10:28:20 AM | IM A LITTLE LATE WITH THIS ENTRY. I HAVE BEEN IN HEALTHCARE FOR 20 YEARS CURRENTLY RN IN FLORIDA. ALONG THE WAY I BECAME BOMBARDED WITH IRRITATIONS, BITING, AND STINGING SENSATIONS TO MY WHOLE BODY. AFTER TREATING MYSELF MULTIPLE TIMES FOR SCABIES THEN TAKING IVERMECTIN FREQUENTLY THEN TRYING MANY OTHER THINGS WITHOUT SOLVING MY OWN PROBLEM. I BEGAN TO QUESTION WHAT I WAS DEALING WITH. I HAD PREVIOUSLY TREATED MANY PATIENTS FOR RASHES SOME UNEXPLAINED AND ONE WHO TOLD ME SHE HAD MORGELLONS SO I LOOKED THAT UP. I BOUGHT A MICROSCOPE AND BEGAN TO LOOK AT EVERYTHING. CALLED MY COMPANIES AND TOLD THEM I HAD TO STOP WORK BECAUSE MY RASH WAS FULL BODY INCLUDING FACE AND HEAD. TOO DIFFICULT TO DISGUISE ANYMORE AND AFRAID OF BEING CONTAGIOUS TO SO MANY OTHERS. MY COMPANY TOLD IT SOUNDED AS IF THEY COULD HAVE IT FALL BACK ON WORKERS COMP SOMETHING I HAD NOT THOUGHT OF. THE REALLY HORRIBLE PROCESS BEGAN AND LASTED 2 MONTHS OF DOCTORS WHEN FINALLY THE ULTIMATE INSULT CAME, DX: DELUSIONAL PARASITOSIS, AS I WAS ACCOMPANIED TO MY APPOINTMENT BY A WORKERS COMP NURSE CASE MANAGER (my third) SHE QUICKLY ASKED THE INFECTIOUS DISEASE MD FOR PAPERWORK STATING I COULD BE RELEASED TO GO TO WORK CLEARED OF ANY CONTAGIOUS ASPECT. SHE SEEMED THRILLED WITH HER VICTORY (SHE ALSO CARRIED A FULL BODY RASH BUT HAD BEEN DEFINED AS SOMETHING ELSE). WHERE HAS THE REASONABILITY GONE? I WAS TREATED LIKE AN INMATE. WHERE IS THE JUSTICE ??? IF THE NURSE WHO POSTED ON THIS WEBSITE IS STILL AOUND PLEASE CONTACT ME AT PURLYGATE@GMAIL.COM PLEASE. I AM HEARING TOO MANY NURSES AND OTHER HEALTHCARE PERSONNEL BEING AFFECTED. WE MAY ALSO BE ADDING TO THE PROBLEM. SORRY.
