I honestly never saw the nematode that was between my toes (broke open the skin it was so large). I could only see the top of these critters. However these worms were round, very large (about a quarter inch across). I thought whatever it was fed smaller critters which seemed to spread out from it. I used some black cancer salve and over time I got whatever it was out. Very, very painful too as when I treated it I had a hard time walking. Sometimes I thought it was the guinea worm type nematodes that Harvey described in some of his patients. It is all so hard to know exactly what any of it is without someone well trained in this field to look at these creatures when we have fresh specimens. This is why I think most of us would have a better chance of having what we see identified if we lived in a third world country like Brazil.

I had something else in my leg which was the weirdest thing I have seen. I uncovered this parasite which went into the bone. It had about five or six long tubes attached together at the bottom, each of which would have something come out of it which looked like egg shapes, very small but visible. Maybe it was carrying larvae. The parasite and egg shapes looked light beige in color. Very, very strange...I could not kill this despite using the salves. Eventually I let it heal over. I have not noticed any activity since. So who knows? Anytime the skin opened like this there was a light black line which seemed to accompany the uncovered parasites. I also used to see black lines when I was first sick close to the surface of the skin on the trunk.

Whatever this is does seem to need very strong treatment to control it. I do believe the internal herbal treatments I am using are helping to reduce symptoms of emerging lesions. How long these herbs will continue to help I don't know. I am very glad though to have found them as I believe that day by day I am losing more of these unwanted guests.
