EXCITING UPDATE! We have recently come across a new medical provider who actually believes what is going on, and has said they are happy to work with anybody experiencing these symptoms, including remotely. Please see their information by going to our resource page here and looking for “Lighthouse Complex Care”. We are not affiliated with them, and we do not receive compensation or anything else from them, we just have been impressed with how caring they are.

A reader recently reached out to us with a startling message. We will share the message with some minor editing, ” I have been dealing with these worms that are in my carpet, furniture, clothing, and me. I have been to several doctors in the past fifteen months. I have skin sores all the time that have worms in them, and the worms are in my hair, eyes, nose, and mouth. When I bleed they are in my blood. I feel them penetrating my skin. My blood is thick dark and sticky. I clot very fast sometimes I don’t even bleed when I have a open wound. I’m short of breath and whistle when I breath at times. It seems to feel like a stinging sensation. Please help.” As you might imagine, we were quite startled to read this message and we understand that our reader is truly suffering and concerned about her health.

She sent us a few photographs. The first is of a small, black worm-like organism burrowing into the carpet. The other photograph is of her fingernails, though we aren’t sure what exactly we are supposed to be noticing in this photo:

Unfortunately, despite her reaching out to us for help, there isn’t much comfort we can offer her. Here at All About Worms, we aren’t medical professionals and therefore aren’t licensed to give medical advice of any kind. We know she said that she has already seen a doctor, and since she has seen several we are guessing she hasn’t found them particularly helpful. We encourage her to see an infectious disease specialist rather than a general physician. To find a specialist, we recommend she do an Internet search for “travel infectious diseases doctor (her location or nearest big city).”

Today we responded to a reader’s potentially worm-related health concerns. We can’t offer medical advice, but encourage her to reach out to a specialist.

  1. None of you are crazy. And you are not alone. I don’t think I have much time left. My brain is not my own anymore. I can’t breathe. Severe pain. Lost all friends and keeping my distance from everyone because I believe I am contagious and I can’t get my kids or mom sick. But, unfortunately my mom has started symptoms anyway. I must’ve infected her early on before I knew anything was going on. I’m having a really hard time dealing with this guilt. Which I have for my dogs also. Vet didn’t find anything just like my attempts for help found nothing except being in my head, delusional. My husband gets symptoms but never gets sick or debilitated in any way. We found that is because they use him and pets as intermediate hosts during life cycle, to get to me who is the chosen host here, which is due to my immunocompromised health problems. Friends think I’m on drugs and have cut me out of their lives. My kids believe something has happened but do not understand why I don’t want them around me or the house. This house has been a big contributor to them staying. The mold spores have fueled them and caused secondary infections of fungal, bacterial, and yeast organisms and parasites. Larvae has come through the walls and floors from under the paint that we painted, so we know that larvae was here before we moved in. You can have a yeast overgrowth in your body that causes horrible symptoms. And you won’t suspect it because you may never get an actual yeast infection or thrush, it stays inside the body. I keep getting MRSA and Sepsis. And also many many skin cancers including 3 melanomas in 4 years. I hope I can get a dx so I can help my mom and dogs before I’m gone

  2. I’ve been to see my gp and a dermatologist who then referred me to the mental health team. I suffer with them mainly in my hair and under my nails, my partner has them as do both my dogs. Every day I clean them from surfaces but nothing gets rid of them. Two years I’ve been looking for a way to get rid of them but hit a brick wall every time. I tried the mends just incase it was in my head but they are still there so I’ve stopped the mends from the mental health team I’m totally sane and desperate to get rid of these little white hair type worm, any advice would be so appreciated!

    1. I’m with you guys oh my god I’ve been suffering for 4 years living in central California and the ones are everywhere they cover everything and submit it very sticky substance but tell me as my ears eyes I know and know I can tell them in my throat you need to get some help I need medical attention immediately nobody will believe me

    I’m still suffering from these things and all my friends think I’m crazy. My doctor said it was in my head. But how can it be in my head when the marks are so visible on my body.

    Please if someone has a solution for this

  6. Tammie T,

    Have you found any answers. I have been dealing with this for 2 years and finally found a way to rid them of my body
    My hair, nose, mouth, hand, nails and feet
    I can hopefully help in some way, but I do not have a name for them. The doctors all told me I was fine and a couple wanted me mentally evaluated. It has been very stressful

  7. Oh my God, I was so happy to read this article. I also, I’m dealing with the same problem to be exact as she has described. I’ve been to doctor after doctor to get the same result as it must be all in your head. Even though you have the marks on your skin to prove otherwise. I am desperate to know what these little black bugs are that seem to turn into worms when penetrating the skin. I have them in my scalp nose eyes arms hands legs. It has even deformed my feet. Please, if anybody has any info I am desperate. I have been on all five of the best parasite medicines they seem to help a little but does not fix the problem as the bites and bugs and worms are still visible and biting and pain. These black bugs that are in the carpet I’ve also attacked my dogs my two teacup Chihuahua‘s.Been to the vet and as usual I dead end with no answers.Please help ASAP.

  8. Any way it could be flea larvae? This is what i believe my problem to be and i have the same type of thing going on.

  9. You might want to look at the Nielsen Clinic under .parasites. I like this doctor and he tells us to go to Dr D’Angelo out of Colorado at para Wellness. He test for things like this. many people have parasites and don’t even know it hang in there.
