    I hope someone has seen some improvement in their condition. I have the exact same problems you are and just recently was able to diagnose what my problem even was. The demandex mites have gotten into my hair and they're needing it it's ruined I've talked to every doctor that I've seen it's due to my anti immune condition that I suffer and my low white cell blood count. I've asked every doctor I've seen trying to get something somewhere in the last doctor I talked to was an ER doctor and without even looking at me he said shave your head and do have lice and I said this is not lice and I'm a woman and I'm not going to shave my head as I held back tears. Since that date I've been afraid to even go to my doctor's to talk to them about it again. What has worked anything please teach her your oil has been ineffective I have put every single thing I can think of in my hair from vinegar to apple cider vinegar to pure rubbing alcohol 91% and they just won't go away it's ruining my life and nobody seems to understand. I hear that everybody has hair that begins to thin around my age This is not the same thing and they just don't see it. Anyway when I keep up with this group to see if anybody has come across anything that works. I was looking today at a box of stuff that I was given by a friend and they had a honey treatments in there and I might try that because I've done a little research on it but not a lot and I found this group called doing my research. Best to all Holly

      The fact that this post was written today makes me feel better, just a little. All the research seems old. I am suffering horribly. I have tried all things listed.. even been to a dermatologist, eye doctor, and teledoc. The teledoc doctor was very familiar with it, but couldn’t prescribed anything unless I was diagnosed. He stated that dead skin needs to be scraped off in the area and placed under a microscope… he said there is a pill that will help once I get diagnosed. I just send new pictures to my dermatologist.. I’m thinking about sending a link to this thread.. because she said “you definitely don’t have bugs” but could tell me what it was that I was feeling. She diagnosed with ccc alopecia.. but it’s the mites that’s ruining me hair and teeth!!!

      The worst of my infestation and symptoms was in my scalp. I didn realize it until I shaved my head. I am a guy so was not a big deal, but I was able to treat my scalp much easier, was badly infested with demodex
