I used to only get them with tight clothing or when I laid on something with raised surfaces for long periods of time. Now it seems when I goto sleep whatever side I lay on when I wake up I have 40-100 'skin lines/indentations'. They look like the lines you get when your underwear would be too tight, if that makes sense, but there's really no explanation for them. I thought maybe it was my comforter so I sleep on a sheet, STRETCHED COMPLETELY OUT so NO lines will be there, still, I wake up with these lines. It's like something SETTLES inside of me when I sleep/lay for long periods and these lines are the results.
Maybe i'm just crazy.

Hi Itzmajic
I went through that over a year or two ago. I could not figure it out also. I had wondered if my over taxed skin was so wrecked that any little thing would make a red streak crease line. Yet I will still wake up with some small wide ones on my shoulders. Could be a bug traveling under the skin. Do you get what looks like cut marks that scab over after a little bit? That is weird also. I could disturb what ever was causing that by using sea salt but even more so with baking soda. At first I thought the granules I applied would cause the scratch marks that would scab over, but then it would lessen with use and then read people getting the scratch marks all over just from soaking in the tub from sea salt and or baking soda.
Welcome aboard and sorry you have Morgellons that drove you hear. In Light Lynn/TorpedoLynn

My legs will turn red and my feet to sleep when I have my legs crossed. Then stand up and feels like stepping on needles and I don't have diabetes.

I have a spot on my toe that's numb and I don't think I have diabetes at all. Just a little spot on my right big toe. I also get the cuts that scab over. I forgot all about that until you said something because it's only happened once but I also have a permanent line on my skin, well actually it is 3 small lines going in a curve and then the 'cut' appeared. It was long though, probably 3-4 inches on my arm? Weird huh? I haven't got the skin indentations so much anymore, and I take the vinegar, peroxide, baking soda and salt, I use table salt, since I don't have $ for anything really atm and my symptoms have died down since I started eating healthier and drinking less & less soft drinks. They do come out in full force sometimes though, usually if i relapse on drugs they 3 or 4th day it REALLY kicks in and exposure to certain chemicals (Toulene) have caused TREMENDOUS symptom flair-ups. Although, I haven't got anything in my line of vision though, I figure that the way it infects is through hair follicles, maybe? About 2 weeks after I got a tremendous gut pain that lasted 2 weeks or so is when I noticed my hair was 'moving' I don't know really how to explain it but you guys know what I mean, I would move my hair back (I have hair like, for instance, Justin Bieber used to?) and I would move it onto my shoulders instead of like it curled toward my ears and it was like I could feel it start to tighten up and it would end up back in a curl, I have naturally STRAIGHT DARK hair, Indian/Italian mix so NO curls. And also I noticed (still, although less) hair likes to get into my eyes. I'm about ready to just cut it, then my symptoms die down and I think i'm crazy that maybe it's DOP after all. Then here we go again, or I will get something weird come out of my skin, like last week I had something that looked like it was enclased in glass but it was green on the inside, then right beside it (where I have an open lesion) I had something black and thin and kind of sharp pop out, it was like a diamond shape sort of and so thin you could BARELY see it if you held it sideways. After I scratched it out then I knew I wasn't crazy, because it had blood come out of the spot it came up from. Geez, typing all this out makes me sound crazy, and sometimes I think I am when I haven't had a REAL symptom in 3 months, and then the skin lines or the 'biting' or whatever, and I tried using Ground Mustard for the 'biofilm' feel of my skin and I haven't felt my skin this way IN SO LONG, I miss it

I get numbness in fingers and toes, also parts of my face go numb. After years of suffering this nightmare, people just pass it off as another "all in the head" thought.

(for me) when an area is active, the tracks will raise up from the skin in various designs, it only lasts a short time and goes back into the skin.

When I was first coming down with this, I did see a Microbiologist, he examined me (we once worked together). He to was perplexed at what I pointed out to him - under my arm the skin just to the side of my breast you could see criss cross indentations. This Microbiologist examined me from head to toe. He wrote my GP and said I didn't have folliculitis.
I still have the indentations. The scarring on the sides of my face, around the jaw line show deep holes, they are in a pattern. Gosh I remember when all this was starting and I would get up each morning to lines and holes on my face, like it was making a little track.
It's all still there.
