Parasite help !

Posted , 4 users are following.

i believe i am dealing with some sort of parasite but not sure. i have a constant crawling sensation, i also get a pin prick/stinging sensation. i keep getting random scratches that heal almost instantly, and i know i am not scratching myself. my eyes and nasal are always itching it seems. at first i thought it was scabies but i dont have an itchy rash or intense itching. however, my scalp is awfully itchy these days and im always losing hair. also, my skin has become very flaky as well as my scalp.

anyone have any ideas on what i may be dealing with?

    Apparently this is a common thing . I have had the same symptoms before . The Dr. ended up giving me an anti fungal cream and Tetracycline oral antibiotic because i kept picking at it ,trying to "clean " it i took off the top layer of skin causing awful l scars.

    also looks up "Morgellons Disease "

    there is no answer so far to these mystery symptoms . Don't let it drive you insane,It WILL get better !(if you stop touching it .)

    I hope you find an answer

    Its hard to say what it is. I do not think parasites cause hair loss. I havent heard of that happening.
