I'm glad you stumbled onto this site also. I found it interesting what you said about Voltaten Gel and its effect on Morgellons on your face.
In keeping with the 'FIRST DO NO HARM' theme of this website.
I noticed is that Voltaten Gel is a topical use only Perscription Drug that contains Diclofenac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It carries the same warnings as the oral version which is more sever than most NSAIDs. Please see this in the websites linked.
Most Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or NSAIDs act as nonselective inhibitors of the enzyme that catalyzes the formation of Prostaglandins and other supstances in the body. Prostaglandins are hormone-like substances that participate in a wide range of body functions including inflammation and pain. You can read more about Prostaglandins in Wikipedia here.
I have taken several perscriptiion NSAIDs including oral Diclofenac for Pain and Inflammation control. It was done under my Physicians care. He monitered me carefully with blood test etc. to prevent serious complications from their use. I am no longer able to take NSAIDs for long term mangement of Inflammation and Pain due to adverse effects with long term use.
Lady Dee wrote 'I find that hand sanitizer does the same thing in opening the pores so the morgies can come out!'. Since I have taken several NSAIDs at high doses for long periods of time and never had anything crawl out I doubt it is the Diclofenac in the Voltaten Gel that is causing the effect. I have read of other people having similar experences with lemon juice, oil, or vingar.
