I'm not sure where this goes but it's mens health so i'll ask here. If it doesn;t belong here please point me in the right direction.




It's been 2 weeks but everytime I go to sleep I can never sleep because my whole body starts itching, then I start feeling stuff run all over my body but nothing is there, I also feel my skin as if it has a heartbeat and the bump from whatever is causing it. Anyone know what this is? I wanna sleep again but I can't and feel this all incredibly night every night! Then again there are times I feel this and i'm not even in bed....I wash myself every day and laundry 2 times a week.

More Info. Please
Need more info. How old are you, where do you live, alcohol/drug use? How long has this been going on? What do you mean by a bump in your skin? It does not sound like a hygene issue. Any history of neuro. Problems?

22 and a half.


Bc canada.


Alcohol rarely, drug none ever.


Been going on a few weeks, before that it was rarely.


What I mean is my skin feels like it beats and my skin go up and down although it's not but I feel a beat but I presume that's normal I hope. Shocked sometimes it can keep me up all night, others 3 or 4 hours in which I rarely get any sleep...Ever! It's constant. Starts with itching then feels like crawling on skin and can feel my skin go bump bump bump...Hard to explain.


No, no to that last problem.

Go to a doctor or dermatologist and find out. I'm sure there are several possibilities so don't think i'm experienced and am cutting it down to one, but the only one I know about is morgellon's disease, so ask about that when you go. But don't bring it up until after they've asked questions and examined you, wouldn't want to lead them.

that sounds right at the description. My head is itching right now. If that's what I got then damn...No cure so i'd be screwed and have to keep feeling this for god knows how long. I hope that's not what I have.

Edit- I dont think that's what I have...I don't have the oozing and sores, just the itching and feeling of crawling.

No cure eh? Well, then let's hope that's not it. I had thought it was a parasite, which if it was it should have a cure, though maybe not western. Parasites could be handled with internal and external medicines. Boosting your immune system and taking parasite killing herbs would help internally. While externally you could use things like seabuckthorn oil, east cape manuka oil, and tea tree oil to kill them. Then keep your house clean and do a parasite kill. Clothes, furniture, bedding, mattress, etc.


Anyway, hope it's something easier to fix and diagnose. If it is a parasite, keep what I said in mind and learn more about other options too.
