Noticed Bruises And Blisters All Over Face And Body After Shower. Diagnosed Scabies. Suffer Severe Pain. Suggestions?

I know it all sounds completely insane, I would think so if someone told me all of this. But anybody who knows me knows that I have always been healthy & an athlete my whole life. I have never had any fears or phobias of mites or lice...Im desparate for answers bc I have a daughter to raise & Im not sure how much longer I can live in agony!! Please help!
Thanks for the query.
I understand your concern and I believe you.
The only problem is that your symptoms are so varying that it is hard to give an explaination.
First of all be sure that it is not a mite or lice or even scabies, these insects can not be so severe.
So an insect as a cause can be totally ruled out.
Another important thing you mentioned is that you get aggravation of symptoms when you take bath and also there is pain and swelling.
The most probable cause of all your symptoms is urticarial vasculitis.
A biopsy is needed to to confirm diagnosis.
I dont know why it was not done till today.
You may require treatment with steroids and immunoglobulins.
Pleas XXXXXXX a dermatologist and discuss regarding this. Steroids are prescription drugs.
If possible upload a few photographs. This will help me in giving a closer diagnosis.
I really want to help you.
Lets see how much I can.
Wishing you a good health and waiting for your response.
Thank you


There are many more symptoms as more time passes by. Like the strange & painful bruising & swelling out of nowhere, the huge egg-like lumps that pop up underneath my skin always right before my skin will have another breakout in sores, & then the severe stomach pain & swelling. Oh & constant fatigue that is getting worse & worse.
My infectious disease Dr got my blood work back yesterday & she said almost everything looked good except for some type of virus in my blood?? I think that steroids are on of the scripts that she called in but I still don't think I am going to get the answers I need bc she just sounds clueless & she doesn't seem to believe that any type of mite is related. I don't think I have been verbal enough about the feeling that some type of living organism feels like they have infested my body.
I do have some very good photos that you had wanted me to upload for you. I have one of the crazy bruises on my inner knee that pop up in minutes, one of the many random lumps that look just like an egg is underneath my skin, & of a few open sores that were in between my shoulder blades where I couldn't even reach & each open sore always has two holes in the middle with a strange top layer of a clear sticky substance. Im not sure how to upload or send the photos without sending u an e mail, so please let me know the best way to get them to you & I will send them right away.
Thanks again for taking the time to try and make some sense of this all...I know its a lot of info & Im a little bit scattered, but I think Im explaining this all the best I know how over a computer. I have been suffering for so long now & I have to do whatever it takes to get answers soon bc I have a daughter & family that need me & Im not sure how much longer I can continue living in torture.
Thank u for your time, Kendall Edwards
Thanks for the follow up.
I totally agree with you that you are suffering.
The only thing I doubt is that a mite or some parasite is the cause.
Parasites cannot cause such severe symptoms.
Surely I would like to see the photographs.
There is an option to upload photographs on right side of query page.
Upload all the relevant photos which you feel are good.
Hope I could help you.
Waiting for your response.
Thank you
