Hi Blackcat,

can you tell me why you are using it? If you think it's going to do something for the lyme I can tell you it won't do a thing... Tried it and it didn't touch it.

If you are under the mistaken impression that the creepy crawleys is caused by scabies you would also be wrong. It's caused by demyelination. [Eek!]

no, julia

i believe that many of us are infected with filarial nematodes which ticks have also been found to carry.

I don't know where you live, but in the US I don't think the FDA has approved ivermetcin for the use in humans.
