going on one year now. It started out as "scabies", then parasitic worms, tiny flying insects coming from my skin, and now for the last several months, the white tiny worm-like things in my sinus and in the pores of my face, accompanied by the fast flying white dust-like particles that come out of me and try to get back in. For the last month, I've had tons and tons of small blue fibers that come out of every pore and other opening, but most especially in my nose. The white dots/worms and blue fibers have caused horrible pimples which encase them, sometimes as large as a boil (really great on the face). My skin is a bit scaly on my face, but not anywhere else. Anti-fungal creams and nasal rinses help, but nothing knocks them completely out like some of my other symptoms I've had that are now gone.
I found out I was pregnant in September...A total shock! My partner and I are both 45 and came down with Morgellons within two weeks of each other (I had it first). We have been together for about 5 years, and never thought about having children as he was told he was unable to have kids due to an injury! Well, these things "can correct themselves", I was told by the Dr. I have not told my OB about my illness as all attempts at medical help in this area have been met with derision and suggestions to see a shrink.
At 17 weeks, the baby is doing great from what tests and ultrasounds I have had so far...pretty sure it's a "he", and he is so cute! (Imaging is amaazing!) I am very excited, but at the same time, in denial about what this disease might mean for this little one. I have been really doing everything I can think of to eliminate the symptoms before baby arrives in May. Like so many sufferers, I read extensively on this subject as, aside from the excitement of the baby, the disease has taken over my life. I know there are many who are symptom free and I apply what works for my system from what I have learned from them.
I have not seen very many posts on Morgellons and pregnancy, both during and post-partum. Also, it may be of signifigance that both my partner and I had this disease when the miracle conception occured. (He was so floored that he claimed the fibers made it happen!) Any thoughts or suggestions would be so very much appreciated!
