Viral Infection

[stamp out loud]

While vacationing in Phuket Thailand over 4 years ago I was bitten on the top of my foot. this resulted in very raw red circular rashes erupting all over my torso, arms and legs. The itch, which fierce, comes in waves. As this happened some time ago, it lies dormant, then erupts each time worse than before. I have been to many tropical disease clinics and seen by countless Dr.'s who have prescribed everything from antihistimenes, antibiotics to steriods, balms, salves and creams...all useless. I have now begun to explore possibilites in the homeopathic, naturopathic and eastern medicines. All medical professionals concurr that this is a virus that has attacked my system and I am at my wits end trying to find some relief from this unbearable itch and the suffering I am currently experiencing. My body is covered in lesions and I am desperate to find a cure. I am now on a diet that is working to cleanse my system and am ingesting flax oil, oil of oregano and a few other natural concoctions to see if this will begin to make a diffence and give me some relief.
I anyone has heard of such a thing as this virus, or can offer some insight or suggestions I would be very interested in your reply.
Thanks so very much.
In agony.

Do you think it could be Molluscum Contagiosum?
