Brief Answer:
Do you have any itches?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this problem that you have reported.

1. Do you have any itches? There cannot be scabies without itches. Also, it is very rare to see eggs shed by teh rabies bug. Also, resistance to treatment with crotamiton is very unlikely. This makes me think that we may not still be having a strict case of scabies.

2. Scbies never goes beyond teh skin and does it cannot affect your brain.

3. We may also want to treat this with mectizan which is taken by mouth and will reach every part of your body.

I hope this addresses your worry. Keep me updated about the question in 1.

Kind regards.

yes they do itch .if this bug is not resistant to the medications ive listed why do i still have them.i have been told that they dont go above the neck yet thet have found a home inside my ear canals and my sinuses and have reciently populated my scalp.perhaps what i have are not scabies at all because thiese things are deeper than just my skin i believe.something else that ive noticed is the presence of XXXXXXX hairs that mopve in and out of my pours they retract when i touch them thiese hairs are not a part of my person i am a caucasion of norwegion and irish decent and very blonde thiese black hairs or forign objects resembling hair seem to be controled by themselves independant of each other copuld they be somekind of parisite.there is a chicken coop ajoining the bedroom i occupy could this be sopme kind of bird lice that has determined me to be their next choice of a food item since i removed the chickens a month ago.i did find an adult scabie on the sink counter whare it fell fropm my nostrail it was squareishand clear like a clear gelitan mass with arms that reasembled tenticals about the size of a kernal of corn it looked just jike the pictures i found on the inernet

Brief Answer:
I recommend you do the following!

Detailed Answer:
HI and thanks for this decision.

1. I will suggest you ask for a prescription of mectizan. This is a sure drug and would eradicate any scabies bug irrespective of where it is located.

2. I will also recommend that a psychiatrist evaluate you. I am not exactly sure about the behavior of the hair and I strongly believe that we need to review them and how you perceive to make a helpful assessment and plan for you.

I wish you well.
