Re: I am hearing voices not of my own
yes, I am actually aware and do try to keep myself apprised of the current data that is out there for these types of illnesses. The problem is, I am not convinced this is the case for Maggie. She has not stated that she has been diagnosed and I fear that she has not. Her "voices" did not want the Morgellons to be known, and that sounds suspect. I sincerely hope that she makes an appointment with medical professionals

Re: I am hearing voices not of my own
Maggie,
I detect a lot of fear in your post. You are afraid because you do not understand what is happening to you. That's normal--we all get afraid when things happen to us that we do not understand.

The doctors may not have helped you as much as you like, I'm sure. But they have helped you a little, yes? More importantly, the doctors have greater understanding and knowledge. You should trust the doctors -- at least the ones who have helped you. Don't be afraid to go back to the doctors and try again. They are your best hope.

Hang in there. We are on your side.

Re: I am hearing voices not of my own
hello Maggie
The medications that you have tried consisting of an anticonvulsant and antipsychotics, may not have been the right mix for you. Either go back to the original doctor or find a new one. Having a job and being a mother can put alot of stress on you and may exacerbate your current mental health problem. You need to tell the doctor all of your symptoms, regardless of embarrassment. Be honest with him/her, so that he/she may better prescribe what is necessary for your treatment. I know many people for whom the treatments administered worked and thus the voices have stopped. Their lives have become more productive and their sense of well being has greatly improved. Be good to yourself and take care of this for all the fantastic times ahead with your wonderful daughter. As far as the symptoms of hand, foot and mouth disease, the itching should have already subsided; it only lasts a few days as a general rule. Have you considered an allergy? Or even contact dermatitis or excema as far as the itch? Food allergies can also be present here and giving her a problem. Start a journal of everything she eats. Schedule an appointment with a dermatologist and bring the journal. The doctor should be able to identify the problem and maybe due some testing as well. Sometimes it is the most common things that can cause a problem, such as apple juice. Also for yourself, make notes of any behaviour that may occur after certain items are consumed. This will be a great tool if there is a current problem or one that may arise in the future. Good Luck! being a mother is the hardest job that i have found, but certainly the most rewarding

Re: I am hearing voices not of my own
yes I am very scared I don't know what is happening and all these things are happening and the doctors are just so quick to say I am dilessional I hope that is all it is but when my daughter started saying the same thing and of course I never spoke of it in front of her because I didnt want to freak her out it is very hush hush around my house on this matter I call the cdc and they tols me to look up morgeellons .org and I did everything I was explaining to the lady on the phone was right there infront of me I had never heard of this disease and I had described almost every symptom rite down to the colors of the strings or fibers what ever they are then came the voices but they came after the cuts and weird things stopped happening to me

Maggie,
go ahead and make a doctor's appointment today.
We would all be interested in how that goes, and how much better you feel after that.

Re: I am hearing voices not of my own
Maggie, no matter how many doctors you have seen don't give up, sometimes it takes several before one can connect with you and figure out what is wrong. don't give up, help is available, you just have to find it. If you are seeing regular doctors please see a psychiatrist, it's not a bad thing to see a psychiatrist, they can help. Just don't give up, it is distinctly possible you have a problem that is unusual and it might take several doctors before you find one that recognizes your problem. Hearing voices needs to be attended to, please keep in touch and let us know how it goes.

Re: I am hearing voices not of my own
Maggie, Please do use the links that I have provided. It is my opinion that you should change psychiatrists; this one is not working for you.
I must say, that I question her suggestion as that type of comment would only serve to heighten your fears. Private message me if you have any more concerns
