could have started sooner but my major symptoms started in fall of 2006
I am getting pretty tired of the scalp problems that never leave. The constant itching has left but I still have the sticking together of hair as I try to grow it out. Getting very close to just hacking it off again. I have both fungus looking stuff and long strand stuff or what ever is still going on. Now I am having lower back problems after not having any after back surgery 15 years ago God help me I can not go thru that pain ever again and here I am again.

New here but following avidly.

2006- white "bumps" high on outer thighs
2007- more of same and on chest, and scalp
2008-lymph nodes began to swell, and late 2008, right leg very swollen for 2 days.
August 2009-cat fleas on cats, treated house with insect growth regulators and cats with spot-on cat treatments; two weeks later fleas gone but black specks everywhere and being bitten by something unseen
September 2009- black speck on finger bites and is observed to enter the wound; later emerges as a white globule
November 2009- Hundreds of white worm-like parasites emerging from skin that dissolve when touched and reveal 1-3 (or more) tiny dark brown or black specks. Larger brown/black specks seen all over house and in clothing; observation of /32 of an inch gray and very transparent mite-like parasites on skin that appear to sink down into dermal layer; when touched they resist removal and seem to burrow deeper; occasionally they can be seen just under the skin.
December 2009- Worm-like parasites in eyes, nose, ears, rectal and genital openings, many in scalp. Emergence occurs in warm rooms, precipitated by hot bathing, lack of motion. Emergence began in October at night, at 5-7 day intervals. Emergence frequence increased to every 3 days by late November and began to occur nights and days, and to irregular emergence lasting as many as five days in succession in early December. Most emergence begins at 3:30 pm or near to dusk.

It Was Winter And I Handled A House Plant That Was Dying Of A Black Fungus Like Substance. Soon After Handleing The Sick Plant This Nightmare Began And That Was Six Years Ago. Also I Have Lymes. I Still Feel The Contaminated Soil Has Some Thing To Do With This... Keep Up The Hope.

Hello Jo,

Yes, I remember it well. I had what I thought to be poison oak or ivy on my calves which crept up my thighs until it all scabbed over in September.

It was the first summer in which I did NOT wear shorts in my life. Too disgusting to appear in public in such a state.

I also remember looking at the blue threads coming out of my feet.
I could see them very clearly under the skin in the soles of both feet.

I went to the doctor at least twice until they finally realized this was NOT scabies after treating me unsuccessfully with lindane, etc. Awful, awful toxins I was exposed to to rid myself of this affliction.
Blah, blah, blah. Sorry

I hope this helps.

I think it's in the dirt and on plants. Everytime I get the slighted poke from a plant like a palm frond or rose brush, I get a big bump and a sore there. I also think I have a resistant strain of worms that are in my blood and tissues.
