Thank you jimzilla and twll

That was an interesting read, jimzilla, especially the old medical text, appreciate it!

"The despairing condition of mind sometimes induced by the long-continued tormenting sensations..."
Henry Hartshorne, 1880

Sadly seems the suffering goes back to Victorian times and beyond. I read somewhere that the Roman armies were infested and they liked to soak in sulphur-rich mineral springs when they could.

I've got the sublimed sulphur powder,"flowers of sulphur" (Humco) which I bought online and sulphur soap also purchased online. I've used sulphur soap quite a while. The kind of scabies I have appears somewhat resistant to sulphur. It seems to inhibit them but not kill outright. The scabies I have definitely are resistant to permethrin.

Could be I'm not using the more effective kind of sulphur, if one is available. I'll look into it. Thanks for the lead!

More die-off today with experimental protocol. My skin IS looking slightly better again.

If I succeed in killing them all I'm going to do a thorough write up describing exactly what I did. So far I've only partly recovered and I still have a few adults emerging from my skin after two weeks...TWO WEEKS! I hoped I would have killed all the adults by now. Every adult female I've got prolongs this as I read they lay 2-3 eggs a day (and I'll bet it's even more).

I'm psyching myself up for the long haul. I think I'll be at this for at least 2 months while I wait for the eggs to hatch so I can kill the larvae. (Nothing kills the eggs or so I've read.)

I don't know HOW many eggs are scattered in my environment...evidently they're microscopic, so all I can do is follow all the cleaning protocols here and posted on other sites. It is SO daunting. Keeping up with the laundry alone is exhausting.

Twll, thanks for your tip.

The first week I had the terrible die-off I had so many dead mites in patches it looked and felt more like a burn than a rash. I couldn't sleep, I took Benadryl, which helped. I think some of the reaction was allergy to all the dead larvae and mites. I didn't sleep one entire night that first week.

About 2AM one morning, during the intense unreal SAVAGE itching keeping me awake, I remembered in my fridge I had kept a bottle of Aloe Vera gel with lidocaine, supposed to be used for sunburn. I got this out and put some on the worse areas under breast, torso and the back and sides of my neck.

It was cool and soothing and helped me get some sleep that night. I used it, only on the worst areas, for the next two nights and it seemed to knock the itching down enough to help me sleep. Meanwhile I managed to exfoliate quite a lot of the dead larvae out of my skin and some of the itching subsided.

I was lucky I had this lidocaine gel. I had bought it from a USA drugstore on one of my trips there. As far as I know this kind of gel can't be bought off the shelf in Canada.

Have to have prescriptions to get most items containing drugs in Canada, which is d*mned hard when you can't get any Doctors to believe what you've got.

"...your own eyes, you are the witness, you are the patient and you are the Doctor..." summed up very neatly, jimzilla
