Wanted to pop on here and give you guys some good news, especially if you’re struggling to get rid of this horrible thing.
I had scabies for 9 months and had about 5-6 failed treatments. I did permethrin alone a few times then also 2-3 attempts with Ivermectin too. Nothing was working!

This time I decided to do permethrin and ivermectin on day 1, then again on day 10 then the big difference, a THIRD ivermectin treatment on day 20. I haven’t had a single burrow for about 4 weeks and the itchiness has gone.

I got so down and read lots of people say that ivermectin etc doesn’t work and you need to do sulphur baths etc etc… I’m proof it does, even after failed treatments. I would rly recommend doing that third treatment.

Hope this helps

Anyone had any tattoos with a mended VSD or similar? I had the op about 26 years ago and it’s fully healed. NHS always advises people with congenital heart disease to avoid them but I can’t see why my risk is much higher…? I’m aware of how bad endocarditis is but my understanding is that the risk is tiny, like way below 1%. Is that true? Keen to hear peoples experiences
