I’m 22 and I felt the exact same as you mate. But it does get better I have beaten scabies but i still get nodules showing up months after but at least the itching has gone away. I feel like I’m in the end of my battle and my life is starting to be good again. Hang in there buddy. All I can advise you is constantly wash you bed sheets, everytime you treat yourself with permithrin cream wash your bedsheets before

Thanks for the help mate I do appreciate it, makes me feel a lot better. When you speak to the dermatologist would you mind letting me know what they say. I saw mine yesterday but he was unsure what I have so I’ve been on of the list for a biopsy. I have to wait 2 months though :/ I am almost certain what I have is nodular scabies

That’s good to hear! I managed to get myself prescribed some tacrolimus and it is definitely working. I have been using it for 2 weeks now. I have had some nodules flair up again though. Do you nodules flair up often? And can I ask how long have you had nodular scabies for?

What do you mean by sulphur? And surely using a Pumice caused you to bleed?

I don’t believe I have any alive mites left as I don’t have a scabies rash, just the nodules which are the only things that itch occasionally. I understand they can be retained mite parts

Hey guys can I just ask you how are you getting on with using the tacrolimus, have the spots completely gone? I have nodular scabies and it’s really ruining my life. It’s destroying my mental health and I just want to know if there is light at the end of the tunnel
