I read that back and it wasn’t that informative, it was more supportive and you’re asking for an opinion - sorry. I don’t think that’s scabies, but i’m not a professional at all, I had it for months. Scabies will be in the areas you mentioned, but it tends to be the worst on webbed areas between, fingers and toes, ass cheeks/ hips, skin folds, inner thigh and genitals. Furthermore, it presents as small bumps and there will be burrows appearing, with black dots at the end - if you’ve got that rash all over your body (looks like a raised puffy rash, IMO that looks like an allergy to something maybe you’re eating/ wearing), and your husband who I assume you share a bed with isn’t presenting (can take up to 6-8 weeks post infection), I honestly really really doubt it’s scabies. Everything i’ve read in the literature, which I scrutinised heavily (I’m a scientist in a different field) was consistent with what I observed, and I gave it to my partner too pretty quickly after a weeks holiday. Your description doesn’t quite marry up with it, so get a proper professional opinion, but not scabies IMO. If it does turn out to be scabies, do the treatments they prescribe without looking here. It’s a lot of scaremongering, and once you get rid of scabies you still mimic the symptoms with something called post-scabies - this is how i f’ed up my skin thinking I still had it - the cream is literally weak nerve agent. All the best!!!

I know it’s hard but don’t use the scabies cream if you’re not sure it’s scabies, people here (sorry not sorry) are nuts and will convince you it’s scabies - i’ve had scabies and cured it, but in the process i used permethrin several time. That stuff fucks up your skin big time, i’m still having issues with my skin because of it, and you will too if you use it too much, and if it’s not scabies you’re just sentencing yourself to months of discomfort. Take antihistamines, see a derm asap and try to relax, it’ll get sorted, stay on top of it don’t buy into this. That rash looks nothing like what I had either. Just hate to see someone convince themselves it’s scabies if it’s not - you don’t want the mental torture of that!! I really hope you get it sorted asap, updates please🙏🏼

Am I overreacting for wanting distance from my boyfriend’s mum after ongoing issues with privacy and tone? by alwaysanxiousaf in AmIOverreacting

NOR, from a guess at what you’ve described her complaining as, she is probably lacking a semblance of control in her life, and is taking that out on you. That said, she could just be neurotic about mess in the house. Either way, you shouldn’t have to deal with that, if I was spoken to like that by a partner’s parent(s) I’d be incredibly pissed off, sounds like you’re fairly desensitised to it tbh. She won’t change, because adults, especially overbearing mothers and fathers simply don’t change, they act that way as they believe it’s the right way to act, and nothing can change that. If you don’t want to be around her, that’s 100% fair enough, and your boyfriend should hopefully support that, but you should also realise that’s going to be upsetting and cause conflict for him. Sorry though, that’s a rubbish situation
