Hi My name is Jaime and I googled €œ I bought cedar and it started to turn white€� thats how I got to your chat to start reading.... Im finding this to be very interesting because for a few years now I have been battling something of which I dont know but has caused me Havoc in my life .... I live across the street from a farm and woods behind my house also have a man made lake little further into the woods... I have been to so many drs and they all think Im having severe anxiety attacks but I know what I see I have pretty good eye sight and a microscope but I dont know what it is Im even looking for I thought maybe a bug of some sort then I thought mold or even both.... however I have bought cedar a few times from the store to put into closets to keep moths n such away in all the years I have bought cedar Ive never had this happen when I open the package the cedar starts to turn white tiny black dots and something that almost resembles glitter or iridescent white almost spider web looking or hair like I have seen things in my home that move but not in any way fast and not a lot but its definitly moving I have heard the popping crackling in my bed and my bedding feels like something is moving under me... I sleep w a heating pad a lot due to cramps and back pain and the fact that my husband likes the fan on and I freeze.... I have felt in in my car and I almost feel like either its in my water or in my vents because it has gotten out of control.... I have washed everything in my house in hot or warm water to try n kill what ever this is and its not working rubbing alcohol seems to make it react.... I have been seeing an allergist for 2 yrs now n get shots every week due to not being g able to breathe wake up choking and an inhaler now coughing and breathing seems to get worse and skin rashes or blisters that itch intesley get really red then w in a day a bulls eye white pus or something forms dead center.... after a while I started to log what was happening that was the same everytime it would get really active and at first I thought it keeps happening on wed or thurs most of the time so I thought my shots may have been contributing missed my shots on purpose for 3 weeks and still kept happening then I realized it was humid had rained was about to rain raining and even when it snowed it also seems to happen mostly at night.... my clothing in some of my shoes are ruined from whatever this is it seems to tunnel kinda like ants I guess or even a spider these very fine hair like things are what I keep finding along with white or black dots tiny tiny lol things I got a 60 xs microscope n I still cant always make out what it is the ones I can see look like a ball of fuzzies or thread like maybe something in the middle but its so small Im not equipped to try n see if there is only recently has my one son been getting bit or whatever it is and it seems to have started on the scalp and arms lower legs face neck then back usually a few scattered or sometimes just one big one.... I know Im not crazy Im ready to have someone come out to test the air quality in my home but its a few thousand dollars... I have already spent so much on exterminators drs over the counter meds it is almost driving me out of my home.... I went to the er once because of this and while they had me wait 5 hrs I was the last patient the dr smiled in said their are a lot of people like me ( was very rude and I felt belittled) I told him I know it sounds crazy but its not like I said there were aliens or something going to invaid and attack us or I was talking to people that arent there ..... I was saying something that Could really happen maybe a bug maybe some kind of bacteria or mold I dont know and everyone just wants to write me off with stress anxiety or chiggers or allergy to dog n cat or dust mites to detergent but I use the same thing Ive always used ... while at the er my mom said Jaime your boob is leaking something and I looked down my bra and shirt was wet with some sort of oil wet like substance but didnt smell of anything I cut open my bra to see if it was something vs puts in the bras to make them push up and it was just foam....dr had no explanation for that though.... when I washed the shirt oil was gone .... Im at the point where it is driving me crazy n I need to know exactly what this is..... Im afraid it is really gonna cause some harm to me n my family eventually because my coughing is getting worse yet when Im not home Im ok for the most part unless its raining or humid when it gets really hot out and Im sweating too.... please if you can help me at all Im not gonna stop until I have good evidence backing up my answer cause the oh its this or oh it could be that isnt helping me I cant kill the source if I dont know what Im dealing with... wasting time energy money its very frustrating and upsetting to know that I have never lied to my family n friends and Im not one that likes attention drawn to me Espescially like this I would never want my once beautiful face and body scared and like this and now having to get shots every week and sleep w an inhaler and something living in my bed clothes couches carpet no sorry Id rather not have any attention on me at all its embarrasing n why would I want to tell people I think I have bugs in my home when twice had my house bombed and still hasnt killed what ever this is.... any help or brainstorming is appreciated. Thanks I hope you can help.
Jaime
